BLACKPINK has achieved yet another impressive milestone with their “WHISTLE” MV! The music video, which was released back in 2016, has finally reached 900 million views on YouTube!
BLACKPINK’s ‘WHISTLE’ MV Hits 900 Million Views
On August 22 at around 1:59 p.m. KST, the music video for their debut track “WHISTLE” officially surpassed 900 million views on YouTube. This makes it the seventh BLACKPINK music video to reach this milestone, joining the ranks of their other iconic hits like “DDU-DU DDU-DU,” “Kill This Love,” “BOOMBAYAH,” “As If It’s Your Last,” “How You Like That,” and “Ice Cream.”
Originally released on August 8, 2016, at 8 p.m. KST, “WHISTLE” has taken just over eight years and 13 days to achieve this incredible feat. The track was also one of the two debut singles from BLACKPINK’s debut single album ‘Square One’, which quickly catapulted the group to global fame. The song’s catchy beat, unique sound, and visually stunning music video have continued to capture the hearts of fans worldwide, proving BLACKPINK’s enduring popularity.
This milestone comes at an exciting time for BLINKs, as they eagerly await the group’s next big move. YG Entertainment founder Yang Hyun Suk recently confirmed in a special announcement video that BLACKPINK will be making a highly anticipated comeback in 2025. He also revealed that the group will be embarking on a new world tour, adding to the excitement surrounding their return.
This news is particularly thrilling given that it has been two years since BLACKPINK released their last album ‘PINK VENOM’ in 2022. Since then, the members—Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa—have also been focusing on their solo ventures and recently wrapped up their successful ‘BORN PINK World Tour’.
With their upcoming comeback and world tour, BLACKPINK is set to continue their reign as one of the top girl groups in the world, and fans are eagerly awaiting what they have in store.
