(From K-POP News)
BLACKPINK, who uploaded the MV for their comeback title song "DDU-DU DDU-DU" on YouTube on June 16, succeeded in making a dash of more views.
As soon as it debuted, it swept the number one spot on real-time and daily music charts in Korea, and the MV was played 10 million times in 6 hours, 20 million times in 13 hours, and 30 million times in 23 hours. , reached 40 million times after 27 hours. With a speed approaching BTS's "fakelove", it was naturally the shortest record for a K-pop girl group.
US Billboard is also surprised by this. It was reported that it entered the ``Top 10 views in 24 hours after the release of the music video (24-hour debut)'' in the United States, and was ranked 4th in history among artists all over the world.
With BLACKPINK making a comeback, did any of the fans anticipate this? "I'm honestly surprised by this."
When I first listened to "DDU-DU DDU-DU", I sensed the exoticism that could be found in Southeast Asia. And I got worried.
I thought that if such a local color appeared, it would lose its penetration power in a world sense.
In other words, they saw that music like "as if it's your last" had to be heavily influenced by Western influences.
However, it seems that the different style has paid off.
In Southeast Asia, it may be that the number of views is increasing with a big push, and on the contrary, it is showing the penetration of the world while creating a large driving force.
Regarding the spread of popularity in the United States, I feel that the support of the BTS Army is large. Just like my generation was exposed to the music of the Beatles and became curious about the Rolling Stones.
K-POP, which is dance music, has female fans at its core. The reason why it has achieved its current worldwide popularity is that although the number of female fans who love K-pop dance is small, they repeatedly hold flash mobs on a global scale, making connections from the existence of dots and building a strong network. Because I succeeded in creating it.
The network now has global artists like BTS.
However, they should continue to be familiar with the music of same-sex girls as well as boys' BTS. There will be some ARMYs who want to cover BLACKPINK's dance to their heart's content.
Until recently, I had thought that TWICE would be the one to come to America and take the place of BTS.
It seems that BLACKPINK regained the points stolen by TWICE this time, and returned to a 50/50 state.
If MOMOLAND joins here, the girl group's competition for the "American market" will be interesting...!
