BTS’s ‘Dynamite’
BTS hit a new career high as the music video for ‘Dynamite’ crossed 2 billion views, marking the first time one of the group’s videos has reached the threshold, according to an official announcement. The clip added its latest 100 million views in roughly nine months after touching 1.9 billion late last year, spotlighting sustained replay power five years after release.
The turning point of the record
According to JoongAngDaily, as the act’s first full‑English single, ‘Dynamite’ became the first song by a Korean artist to top the Billboard Hot 100, a defining breakthrough that widened K‑pop’s footprint on the main U.S. singles chart. The upbeat disco‑pop cut paired an addictive rhythm with an effervescent on‑screen concept, helping cement its standing as a signature entry in the group’s catalog.
Momentum across platforms
The track surpassed 2 billion streams on Spotify earlier this year, a first for a single song by a Korean artist, reinforcing enduring global demand. It also placed No. 34 on Apple Music’s global most‑played list of the past decade, with ‘Butter’ joining as the group’s companion entry on the tally.
Fans celebrate
The BTS Army took to social media to celebrate the band hitting the milestone by getting ‘#BTSDynamite’ trending around the globe.
What the video captures
The visual leans into bright palettes and choreography‑forward staging, balancing relaxed moments with energized group formations that amplify the song’s feel‑good spark. Mentioned once as requested: its long‑tail traction on YouTube underscores how vibrant production and performance continue to draw new viewers over time.
