Girl Group Black Pink and Lady Gaga's collaborative song'Sour Candy' ranked first on the global YouTube song chart.
According to the latest chart released by YouTube on the 7th,'Sour Candy' reached the top of 'Global YouTube Song Top 100'.
This was achieved without a music video, and the foreign media appreciated surprise by saying, "It is clear that 'Sour Candy' ranked first with only audio and video."
This is especially noteworthy as streaming platforms such as YouTube and Spotify have become the mainstream that led the changes in the popular music distribution and consumption market.
In fact, as a result of researching the'K-Contents US market consumer trend' by the Korea Creative Content Agency last year, YouTube (44.2%) and Spotify (27.4%) were selected as the main channels for listening to music.
Black Pink, which has 18 Billion View contents, including 'DDU-DU DDU-DU' music video, which has surpassed 1.1 billion views, is showing a remarkable growth on YouTube as well as world music charts, and is rewriting the history of K-pop girl group.
