BLACKPINK Breaks YouTube Records Again as New Song "JUMP" Hits 1 Million Likes in Just 1 Hour

(

)

BLACKPINK has done it again. Their new music video JUMP reached 1 million likes on YouTube in just 1 hour and 3 minutes, making it the 4th fastest female K-pop MV to hit this milestone. The group now holds all top spots for this record, proving their massive global fanbase is stronger than ever.

The song, released on July 11, 2025, is their first group comeback in nearly three years. It debuted live during their DEADLINE World Tour in Goyang, South Korea. The music video, co-produced by Diplo and directed by Dave Meyers, features bold visuals and a hardstyle beat, a new sound for the group.

Fans noticed the likes were climbing faster than the views, with 1 million likes at under 400,000 views at one point. YouTube later explained this was part of their standard verification process to filter fake plays. Despite this, the video quickly soared past 9.3 million views and 1.8 million likes in just hours.

One fan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote:

“i think blackpink are genuinely the only kpop artists who perform consistently well on youtube despite all the rule changes and reforms, its funny how people still call them inorganic.”

Another fan celebrated:

“blackpink is so famous that they broke youtube.”

  • How You Like That โ€“ 1 hour 13 minutes

JUMP outperformed their previous hit Pink Venom, which took 1 hour and 41 minutes to reach the same milestone. Fans were shocked by the speed, with one saying:

“YOU GUYS JUMP HIT 1M LIKES IN JUST AN HOUR??? PINK VENOM TOOK 1H 41Mโ€ฆ THIS IS ACTUALLY INSANE OMGGGG.”

Mixed Reactions from Korean Netizens

While international fans are loving JUMP, some Korean netizens criticized the song after its live debut at the DEADLINE Tour. Many called it a “B-class” track, saying it didnโ€™t feel like a BLACKPINK song.

“Who gave BLACKPINK a song like this? Itโ€™s so bad.”
“Itโ€™s so bad itโ€™s hilariousโ€ฆ This is seriously a mess.”
“The song is fun, yeah, but it doesnโ€™t feel like a BLACKPINK trackโ€ฆ”

Others defended the group, saying the official release might change opinions. The songโ€™s full studio version is now available, and fans are waiting to see if the criticism fades.
