BTS's "Butter" music video has surpassed 1.1 billion views.

The music video for BTS's digital single "Butter," released in May 2021, exceeded 1.1 billion YouTube views at 2 a.m. on the 27th. It is the group's seventh work to reach 1.1 billion views following "Dynamite," "Boy With Luv (Feat. Halsey)," "DNA," "MIC Drop (Steve Aoki Remix)," "FAKE LOVE," and "IDOL."

The music video features striking contrasts with alternating black-and-white and color scenes, suits and sportswear, grand stages and gymnasiums. The seven members appear with charismatic expressions, delivering flexible yet powerful choreography that conveys pleasant energy. Point moves such as brushing back hair, hand-kiss performances, and upbeat footwork steps add to the viewing pleasure. Upon release, the video surpassed 10 million views in just 13 minutes and broke 100 million views within 21 hours, setting a K-pop record for the fastest time to reach 100 million views.

"Butter" is an addictive dance pop track characterized by a bass line that captures the ear from the intro and refreshing synthesizer sounds. It is BTS's second English song following "Dynamite," released in August 2020. Debuting at No. 1 on Billboard's main song chart, the Hot 100, on June 5, 2021, it marked their tenth overall number-one hit and remained on the charts for a total of 20 weeks.

Meanwhile, BTS holds numerous music videos with over 1 billion views for mega-hit songs including "Dynamite" (2.1 billion views), "Boy With Luv (Feat. Halsey)" (1.9 billion views), "DNA" (1.6 billion views), "MIC Drop (Steve Aoki Remix)" (1.5 billion views), "FAKE LOVE," "IDOL" (1.3 billion views each), and "Blood Sweat & Tears."
