Guinness World RecordsIt will come as no surprise to the BTS Army to learn the video for the Korean megastars' new English single Butter is setting new records.
The new single broke the record for the most viewers for the premiere of a video on YouTube with 3.9 million concurrent viewers for its premiere on May 21. It also set a record for most YouTube views within 24 hours of release. Butter hit 108.2 million views during that time frame, surpassing the group's own 101.1 million view record for Dynamite.

Want to know how many views it had in its first hour alone? Oh, you know, almost 19 million. About the same as the entire country of Chile watching the video in the first hour. No big deal.
And that's just the start. According to Pop Base, it surpassed 10 million views in just 13 minutes -- a record.
