K-pop superstars BTS have unveiled their new summer banger "Butter", which smashed the YouTube premiere record.
BTS have unveiled their new anthem "Butter", which follows last month's "Film out" single and marks the group's second English release following last year's "Dynamite".
Unsurprisingly, the premiere for the new music video saw BTS break the YouTube premiere record for the most viewers. Forbes reports the video has approximately 3.89 million viewers during the premiere (YouTube is yet to release the official number).
They previouslly broke the YouTube premiere record last summer with "Dynamite", which had over three million live viewers.
BTS' "Butter" single is out now.
