Recently, the BLACKPINK has made people stir when introducing a completely new project, with the official name Around The World and the appearance of many countries in the teaser. Some predictions that BLACKPINK will hold an epic global concert online, so fans are extremely excited.
That joy was extended again when the YG girl group's achievements were raised again when BLACKPINK's song "Ice Cream" has surpassed 200 million streams on an international platform.
Specifically, on November 24, "Ice Cream" has exceeded 200 million streams on an international platform, making fans very excited. The combination of the BLACKPINK and US-UK singer Selena was officially released on August 28, so Ice Cream took nearly 3 months for this achievement. In the first full album called "THE ALBUM", "Ice Cream" fulfills the task of the second product "paving the way" for their official comeback in 2020, bringing the group many great records.
With BLACKPINK's Ice Cream surpassing 200 million streams on an international platform, the official group has a total of 7 products achieving this honored title. The previous songs that BlackPink achieved this stream were "How You Like That", "Kill This Love", "Kiss and Makeup", "DDU-DU DDU-DU", "As If It's Your Last" and "BOOMBAYAH".
This number 7 also officially helped BLACKPINK break the record of the Little Mix group, becoming the girl group with the most songs reaching 200 million streams on an international platform. Little Mix held this previous record with 6 songs.
