BLACKPINK's dance performance video for How You Like That surpassed two billion views on YouTube on May 27, 2026 at approximately 2:32 p.m. KST, becoming the first K-pop choreography video ever to reach the milestone,according to Soompi.

The milestone

Originally uploaded on July 6, 2020, the dance performance reached two billion views in just over five years, 10 months and 20 days,per Pannchoa. The clip is the third upload on BLACKPINK's official YouTube channel to clear the two-billion mark, following the official music videos for DDU-DU DDU-DU and Kill This Love. Dance-practice or choreography videos rarely reach this tier on YouTube, where official music videos typically draw the bulk of long-tail traffic.

About the song

How You Like That was released as a pre-release single from BLACKPINK's first full-length studio album The Album. The performance video features all four members - Jisoo, Jennie, Rose and Lisa - executing the song's choreography against a simple pink backdrop, a stripped-back format that became a reference clip for dance-cover groups worldwide.

What's next for the group

BLACKPINK's Deadline World Tour, billed as the group's first all-stadium tour, ran from July 5, 2025 at Goyang Stadium in South Korea through January 26, 2026 at Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong. The group's third EP, also titled Deadline, is scheduled for release on February 27, 2026, marking the end of a more than three-year gap since their last full release.

Abu Dhabi connection

BLACKPINK previously performed at Etihad Park on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi on January 28, 2023 as part of their earlier Born Pink World Tour. That show sold 22,209 tickets and grossed roughly $3.12 million,per agency figures published by Katch International.Local review covered the date at the time. No UAE date has been announced for the current Deadline cycle.
