The group's international influence grew with "DDU-DU DDU-DU" (2018), the first song by a Korean female group to enter the UK Singles Chart and earn RIAA certification. Its music video became the first by a Korean group to surpass one and two billion views on YouTube and remains the most-viewed by a Korean group. Their videos for "Kill This Love" (2019) and "How You Like That" (2020) also set records for the most views within the first 24 hours of release, with "How You Like That" breaking five Guinness World Records.

BLACKPINK is the highest-charting female Korean act on the US Billboard Hot 100, reaching number 13 with "Ice Cream" (2020), and the US Billboard 200, where they peaked at number one with Born Pink (2022).
