KUALA LUMPUR, March 19 — K-pop band Blackpink member Rosé’s debut solo single On The Ground has set a new record for the most views on YouTube in 24 hours.

It garnered 41.60 million views in the first 24 hours of its release on March 12 beating the previous record set by the music video for singer Psy’s hit song Gangnam Style in 2012, which was viewed by 36 million in the first 24 hours.
