K-pop phenomenon Blackpink has collected several Guinness World Records titles with its new song "How You Like That," according to the world records organization Wednesday (local time).

Released on June 26, the song and its music video created a buzz around the world, garnering 86.3 million views on YouTube on the first day.

The titles the quartet's music video won are "Most viewed YouTube video in 24 hours," "Most viewed music video on YouTube in 24 hours" and "Most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours by a K-pop group."

The records surpass previous record holder BTS, which won the titles with its music video "Boy With Luv" in April 2019.

Blackpink ― Jisoo, Jennie, Rose and Lisa ― had a grand premiere of the song on the day of its release through YouTube live streaming.

Guinness World Records revealed that the streaming's viewer count reached 1.66 million. This has set another two records for the group for "Most viewers for the premiere of a video on YouTube" and "Most viewers for the premiere of a music video on YouTube."

Starting with the pre-release track "How You Like That," the group is gearing up for the release of its first studio album set for September.
