BTS has cracked YouTube's record for the highest number of viewers for a video's premiere. The K-Pop group's first English song Dynamite garnered 3 million live viewers, twice the audience count of the second-highest premiere ever, according to Variety Friday.

Dynamite is also on track to break the record of most views in the first 24 hours of a music video debut on YouTube -- as of 3:35 p.m. PT on Friday, the video was sitting at more than 83 million views, 19 hours after premiering. The current record holder is K-Pop group Blackpink with How You Like That, which got 86.3 million views in the first 24 hours.

It might take a little longer to crack the all-time most viewed music videos record, however, which is currently held by Despacito, with 6.9 billion views.
