The music video, which won the Music Video of 2018 at the E! People's Choice Awards, grabs the eyes with its impressive color palette and reimagined images capturing traditional Korean culture.

With the feat, BTS now has six music videos that have reached 600 million views, with the others being "MIC Drop," "DNA," "Fire," "Fake Love" and "Boy With Luv," a milestone that no other K-pop artist has achieved. "DNA," meanwhile, is the most viewed of the septet's music videos, hitting 900 million YouTube views last week.

BTS is currently preparing to release a new album titled "Map of the Soul: 7" on Feb. 21. (Yonhap)
