K-pop group BigBang's 'Fantastic Baby' draws more than 100 million hits on YouTube

The K-pop group BigBang‘s music video "Fantastic Baby" has surpassed the 100 million viewers mark on YouTube since its release about two years ago, the group’s management agency in Seoul said.

The 2012 single had some 100,003,000 views on YouTube as of 1:40 p.m. Thursday, according to YG Entertainment.

It is the fourth South Korean music video to exceed the 100 million viewers mark on the global video-sharing website, after Psy's "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman,“ and Girls' Generation's "Gee," and the first by a boy band.

BigBang plans to release a new album this summer, entertainment industry sources said.
