TWICE’s “Breakthrough,” “Happy Happy” Make Global YouTube Videos Chart Despite Late Week Arrival

The videos needed only three days to make this week’s chart.

They may not have launched until the fifth day of the June 7-13 tracking period, but the music videos for TWICE’s Japanese singles “Breakthrough” and “Happy Happy” both generated ample interest on YouTube.

They generated enough interest, in fact, to make the 100-track Global YouTube Music Videos Chart.

Credited with 8.23 million tracking week views, “Breakthrough” starts at #65 on this week’s chart. “Happy Happy” earns #97 with 6.38 million views.

In addition to the new videos, TWICE is charting at #89 with previously released Korean hit “Fancy” (6.73 million new views this week).

— Thanks to the popularity of its full suite of uploads, the group is #76 on this week’s Global YouTube Artists Chart. TWICE received 39.4 million total YouTube streams during the tracking week.
