BTS has reached another impressive milestone in their career. Their chartbuster DOPE, released in 2015, has now surpassed 800 million views on YouTube. This marks the group’s 9th music video to do so. According to the latest update, as of January 1, 2025, 10:40 a.m. KST, the music video for DOPE surpassed an impressive 800 million views on YouTube. 

To date, the music video has been viewed 800,033,312 times and liked 9.3 million times.

In addition, this is the group's 9th music video to surpass 800 million views. 

Their previous hits such as DNA, IDOL, Dynamite, Butter, Fake Love, Boy With Luv, Blood Sweat & Tears, MIC Drop (Steve Aoki Remix), have all surpassed the number on YouTube. In 2015, DOPE was released as the fifth track and second single for their third mini album The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Pt.1. 

It also appeared on CD 1 of their first compilation album The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever. The song also has a Japanese version featured on their second Japanese studio album Youth. The music video for DOPE became the first from BTS's discography to reach 1 million likes.

On October 25, 2016, it was the group's first music video to surpass 100 million views. The song also ranked high on global music charts. The song peaked at No. 3 on Billboard's World Digital Singles chart . In terms of work, BTS's last album, Proof, was released in 2022. They have not made a comeback since then due to member enlistment. 

Currently, SUGA, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook are completing their mandatory military service. They are scheduled to be discharged in June. On the other hand, Jin and J-Hope have returned home after completing their 18-month military service. The group is now expected to make a comeback after June. They are also rumored to be going on a world tour in 2026.
