Three have over a billion total views!

K-Pop groups that debut under one of the “Big Four” companies in the industry — SM EntertainmentJYP EntertainmentYG Entertainment, and BigHit Music — automatically get a boost in their marketing and budget and therefore tend to reach a wider audience than those who may be just as talented but debut under a smaller label.
