After earning their first No. 1 on World Digital Songs, EXO have another accomplishment to celebrate for their latest album Ex’act.
The LP’s two lead singles, “Monster” and “Lucky One” end up as the first and second top-viewed K-pop videos on YouTube for June 2016. According to the platform, the two singles were both the most-viewed K-pop clips in both America and around the world. As of press time, “Monster” has earned more than 36 million views while “Lucky One” boasts more than 16 million.
