Guinness World Records mentions LISA and BLACKPINK as the Kpop Acts who made history this year

The Guinness World Records have commemorated the most iconic moments of 2023 with a list of some of the records that marked impressive milestones during each month of the year. With mentions ranging from the world's oldest people, premature babies defying the odds, to epic stunts and impressive feats achieved in music. It was obvious that K-pop would have a well-deserved place after its enormous growth globally, with Lalisa Manobal (known as Lisa) and Blackpink being the acts honored by South Korea.

In particular, the Guinness World Records mentioned the following:

"2023 was a huge year for K-pop, kicking off with three records being set by BLACKPINK’s LISA in January. She became the First Solo K-pop winner at the MTV Video Music Awards and the First Solo K-pop winner at the MTV Europe Music Awards, as well as earning the record for Most Followers on Instagram for a K-pop Artist".

"But this was just the beginning of record-breaking activities in the K-pop world this year, with BLACKPINK becoming the most streamed female group on Spotify and then again BLACKPINK’s Lisa making history when “LALISA” became the First K-pop track by a Solo Artist to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify".
