KATSEYE has reached another major YouTube achievement with “Animal.” The music video surpassed 100 million views on September 16, 2026, according to HYBE x Geffen Records, becoming the girl group’s fastest video to reach the milestone. It took 54 days to reach the record-breaking mark, and “Animal” is now KATSEYE’s seventh music video to surpass 100 million views.
The track served as a pre-release track from the group’s third EP, Wild, alongside its dance-pop counterpart single “Pinky Up.” Meanwhile, “Animal” has spent seven weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, climbing three positions to #27 on the chart dated September 19. The track peaked at #24, marking the girl group’s highest position on the chart. Similarly, the song has spent seven weeks on the U.K. Official Singles Top 100, where it currently ranks #18 after peaking at #12.
The latest milestone arrives as KATSEYE continues their international touring run. The (temporary quartet) is set to finish the European leg of The WildWorld Tour in Copenhagen, Denmark, on September 17. Then, a North American leg of their tour will begin next month in Miami. After that, KATSEYE will travel to 18 additional cities across the region, including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.
