The video for "Gentleman," the K-Pop star's follow-up to his 2012 international hit "Gangnam Style," broke the Youtube record for most views in a single day, hitting 38 million views on April 14 of this year, according to Google's recently-released data.

 

That is eight more than the previous record-holder - the "Kony 2012" video made by Invisible Children meant to raise awareness¹ about Lord's Resistant² Army leader Joseph Kony.

 

Psy's "Gentleman" video also hit 215 million just 10 days after it dropped on April 13. It took "Gangnam Style" more than a month to hit 100 million views.

 

Google revealed last week that "Gangnam Style", which is the most-viewed video of all time, gained so many hits that the web giant had to update Youtube's views counter.
