Boombayah is the debut single by South Korean group BLACKPINK, released in 2016 as part of Square One, and it quickly became one of the group's signature high-energy tracks. Its driving dance beat and chant-like hook made it a favourite for short-form edits, dance challenges and reaction videos, where only a few seconds are needed to set the mood. On soundboards, the opening burst is often lifted on its own because it is instantly recognisable, even without the full song, and it still carries the same confident, party-ready attitude.
