The 2012 hit song by South Korean musician Psy that became the first YouTube video to reach 1 billion views is 'Gangnam Style.'

'Gangnam Style' was released on July 15, 2012, and quickly became an international sensation, thanks in part to its catchy tune and quirky music video featuring Psy's signature horse-riding dance. By December of that same year, the video had surpassed 1 billion views on YouTube, making it the first video in the platform's history to do so.
