Millions of views for NZ-filmed music videos

The second New Zealand-filmed music video in a week has reached more than a million views on YouTube.

Korean pop star Taeyon released her first solo single, I on Wednesday and already the video, which features shots of the New Zealand countryside as well as scenes at Kingsland bar The Portland, has had nearly four million views.

This follows the Aotearoa-based video for American rockers Imagine Dragons' Roots reaching almost one and a half million views a week after being released.

Taeyon, real name Kim Tae-yeon, got her start in the K-pop girls group, Girls' Generation and is making her transition to becoming a solo artist.

Her new album I - The 1st Mini Album is currently at the top of New Zealand's iTunes album chart.
