Choi Yu-ri and Jinyoung's Duet Resurfaces—But Did It Pass 30 Million Views?

A duet uploaded in late May was being shared again on October 31: Choi Yu-ri singing 'When I Stop Thinking' with GOT7 singer-actor Park Jinyoung. One hook is an enormous view-count claim; another is their vocal pairing. The two deserve different standards of verification.

At 6:20 p.m. KST on October 31, a TheQoo user wrote that the video had passed 30 million views five months after upload and attributed fresh interest to Jinyoung's drama exposure. A June 11 News1 report independently documents the May 29 duet and the renewed interest in Choi Yu-ri's 2023 song.

The story combines a pre-existing song newly heard as a duet with the appeal of a growing video. But the alleged 400,000–500,000 extra views a day and the claim that drama exposure caused it are the poster's unverified interpretation, not audited YouTube analytics.

The observed Korean reaction is the repost author's excitement about perceived growth. The page displayed 712 views and 33 comments, but their text was unavailable. A separate public listener review praised the blend of the two voices; that is one listener's opinion, not a representative fandom poll.

'When I Stop Thinking' was originally released by Choi Yu-ri in November 2023. The May 2026 duet brought renewed attention, with June coverage discussing their harmony and July coverage her gratitude. October 31 was a renewed-sharing moment, not a new release date.

Verified: News1 reported the duet was posted May 29, 2026 on Choi Yu-ri's series. A July 11 report described her saying it had passed five million views. On October 31 a forum poster claimed over 30 million, while SocialCounts displayed 29,536,330. Differences in refresh time and data sources are unresolved; the official YouTube 30-million milestone is not independently established.

The live YouTube count, daily growth and uploader details still require direct comparison on the platform. Establishing a causal effect from the drama also needs evidence. Actual comments would help identify what listeners liked without speculation.
