"A duck"
The music video "One Little Duck" was uploaded to YouTube in August 2019 and quickly attracted millions of views thanks to its colorful 3D animation and cheerful, catchy melody.
The video depicts a mother duck leading her ducklings across a pond, closely following the familiar lyrics of a childhood song.

The product received much positive feedback from the audience, especially families with young children. Many parents even jokingly called it the "mealtime song" for Vietnamese children due to its widespread popularity.
By June 2024, the music video officially reached 1 billion views, becoming the first Vietnamese music video to achieve this milestone on YouTube.
Before disappearing from the Heo Con children's channel on July 14, 2025, the video still recorded over 1 million views per day and garnered approximately 2.2 million likes.
It is estimated that a video with 1 billion views in the Vietnamese market could generate approximately 2-3 billion VND in revenue from the YouTube platform.
"Bong bong bang bang"
The music video "Bong Bong Bang Bang" by the group 365 was released on YouTube on June 27, 2016, and quickly became one of the standout music products in Vpop with hundreds of millions of views.
However, on February 9, 2026, many internet users were surprised to discover that the music video was no longer available on YouTube. When accessing the old link that had previously recorded over 630 million views, users only received the message "video unavailable".
With 600 million views, the music video "Bong Bong Bang Bang" is estimated to generate revenue of approximately 1.2 billion to 1.8 billion VND. (Image cropped from the music video)
The reason is believed to be that the YouTube channel that uploaded the original version, named 365daband, has ceased operation, resulting in all videos on the channel being inaccessible.
Regarding the incident, musician Only C - the songwriter and producer of the song - stated that Ngo Thanh Van's company has ceased operations, so there is no longer anyone managing her YouTube channel.
With 600 million views, the music video "Bong Bong Bang Bang" is estimated to have generated billions of VND in revenue.
"Wrong person, wrong time"
Singer Thanh Hung Idol was very upset when his lyric video "Wrong Person, Wrong Time" was removed from YouTube in 2019. Released in January 2018, the song had reached 150 million views, a milestone not easily achieved by a young artist.
Thanh Hung Idol shared that initially he didn't know much about YouTube, so when a channel arbitrarily created lyrics for a song and posted them without permission, he could have logically asked someone to take them down.

However, this clip received a lot of attention, gaining millions of new views every day at that time, so he decided to keep it.
However, when the music video reached 150 million views, the channel that uploaded it was deleted, causing the singer to lose this huge milestone for the product.
A series of music videos by Binz, Soobin, and Rhymastic.
On the evening of October 28, 2025, a series of music videos by Binz, SOOBIN, and Rhymastic, such as "Krazy," "They Said," "Luật anh," and "SS Swag," which had previously garnered tens of millions of views, unexpectedly disappeared from YouTube.
SS Label stated that the removal was part of a plan to review and adjust its content catalog, aiming to better align with the cultural direction of the new era.
Previously, these products attracted significant attention due to their distinctive musical style, but also sparked controversy because some lyrics were deemed sensitive and suggestive. These details led to the artists' music videos receiving mixed reactions from the music community.
