BLACKPINK's Rosé has shared the interesting story behind her new song! On October 18, she released her single “APT. (ROSÉ & Bruno Mars)” along with a fun music video. This track is part of her first solo album, rosie, which is set to drop on December 6.

In a recent interview with Vogue, Rosé revealed that the song is inspired by her favorite Korean drinking game called “Apartment.” She said, “I remember the moment I was returning home from the studio. I wondered if it was okay that I wrote a song about a drinking game.” At first, she felt unsure about it and even asked her team to delete the song from her phone. However, her team loved it and couldn’t get enough of “APT. (ROSÉ & Bruno Mars).”

Rosé explained how the song came to be, saying, “The apartment game is one I really enjoy; it’s simple yet fun and perfect for lifting the mood.” She shared a memorable night in the studio when she taught her staff how to play the game. “They had so much fun, and that led to the beginning of this song. Bruno Mars joined in, and that's how the track was completed.”

What makes this song even more exciting is the amazing collaboration with Bruno Mars. He not only co-wrote and performed on the track but also appeared in the music video, creating a lot of buzz among fans.

Rosé’s upcoming album, rosie, will feature 12 tracks, all of which she helped write and compose, sharing her personal and heartfelt stories. Since debuting in 2016 as BLACKPINK's main vocalist, Rosé has established herself as a major K-pop star, achieving incredible success both in Korea and internationally.

Reflecting on her new song and the journey it took to create it, Rosé shared, “I can’t believe I made a song about drinking games, but it’s a part of who I am and my experiences. I hope people enjoy it and have fun while listening.” Fans are eagerly waiting for her album release, where they can hear more of her unique style and stories!

Park Bo Gum and Go Youn Jung’s unexpected meeting from five years ago is making waves again online!

As Netflix’s When Life Gives You Tangerines and tvN’s Resident Playbook continue to rise in popularity, fans are rediscovering a hidden gem from the past — a music video where Park Bo Gum and a rookie Go Youn Jung played a couple.

On the April 18 episode of KBS 2TV’s The Seasons – Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile, legendary singer Lee Seung Chul appeared and showed his close bond with Bo Gum, warmly introducing himself as “Bo Gum’s hyung, Seung Chul.”

While chatting with Bo Gum, Lee Seung Chul shared, “I’ve been pulling all-nighters watching When Life Gives You Tangerines. I even copied Gwan Sik’s hairstyle!”

He went on to praise Bo Gum, saying, “Bo Gum once appeared in my music video. I was so thankful I promised him a meal. I’ve met many people over the past 40 years, but Bo Gum is truly different. He’s a blessing.”

The song he was referring to was “I Will Give You All”, which was part of his single album and also an OST for the webtoon The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor.

In the music video, Park Bo Gum starred as the male lead — and the female lead was none other than a then-rookie Go Youn Jung.

After the episode aired, fans quickly rushed to find the music video, and it started gaining attention again.

Viewers were shocked to realize the actress beside Bo Gum was Go Youn Jung, now widely recognized for her role as Oh Eun Young in Resident Playbook.

Comments began flooding the video on platforms like 1theK and Kakao Page, with people saying:

• “I came back after watching Bo Gum sing — wait, that’s Go Youn Jung?!”
• “I saw this after watching his talk show!”
• “Didn’t know who the female lead was before, but she’s a total star now.”
• “Their visuals together? Unreal.”
• “Why am I only seeing this now?”
• “Please let them reunite in a drama!”
• “This duo was ahead of its time.”

With fans begging for a future drama project featuring the two, many are now hoping that this newly resurfaced video could lead to a real on-screen reunion.
