Rosé 'changes her old ways', 'kicks out' BLINKs, gives special privileges to her own fandom

After 4 months since officially signing a solo contract with THE BLACK LABEL and more than 1 month joining the American record label Atlantic Records, on October 18, Rosé (BLACKPINK) officially released her first solo comeback product called APT.

In particular, this is also the first international collaboration project of BLACKPINK member with world-famous artist Bruno Mars. As an English product but cleverly promoting Korean culture, APT. conquered international audiences and the Korean fan community.

In just a short time, the "Australian rose" has achieved many admirable achievements and records for a female Kpop solo artist. However, besides the global viral response, APT. has been involved in some controversies. Not only that, Rosé has also faced criticism from a part of the BLINK fandom - BLACKPINK's OT4 fandom.

Ahead of her solo comeback announcement, Rosé announced her fandom name, Number Ones. According to the "Australian rose", the fandom name means that her fans are always number 1 in her heart.

After the MV APT. was released for only about 5 days, Rosé continuously sent thanks to the Number Ones fandom community. Not only posting pictures on her story, in her clips, Rosé also sent greetings to her own fandom. Or most recently, Rosé also sent a voice message in a 4.7 million member group chat to thank Number Ones for bringing her the achievement of 100 million views.

Because of this action, Rosé was criticized by a part of the BLINK community - BLACKPINK fandom when they thought that she forgot the fans who are fans of the group and only thanked her own fandom. This coincided with the time when Lisa was heavily criticized for thanking Lilies - her own fandom but not thanking BLINK in her solo comeback.

For the BLINK community, this action has caused hurt as they are also supporters of the solo products of BLACKPINK members. However, they were not "named" when their idols thanked them.

However, for the more "sober" BLINKs, they think this is completely normal because this is a solo product of BLACKPINK members, so they have every right to thank their own fandom. Many people also affirm that when they are BLINKs, they will definitely become Number Ones, Lilies or Jennie and Jisoo's fandom without any unreasonable "jealous.y".

Talking about Rose's new MV, it revolves around a gir.l who wants to confess her love to her lover through a Korean drinking game. The visual part is interesting with the main pink tone, along with eye-catchin.g animation effects.

Rosé and Bruno Mars transformed into rock stars and performed happily together. One of the most notable moments in the MV was Rosé kissing Bruno Mars on the cheek. The Kpop idol's action surprised the male singer and made him laugh.

Belonging to the pop-punk genre, APT's melody is quite cheerful and catchy. The lyrics of the song are also written entirely in English.

Rosé is the third member of BLACKPINK to release a solo product since leaving YG. 3 hours after APT was released, the MV attracted nearly 3 million views on YouTube and hundreds of thousands of comments. In addition, Rosé's new product also climbed to 64th place on the Korean music site Melon. This is a good achievement for a song with lyrics entirely in English like APT.

On social media, the collaboration between Rosé and Bruno Mars has become a ho.t topic of discussion. Many people praised the new song of the female idol for its new color, a "transformation" compared to what she has shown before, especially the scene of forcing a kiss on her 'co-star' that caused a global fever.

In addition to the MV, APT's music received positive reviews. "The melody is cheerful and catchy. I was attracted from the first time I heard it", "I have never seen this color of Rosé before", "I can't stop smiling when watching Rosé's new MV. Her combination with Bruno feels very funny and natural"... are some comments from the audience.
