Rosé’s “Apt.” with Bruno Mars ties Jimin’s “Who” as the third-longest-running K-pop hit on … More
Rosé and Jimin have been racing one another on the Billboard charts throughout the first half of 2025. The BTS star set several records not long ago with his solo single “Who,” and lately, the Blackpink singer has been matching — and in some cases, beating — his historic showings with “Apt.,” her collaboration with Bruno Mars.
The two are tied once again on a Billboard ranking as “Apt.” continues to stand out as one of the biggest hits in America.
Rosé Ties Jimin’s All-Time Streaming Record
“Apt.” returns to the top 40 on the Streaming Songs chart, Billboard’s roster of the most-played tracks on platforms like Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, iHeartRadio, Tidal, and others. As it ascends from No. 41 to No. 37, Rosé’s team-up with Mars reaches 34 weeks somewhere on the all-genre tally.
“Apt.” is now tied with “Who” for the honor of being the third-longest-running win by any K-pop musician in the history of the Streaming Songs roster.
Psy Will Likely Always Be the Winner
“Gangnam Style” by Psy, which helped kick off the K-pop craze that continues to this day, is easily in first place on this historic list. That breakout smash remained on the chart for an amazing 122 weeks, and his is a record that will likely never be beaten.
“Baby Shark,” which comes from South Korean brand Pinkfong, managed 59 stays on the Streaming Songs chart.
Rosé will almost certainly beat Jimin’s record next week, but she has a long way to go before tying — and perhaps even topping — Pinkfong. It seems almost impossible that the Blackpink superstar, or anyone for that matter, will ever catch up to Psy, who may hold onto that special honor forever.
“Apt.” Remains a Massive Hit in America
“Apt.” remains a major hit across all consumption methods in the U.S. While the tune is declining on both the Digital Song Sales and Radio Songs charts, it sits in loftier positions there than on the Streaming Songs ranking.
Rosé’s breakout smash lives at No. 21 on the Digital Song Sales chart and No. 27 on the Radio Songs list, and it remains a top 10 hit on both of Billboard’s global tallies.
