After Rose released her song "APT.", her kiss with Bruno Mars became a viral moment on social media.
In a chat group with fans, Hurrykng humorously shared: "Oh my god, Rose kissed Bruno. Because it's love, I'll let it go. Kissing someone else is work."
After that, Anh Tu Atus replied: "Don't worry, Bruno called to ask you. We're just having fun. Don't worry."
The interesting interaction between the two "brothers" attracted thousands of views from the audience. Many people commented that Anh Tu Atus has a habit of "offending" and joking from the show to real life.
Anh Tu Atus and Hurrykng became close when they participated in "Anh trai say hi". They were once on the same team in the final and performed the song "Ngao nghe" together with the content said to carry the spirit of Atus.
Before that, Hurrykng often showed special support for Rose. In a post by Rose on Instagram at the end of July, Hurrykng commented "so thin" and attracted more than 22,000 likes from Vietnamese fans.
During a livestream, the humorous rapper claimed to be a member of the group Big Bang, but later left the group.
Anh Tu Atus also had the opportunity to watch Blackpink perform while escorting his wife Dieu Nhi to a concert. The male singer and his wife have attended concerts by Bruno Mars, Big Bang... and many international artists.
“APT.” by Rose (Blackpink) and Bruno Mars debuted at No. 3 on Spotify’s global daily chart, with 6,859,271 streams.
This achievement helped Rose set the record for the biggest debut by a female Kpop solo artist on Spotify globally, surpassing Lisa's "New Woman" (6 million streams).
Rose said that during a few meetings with Atlantis Records, she accidentally learned that Bruno Mars had also signed a contract with this record label. Rose happily shared with the record label staff that she was a “big fan” of Bruno Mars. The female idol first suggested to Atlantis Records: “Do you think he would like to collaborate with me?”.
Bruno then asked Rose to send him 3 songs. At that time, she still thought that the collaboration would be 99% impossible because Bruno Mars was a world-famous star. But she thought that just having Bruno listen to 3 of her songs was a big win.
Surprisingly, when the two met again, Bruno asked Rose: “What does APT. mean?”. She explained: “It’s a Korean drinking game.” Rose was shocked when it was the song Bruno Mars wanted to collaborate with her on.
