Blackpink's Rose's "APT." breaks PSY's record for fastest K-pop solo MV to reach 300 million views.

According to Korean media, Rose and Bruno Mars' music video for their hit collaboration single, has surpassed 300 million views on YouTube.

The song was originally released on October 18 at 1 p.m. KST, meaning it took just 22 days, 6 hours, and 30 minutes to reach this milestone.

"APT." is not only the fastest music video to reach 300 million views for a K-pop solo artist, but also the sixth fastest music video to do so of all time (for all artists worldwide).

With the record for being the fastest music video by a K-pop solo artist to reach 300 million views, Rose broke the previous record of about 25 days held by PSY's 2013 hit "Gentleman." PSY's record had stood unbeaten for 11 years.

APT. was inspired by Rose's favorite Korean drinking game - "apateu" (apartment).

The song quickly became a hit in Korea and around the world, earning Rose her first Perfect All-Kill certification in her solo career, debuting at number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, and many other achievements.

The popularity of APT. also brought another song with the same name to the top of the Korean charts, Apartment by Yoon Soo Il. This song was released in 1982 and was considered a "national hit" at that time.
