The collaboration track APT. by BLACKPINK's Rosé and pop star Bruno Mars has re-entered the upper ranks of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
According to the latest Billboard Hot 100 chart released on December 11, APT. rose five spots from the previous week to secure the 17th position.
Released on October 6 as the pre-release single for Rosé's first full-length album, rosie, the track features harmonious vocals from Rosé and Bruno Mars paired with a catchy main melody. It has sparked organic challenges on platforms like TikTok and other short-form video apps.
The song debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100, later dropping to No. 13 and then No. 15. After rebounding to No. 13, it slid to No. 22 but has now climbed back to No. 17, re-entering the chart's upper ranks.
This achievement is particularly notable given that this week's Hot 100 top positions are dominated by classic holiday tracks such as Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You at No. 2, Brenda Lee's Rockin' Around the Christmas Treeat No. 3, and Wham!'s Last Christmas at No. 3—making APT. stand out in a season traditionally ruled by Christmas songs.
Meanwhile, BTS member Jimin's Who climbed nine spots to No. 47, marking its 20th consecutive week on the Hot 100. Additionally, V and Park Hyo-shin's duet Winter Ahead debuted at No. 99.
