BLACKPINK's Rosé won first place on 'Show! Music Core' in the second week of November.

On the MBC music program 'Show! Music Core' broadcast on the 9th, The Boyz's 'Trigger', Rosé's 'Apartment', and Espa's 'Whiplash' competed for first place.

On this day, Rosé took first place with a total of 6,707 points, including 5,000 points from music and album scores, 1,300 points from video and broadcast scores, 341 points from pre-voting (viewer committee and global) scores, and 66 points from live voting scores. They were followed by The Boyz in second place (4,365 points) and Espa in third place (3,653 points).

The MCs received the trophy on behalf of Rosé, who was not present on the broadcast that day, and said, “Congratulations. We will definitely give the first place trophy to Rosé.”

"Apartment" is a pre-released track from Rosé's solo full-length album "Rosie," which will be released next month, and is sung by Rosé and Bruno Mars. It was inspired by the Korean drinking game "Apartment Game" and is characterized by its addictive chorus.
