BLACKPINK’s Rosé is crowned on Australia’s singles chart for the first time, a feat that etches her name in the history books.

The New Zealand-born, Australia-raised superstar singer ends Sabrina Carpenter’s reign on the ARIA Single Chart, as “APT.” (via Atlantic/Warner), her collaboration with Bruno Mars, debuts at No. 1.

With that, Rosé becomes the first solo female K-pop star to top the ARIA Chart.

She’s just the second solo artist from South Korea to climb the chart ladder after PSY’s “Gangnam Style” spent six weeks on top back in 2012.

Born in Auckland and raised in Melbourne, Rosé (born Roseanne Park) made the move to South Korea aged 15, when the world of K-pop came calling. At her father’s suggestion, she auditioned for South Korean music company YG Entertainment. It was a shrewd move. The rest is music history.

BLACKPINK – comprising Rosé, Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa — smash records for fun. In 2022, BLACKPINK set the mark for the highest-debuting single by a K-pop group in ARIA Chart History when “Pink Venom” hit No. 1, beating the No. 2 start for BTS’ 2020 hit “Dynamite.”

BLACKPINK’s two studio albums, The Album (from 2020) and Born Pink (2022), both debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the Australian albums survey. In support of Born Pink, the pop group last year embarked on an east coast arena tour of Australia.

“APT.,” a reference to the Korean drinking game aparteu, or apartment in English, is the first single from Rosé’s debut album Rosie, which lands on Dec. 6. The track lands at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, and arrived at No. 4 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart, setting a new record in the process.

In the United States, “APT.” powers to No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100. That too is a history-making achievement; Rosé becomes the first female solo artist prominent in K-pop (Korean pop) to hit the top 10.
