What is the origin of this song?
The APT Lyrics feature catchy melody is inspired by a Korean drinking game called "Apartment", and the song's catchy chorus is built around the game's rhythmic chanting. The song debuted at number one in Australia and New Zealand.
'APT' is actually my favourite Korean drinking game that I play with my friends back home. It's so simple, puts a smile on your face, and breaks the ice at any party. One night in the studio, I taught my crew how to play the game. Everyone was fascinated, especially when I started the chant, so we played around with it, and I said we should make a song out of it... and after Bruno joined the track, the rest became history! — Rosé on the song's origins.
