While the global success of "Apartment (APT)," sung by the group Blackpink Rosé and pop star Bruno Mars, continues, absurd controversy has emerged.

Recently, some have argued that "apartment" has a similar section to Japanese singer Miku Sawai's "Sorry, I Can't Be a Good Child."

However, there have been refutations that this section, where similarities have been raised, is only a code used in numerous songs for a long time, and it is difficult to regard it as plagiarism.

They view the plagiarism claim as a 'happening' caused by the success of 'apartment'.

"Apartment," released on the 18th, topped the charts of domestic music sites Melon, Genie, Bugs, and Vibe.

In addition, it has settled at the top of Spotify's global chart and the U.S. chart, and has been receiving good responses overseas, ranking first on iTunes charts in a total of 40 regions.
