About APT In an interview, Rose had opened up about not having faith in the track. Speaking about thinking of deleting the track, she said, "I think it is a bit scary, because when I played it to a Korean friend that I really like trust, I played it to Teddy, my producer in BLACKPINK. If I didn’t play it to him, I don’t think I wouldn’t have really understood.
He was instantly like, ‘Rosie, this song is gonna break the internet.’ That’s what he said. Because I trust his opinion, I was like, ‘Really,’ he’s like, ‘I love it, this is crazy.’ So that’s when I was like, ‘Okay.’ I started calling them back, you know like, let’s bring it back out. So it is kind of scary."
