The two-minute-and-54-second video is a flirtatious, punk-infused pop song inspired by the popular Korean drinking game, the apartment game.

On Thursday, Bruno Mars took to his official Instagram to share a picture of himself playing the game with Rosé. He wrote, “Introduced me to this Korean drinking game and got me saucy.”

Rosé and Bruno Mars move to the beat, playing the game and vibing to the song on a pink-themed set, crooning, “Don’t you want me like I want you, baby? Don’t you need me like I need you now? Sleep tomorrow but tonight, go crazy.”

Earlier this month, Rosé announced a new chapter in her music career with the upcoming release of her debut solo album Rosie on December 6. Her first solo album R released in 2021. She shared that Rosie is deeply personal, describing it as a reflection of her emotional journey.

All the members of Blackpink — Lisa, Jennie, Rose and Jisoo — last appeared together in the music video of their 2022 single Shut Down, which went on to top the Billboard Global 200.

Meanwhile, Bruno Mars is currently on a concert tour in Brazil and will be performing in Las Vegas in December. Mars’ last solo album, 24k Magic, was released in 2016, followed by his 2021 collaboration with Anderson Paak on An Evening With Silk Sonic. In August, he released Die With a Smile with Lady Gaga, debuting the romantic ballad live at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 3.
