Right, sorry it's freezing isn't it?
No, it's actually, I like it.
Just in here, come on in, come on.
Hello!
Hi, how are you?
This funday is my friend Rose.
Hi, lovely to meet you.
And I am treating her to a capital chippy and I know I come here all the time.
So I'm going to get her some of my favourites.
Is there anything you want or shall I order for her?
I can trust you.
I've had a big breakfast so I won't get the usual, just a few light bites.
Corn and chips, battered sausage, pie, mushy peas, curry sauce.
I tried that the other day.
What's that?
The red one.
Savaloi.
I tried it the other day, it was really good.
Yeah, alright, we'll get a Savaloi, some curry sauce, scampi, pickled eggs.
Pickled eggs?
Eggs that are pickled.
Oh my gosh, I'll try it.
Have you had jelly deals before?
Jelly deals?
Yeah.
Jelly?
Yeah, it's like eels.
Ew!
What?
Have a look.
Okay, let's try it.
We'll get some of them as well.
Thank you.
Cheers guys.
Rose, welcome to A Very British Day Out.
Yay!
Thank you for having me.
This is my favourite sort of food.
Fish and chips, very chippy.
Get stuck in.
Oh my god.
Wait, do we just eat?
Just eat, go for it.
You don't have to eat it all but try it.
This is fish and chips.
I'm so excited because I used to have this all the time.
Did you?
Growing up in Australia.
What's your favourite sort of food back home?
What would you usually have?
I really miss meat pies and sausage rolls.
I used to have them at school all the time.
And shepherd's pies.
Fish and chips is a big one.
They don't really have it in Korea.
Is this ketchup?
Yeah, that's ketchup.
Is it controversial?
Is it shocking that I have my fish and chips with ketchup?
No, that's fine.
Have you ever had curry sauce before?
No.
You've never had curry sauce?
No.
You have that with fish and chips?
Yeah, would you like to try some?
Yes, please.
So that's mushy peas.
What?
Mushy peas?
You've never had mushy peas?
So it's peas that are mushed, I think.
Okay.
Yeah.
Is this your first meal today?
I've had a bit of breakfast, but this is good.
Try the fish with the curry.
With curry, okay.
This is fun.
Let me know what you think.
Good?
Wow, that's actually really, really good.
With the curry sauce, it's great.
It is.
And we've got some pickled eggs.
Pickled eggs?
I'm terrified of that.
Battered sausage.
Jelly deals, but we'll get to them later.
What's your idea of food hell?
What don't you like?
I eat almost everything.
Really?
I'm not a picky eater at all.
No.
There's nothing I don't really like.
Really?
Yeah.
Let me think about it.
Nothing.
So for me, I'm the same, but it's just raw onions.
Oh, why?
Why don't you like raw onions?
It's just the crunchiness and the smell.
You don't like crunchiness?
No.
Wow.
Interesting.
Oh, sorry.
Right?
We didn't do the lemon.
Didn't do the lemon.
This is so important.
Sorry.
Crazy.
Excuse me.
I know!
Go teach me how to eat the proper British delicacy.
Right, you'll have to remind me.
I'm going to do a chip butty.
Have you had a chip butty before?
A butty?
Is that what you're saying?
A butty?
A butty.
A chip butty.
Yeah, I've never tried a butty before.
So just put some chips and some of the curry sauce,
even a bit of the fish, onto the butty.
Into the butty?
Onto the butty.
This is so cool that you're doing this.
This is so cool.
This looks good already.
This is crazy.
Chip butty, let's go.
Cheers.
Don't talk, you'll ruin it.
Don't ruin the moment.
Right.
You approve?
I kind of approve.
Okay.
It's kind of like when you're in a rush
and you want to have all of this at once.
The thing is, this food's so good,
I'm going to have to start the interview soon.
I know.
See, I already did that.
Did you already put some ketchup on?
Yeah, the ketchup really helps with the lemon.
Yummy.
Next time we'll get you a pot noodle and a wagon wheel.
Okay, a pot noodle and a wagon wheel?
Yeah.
Sounds scary but please.
Now, talking of very British things,
you actually met Kings Charles recently.
Yeah.
How was that?
Tell us what happened.
I mean, it was crazy.
We met him and we got MBE,
awarded MBE.
MBE, sorry?
She got an MBE?
Yes.
How crazy is that?
That's not like a Blue Peter badge,
that's pretty...
It's pretty insane.
That's pretty...
So you're now Rose MBE?
I kind of am.
That's so good.
I'm trying to get this right.
So you were born in New Zealand?
Yes.
But you grew up in Melbourne?
And I'm saying Melbourne, right?
Because a lot of British say Melbourne, don't they?
You're saying it correctly.
Melbourne.
Okay, Melbourne.
Where are you living now?
Are you just travelling a lot?
Are you all over?
I really am.
I lived in Korea for like 12 years
and then this past year I was in LA a lot
to work on music.
And then the past few months I've just been
literally just flying around everywhere.
Really?
I don't even know where I live.
I live in the plane.
Okay.
Yeah.
But it's been great.
You're in London now?
I'm in London now.
This is my home today.
And you mentioned your music before.
We should talk about Apaté.
It's huge.
It's gone everywhere.
It's number one in 25 countries, everybody.
Number one in 25 countries.
Let me get this right.
The first female K-pop artist to have a single
go straight into the top 10
on both the UK and US charts.
And, like we said, number one in 25 countries so far.
I cannot believe it.
I mean, like I hear about it and I'm still like,
I'm shocked and I'm super happy.
Did you have an idea?
Did you think this is going to be huge?
No, no.
It was really just for like,
it's kind of for the funsies.
I was like at the studio and we were just,
we were all drinking Diet Coke over hamburgers
and then I was like,
I'll teach you guys Korean drinking games.
But I like, I caught on to it because all these,
they're not Korean and they're just all Americans
and they were like,
they were like, what is this?
This is crazy.
And I was like, wow, you guys are really loving this.
And so I said as a joke, we should make a song.
And jokingly, we made the song
and that's what Apatze is right now.
So you did it from just playing around.
Yeah.
Doing this game.
Doing the game.
And now it's become a worldwide hit.
Yeah.
I mean, Bruno jumped on it.
So, I mean, he helped a lot.
What is the drinking game?
How do you play it?
The drinking game goes,
Rosie's favorite game.
Game start.
And you go, Apatze, Apatze.
Apatze, Apatze.
And then you put your hands in the middle,
like just stack it.
And I'll say like four.
So one.
Two.
Three.
Put it on top.
Four.
And I landed on the fourth floor.
So I take the shot.
Right.
Okay.
It's the vibe.
Do we have drinks to do this?
Yeah, we can get drinks.
As long as we do it properly.
Funnily enough.
Proper drinks.
I've got some rosé.
Oh, nice.
But in the UK, we call this the chicken wine.
Chicken wine?
Chicken wine.
Yeah.
Stop, why?
Because it's got chickens on the front.
Yeah.
But everyone just, it's called La Filia for Mermy.
Is this famous?
Yeah.
Are you just making this up?
No, I promise you.
In the UK.
Is this a famous rosé wine?
Yeah, it's a famous rosé wine,
but everyone just calls it the chicken wine.
So you'll say.
Chicken wine, I love that.
Everyone just calls it the chicken wine.
It's not its proper name.
So you'll say,
these are capital official UK number one mugs, by the way.
Cute.
And, oh, yes, go on.
Thank you for teaching me all this.
Are you just making it up?
No.
I'm just going to go in,
I'm just going to see chicken wine,
they're going to look at me weird.
No, if you said,
can I have some of the rosé chicken wine,
they'll know exactly what you mean.
Oh my gosh.
Are you happy to try rosé
or do you want some beer?
Do you want a beer?
Beer too, please.
Yeah, beer too as well, please.
Thank you very much.
Wow, chicken wine.
This is a chicken wine.
Oh my gosh.
So my name is basically chicken wine.
In the UK.
Can I introduce myself as chicken wine?
Hi, I'm chicken wine.
Say, right down the line,
say, hi, I'm chicken wine
and this is Capital Breakfast.
Hi, everyone.
My name is chicken wine
and this is Capital Breakfast.
There you go.
Cheers.
It's your new nickname.
Chicken wine.
I'm obsessed.
No, seriously.
Wait, this is really good chicken wine.
Wait, what?
It's so good.
I told you.
It's really good.
Wait, stop.
This is so good.
What time is it right now?
Not even noon.
Not even noon?
Man, we've been waiting for a long day.
Shall we play a British drinking game?
Oh, yes, please.
Have you heard of Never Have I Ever?
Get your palm up.
Oh, yeah.
This is also in Korea as well.
Oh, is it?
It's one of the random games in Korea.
I'm kind of scared.
Can we start it with random game?
Yeah.
Game start.
Let's do that again.
Random game.
Game start.
Right, okay.
You go first.
Pick the card up and read it.
Never have I ever re-gifted a present someone bought me.
I don't think I have.
And you take a drink.
Have you not?
You've never done that before?
No, I have.
Oh.
I just recently gifted somebody an iPhone that I received that I didn't.
That's the same thing.
I mean, I was thinking of some slippers from Debenhams, but still.
Wait, you drink it when you put it down?
Yeah.
Okay.
Alright, I'll go next.
Never have I ever worn a disguise in public.
Many times.
Drink it, chicken wine, get it down your neck.
Chicken wine.
What did you wear?
I dressed up as a granny.
I got like a wig.
I can't believe I'm telling the world this.
It's crazy.
You dressed up as a granny?
I got like a wig and then like a granny hat and I used to study what people wore outside.
And then I used to like buy it online on like eBay and stuff and like wear grandma clothes.
And then I like snuck out in the past.
So you wouldn't get recognized?
This is crazy that I'm saying this.
No, this is great.
I did that so I wouldn't get recognized.
Never have I ever recorded a collab with someone that hasn't been released.
I have.
Did you?
I did.
What happened?
It was fun and it was really nice, but then we just thought, um, I didn't have other music ready.
So just to have that one out, it was a bit awkward.
But I really loved it.
I had one with Bella Botch once.
Builder.
Yeah.
And it was like a nice first, but we just, we weren't ready to like kind of dive into the solo world yet.
So we just decided to push back.
Never have I ever Googled myself.
Googled myself?
Always.
Have you ever?
I did it like 10 minutes ago.
Have you ever Googled your name on X on Twitter?
Oh, all the time.
It's the worst.
It's the best.
Are you joking?
Because you get the latest ones and you're like, what are they saying about me now?
All right, tell us about the new album.
I don't think so.
Of course you can.
Get a beer down here.
Any goods?
Very good.
Do you want to try a jelly deal?
Should we do it?
If you do, I will.
Let's try it.
Are you sure?
I heard this is for it.
It might help.
Vinegar.
Do you want to get in on it?
No.
Oh ----!
I was trying to show the camera.
Right, we'll leave them.
We'll pick them up.
Nice.
Nice one.
So, let me just pick up these jelly deals.
Sorry, Rosé.
No, no, no, no.
Oh no, he's actually...
That was bad.
Okay.
So, let's put that there.
Oh my gosh.
I don't know why I agreed to this.
This kind of looks terrible.
Why do you eat this?
I don't.
The question is, who started this?
So, Cockneys eat this.
Cockneys?
Cockneys, yeah.
Okay.
People from London.
Okay.
And then, I wonder who started this.
It's like in the old days.
Cheers.
I don't know why we did that.
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
I can't.
I can't do it.
You're meant to suck out the spine.
That's big.
I can't do it.
I'm so sorry.
Get some chicken right.
I don't understand.
What?
Oh, no.
Oh, my God.
He's actually…
Careful, careful.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
I don't think I should have made you do that.
I'm fine.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, no.
That's bad.
That never happens.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry.
Wait, wait, wait.
Somebody…
Chicken one?
Can I have some water, please?
No, no.
Ginger beer.
I'm so sorry.
No, that's fine.
That's fine.
I'm so sorry.
No.
I'm so sorry.
No.
It's totally fine.
It's the most disgusting thing I've had.
And I've had sheep's penis before.
Let's move on.
That sounds scary.
I think we should do some chat aperture questions.
Yes, please.
Okay.
So, a bit like chat GPT.
This is chat APT.
Okay.
Oh, God.
Track number two is 3AM on your album.
So, if we were up at 3AM, what would we most likely be doing?
Listening to 3AM and just scrolling through internet.
Yeah, probably.
Searching your name.
Probably, yeah.
Probably doom scrolling.
Yeah.
Okay.
Track number three is two years.
But chat APT would like to know, where would you like to be in two years from now?
Oh, my God.
That's the best question.
That's such a good question.
I know you.
Two years?
Wait, how old am I?
29?
29.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Are you 29?
In two years.
Oh, you'll be 29 in two years?
Yes.
Why?
I thought you was way younger.
Really?
Yeah.
Aw, thank you.
I'm 34 and I look like I've been dug up.
No, you look great yourself.
What would you be doing at 29?
What would you like to be doing?
I'd like to be working on my next album and yeah, I'd like to still feel young.
Would you like to be going for chippies with northerners in London?
Yeah.
Track number 12 is Dance All Night.
So, chat APT would like to know, what song, any song are you playing on repeat and dancing all night to?
I'm going to be boring.
Just say, maybe Apatze.
Apatze.
Yeah.
That's fine.
It's a great song to dance.
Like, I've noticed, we've played it at parties once a few times.
It's fun when you do like the mosh pit.
Everyone goes back and you go, me, me at the Apatze, Apatze.
And then you just like throw yourself at everyone.
It's really fun.
So, you can mosh pit to it as well?
You can definitely mosh pit to it.
It's the best.
Rose, aka Chicken Wine.
And honestly, it's been…
Best interview ever.
Oh, thank you.
I'm sorry that happened to you with the…
What is it?
The jelly eel?
The jelly eel.
I'm sorry.
That wasn't me being dramatic.
That's generally the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted.
I'm so sorry.
Let's erase it from our brains.
Let's erase it.
Besides that, that was great.
Thank you.
Thank you for joining us for a very British chippy.
Thank you so much.
Cheers.
Give it up, everybody.
That was so good.
Thank you.
I'm not ever eating them jelly eels again.
Guys, thank you so much.
It was delicious.
And we're going to clear this up.
I promise you, I wasn't doing that.
I don't want to ever try one of them again.
That's my only prerequisite.
I can't even touch that.
It's making me…
No.
I'm not being dragged up.
