ROSE from the group BLACKPINK opened up about the difficult days she went through, from Love Affair Rumors to rumors originating from China.
On the 4th (local time), the American fashion magazine "Paper" announced that it
ROSE appeared in an interview with E. It appears that the interview was conducted to celebrate the release of her new song "APT.", and she spoke frankly about everything from her new song to her personal thoughts on the rumors.
First, regarding the reaction after the release of "APT.", he said, "I received real-time feedback and started to enjoy it. What if I couldn't release an album that I was proud of?
"I was worried about whether I would be able to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Now I'm happy and proud," she said. "I'm very grateful that I was able to have a few romantic relationships like a normal girl in her 20s."
"It's not that different from a 23-year-old girl. Anyone who has experienced that kind of love can relate to this song," she said. ROSE also commented on her experience in her 20s, "The 20s are not an easy time to live.
"It's a time when you're all feeling very vulnerable, confused, excited, angry about life. This is the song I wanted to sing."
ROSE is involved in Love Affair Rumors with actor Kang Dong Won and malicious rumors from China.
Due to the rumors, she also received malicious comments. ROSE said about the malicious comments, "I realized how vulnerable and addictive the online world is. I was reading the comments late at night.
"I have a bad habit of being loved and understood. I realized I had a craving for love and understanding," she confessed. "I hated myself for being that way. In fact, I wanted to hide those feelings, but I was hiding them from all of my friends.
"The people are trampling on me," she said, expressing her distress. ROSE also promised to be more honest. Last April, ROSE was embroiled in love affair rumors with Kang Dong Won.
Rumours of a romance began to circulate after the pair were spotted attending events together, wearing matching necklaces and outfits, and attending private fashion-related gatherings together.
At the time, ROSE's management office, YG Entertainment, stated, "It is an artist's private matter and we cannot confirm it."
After that, ROSE was also plagued by drug allegations. A creative director posted a photo of several acquaintances, including ROSE, enjoying a party together.
When the photo was published, some Chinese media and communities saw the ashtray on the table and suspected drug use.
The rumors about BLACKPINK's ROSE that are spreading on social media and through social networks are clearly false. We will not tolerate any acts that violate the artist's human rights or damage their reputation.
"If any of this happens, we will take legal action," he said. ROSE's statement drew attention after about a year of suffering from the love affair rumors and drug allegations.
