Summary
Rosé’s January comments about respecting any member’s choice to stop BLACKPINK activities have resurfaced as fan anger over the group’s 10th-anniversary event widened after the celebration.
On the U.S. podcast “Call Her Daddy,” she said the four members would understand if one no longer felt continuing was right and that no one should be forced to stay.
The renewed attention followed complaints about the fan meeting’s format, limited attendance and gifts, with rice cakes reportedly worth about 6,900 won becoming a fresh flashpoint.
Jisoo had already apologized before the Aug. 8 event, underscoring how closely fans are scrutinizing BLACKPINK’s group plans as the 2016-debuted act balances full-group and solo activities.
