Only 4 days left, the music night of Blackpink – the leading K-pop girl group – will take place in Vietnam.

“Born Pink” is a historic show for Vietnamese fans because the four YG girls are global stars and have great influence. Blackpink will deliver billion-view hits like Ddu-du Ddu-du, As if it’s your last…

After 7 years of debut, Blackpink has become a global phenomenon. The 4 members achieved a lot of success with their individual activities. In particular, Rose made her solo debut with the album “R” in March 2021 and became the K-pop solo artist with the most viewed MV on YouTube in 24 hours with the title song “On the Ground”.

The MV reached 41.6 million views in 24 hours and broke the nearly 8-year-old record of “Gentleman” – PSY for the highest number of views in the first 24 hours of a Korean solo artist.

However, few people know that Rose’s family did not support their daughter pursuing her dream of becoming a singer.

She joined YG Entertainment in 2012 as a trainee and trained there for 4 years. But before joining this YG project, the first hurdle she went through was telling her parents about her dream.

In a video posted on Rose’s YouTube in May 2021, the female idol filmed a scene eating with her parents and chatting about the time before she came to Korea.

Because she grew up and lived in Melbourne, Australia, pursuing singing meant that she had to leave her family. Therefore when Rose first told her parents she wanted to become a singer, they strongly objected.

“Do you remember? How we all objected when you said you wanted to become a singer. Suddenly one day you said it, it was a complete surprise to us,” Rose’s mother said in the video. .

Rose’s father said that that day she even brought 3 friends and performed in front of her parents to show her seriousness. But it was that determination that convinced her parents. They supported her in participating in auditions for Korean companies because they wanted their daughter to have good memories.

“Mom and dad think it would be great if you audition because that’s your dream. But we don’t expect anything at all, we just hope it leaves you with beautiful memories,” Rose’s father shared. .

During 4 years, Rose honed her skills and debuted in 2016, becoming part of the Blackpink project. During that time, Rose always had her family by her side to support her. Last April, Rose posted childhood photos with her mother. The female singer also shared that she is closest to her mother in the family.

Rose was born on February 11, 1997 in Auckland, New Zealand, to Korean immigrant parents. Rose’s family consists of her parents and an older sister. In 2004, she moved to Melbourne, Australia with her family when she was 7 years old. Rose’s family does not use social networks and rarely appears publicly with her. According to information, Rose’s father is a lawyer, and her mother is a businessman.
