On the program "Call Her Daddy", Rosé (Blackpink) used her personal story to bring up a topic of discussion that many people are interested in, which is her thoughts on an unhealthy relationship.
The female singer described the experience of being used by her ex-lover as an excuse to "focus on her career" to control her emotions, and she only realized the abnormality when she met a new person who was more sincere.
Rosé confided: "At that time I was young, lacked confidence and loved very much. He often said things like he didn't want me to appear with friends, or he was always busy, and always justified it as work.
I convinced myself that this meant that the man was serious and devoted to his career. But now thinking back, I ask myself: "Why do I have to accept that?". At that time, he was very focused on work, and I just thought it was something attractive.
Later, I met people who were much more famous than that man, but they still wanted to do very normal things with me. That's when I realized I was manipulated, making myself believe that such a limited level is normal.
Rosé also revealed that she is disappointed with most of her old relationships, in which only one person is not on her "blacklist".
The female singer also talked about having put on a wig and disguised herself as an older woman when dating her boyfriend, for fear of being discovered.
The confidences of the "APT." singer caused a social media storm, fans are very curious about the identity of their ex-boyfriend who manipulated Rosé's psychology in the past.

According to Sohu, in addition to the content Rosé shared, one more thing to ponder is the time and motive she chose to publicize. All these confessions took place after she stood firm as a solo artist, holding the global hit "APT." and receiving 3 Grammy nominations.
The media assesses that Rosé has crossed the long-standing "forbidden line" that female group members are not allowed to be in love. She admits that music needs true emotions to nurture, and this experience is one of the grounds that inspires her composition.
In interviews, Rosé once revealed that she had an ex-lover who had a great impact on her life, to the point that she wrote many songs about him. Most of the songs in the solo album "Rosie", including "Toxic till the end", are said to be influenced by the pain that the toxic love affair with her ex-lover caused.
Recently, Rosé was confirmed to perform at the 2026 Grammy Awards ceremony taking place on February 1. The performing artist lineup includes top pop stars such as Lady Gaga, Alex Warren, Justin Bieber, Pharrell Williams, Sabrina Carpenter...
Meanwhile, Rosé and Bruno Mars' "APT." was nominated for 3 categories including Song of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
