Rosé has opened up about her true feelings following BLACKPINK’s controversial 10th-anniversary celebration, admitting that she was deeply disappointed and needed time before she could speak publicly.

BLACKPINK’s 10th-anniversary festivities have been surrounded by controversy after reports raised questions about the planning of the group’s fan event at the National Museum of Korea.

The backlash intensified after fans questioned the scale and organization of the celebration, while reports claimed that the schedule had been adjusted shortly before the event.

Amid the growing criticism, Rosé finally addressed BLINK directly with a lengthy and emotional message.

The BLACKPINK member explained that she had spent several days thinking about what to say because she understood how disappointed fans felt.

“BLINK, I had so much on my mind these past few days that I couldn’t write sooner.”

Rosé admitted that she herself felt “particularly disappointed” when BLACKPINK reached the 10-year milestone.

However, she emphasized that her disappointment did not come from failing to understand the fans.

Instead, she said she needed time to process her emotions and figure out what she genuinely wanted to say.

“My heart feels heavy”

One of the most emotional parts of Rosé’s message came when she acknowledged that the situation may have made BLINK feel even more alone.

She said her heart felt heavy knowing that fans had been hurt and wanted to use the message to share some of her sincere feelings.

For Rosé, the decade BLACKPINK and BLINK have spent growing together has enormous meaning.

She explained that more than anything, she wanted everyone to celebrate the milestone together.

That made the disappointing anniversary even harder for her.

Rosé also expressed her gratitude to fans who attended the gathering despite the extremely hot weather.

She said she was genuinely happy to see BLINK again after such a long time, while also offering an apology.

Her emotions came rushing back after she got home

Rosé revealed that she only fully processed everything after returning home alone.

She described feeling overwhelmed by emotions and explained that she had delayed writing because she needed time to calm herself down.

Her words appeared to suggest that the controversy had affected her personally—not simply as a promotional issue surrounding BLACKPINK, but as an emotional moment involving the members and their fans.

She emphasized that the 10th anniversary belonged to both BLACKPINK and BLINK.

The members had spent 10 years working hard, while fans had spent the same decade giving them tremendous love and support.

Rosé acknowledged that everyone was disappointed but ended her message by congratulating BLACKPINK and BLINK on reaching the milestone.

She also expressed hope that they could continue creating beautiful memories together.

The message raises even more questions

Rather than ending the controversy, however, Rosé’s message has prompted another wave of speculation.

Fans are now questioning what the original anniversary plans looked like and which members were initially expected to participate in the event.

Her repeated references to disappointment, apologies and the celebration not going as expected have led some fans to wonder whether circumstances behind the scenes forced BLACKPINK to change their plans.

The situation has also renewed scrutiny of the event’s reported scheduling changes and organization.

For now, Rosé has not explicitly revealed what went wrong or who was responsible.

But her emotional message has made one thing clear:

BLACKPINK’s 10th anniversary did not unfold the way she—and apparently many BLINKs—had hoped.

And with fans now examining every detail of the celebration, Rosé’s heartfelt apology may have opened the door to even more questions about what happened behind the scenes.
