BLACKPINK has a member who wants to leave the group, Rosé speaks out and reveals a shocking secret.

After the "DEADLINE" world tour ended in tears, Rosé's latest comments about "respecting the members' decision to leave the group" are causing a stir among fans worldwide.

The abrupt ending and the suspicious tears

The three nights of performances in Hong Kong (China) officially concluded the six-month DEADLINE world tour. With a total of 33 shows, this number is considered quite "quick" for a global music group. Notably, the members' repeated calls of this as their "final concert" without any announcement of an extended (encore) performance have sparked concerns about an impending breakup.

On the final night's stage, Jennie's tearful moment, along with Lisa and Rosé's emotional farewells to BLINKs, became a focal point on online forums. With the group's contract nearing its expiration, these tears were not simply expressions of emotion after a tour, but were suspected to be a farewell to an era called BLACKPINK.

Rosé and her controversial statement on "Call Her Daddy"

Amidst the speculation, Rosé appeared on the podcast Call Her Daddy and for the first time frankly addressed questions about the group's future. When asked about the scenario if a member wanted to leave, BLACKPINK's lead vocalist affirmed that absolute respect is the top priority.

"If one of us feels that continuing is no longer the right thing to do, then we will all respect that decision. BLACKPINK only has four members, so we will never disregard anyone's decision at any point in their life."

Although she didn't directly confirm the disbandment, Rosé's response was interpreted by experts as "preparing fans psychologically." It reflects an objective reality: after nearly a decade, each member has built their own empire in the fields of music, fashion, and film. Prioritizing individual career paths is entirely possible.

Waiting for a "miracle" at the 10-year milestone.

Despite the tense atmosphere, the BLINK community still finds glimmers of hope. Many sources from Korean media report that BLACKPINK may add six more shows in North America and Korea to promote their recently released mini-album, DEADLINE. If this information is accurate, the group's tour will be extended significantly.

All eyes are now on August 8th – the 10th anniversary of the group's formation. This is considered the "golden moment" for YG Entertainment and the members to give their final answer regarding contract renewal. After a brilliant decade, whether they continue or stop, BLACKPINK has fulfilled its mission of changing the face of K-pop on the world map.

Fans are currently both "lighting candles" of hope for an expanded tour and preparing themselves for a new chapter – where the four girls may shine brightly as completely independent artists.

Regardless of what happens on August 8th, no one can deny the iconic influence BLACKPINK has built. The tears in Hong Kong could be a farewell, but it could also be the stepping stone to a brighter new chapter. Currently, all attention is focused on YG, awaiting an official announcement to soothe the anxious hearts of the global BLINK community.
