Rosé Breaks Bruno Mars' Rule of Being an Exception, Gets Support for Dating

After the success of the super hit "APT.", Rosé and Bruno Mars were rumored to be dating. The reason is because the duo has many intimate gestures - something not often seen in the Kpop idol world.

Although the 2024 MAMA Awards ceremony has ended for many days, its echoes still attract the attention of the audience. Especially the interaction between Rosé and Bruno Mars on social media after receiving the first MAMA trophy in their career is still causing a fever.

In the past, the "Australian rose" was involved in some dating rumors with male stars such as Kang Dong Won, Jungkook (BTS)... but this is the first time fans have seen her act so intimately, even boldly, with a male colleague.

News of Rosé and Bruno Mars' collaboration broke out in mid-October, when the Kpop idol suddenly posted a photo with the Just The Way You Are singer on Instagram with the caption: "That night I taught Bruno how to play a Korean drinking game."

Bruno Mars also enthusiastically left a comment under the "Australian rose" post: "So funny! Remember when you tried to kiss me? It was weird. Also, that picture was great!", and she replied: "Take that back or I won't release the song, Bruno".

When the duo's song "APT." was officially released on October 18, what the American pop superstar said as a joke was realized in the MV. Rosé even shocked the audience when she did not hesitate to kiss Bruno Mars on the cheek.

According to music critic Cha Woo Jin, the actions of BLACKPINK's main vocalist show that idols are increasingly expressing their personalities and images, challenging the usual limitations of the strict Kpop music industry.

"The traditional rules for K-pop idols are being broken. Just look at Rosé's latest single 'APT.' She drinks alcohol and kisses Bruno Mars on the cheek in the music video. We've barely seen a male co-star in a gir.l group music video before, let alone a kiss," said Cha Woo Jin.

This is also the premise that makes many fans support Rosé and Bruno to become a couple. The two famous artists are commented to have sociable, cheerful personalities, very compatible with each other. Not to mention the harmony in passion for music.

On the other hand, Korean audiences were surprised by the "Martian"'s actions showing respect and wholehearted support for the "Australian rose". On Instagram, Bruno praised Rosé and Lady Gaga as "my girls making history" when the two songs "APT." and "Di.e With A Smile" dominated global music charts, setting many records.

Most notably, the American pop superstar agreed to attend MAMA 2024. The public believes that Bruno is there because of Rosé, because he is a globally famous artist, has won 15 Grammy awards and has attended many prestigious music awards ceremonies around the world. But this is the first time he has appeared at a Korean music awards ceremony.

After the award ceremony, Bruno immediately posted a photo of him walking with Rosé, and called himself "the one accompanying" the female idol to MAMA 2024 (implying giving the main character's spotlight to Rosé). This subtlety of his is very popular with Korean fans.

Not only did the duo comfortably hug each other on stage to receive their awards, but they also went out for pizza together after the event ended. Of course, some people think that because Bruno Mars is a Western artist, Rosé is more comfortable interacting with him.

However, there are still some fans who "ship" the couple because of their compatibility and harmony. Previously, "Mr. Mars" dated model and actress Jessica Caban, starting in 2011. However, in early 2024, there was information that the two had "gone their separate ways". Since then, they have not spoken out about the rumors of ending their relationship, but have also stopped interacting publicly.
