More “Entertainment”
Rosé, the singer of the South Korean group Blackpink, born in New Zealand and aged 27, has just shocked the Internet. The reason? What she does in her latest music video Toxic till the endthe title of which is part of his very first solo album released Friday. It follows a two-track EP, R-Single, released in 2021. The opus is simply titled Rosie and includes a dozen tracks with a punk-rock flavor from the 2000s, Avril Lavigne style. The song APT., with Bruno Mars, also appears there.
This song ????
It’s not so much the content of the song Toxic till the end which heated up the spirits. It’s not even the fact that Rosé – Roseanna Park by her full name – shows herself splashing behind a tree, after having had a drink. No, what set the Internet in turmoil was this sequence, plunged into semi-darkness, in which we see her exchange a kiss. Not a kiss, eh, a REAL kiss from a consenting adult.
This sequence.
In video, it looks like this ????
The one who plays her boyfriend in the very cinematic images is the Filipino-American actor and skater Evan Mock. A bad boy-lover cool, what.
A priori, at least in the Western world, nothing new under the sun; a young woman evokes her love life in song. But not for K-pop groups; Traditionally, young “Idols” (South Korean stars) are generally asked to be very discreet about their love lives – when they are not simply prohibited from having a relationship at the “trainee” stage. ), and this by contractual means.
This is to keep fans in “thirsty” mode; followers must be able to dream of their idol in single mode. The icing on the cake, no romantic crisis to tarnish the reputation or to give fodder to the media.
But now, for several years, the four members of Blackpink have taken their solo flight, and sculpted a DA of their own. First Lisa, who reached the ultra-sexy Victoria’s Secret catwalk, then Jennie, it’s now Rosé’s turn to make her voice heard with all the spotlight focused on her unique person.
A loving and vulnerable Rosé
A liberation, assure some of his fans. Personal, first. Professional, then; the discreet Rosé can finally show her slightly crazy, childish and skater side that we don’t suspect when she evolves within the group. Specificity of her own: Rosé, who spent her childhood and adolescence in Melbourne, Australia, sings her entire album in English. A rather Americanized bias, which marks a clear break with his image as a traditional South Korean star, while not failing to keep its aesthetic codes.
So, faced with this social pressure, when Rosé sings…
«Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: The Ex»
Ladies and Gentlemen: I present to you: the ex
…it could only cause a sensation.
Shortly before its release, Rosé announced that her album would revolve around the theme of toxic relationships, loves gone wrong and missed warning signs. Roseanna had notably confided during an interview given to Paper Magazine that she had had her share of “toxic relationships”, like any other girl in her twentiesand that she wants to let her emotions and this vulnerability shine through in her new album.
“I think I’m grateful enough to have had a few relationships, you know, like a normal twenty-something girl. I want people to understand that I’m not much different from the average girlfriend or 23-year-old girl.”
Rosé.
If the song Toxic Till the end comes a little closer to reality, we must believe that this relationship which marked her was as passionate as it was tumultuous. In the song, Rosé wants to leave a relationship that is destroying her, but is relentlessly drawn to the toxic lover.
“Jealous and possessive
So manipulative
(…)
At the time, when I was leaving your house, I said:
“I never want to see your face again.”
I wanted to say that I couldn’t wait to see him again.
We were toxic until the end.”

The hunt for the ex is on
Yes, but…who is this toxic ex she’s talking about? This is what the singer’s fans have been working on for several days.
Very quickly, a sequence from 2019 in which Rosé sheds a few tears on stage resurfaced.
Who hurt you, Rosé?
Maybe she had a gnat in her eye.
Some fans are certain of this; it’s the American rapper and actor Jaden Smith we’re talking about. Yes, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s son would be the “bad” ex. Internet users have even gathered irrefutable evidence.

The two stars are rumored to have been dating in 2019, after meeting at the Coachella festival. At the time, Jaden Smith had pink hair, as did Evan Mock, who plays “the ex” in the music video. Chance?
Jaden is on the left, just behind Rosé.
It is true that Rosé and Jaden were regularly seen together between 2019 and 2023. Jaden was in a relationship with actress Odessa A’zion from 2017 to 2019, then with influencer Sab Zada from 2020 to August 2024. Timing surprisingly adequate…

Another track
Others have refuted this suggestion. They concluded that the toxic ex would in fact be Jason Choi, a skateboarding instructor that Rosé followed on Insta. Her colorful hair (bis), and the fact that Rosé has been photographed on several occasions on a skateboard, has alerted many fans. But who introduced her to the art of roulette? they ask themselves.
His?

Fans were convinced when they noticed Choi shared this image on her Instagram account:
Some commented:
“Is this Rosé’s ex?!”
“Rosé really settled for Golum when she could have done better”
Nice internet world, as always.
Jason Choi received such a wave of comments, sometimes hateful, that he had to defend himself by posting a message in his story:
“I’m not Blackpink Rose’s ex. I’m a big fan though. I don’t know how I became his ex; I’m still confused. And please don’t be rude. THANKS!”
In short, while some denounce the digital witch hunt that has begun, and the name of the ex still remains mysterious, one thing is certain: Rosé knew how to manage her solo turn, by offering an album that resembles her, and generating well-orchestrated mini-buzz. We look forward to discovering the next clips…and the next exes?
