Why are people surprised rosé resigned?

yg probably offered a very sweet deal & I don’t think she has a lot of other (non korean) offers compared to Lisa.
 

Jisoo probably wants to take acting more serious.  

She's the literally the one that did all the interviews for them in English and is the one making celebrity friends

 

She also is representing Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co, not just a local ambassador, one of THE global faces. If you google these brands and face (without Rose), her face pops up

Dear Rose,

 

I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. It is with a heavy heart and a sense of disappointment that I write to you today. I want to express my sincere disappointment and concern regarding your recent decision to renew your contract with YG Entertainment.

 

First and foremost, let me emphasize that my intention in writing this letter is not to criticize you or your choices, nor to undermine the agency that you have chosen to remain with. As a long-time fan and someone who genuinely cares about your well-being and artistic journey, my aim is to share my thoughts and feelings with you in a heartfelt manner.

 

I have followed your career from the very beginning, starting with your trainee days, through your debut with BLACKPINK, and witnessing your remarkable growth as an artist. Your talent, dedication, and unique personality have always shone brightly. It was not just your voice that resonated with me, but your authenticity and the genuine connection you established with your fans worldwide.

 

Throughout your career, you have faced numerous challenges and opportunities. You've overcome adversity, displayed incredible resilience, and reached incredible heights as a member of BLACKPINK. Your solo debut with "R" and "On The Ground" showcased your individual prowess and solidified your status as a formidable solo artist. I was thrilled to see you branching out and exploring your own musical identity.

 

Given your exceptional talent and potential, I held high hopes that you would choose a path that would enable you to fully express your artistic vision and personal values. YG Entertainment, however, has been embroiled in controversies and faced criticism for various issues over the years. While no company is without flaws, it has been disappointing to witness the agency's handling of certain situations and the impact these controversies have had on its artists.

 

My concern lies in the possibility that, by renewing with YG Entertainment, you may find yourself in an environment that does not fully support your creative growth, individuality, and artistic freedom. I fear that your artistic integrity might be compromised, and that you may not have the opportunity to explore the full range of your musical talents and aspirations.

It is not my place to judge the intricacies of your decision-making process. I recognize that you have undoubtedly considered numerous factors, including personal and professional considerations, when making this choice. I respect your autonomy and your right to make decisions that you believe are in your best interest.

 

Nonetheless, I cannot deny that I had hoped to see you flourish in an environment that fosters creativity, values your unique voice, and encourages you to be the best version of yourself as an artist. It pains me to think that your immense potential might not be fully realized due to external constraints or limitations.

 

I want you to know that my disappointment in this decision does not diminish my admiration for your talent and the artistry you bring to the world. You remain an inspiration to countless fans, and your music has touched the lives of many, including mine. Your dedication to your craft, your genuine interactions with fans, and your ability to connect with people on a profound level are qualities that set you apart.

 

As you continue your journey with YG Entertainment, I sincerely hope that you prove my concerns wrong and that you find the support and creative freedom you deserve. I hope that your renewed partnership brings you the happiness, fulfillment, and artistic satisfaction that you seek. I will continue to support you and your music, as I have done for so long, because my belief in your talent and potential remains unwavering.

 

In closing, I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, Rose. May you continue to create music that resonates with your fans and the world at large. May you find the strength to navigate any challenges that may arise and emerge even stronger as an artist and as a person. Please remember that, despite my disappointment, I am still a dedicated fan who wants nothing but the best for you.

is this a copy pasta or did you just write this out

 

Either way you're not wrong lmao

It must have been some RAT norwegian interney who misheard the names and instead it's JISOO who's renewing, right? RIGHT?

The drawn out kpop teasers are stale and getting worse all the time. Sajaegiship is actually kinda genius for keeping things minimal until music starts to drop, especially since they have a month long rollout already confirmed.

announcing the comeback almost two months before and only releasing a mv teaser the day before the release is not a great promotion strategy whatsoever

 

you need to make sure people know you are having a comeback & create hype 

 

[kataraqueen]

I refuse to believe Rosé is staying with YG unless she reveals a tight clad contract where it says she will never see the dark corners of that musky, fungal dungeon. Until then, miss me with these rumours. At worst, it was Jisoo who said she was renewing and some dead beat Swedish intern who was listening along w/ a glass against the wall misheard the names.

 

[illia]

I'm gonna be honest, without KTRL I wouldn't even know about IVE's comeback  There is absolutely ZERO hype

I hope they pull a NJ debut and the (hopefully) quality music will speak for itself

[kataraqueen]

Also just wanna say in here real quick that Rosé's parents are literally a

successful business woman and a succesful lawyer

 

There is no way in hell miss Roseanne is getting shelved until 2026 even if she renews with YG 

Spoiler

unless her parents have been begging her to choose a different career path

They are doing exactly what NewJeans have been doing and taking into consideration how popular they are people will check on them anyway.

Well YG would scratch for money Henceforth so maybe an anual comeback is guaranteed 

[Selenasworld]

Not KTRL being right since the beginning, spycyaega and Mel were so offended about it 

[cloudbusting]

if Rosé really did renew either she got a great deal or she/someone in her circle is NOT bright 

 

hoping for her sake it’s the former, but I don’t trust YGE like that

[MonsterNavy]

roseanne cannot be that dumb to stay with YG unless she got a really good $$$ offer and the terms for her solo career are great.

 

like that user said on the last page, she's front page at the tiffany & co, saint laurent and rimowa websites these are huge global luxury brands and she's always the one talking the most when the group is being interviewed outside korea in english

 

she's connected with jack antonoff, taylor swift, max martin and has been seen a lot of times in electric lady studios in nyc where legendary artists record their music (david bowie, the rolling stones, kendrick lamar, bad bunny, beyonce, lady gaga, lanq del rey, taylor swift etc etc) only for her recordef album there to be released for the dusty tasteless musty hypocrite koreans

 

the essay  i'm just frustrated. roseanne girl leave that shithole NOW

[thirdward]

i bet she decided to stay.mp3 bc she thinks they would make her the priority since the girls are leaving 

but it’s not like she needs the yg video payola that’s something for Lisa or Jennie idk 

[thirdward]

going to grammys and vma after parties, roc nation brunch to stay with teddy

not surprised cause even as a fan i’m not hyped anymore dddd just want to get this out of the way and move on to OTF and Baddie

 

they will do good on korean charts depending on the song but globally it will be a flop unless they promote it

 

their global presence is not as strong as NJ and they benefit a lot from casual listeners which is why the lack of teasing is so stupid

 

the teaser rollout for I’VE IVE was kinda botched too but with promo it was saved so we’ll see

Well…NJ has been doing this strategy since debut, and as far I know Even asap had a teaser video. We got nothing, it will never work with IVE  The lack of vision is concerning. 

[hallucinate]

well YG needs money to launder so maybe we’ll get one comeback a year at least
