BLACKPINK's Rosé in Sea Of Hope

BLACKPINK's Rosé shot for Sea of Hope before she left for the US. Rosé appeared as a guest on the show for the first three episodes. During this time, she took part in some of the activities on the variety show along with other cast members.

When Rosé performed Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, Lee Dong-wook, Lee Ji-ah and Kim Go-eun were part of the audience. SHINee's ONEW, Yoon Jong-shin, and AKMU's Lee Suhyun helped Rosé harmonize.

Rosé also took part in activities such as washing dishes and helping other members prepare meals for guests. The theme of Sea of Hope is that the star cast members would prepare meals for the guests, and perform songs by the beach.

Other than BLACKPINK's Rosé, SHINee's ONEW would take turns performing along with Yoon Jong-shin, and AKMU's Lee Suhyun. The show was marketed as a program that would offer a healing experience for its audience.

BLACKPINK's Rosé is currently in the U.S. working on new music, according to her agency. There are also rumors about Rosé working with Olivia Rodrigo after the two were spotted catching up with director, Petra Collins, and stylist, Devon Carlson. She was also spotted partying with musician, Dua Lipa.
