BLACKPINK’s Rosé once again made headlines, this time for opening up about her personal life. The singer recently spoke candidly about her dating life and addressed whether she has a boyfriend during a podcast appearance.

The global K-pop star appeared on Call Her Daddy, where host Alex Cooper posed the inevitable question about her relationship status. While Rosé stopped short of offering a direct confirmation, her response was enough to spark widespread speculation among fans.

“I feel if I say no, it’s such a lie, you can tell. I am looking for love," Rosé said, instantly setting social media buzzing.

Although the moment amused fans, Rosé admitted that conversations about her dating life often make her anxious, largely due to the way relationships involving public figures are viewed and scrutinised.

“I’ve never been in a public relationship, and a lot of that is because I want to protect the person I love. It hurts more when people close to me get attacked. I’m okay being in the public eye it’s my job but it feels unfair when someone I care about gets dragged into it," she explained.

The singer further shared that the intensity of her fan base makes navigating romantic relationships even more challenging.

“Right now, with the fan base I’ve experienced, I don’t know if I feel completely safe. Maybe in the future, if I really trust the media to protect me, I’d feel more comfortable. But for now, I think a lot of people understand what that feels like."
