BLACKPINK member Rosé recently opened up about her struggles with depression and burnout during an honest conversation.

On December 5, a video with Rosé was uploaded to Daesung's YouTube channel, 'ZIP DAESUNG.' In the episode, Rosé shared her personal experiences and challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"I had shingles during the pandemic," Rosé revealed, explaining, "It was because I kept thinking, 'What if no one looks for BLACKPINK anymore? What will I do with my life then?'"

Rosé added, "Since I was 16, my whole life was about becoming a singer. But at that moment, I thought, 'What if I lose my job at this age?'"

Daesung asked if the stress led to her shingles, and Rosé replied, "Yes. This is the first time I'm talking about this, but I’ve also dealt with depression. It’s like a cold for the mind," she said, drawing understanding and support from viewers.

She also reflected on her workaholic tendencies and how it impacted her mental health. "Work is my hobby. I only feel accomplished when I work. But when I take a break, I don’t want to do anything. The problem is, because I’m a workaholic, I just kept going," she said.

Rosé admitted that her non-stop work habits left her feeling drained. "I’ve been a bit burnt out. Maybe not completely, but I worked every single day. I thought it meant I was growing, but recently I realized it wasn’t like that at all. My brain just shut down."

To recover, she decided to take time for herself. "I realized if I kept going like that, I wouldn’t be able to do what I’m supposed to. Only I can take responsibility for myself, so I took a full day to rest," she explained.

Rosé shared how that break changed her perspective. "It was the first time I truly felt that way. Before, it felt like I built a cement wall around myself because there was so much to do. But after resting, I could finally focus on things I hadn’t been able to."

Fans have been praising Rosé for her bravery in opening up about such personal struggles, expressing their support and admiration for her honesty.

Actor Jung Hae In is finding himself in a very awkward situation over his social media following, and even his good friend Lee Jong Suk has shared his thoughts on the matter!

Recently, Jung Hae In's personal social media account has been flooded with requests from fans to unfollow actor Kim Soo Hyun, who is facing serious personal issues and a legal dispute.

This controversy started after Kim Soo Hyun was edited out of the MBC variety show Good Day, and the public began questioning whether continuing to follow him on social media was a sign of support.

The situation became more complicated when fellow "88s" group member Im Si Wan unfollowed everyone on his list except his agency.

Fans quickly pressured Jung Hae In to do the same, but many felt this demand was unfair.

What really made headlines, though, was Lee Jong Suk’s unexpected reaction to the whole situation. Lee Jong Suk, who is close to Jung Hae In, seemed taken aback by the pressure his friend was under.

He was quoted saying, “It’s just a follow. People need to stop overreacting. Jung Hae In is his own person, and his choices should be respected.” His words have left fans in shock, especially since Lee Jong Suk is usually more private.

While Jung Hae In has done nothing wrong, he’s now caught in the middle of a social media frenzy. Should he unfollow Kim Soo Hyun just to please the public, or should he stand his ground and stay true to his friendships?

Fans are eagerly waiting to see how he will handle this situation, especially with Lee Jong Suk’s support behind him.
