Many fans are thrilled for the imminent solo debut of BLACKPINK member Rosé. Numerous people think that the co-member of Jennie, Lisa, and Jisoo is the most talented member of the South Korean girl group. Aside from being good at singing and dancing, Rosé has also been giving her devoted supporters stunning visuals in her commercial posters and magazine covers.
Recently, avid followers of Rosé saw the other side of her when some snaps during her graduation made rounds online. In the photos, the BLACKPINK member appears so innocent and fledgling while wearing what appears to be her school uniform. The other photo showed the "Lovesick Girls" singer sporting curtain bangs and short hair.
Many fans noticed how Rosé looks so fresh and beautiful even without makeup. Reports have it that the said images were taken before the songstress flew off to Korea and was launched as an official member of BLACKPINK. Some netizens also praised the "Ice Cream" singer for her transformation when she became a professional performer.
Rosé, most of the time, appears classy with oozing charisma in her most recent photos. Others stated that the BLACKPINK member has grown up very well, saying that puberty has hit her so hard.
Before 2021 came in, YG Entertainment confirmed that Rosé and Lisa would be having their solo debuts very soon. The talent agency previously announced that Jisoo would be releasing a solo album. However, since she is currently busy working on her upcoming new series titled "Snowdrop," it would be pushed back temporarily, which means the spotlight would be on Rosé and Lisa.
Multiple outlets suggested that Rosé and Lisa are already preparing their solo tracks. It was even claimed that the New Zealand singer based in South Korea would start shooting her music video in the coming weeks. However, YG Entertainment has not yet released any confirmation about these reports up to this writing.
Aside from their forthcoming solo debuts, Rosé and Lisa are also busy rehearsing for their imminent virtual concert with Jennie and Jisoo called "The Show." Supposedly, BLACKPINK would treat their fans with pre-recorded performances before the end of 2020 as a way of saying thank you for their unwavering support, especially when they dropped their latest LP titled "The Album" in October last year.
Unfortunately, Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo, and Rosé were forced to cancel the concert and decided to move it on Jan. 31, 2021, after the number of COVID-19 cases in South Korea started spiking again. In their official social media accounts, the BLACKPINK members explained that they had to postpone the virtual concert to follow the health protocols set by South Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare.
In their upcoming event, Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo, and Rose are expected to perform some of their popular songs such as "Ice Cream," "How You Like That," "Kill This Love," DDU-DU DDU-DU" and "Lovesick Girls" among others. It remains to be seen id BLACKPINK would have guest to perform with them.

BLACKPINK Rosé and Lisa Have Been In Process of Filming Their Solo Debut MVs
On Wednesday, Dec. 30, 2020, OSEN confirmed that YG Entertainment is gearing up for the solo debuts of members Rosé and Lisa. Reports have stated that the two members were juggling filming their respective music videos, debut preparations, and preparation for their upcoming online concert, "THE SHOW (YG PALM STAGE - 200 BLACKPINK: THE SHOW", which is scheduled to be held on Jan 31, 2021.
The girl group's company, YG Entertainment, also confirmed the news, saying Rosé and Lisa are working hard to prepare for their solo debuts. Fellow BLACKPINK member, Jisoo, will prepare for her solo debut after she is done filming her drama, "Snowdrop."
Now, in reports released on Monday, Jan. 4, it has been revealed that both Rosé and Lisa have finished filming their respective solo debut music videos. Reports have also stated that YG Entertainment will be releasing their solo debut schedules soon, but no official date has been announced. It is speculated that Rosé will be debuting as a soloist first, followed by Lisa, then Jisoo.
Are you excited for Rosé and Lisa's solo debut?
YG Entertainment first announced Rosé would be debuting as a soloist back in June 2020, in a statement concerning BLACKPINK and the member's plans for the future. The company revealed that Rosé has been preparing for her solo debut for over a year now and that it was taking up more time than expected since they were planning to release an album with multiple songs instead of just one digital single release.
During their original statement, YG Entertainment confirmed Rosé would be debuting as a soloist in Sept. 2020, after the release of BLACKPINK's first-ever full-length studio album. In their statement, they also said Lisa was in the process of preparing for her solo debut and that they were starting up preparations for member Jisoo's solo release.
In the end, however, neither Rosé nor Lisa debuted as a soloist in 2020 and BLACKPINK released their first-ever full-length studio album, "THE ALBUM", in Oct. 2020. While many were upset with the company for delaying Rosé's solo, it was discovered in "BLACKPINK: Light Up The Sky", BLACKPINK's Netflix documentary, that Rosé was a perfectionist who did not want to release music that was not up to par to her standards. It was further revealed that Rosé is highly involved with the creative process of her music.
YG Entertainment producer and founder of The Black Label, Teddy Park, also revealed in the documentary that though they are aware of how fans are asking for more music, they are very selective in what music they put out.
Jennie was the first BLACKPINK member to debut as a soloist. In 2018, she made her solo debut with the song "SOLO," which debuted at number one on the Gaon Music Chart and topped the Billboard World Digital Songs chart. "SOLO" achieved a triple crown for ranking atop the download, digital, and streaming charts.
While waiting for this duo to have their individual solo debuts, let's check out this song of them covering "L.O.V.E":
