Previously, Chinese entertainment media outlet Sinan Entertainment News raised suspicions that Rosé had taken drugs while partying with acquaintances. 

This suspicion arose from a photo posted by a foreign brand’s creative director, which showed several people, including Rosé, enjoying a party. The object placed on the table, in particular, was suspected to be drugs, leading to the spread of the rumors.
