Kim Go Eun and Rosé met on the JTBC variety show Sea of Hope, where they had some of the most wholesome interactions.

Of course, the song was no joke after it was released and gained attention for its unique concept, the members’ visuals, and of course, the choreography.

Despite Kim Go Eun’s friendship with Rosé, the actress had a truly relatable reason why she didn’t choose it in the end.
