BLACKPINK had its sold-out two-day “Born Pink” concert at the My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi, Vietnam, last weekend, which also marked the group’s first time performing live for Vietnamese BLINKS – the group’s fans.
On the day of the concert, Rosé-biased BLINKS trended the hashtag #VietnameseWelcomesROSÉ and the phrase “ROSÉ LIGHTS UP HANOI.”
Included in most of the tweets were clips and pictures of the BLACKPINK member performing her solo song “On The Ground.”
During Rosé’s “On The Ground” solo performance, the pink lights from the light sticks were turned to white, giving her a white ocean to show support for her solo music.
In a video shared by TikTok user @1r9o9s7e, even fans outside the My Dinh National Stadium raised their light sticks and made their white ocean for Rosé during her solo.
