Singer Gains Attention After His Label Uploads A Fake News Report About His “Relationship” And “Breakup” With BLACKPINK’s Rosé

He’s a well-known fanboy of Rosé.

Popular Hong Kong singer Kaho Hung gained attention after his label uploaded a “making of” video for his latest single, “My Secret Park,” a song believed to be inspired by BLACKPINK’s Rosé. The video features a fake news report about a “relationship” between Kaho and Rosé.

Kaho has always been a well-known fanboy of Rosé. When it was revealed that his song would be released on Valentine’s Day with the title “My Secret Park,” combined with an image teaser featuring a girl styled like Rosé, fans had no doubt the song was inspired by the K-Pop artist, whose last name is “Park.”

The “making of” video for the song’s MV also caught the attention of many netizens. Unlike regular “making of” videos where scenes of the shooting are shown, this video is in the form of a fake news report, with a headline reading “Kaho Hung And Rosé Couldn’t Overcome Being Apart, Report Of A Breakup Becomes A Hot Topic.”

The fake news report begins by showing photos of Kaho and Rosé using the same items and posing the same way, alluding to a relationship between the two.

Recently, rumors circulated that Hong Kong singer Kaho Hung and Korean female artist Rosé appear to have broken up. From photos taken by Kaho’s fans, Kaho seemed tired and had a lot on his mind when he attended BLACKPINK’s concert.

The “news report” also features a fake interview segment with a voice-over acting as Kaho and talking about the “relationship” between him and Rosé.

Do you understand? First of all, we’re not at the same height [level]. And we also live in different places. So lately, it’s been really tough. My heart aches.

The fake report then says there are rumors the two broke up because Kaho has moved on to NewJeans. The video cuts to an actual clip of Kaho talking about Rosé and NewJeans, but the original context was about the music he was listening to.

Kaho: I’m only listening to NewJeans today.

Staff: Don’t you like Rosé?

Kaho: It’s over.
