Netizens mourn & pray for a fan of BLACKPINK's Rosé, who was killed in the Myanmar protests hours before her solo debut
AKP STAFF
It's been reported that back on March 12, at least 12 civilians were killed in the ongoing sit-in protests in Myanmar by those opposing the nation's military coup.
Then, on Twitter, fans came together to share the sorrowful news that one of the victims was a K-Pop fan. A 19-year old university student, Lin Htet was a huge fan of BLACKPINK's Rosé, according to fans. He was very excited about Rosé's solo debut and had saved up money to order a copy of her 1st single album.
Many fans were moved to tears after finding out that Lin Htet was killed just hours before Rosé released her 1st single album '-R-' and the full MV for her title track, "On The Ground".
Imagine being a young person who gets killed in a fight to defend democracy in your country only for some kpop website to put out an article with an accent on how that made you miss Rose's solo. Imagine some kpop fans on twitter talking about your tragic death and then writing hashtag blackpinkrose.
"Kagayakugucci was so brave in her fight against dictatorship! A true Carat!" Unreal.
