On March 14 episode of SBS' television show 'My Little Old Boy', ROSÉ featured as a guest.
During the talk, one of the hosts Seo Jang Hoon asked ROSÉ, "I heard that YG Entertainment picked you out of 700 auditionees at the audition. Is that true?"
ROSÉ shyly smiled and answered, "Ah, yes. I sang a song by American guitarist Jason Mraz at the audition."

ROSÉ paused for a while, then said, "During the training period, I fought with myself a lot. I fought hard as I had a strong desire to become a good singer."
She continued, "I had a hard time because of that. I pushed myself too much. I don't think I could ever go back to the time when I was a trainee."

ROSÉ said, "I spent my entire time singing and dancing. The only spare time I had was when I was having a meal."
She went on, "I feel like I could do that simply because I was young, and knew less about things than myself now. But I believe I was pretty cool then."
