In the video, Rosé visited Disneyland Paris and enjoyed her free time visiting merch shops of popular Disney characters. While roaming around, one Mickey Mouse headband caught the eye of the idol.
She pointed out how it suited her red outfit and decided to buy it to complete the look. Although the card's number and details were censored to protect the star's personal information and privacy, its design wasn't really blurred completely, which was why people were able to tell that she was using a black card, a VVIP card.
In South Korea, only 1,000 people from the top 0.05% of the social class are issued this kind of card and there is an annual fee of USD 2,000. That 1,000 people were selected through a unanimous approval from Hyundai's committee and were given exclusive invites.
Some of the criteria include having a well-respected background and one must have at least 7.6 million USD in assets.
Alongside Rosé, Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa also have black cards.

Her wealth mostly comes from her main job as a singer. In 2016, Rosé debuted as the main vocalist of BLACKPINK and released multiple hits, such as "BOOMBAYAH," "DDU DU DDU DU," "How You Like That," "Kill This Love" and more.
Recently, BLACKPINK wrapped up their world tour "BORN PINK" joined by a million spectators. They reportedly earned USD 163.8 million from the USD 265 million total sales, making them the highest-grossing tour by a female artist debuting in the 2010s.
Aside from BLACKPINK, Rosé is also a successful soloist, making her solo debut in 2021 with her single album, "R." At the time, she recorded the highest-selling album's first-week sales among female soloists with 448,089 sold copies.
