SEOUL, Dec. 6 (Yonhap) -- Blackpink's Rose released her first solo full-length album, "Rosie," on Friday, further solidifying her global presence.

The album features 12 tracks, including the newly released "Toxic Till the End."

Describing the new album, Rose shared, "This album honestly captures the not-so-beautiful stories I've experienced while navigating my 20s, which hasn't always been an easy time." 

She participated in writing and composing all the tracks on the album.
