The internet is abuzz with the playful exchange between BLACKPINK’s Rosé's co-stars, Bruno Mars, and actor-model Evan Mock. What began as a simple Instagram post by Rosé showcasing behind-the-scenes moments from her latest music video Toxic Till the End turned into an entertaining back-and-forth that has left fans in stitches.

When Rosé posted a series of photos with Evan Mock, including some cozy moments from the shoot, Bruno Mars, her APT. co-star, couldn’t resist chiming in. His comment sparked a wave of reactions, with fans humorously speculating whether he was being a protective friend or feigning jealousy. The K-pop idol replied with a smirk emoji. He commented,

“Wait a minute!!! Who TF is that???”

However, Bruno didn’t stop there. Taking to his own Instagram, he added another layer to the fun, posting, “So this your new man? Where’d you meet him, at an all-girls school?” Attempting to playfully disguise his jest, he signed off with, “- a short story by Bruno Mars.”

Evan Mock wasn’t one to let the banter slide. He swiftly responded with his witty comeback, sharing an Instagram story that featured a collage of him and the Gone singer donning ties reminiscent of school uniforms. He captioned it,
