Rose Inae, who had previously announced her retirement from the entertainment industry, is making a comeback, signaling a new chapter in her life. She revealed her plans on the 3rd, stating, "I'm starting again. I was actually an actress. But after becoming a mom, my baby came first, and then at some point, I realized I had been living having forgotten about myself as a person."

She explained that after a significant period, she felt she had lost touch with her own identity.
