5 songs by The Rose to listen to when you’re down and need a hug
Since their debut in 2017, Korean Indie-Rock band The Rose has never failed to impress us with their talent and touch us with their beautiful songs. They are known for their humble beginnings, busking in the streets of Hongdae, and successfully establishing their band’s name, making music their way to express what they feel and inspire the people who listen to it. They have been such an inspiration to Black Roses.

From the very beginning until this moment, they have shared their musical artistry with us, releasing songs that touch the hearts of many and offer comfort to those going through difficult times. If you’re feeling down, listen to these heartwarming songs by The Rose and let their music embrace you.
1. She’s in the Rain
“She’s in the rain, you wanna hurt yourself I’ll stay with you.
you wanna make yourself go through the pain, It’s better to be held than holding on.”
She’s in the Rain was released in 2018 as one of the tracks on The Rose’s mini-album Dawn. The song explores the feeling of loneliness and sadness. The rain is a metaphor that describes emotional heaviness and struggles in the song. Whenever I listen to this song, I always feel that I’m not alone.
2. Time
“This is the last time closing scene to your story,
Thank you for your time, cheers to a new opening”
Released in 2022 as one of the tracks on their album HEAL. The song Time is one of The Rose’s comforting songs that conveys the message that endings are also beginnings. The song is also about acceptance and moving forward, that there are some things that we can’t control in life and that we have to move on and keep going in life. Healing does not happen overnight, but with time, we can gradually heal and learn to accept things as it is.
3. Tomorrow
“Tomorrow will be okay, Don’t worry too much
as long as we keep hoping for better.”
The song Tomorrow was released in 2025. It expresses hope and positivity in life that tomorrow will be okay and you don’t have to worry too much about what the future holds. Look forward to tomorrow with a positive mindset and never stop hoping for a better future. We may make many mistakes in life, but we can always choose to become better tomorrow because who we were yesterday does not define who we are today or who we can become in the future. Don’t worry about tomorrow because tomorrow will worry about itself. Stop being so anxious about tomorrow!
4. Utopia
“Welcome home, don’t you cry, just close your eyes. Feel the silence hold you and
Let go, we’re breathing slow, Let go, our utopia”
Released recently, it is about being in a place where every broken heart is glowing, a place where there is peace and happiness. Listening to this song makes you feel that you are in a place of pure bliss; it takes you to another dimension where you can let go of your worries and breathe freely. As Black Rose, our utopia is always with The Rose, and their music is healing for everyone.
5. Lifeline
“If the world is comin’ down, I won’t let you drown
Even if you start to lose your hold, I won’t let you go, no“
Lifeline was released in 2023 as one of the songs on The Rose’s album, DUAL. Personally, I really love this song so much because it is a perfect representation of The Rose to Black Roses because their music is hope, inspiration, comfort, and encouragement to the ones who feel like giving up in life, they are their lifeline.
Fighting bes, sending my virtual hug. You got this!
