★Since her debut last month, Karina has been wearing many styles with no bangs. This hairstyle has received reactions from Korean netizens such as ``It's beautiful'' and ``It's beautiful even when it's down, but it looks even better without it.''
Aespa is a new girl group from SM Entertainment, the first in 6 years since Red Velvet, so they are a hot topic. In particular, Karina is famous for appearing in Taemin's music video since her trainee days. The fact that she is trending just by having her bangs down shows that she is attracting a lot of attention.

Aespa's popularity is likely due to their fresh visuals, performance skills, and SM fandom. Also, are the fans under Red Velvet temporarily sheltering in place? Or maybe some fans have already moved away...


To be honest, I was surprised by Irene's uproar. With her beauty and being a popular member like her, I could imagine that she was a bit pompous backstage.
However, I never thought that such a bad side would be exposed. That commotion brought out the true faces of the other members. The supremacy of art, which only needs to be good on stage, may only be possible in the world of children, where money, connections, and jealousy do not intervene.


Because of that shock, I became somewhat distant from Red Velvet's stage world. Even casual fans are affected to such an extent.
By the time I can enjoy Red Velvet's stage world, Irene will have healed from her wounds and will be able to return to her public stage. She can't hate Irene just because something like that happened...


Aespa's Karina, who made her debut, has become extremely popular. Karina is responsible for half of aespa's popularity and presence, given her visually outstanding skills and leadership.
That being said, the other members also boast a perfect visual and growth-oriented skills and potential just like Karina. I can't even imagine what kind of performance will be in store six months or a year from now. In a year's time, they may be competing with BLACKPINK (currently in a dominating position) on the world stage.
The only time Karina will be able to rival BLACKPINK will be when Karina's girl crush charm is fully exposed. If she could add some coolness to her current kindness on stage, she would probably become a girl with a real talent. That's the only thing BLACKPINK doesn't match...Will that day ever come?
However, I don't want him to turn into a tough character with a different face behind the dressing room just because he becomes popular...
