1 | 1 Discuss | Share
From the expressions of lack of enthusiasm on stage, inappropriate behavior at the event, to misleading actions on social networks, all are creating a not very positive picture of aespa in the eyes of the public.
Superficial acting, each person dances in each style
Singing and dancing are two indispensable elements of an idol, but aespa often disappoints fans because she often lip-syncs and dances superficially. It is known that this situation has been widely condemned by the online community since the group went on a world tour in Europe, many videos recorded by fans of the group's performance have spread widely on social networks.
Specifically, the video recorded when the group performed the song Drama at the concert, fans commented that the group did not have the same energy as before.
In 2022, member Winter got into a noisy noise because of his lazy act during an event at the University. During the Black Mamba performance, Winter dropped the head rotation at the end of the song. It is worth mentioning that while the rest of the members still try to complete the movement even though their hair is loose, Winter with her neatly tied hairstyle is the only one who does not do it.
Poor charm in public
aespa is one of the groups that often becomes the focus of controversy in the online community because of their actions that are considered unsophisticated when appearing in public. Most recently, at the Asia Star Entertainer Awards 2025 ceremony on May 28, the group continued to be entangled in controversy because of their behavior that was considered ungraceful on stage.
Specifically, when the group's representative came to receive the award, the group leader Karina accidentally mispronounced the group's name. However, instead of quickly correcting and continuing the speech professionally, Karina laughed non-stop. This seemingly small incident led the whole group to laugh, making the atmosphere of the ceremony informal.
Winter then tried to continue speaking on behalf of the group, but couldn't keep his cool and burst out laughing. Finally, she pulled Ning Ning up to speak instead, and only then could the group's speech be completed.
The video recording this moment quickly went viral on social networks, attracting attention and many mixed comments from netizens. A part thinks that this is just a lovely and funny situation, not worthy of harsh condemnation. However, many others think that Karina as the leader needs to handle the situation more maturely, especially when this is an important award ceremony with a large audience watching in person and online. The group's lack of emotional control has caused aespa's image to continue to be questioned in the eyes of the public.
aespa's continuous series of "carefree" behavior on major stages has caused the group to face an increasing wave of condemnation. Even a part of the public questioned the group's respect for the awards and honors they received. Incidents that seemed to have passed were quickly "dug up", creating a complicated flow of public opinion about the attitude and professionalism of the group in public activities.
What is the reason?
It is known that all moments of ungraceful or somewhat superficial dancing of aespa come from the controversial actions of member Karina recently on social networks. Specifically, on May 28, Karina posted a picture of her with a black shirt with the number 2 printed on the shirt. Many people think that she is implicitly expressing political views, even though she herself does not directly mention it.
However, both Karina and SM Entertainment have verified that the female idol has no hidden meaning when posting the image, everything is completely a misunderstanding but the online community still does not believe it. Some people still condemn the female idol for this unintentional action.
But things seem to have gone further when Karina's image was used by a Korean television station as an example of the theme of what clothes are allowed to wear when going to the polls. Because of this, Karina is facing a wave of fierce condemnation in Korea and the other 3 girls of aespa are also exposed.
And yet, Karina's extreme international fans also involve many unrelated idols, such as Jennie ( BLACKPINK ), V (BTS) or Jang Wonyoung (IVE). This made the controversy even more explosive, Karina was scrutinized more by the fandom of the artist mentioned above to protect the idol.
Jennie was openly challenged by her junior, but didn't dare to say anything. Thảo Mai21:32:01 18/10/2024Recently, Jennie returned to the music scene with the single Mantra and a money-filled MV filmed entirely in Los Angeles, USA. Jennie's vibrant pop-dance immediately became a worldwide sensation.
