In the world of K-pop, the spotlight often fixates on image and physical appearance, making idols' body weight a frequent topic of discussion in various online communities. This spotlight, in turn, exerts immense pressure on many idols to uphold a slender physique. Regrettably, it is not uncommon for these idols to face harsh criticism when they gain a few pounds.

However, aespa's Karina is defying conventional standards, receiving praise from Korean netizens for her recent weight gain, which is unexpected.

One netizen brought up this topic of discussion and commented, "I think Karina gained a bit of weight," and included a recent photo of Karina.

Other netizens joined the conversation, and instead of criticizing Karina for her weight gain, they are praising her for looking healthier than before.

They commented, "Her face doesn't seem like she gained weight," "Oh, I like her better now...she was too skinny before," "I think she did gain weight than before," "I don't think she gained weight. She's still skinny," "She looks better with the weight," "She looks the same to me," "She's prettier and looks healthier," "I think I like her with thicker thighs," and "I can't tell the difference."
