aespa's Winter had a hard time containing her laughter when she was asked about Bang Si Hyuk's KakaoTalk messages.
On May 27th, aespa held a showcase and press conference for their first full album 'Armageddon.' During the press conference, there was a question regarding aespa being mentioned in the recent feud between Min Hee Jin and Bang Si Hyuk. In one of their KakaoTalk messages, Bang was seen asking Min Hee Jin if she could "crush" aespa, creating a meme online.
Karina answered that they were aware of the issue but they focused on practicing as this was their first full album. She also mentioned that they are on good terms with NewJeans. "We recently met each other at a music show. We exchanged hearts in the waiting area." She continued, "There is nothing to be concerned about. We are good colleagues."
Winter replied, "We didn't think too much of it. We just accepted as a sign that our full album may be off to a good start." But the camera captured the moment when Winter was asked if she had seen messages from Bang Si Hyuk, and she was seen having a hard time holding her laughter.
Netizens left comments such as, "I would have laughed too lol," "How can anyone hold this in lmaoooo," "My exact face reading this article," "Why would you ask her that loll" and more.
