In JTBC’s entertainment program “Knowing Bros,” which aired on Oct 23rd, girl group aespa appeared as the new transfer students.
Seo Jang-hoon asked Karina about her casting story, “You were originally an SNS star. I heard you were cast through your DM”. Karina answered, “At first I thought it was a scam, too.” Lee Soo-geun then made everyone laugh by saying, “They didn’t leave a voice message?”
Karina went on to say, “They said they just contacted me because they were interested in my photos. They asked if I wanted to be an idol. They told me to trust them because they are from a big company. Of course, I refused. So a few months later, I was cast again through my DM by another person. I was cast twice only through DM,” she said. Lee Sang-min made people laugh by asking, “Did you work harder on your SNS when you denied their first attempt?” to which Karina replied, “A little.“
