On May 27, aespa held a showcase to celebrate the release of their first full-length album, “Armageddon”, and discussed their comeback.
At the event, aespa was asked about Bang Si-hyuk’s old message to ADOR’s CEO Min Hee-jin, asking if it’s possible to “Trample on aespa”. This led to the atmosphere in the room becoming tense, and the members were visibly struggling to maintain their composure, with camera flashes going off all around.
Winter, in particular, was seen covering her face and smiling, which led to the viral article titled “Winter Struggles to Hold Back Laughter at Bang Si-hyuk’s Question.”
This article quickly spread across various online communities, drawing significant attention from netizens.
Netizens reacted with comments like, “I would have laughed too,” “How could she hold it in?” “There’s no way anyone could hold back,” “It’s good that this became a laughable issue,” “I hope aespa continues to do well,” “The members seem mentally strong,” and “I have the same expression right now.”
The fact that questions about recent controversies were brought up at their showcase could have been a burden for the members. However, they responded calmly and even showed a sense of humor, earning support from netizens.
Meanwhile, aespa has made an official comeback with their 1st full-length album, featuring double title tracks “Supernova” and “Armageddon”, and is actively promoting it.
