Fans are annoyed as TXT members’ names appear in aespa’s teaser image

Due to the staff’s mistake, TXT members’ names were included in a teaser photo for girl group aespa’s new album “Girls”.

Recently, SM Entertainment released teaser images for aespa’s second mini-album “Girls”, raising fans’ interest. In the teaser photos, aespa members were posing in a room decorated with colorful props. The members made attractive expressions as they stared at the camera alongside avatar characters whose images are similar to themselves.

However, some fans’ reactions were very cold. This is because the names of SOOBIN and BEOMGYU, members of TXT, were seen on the stickers behind aespa’s Giselle. In fact, these props are known to have been used in the teaser for TXT’s “The Chaos Chapter: FREEZE”. Some fans of aespa criticized SM Entertainment for this.

They strongly protested, saying, “SM Entertainment did a slapdash job”, “I thought aespa would be collaborating with TXT” and “They prepared it with no sincerity.”

It is said that the album’s quality was lowered due to the mistake of SM Entertainment’s staff. In particular, they pointed out that aespa and TXT are under different agencies, and that they cannot understand. However, some people see it as a simple “happening”, saying that employees can make mistakes since they are human.

Meanwhile, aespa will release ‘Girls’ at the same time in Korea and the US on July 8th, and start a comeback promotion. Expectations for the achievements of aespa are high as they have gained great popularity both domestically and overseas.
