A photo of Winter at the event garnered attention on the Korean forum site Nate Pann, with the idol smiling and interacting with fans.
Yet, despite past concerns about how female idols get treated amid these kinds of rumors, netizens shared relief that Winter seemed to be continuing her schedule with the support of fans. Many also added that the hate Winter was getting seemed to come from non-fans or those who had been “haters” already.
- She’s a girl group member anyway, it’s not like she relies on fanservice with male fans or anything. Whether she gets dating rumors or not, who even cares. Looking now, it’s only the haters freaking out by themselves lol. The well-known fans didn’t even leave the fandom.
- The company didn’t release a statement and probably issued a no-comment order. What can she even say? For the fans who spent a lot of money to be there, the best she can do right now is smile brightly. I don’t get why people who aren’t even fans are yelling about ‘betrayal’.
- Actual fans aren’t leaving, but girls who aren’t even fans are doing the whole ‘betrayal’ act and whining. It’s hilarious lol. Why are you mad? LOL You just hated aespa from the start and now you’re pretending to be disappointed like you ever liked them. So funny. Girl-group fandoms barely have parasocial fans anyway lol.
- I swear I’m not even their fan, but their fans seem seriously mature. They criticize the wrongdoing when needed, but also love and support her when they want to. How do they all share that mindset? Isn’t a real fan someone who scolds her until she snaps out of it and still embraces her afterwards? If everyone leaves the moment there’s a controversy, is that even a fan?”
