While fans have lately been able to see aespa on their first reality show, Synk Road, it has been some time since they were able to enjoy new content and music from them. The group’s last album, Girls, was released in June 2022.

Of course, the group has participated in several events since then, including GOT The Beat‘s first mini album, Stamp On It, the SMTOWN LIVE concerts, and Paris Fashion Week and other fashion events.

Yet, MYs have been disappointed by the group’s continued lengthy hiatus, and some fans feel that Karina is very much aware of this.

In a recent update on Dear U. Bubble, Karina sent a long message directly addressing fans’ concerns. She mentioned that, while she understands it’s been a long time, aespa have been hard at work putting together something new. More importantly, she empathized with MYs, claiming that she also knows what it’s like to anticipate her favorite artists’ release, and thanked them for their patience.

Fans were touched to see her thoughtful message, especially since Karina sent it in the early hours of the morning, right after finishing a schedule.

Yet, others expressed concerns that, amidst the demand for an aespa comeback, Karina and Winter’s hard work as part of GOT The Beat was perhaps not being acknowledged enough. Some MYs suspected Karina has seen this…

…and therefore rose in support of her.

Others raised concerns about SM Entertainment‘s management of aespa, suspecting that maybe Karina shares fans’ frustrations about aespa’s lengthy hiatus and infrequent comebacks. After all, this is not the first time Karina has apologized over the issue.

While it’s not yet clear what the comeback plans for aespa are, fans will undoubtedly soon be able to see their return to the spotlight. In the meantime they can continue to support the members in their different endeavours!
