We'll summarize all the controversies that have erupted since Espa's debut. Check them all out, from real reviews to music video plagiarism, Gisele's disparagement of black people, and the hamster controversy!

 

 

1. Was the rumor about the controversy surrounding Aespa true?

Do you remember the 'fake text' incident surrounding Karina before Espa's debut?
At the time, someone claiming to be an acquaintance of mine from my SM trainee days revealed text messages that were badmouthing the company and senior singers.

However, it was later revealed that this was fabricated, and SM took strong legal action.
Karina's high school classmates even posted articles directly refuting the rumors, so this was hardly a fabrication, but a fabrication of the worst kind.

2. Are all of the members of aespa really visual geniuses?

There are more reviews than you might think about seeing the members of aespa in person.
One fan review said this:

- Karina: She really looks like AI, her jawline is amazing, she's tall and her aura is no joke.
- Giselle: She looks better in real life than on screen, her face is small and thin.
- Winter: Almost the same as the screen, but smaller and fairy-like.
- Ningning: #1 in real beauty. Her facial features are gorgeous and her style is a mix of traditional beauty and cuteness.

The bottom line is that all four are real crazy. No real holes.

3. Suspicion of music video plagiarism, is it really plagiarism?

Espa's debut song 'Black Mamba' had several plagiarism controversies in its music video.

SM Entertainment stated that they contacted the writer directly to resolve the misunderstanding, and that some issues were resolved through discussion.

4. Gisele's Blackface Lip Sync Controversy

The song became controversial because its lyrics contained derogatory language toward black people.

The reaction overseas was greater than domestically, and eventually Gisele posted an official apology on Twitter.
Among fans, some said it was a mistake and should be overlooked, while others said more caution should have been taken.

5. Winter's Hamster Cat Abuse Controversy

Winter is in the app bubble where she communicates with her fans. “I raised 25 hamsters” I have said that.
But the problem was that hamsters are solitary animals, and I didn't know this.
There was even talk of 'Where did the 24 go?'

I also uploaded a cat video,
There was even a controversy over cat abuse because there was a scene where a cat's face was roughly touched and startled.
