Even in periods without group promotions, aespa’s Karina remains one of K-pop’s most talked-about idols.
Recently, she found herself at the center of an online debate after photos and clips from her Weverse livestreams, showing her with little to no makeup, began circulating — igniting discussions about her natural appearance.
The Viral Post That Sparked Controversy
A trending post on Pann, a popular South Korean online forum, accused Karina of looking “ordinary” without her signature stage makeup.
The post read,
“Karina really needs full stage makeup. She looks stunning when she’s fully glammed up, but when her makeup is lighter, she just looks like a regular person.”
The statement quickly gained traction, sparking mixed reactions among Korean netizens.
While some agreed, many others condemned the post as unnecessarily harsh and rooted in unrealistic beauty standards — especially for female idols who are constantly under public scrutiny.

Netizens Rush to Karina’s Defence
Fans and netizens alike rallied to defend Karina, emphasizing her natural beauty and effortless charm.
They reminded others of her famous SM Entertainment audition story, where she reportedly passed after being asked to wash off all her makeup — a testament to her raw visuals. One top comment on Pann stated,
“Even barefaced, Karina’s still pretty. Her delicate and balanced features make her natural look quietly beautiful.”
Another added,
“FYI: Some Pann girls didn’t even pass the SM audition after sending heavily edited photos, but Karina got in after showing her bare face.”
Many pointed out that Karina’s softer, unfiltered appearance revealed a different type of beauty — one that feels more relatable, gentle, and elegant.
Timing Raises Questions About Envy
Several commenters questioned the timing of the hate post, which appeared shortly after Karina’s appointment as Chanel Beauty’s newest ambassador. Some netizens speculated that jealousy might have motivated the sudden criticism.
As one fan sarcastically put it,
“Of course they’re mad… Karina’s repping Prada and Chanel while their fave is probably doing burger joint sponsorships. Keep winning, Karina!”
Her growing list of luxury brand partnerships — including Prada and Chanel — has solidified her reputation as one of the most sought-after fashion icons among fourth-generation idols, making her a frequent target of envy-fueled discussions online.
A Testimony to Natural Beauty and Grace
Despite the negativity, the debate only further highlighted Karina’s versatility and grace. Whether performing on stage in full glam or casually chatting with fans barefaced, she continues to exude confidence and poise.
Fans praised her for maintaining humility and authenticity in an industry often obsessed with perfection.
Her calm response — simply continuing with her livestreams without addressing the hate — has been interpreted as a quiet yet powerful statement of self-assurance.
As one netizen summed it up perfectly:
“Karina doesn’t need heavy makeup to shine — she’s already radiant without it.”
In the end, the controversy proved that true beauty isn’t defined by layers of makeup but by confidence and authenticity, something Karina embodies effortlessly.
