Recently, Korean netizens gathered their attention to a video in which Karina bluntly spoke about her honest feelings toward the group's popular track "Supernova." During the YouTube show 'Hyell's Club,' Karina sat down with Hyeri and spoke about various topics. 

On the show, Hyeri asked, "Which song was better, 'Armageddon' or 'Supernova' when you first heard it?" to which Karina replied, "Totally 'Armageddon.' It was so good that we wanted to record the song quickly, learn the choreography, and perform on music shows right away." Karina then added, "But then 'Supernova' was received much better unexpectedly," and then asked, "Why do you guys like the song? I'm really curious."

After hearing Karina's opinion on the track "Supernova," fans gathered in a popular online community to give their insight on the song and why they like it. Korean netizens commented:

"'Supernova' is light and kitschy, and that seems to be what made it more popular. I like 'Armageddon' more, but I think 'Armageddon' is the more perplexing one, haha."

"I first heard both Aespa’s 'Armageddon' and 'Supernova' because of 'Whiplash', but neither was really my taste."

"Honestly, I liked it right from the first listen."

"'Supernova' is so addictive, haha… 'Su-su-su-supernova,' and the music video was unique and beautiful."

"Both songs felt perplexing, but 'Supernova' had this crazy addictive quality, so I thought maybe that’s why it was released. With 'Armageddon,' I was more like, ‘What’s this?’ But now I enjoy both."

"From the moment I heard 'Supernova,' I just knew it would be a hit, haha."

"'Supernova' is super addicting. I keep singing 'Su-su-su-supernova' too. lol."

"I thought the opposite of Karina. I thought 'Supernova' was much better and 'Armageddon' was more perplexing."

"I like 'Whiplash' the best. lol."

"'Supernova' got stuck in my head as soon as I heard it ."

"I'm not their fan but I've listened to 'Supernova' for two hours straight the first time I heard it. lol."

"It's because 'Supernova' sounds like it's targeting the general public more."
