aespa’s Karina reveals surprising habit fans never noticed

Karina of aespa has revealed an unexpected hobby and a quirky personal habit that even many fans may not know about.

In a video released on W Korea’s YouTube channel on June 2 KST, Karina participated in a Q&A session following a photo shoot, answering questions submitted by fans.

When asked about a surprising hobby or habit, Karina shared that she is currently learning how to draw and attends an art academy. She also revealed a unique speech habit, explaining that she often repeats the last word or phrase spoken by the person she is talking to without realizing it.

Karina also spoke about a photo she still keeps on her phone and refuses to delete. She recalled taking a picture with her fellow aespa members while wearing outfits from the group’s debut-era song "Black Mamba" on her birthday.

According to Karina, the photo was never released because it required approval from all members before being shared publicly. “We were all standing side by side, and it’s such a cute picture,” she said. “It’s a shame it was never released, but I still keep it.”

Meanwhile, aespa recently returned with its second full-length album, 'LEMONADE,' which has topped iTunes global music charts following its release on May 29.
