aespa’s Karina gets hit on by a foreign woman; her shy reaction goes viral

aespa’s Karina, often praised for her unreal “AI-like” visuals, continues to draw attention wherever she goes. This includes strangers who don’t even know she’s a celebrity.

In a new video with W Korea, Karina appeared on the magazine’s YouTube channel for a relaxing ASMR-style makeup session. During the conversation, she was asked if she’s ever had memorable encounters with fans on the street. While she shared a few, it was the second story, one that didn’t involve a fan, that left viewers amused.

Karina explained that she was shopping for makeup when a foreign woman approached her and began complimenting her beauty. The woman then boldly asked for her Instagram account.
