Park Myungsoo’s Skinship With aespa Winter In ‘Armageddon’ Challenge Faces Backlash: ‘Why Is He Too Close?’

The content did not satisfy the fans.

aespa, a powerhouse K-pop group in the fourth generation, has been actively promoting their first-ever full album “Armageddon.”In addition to promoting as a group, the members have also been pursuing their individual activities.

Winter gained attention on social media on June 5 after comedian Park Myung Soo appeared with her in a preview skit, sparking interest among fans.

Based on the post, the comedian took on the character of Cha Eun Woo and playfully interacted with Winter. The teaser ends with Park Myung Soo and Winter leaning their heads together, accompanied by a caption that reads “Eunsoo and Minjeong’s Secret Story.”

The video quickly gained widespread attention on the internet, as it sparked discomfort among netizens because of the significant 30-year age difference between the two celebrities, the suggestive hints in the teaser, and Park Myung Soo’s past admission of admiration for Winter’s beauty.

The skit featuring Park Myung Soo and Winter sparked a wave of discontent among netizens, who took to social media to voice their discomfort.

Although the fire was already burning, it was further fueled when the comedian and Winter appeared together in a separate video. On June 13, aespa shared a “Armageddon”dance challenge video on their official social media, which starred Winter and Park Myung Soo.

Despite the comedian’s presence being a source of discomfort for fans, their outrage was further fueled by Park Myung Soo’s skinship with the idol at the end of the video. This involved him leaning his head closely to Winter’s, causing even more displeasure among viewers.

The video elicited the following responses from MYs:

  • “Winter stay right there I’m coming to save you.”
  • “Why is he so close?
  • “He really had to get close, wow.”

  • “Winter blink & breathe if you need help.”
  • “Please add a trigger warning next time.”
  • “Delete this post.”

Many criticized SM Entertainment for providing Winter with solo activities and social media content featuring the comedian.

  • “He’s so unnecessarily in close proximity of Winter’s personal space! Are you really tolerating this? @SMTOWNGLOBAL.”
  • “This is not how you promote Winter’s Solo Gigs! Winter deserves the best and not the worst!”
  • “Please don’t let my girls meet any trash men again. SM, you can do anything more creative and fun without them.”
