aespa’s Winter shares father’s supportive message

On May 9, aespa member Winter took to her Bubble chat (an interaction platform for K-pop idols and their fans) to share a heartfelt conversation with her supporters. Amidst escalating tensions between HYBE and ADOR's CEO Min Hee Jin, Winter's words sparked considerable intrigue, particularly regarding her family's unwavering support.

During the chat, Winter subtly referenced a controversial remark allegedly made by HYBE’s head honcho Bang Si Hyuk. She recounted a moment on Instagram where she expressed feeling overwhelmed, prompting her brother to offer reassurance that he would handle everything for her. Winter then shared a message from her father, which resonated deeply with fans due to its apparent allusion to past comments made by Bang Si Hyuk regarding aespa.

Winter's father's message, in which he vowed to "crush them all" for his daughter, seemed to strike a chord with fans. His message said: "I'll crush them all for my daughter". Many interpreted it as a direct response to Bang Si Hyuk's use of the term "crush" in reference to aespa, as revealed by ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin during a highly charged press conference earlier in April.
