In the 11th NPOP episode featuring aespa, Karina denied that she was perfect. She named a unique physical feature of hers that often bothers her.

Compared to my height, my arms are very short…

— Karina

Karina considers her arms to be too short for her frame. This becomes obvious only when seeing her photos next to her fellow members.

The unique choice caught the attention of netizens who quickly came to her defense. Many did not expect her to mention this specific feature, saying, “Legit? I never noticed,” and, “I never knew.” They noted that instead of her short arms making her appear strange, it gives her a cuter look: “She looks cute,” “It makes her look more adorable,” and, “It makes her cuter.” Others were surprised that such a feature is considered an insecurity at all.
