Male Dancer Goes Viral After Stealing The Show From aespa’s Karina
A fancam of aespa‘s Karina performing “Set The Tone” at the 2025 Golden Disc Awards has recently gone viral with over 2.3 million views on X. She looked gorgeous dancing to the hit song.
While most of their performances for “Set The Tone” on tour features only female dancers, they wanted to do something different for the awards show. They hired male dancers to feature in the performance as well. Due to the angle of the fancam, the male dancer ended up being the main character for the moment!

LOL, a trait of aespa’s dancers: They think they’re aespa.

The way he gazed into the camera also reinforced the notion. Many had thought he was the idol instead.

I thought he was the idol, but he turned out to be aespa’s dancer.

Others defended him, claiming that he was simply doing his job. Previously, another dancer for aespa received flak for “over-performing” in a reels with Karina.
