1. [+164] There are rumors going around that it's an NCT member ㅜㅠ

2. [+277] Who is her boyfriend that he's leaving marks like this... how blessed

3. [+126] If she knew she had something like that, at least attempt to hide it by letting your hair down. How much of an idiot does she htink of her fans and staff to leave it showing like that?

4. [+203] With all this coming out, I'm really curious who her boyfriend is now ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ let us know!!

5. [+141] I don't care that she's dating but she's honestly digging her own grave with these scandals now.. Winter-ya, you gotta know your limits

6. [+448] How hard was he kissing her that even make-up can't hide the kiss mark..

7. [+272] But seeing as how Winter was on her phone the entire time on 'The Manager', that means her boyfriend's doing nothing at home too to be able to have so much time to chat back and forth

8. [+326] This is undeniable.. there's no reason there should be a bruise there at all. Unless you want to claim that it's dirt back there ㅜ

9. [+85] If a kiss mark is that obvious, why didn't she just let her hair down, why tie it up at all..

10. [+97] Hard to shield this when we all know that it's not easy to get bruised in that spot..

11. [+111] A girl group member with a kiss mark...?!?;;;; does SM not care about managing their idols anymore???

12. [+42] THat's an undeniable kiss mark. I always thought she'd be the most quiet member but she's actually the most problematic ㅎㅎ I wonder who her boyfriend is, and if she's dating within the company

13. [+29] She may be talented but she's pretty awful at taking care of her image

14. [+164] I never liked her since her hamster and cat scandal..

15. [+50] Most of Aespa's fans are women anyway, I don't think a kiss mark will affect them at all

16. [+46] ㅋㅋ Even non-celebrities try to cover up their kiss marks if they have one showing like this, she's an amateur;; she should've tried to cover it more

17. [+91] Seems like Winter likes showing off her relationship ㅎ working hard on her Katalk replies! working hard on the kissing!;

18. [+26] Her boyfriend is Jaehyun~

1. [+287] It's a type of variety show that follows you around with cameras so I understand checking your phone and all but she's still technically being filmed and working to produce media for viewers to consume. I like Aespa and Winter's my favorite member but I understand why viewers found this behavior problematic. All of what they're saying is right.

2. [+178] It doesn't feel right to hate on someone just for being on their phone but I've really never seen someone checking their phone so blatantly like this while filming a reality program

3. [+130] She has a boyfriend

4. [+125] Funny how the same people criticizing her are the same people doing so through their phones right now ㅋㅋㅋㅋ celebrities are people, too.. they can be on their phones. It's not like she was doing this while sitting in a filming studio, what's with the hate?

5. [+132] Phone addiction is pretty common these days

6. [+58] Isn't this what all of our lives are like though~

7. [+14] So what is so wrong with this? It's not like she checked her phone in the middle of an interview or talk show, it's a variety show that's meant to observe her in her daily life..

8. [+17] Stop with the forced hate

9. [+4] I'm just like her though so I can relate to her actions

10. [+2] Winter's got a boyfriend ㅋㅋㅋ
