Karina and Lee Jae Wook confirm they are dating
Source: Star News via Nate
[+48, -9] Karina fans are flipping out.. they've already posted pictures of themselves ripping up her photocards, it's a mess
[+21, -2] SM's stocks have plummeted ㅋㅋ
[+17, -2] I don't think this will be good for her team. It feels quite fast for a dating scandal already as a girl group member.
[+7, -4] I think it's because they're similar age and it's not like they've had any other scandals separately ㅎㅎ
[+4, -0] It may not have affected Karina's image but SM's stocks are ruined right now
[+1, -0] Well, that's it for Aespa then...

[+247, -8] Have a happy love. Nothing wrong with a beautiful man and woman dating like this ㅎㅎ
[+95, -16] ㅋㅋ Why is it when celebrities get caught, they're always like "we're still getting to know each other" ㅋㅋㅋ getting to nkow what? What more is there to know?
[+35, -2] Ugh, just thinking of all the hate they're going to get makes me think they'll break up soon.. I hope people leave them alone
[+24, -3] Well, that's it for Aespa then.. feels way too fast
[+21, -1] Male actors have nothing to lose with these relationships. If anything, it makes their image stronger, that they're desirable. It's always the girl groups that suffer. She's only four years in, at her peak, how many male fans do you think she's going to lose? It's always best for girl groups to just hold it in and go public in their late twenties. Yes, idols are free to love, but you have to calculate the risks for not only yourself but your groupmates too.
[+17, -0] Just shows that no matter how busy idols are, they're still doing it all
[+15, -3] It's over for Aespa now
[+14, -2] They look so damn good together..
[+13, -3] Karina lacks a professional mindset...

[+318, -66] Their popularity's going to drop~
[+222, -39] Aespa's at their peak right now, it's over for them ㅠㅠ
[+118, -7] I'm shocked at Lee Jae Wook's age... I thought he was in his mid-30s this whole time
[+51, -2] They must really be in love to go public so fast. Most either deny it or ignore it completely this early on... quite amazing for a 4th generation girl group member. I wonder if this will open the floodgates to everyone else's relationships ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[+31, -5] We still have Jang Wonyoung and Winter left
[+49, -27] Why is this goddess dating such a nugu ㅋ
[+16, -1] Who is he, though? Never heard of him until now...

[+528, -28] What a beautiful couple.. I support them
[+266, -10] I have a feeling they'll break up pretty fast but it does feel super special/exclusive that it's Karina...
[+103, -0] The second they get exposed to the media, they'll end up like Jisoo and Ahn Bo Hyun
[+99, -3] Feels like routine for idol groups at this point... at around the four year mark, they get into a dating scandal that pushes them out of the top rankings, contracts expire at the six, seven year mark so they go solo, buy up a building in Gangnam somewhere, disappear for a few years, then come back with a mature new image on a variety show or a drama and either keep working or disappear again completely.
[+28, -5] Karina's popularity is no joke right now, though... I wonder if this will hurt her career ㅠㅠ I support her, of course, but Jisoo didn't go public until 10 years with Black Pink..
[+27, -4] Seems like a foolish decision on Karina's part
[+9, -0] Wow, I'm jealous. I wish them a long and happy relationship.
[+12, -4] Just how poorly is SM doing that Karina news is shaking up their stocks ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[+803, -27] SM's dropped 3% but Hybe's dropped 7%... If you're blaming that drop on Aespa's dating scandal, then what happened over at Hybe? Did BTS die or something? Stop with these made up stories...
[+293, -8] Hybe's dropped, too, why blame Aespa on this? Hybe's dropped 7% so what's your story for what? Is New Jeans getting married or something?
[+192, -9] Let's all just worry about ourselves, guys
[+162, -25] I know who Karina is... but who is Lee Jae Wook~?
[+58, -8] Is a 3.47% drop even considered a drop these days?

[+1,864] I'm so thirsty, maybe I should drink some clorox
[+1,293] Lee Jae Wook needs to pay 10x more in taxes now
[+1,207] I didn't want to find out like this...
[+751] Super random combo so I'm a bit taken aback... it feels like hearing about macarons and marinated crabs are on a dish together
[+873] Let's get to know each other together, all of us
[+464] I'm shocked that he's 27, Karina's 25
[+322] I'm not feeling well, you all better not mess with me today
[+100] They look good together 👏👏
