Does a child's drawing define a superstar's beauty? A series of sketches featuring aespa's Karina and IVE's Jang Wonyoung has ignited a fierce debate online, proving that even a surprise Christmas project can turn into a battlefield for netizens.
The Karina Jang Wonyoung Google Gemini Ad Drawing Controversy
According to reports on Nate Pann, the two idols recently participated in a cinematic advertisement for Google Gemini, appearing as nuns. During the shoot, children on set were asked to draw the stars. The results couldn't have been more different: Karina's portrait was depicted as humorous and 'ugly,' while Wonyoung's was drawn as a pretty, innocent figure with a curvaceous silhouette.
When the images went viral, some netizens used the drawings to roast Karina. However, the idol's fans were quick to point out that she found the whole situation hilarious. Karina even posted the 'ugly' drawing on her personal Instagram, effectively silencing the trolls with her confident 'Alpha Girl' attitude.
Netizens Slam 'Peak Loser Energy' Trolls
The top comments on domestic forums were overwhelmingly supportive of the artists. One user noted that despite being targeted by haters for 6 years since her debut, Karina continues to secure major deals with brands like Prada and Chanel. Fans argue that the constant focus on her, even over a simple drawing, only proves her massive star power.
