The girl group in question is aespa— whose members are no strangers to criticism related to various aspects of their appearances.

This time, the heat has been directed toward members Ningning and Winter, after a 2021 post by aespa’s X (formerly Twitter) account suddenly resurfaced and went viral. The post simply contained a photo featuring the two members, side by side, posing at a Givenchy show.

The post has now been inundated with remarks about how neither of the idols looks the same anymore, yet again sparking speculations about how many cosmetic procedures both might have gotten done.

However, many fans countered that the difference in their past faces and the current ones was due to better makeup and age.
For a big three group they kinda had the worst makeup artists. This is the most egregious foundation application to colour combo https://t.co/k72bnpbi39
