During a personality quiz segment on “Nana Tour with Seventeen,” the cast failed to identify aespa Winter‘s face, despite being active idols themselves. The situation sparked online debate, especially since this wasn’t a drama-focused or actor-centric episode like New Journey to the West. These were idols guessing about other idols, yet they still missed the mark.
This isn’t the first time something like this has happened. In a previous HYBE-focused variety segment, multiple male idols also failed to recognize Winter.
A related post on Pann has been gaining significant attention and sparking discussion. While some questioned her public recognition, many fans were quick to defend her widespread visibility and status as a 4th-gen standout.
Comments on Pann:
- “If she really weren’t famous, she wouldn’t have been a quiz answer in the first place… Among 4th-gen idols, the only ones who have appeared multiple times in Fifteen Nights On Business Trip’s character quizzes are Annyungz and Karina–Winter. Just those four.”
- “So just because two people didn’t get the answer right, she’s not popular? And if you watch ‘Fifteen Nights On Business Trip,’ Baekho doesn’t even know current slang well he lost at the lunchbox game too…”
- “Did you even watch the video until the end? Both of them knew but still got it wrong. And to the people trapped in the delusion that Winter is a nobody: go outside, and you’ll see Winter’s New Balance billboards all over Seoul. Turn on TV or YouTube and you’ll see her Toreta and Mamonde commercials she even has a whitening skincare ad coming out soon. Her face is all over the Olive Young app and store displays. Try living in the real world.”
- “If you stopped people on the street and asked whether they recognize a Seventeen member or Winter, I’m pretty sure Winter would win, hands down.”
- “If she weren’t well-known, the producers wouldn’t have included her in the quiz to begin with lol. Didn’t you see when Dokyeom got it wrong and had to do push-ups? The members totally roasted him for it.”
Regardless of interpretation, the moment has reignited discussion around how even well-known idols can sometimes fall under the radar—depending on the platform, generation gap, or simply the day’s quiz lineup.
