[enter-talk] WHY IS THE DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN MEMBERS SO SEVERE WITHIN AESPA?

Those were the item boxes for aespa's Hong Kong fansign

In the following order: Giselle, Ningning, Winter, Karina

Popularity aside, I think that it's completely wrong that their own company has prepared different box sizes per member

If they are receiving a lot of items, isn't it obvious that they will need to change to a bigger box...? How can you label this as "discrimination?

It's not that they originally prepared these box. Karina and Winter received a lot of items at that fansign so they just swapped out their boxes no? If they overfill, of course they'll need to change them

The issue with popular members has been ongoing since previous generations and is naturally difficult to fix;; How can it be resolved? Ning is also my bias but even if they try to be fair and give them the same box, and pick the same amount of fans for Kar-Gel-Win-Ning, fans will just pretend to be fans of another member and doing so will just be way too excessive. In the end, there’s no perfect solution. It's not just for aespa, this is a common issue for all groups. Even aespa has improved in treatment as their career progresses, and fans are now more accepting of this. The aespa fandom is large, and the members’ relationships are good, so any complaints now seem like attempts to stir drama instead of real concernsㅋㅋㅋ

Winter is indeed a popular member but it may also due to the fact that she received big fan items no?? It seems like there's a big blanket on top of her items no? and aespa's member are all super popular

Wasn't it the case that they didn't initially prepare different-sized boxes for each member but instead switched to larger ones because they received a lot of items? Writing posts like this is not actually helping aespa. The difference in fan numbers is something that can't be avoided. Even if a member is less popular within aespa, they likely still have a lot of fans

This is what happens when you give them the same box size..
