Previously, people speculated that aespa would be CLIO's latest brand ambassadors after the brand shared a video teaser to their social media accounts with the words "coming soon." In the released video, four silhouettes can be soon with the CLIO logo next to them. Though the video was short, it achieved a mysterious atmosphere, which led many to wonder who the girls were.
Rumors that aespa was the brand's latest ambassadors arose when many noticed CLIO used emoticons (also known as emojis) that represent the official symbols of the aespa members. CLIO used the heart emoji, moon emoji, star emoji, and butterfly emoji. These shapes represent Karina, Giselle, Winter, and Ningning, respectively.

Previously, CLIO worked with JYP Entertainment group Stray Kids and actress Go Min Si as their models. However, while Stray Kids was promoting as CLIO's ambassadors, member Hyunjin was embroiled in school violence allegations. As a result, CLIO soon stopped promoting Hyunjin as their model and continued to use images of the other seven members.
On the other hand, Go Min Si was embroiled in rumors of drinking underage when photos of her as a student at a bar were shared on online community forums. Go Min Si released a lengthy statement on her social media accounts apologizing for drinking as a minor in response to this.
