On February 27, Dispatch released an exclusive report disclosing aespa Karina and Lee Jae Wook's dating news. This was subsequently followed by the official statements of SM Entertainment and C-JeS Studio, which confirmed the stars' romantic relationship.
The revelation immediately had the K-pop community gasping, especially MYs, the fandom of aespa. Throughout social media, the reactions to Karina and Lee Jae Wook's relationship varied since fans were sent into a meltdown.
However, a huge portion of the community decided to express and (hopefully) cope with the situation by sending out downright unserious content on social media platform X (Twitter).
Here are some of the best funny tweets from MYs in response to Karina's relationship!
1. It doesn't hurt at all... Really!
