Out of all the members, Winter was the one who earned the most praise. This is because, in April, it was announced the idol suffered from a collapsed lung. The idol underwent surgery for it and was back to promoting with aespa a month later. It was noted that despite the possible shortening of her practice time, she still sounded amazing.
