Boy group account caught retweeting a tweet with Karina from aespa

Boy group account caught retweeting a tweet with Karina from aespa

It seems that this happened by accident.

It’s easier to make a mistake on a social media account than many people might think, and this is even more true if you have more than one account on a platform like X (formerly Twitter).

In the past, official K-pop accounts have been caught interacting with tweets that contained surprising content, such as when Apink’s account posted fanfiction with NCT members.

Fifth generation boy group Fantasy Boys‘ Account was recently caught liking a surprising tweet aespa‘S Karina.

Fantasy Boys was founded by the survival show of the same name and some of the members have experienced several scandals in the short time they have existed as a group.

On August 19, a netizen noticed that the Fantasy Boys members’ account had retweeted their tweet. The tweet showed a TikTok by Karina from aespa with two dancers performing a challenge to “Pocket Locket” by Alaina Castillo.

The tweet seemed to have a negative tone and was directed at the dancer on the left, mentioning that overdancing was unattractive to fans.

Otaku (fans) from all countries seem to agree that “confident dancers” (people who overemphasize themselves in a group) are unpleasant.

– OP, via Google Translate

While K-pop group accounts are usually managed by people other than the members, this case has been particularly notable because the account is specifically for member content and is presumably managed by the group.

The account has since retracted the tweet.
