Karina of the popular K-pop group aespa turned heads with her extraordinary visuals, drawing buzz for her "AI-like" beauty reminiscent of the new digital era.

On the afternoon of August 27, Karina attended a beauty brand event held in Seongsu-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. The singer made a striking entrance in an asymmetrical off-shoulder mini dress—one shoulder covered, the other exposed, creating an unbalanced yet sophisticated silhouette. The all-white look, with its ultra-mini length and feminine allure, accentuated her poised yet playful presence.

From the moment she arrived, all eyes were on Karina as she captivated attendees with her standout visual appeal and unique charm. With her dazzling, almost fantastical features, Karina's beauty has been compared to that of artificial intelligence, prompting many onlookers to call her look "beyond reality" and "the face of a new era."

Meanwhile, Karina's group aespa is set to release their highly anticipated sixth mini-album, "Rich Man," on September 5. The album includes six tracks spanning a variety of genres—from hip-hop and dreamy R&B to sentimental mid-tempo tunes and pop—highlighting the group's versatility and signature sound.

The title track, "Rich Man," is an energetic dance number characterized by its gritty electric guitar riffs and addictive topline. The song's diverse band sounds blend seamlessly with the members' distinctive vocals, delivering a bold and dynamic energy that fans have come to expect from aespa.

Leading up to their album release, aespa will hold their third solo concert, "2025 aespa LIVE TOUR -SYNK : aeXIS LINE," from August 29 to 31 at the KSPO DOME in Seoul Olympic Park, promising fans an immersive live experience.
