Netizens have recently become angered as aespa's Winter has been accused of using the 'Ilbe speech.'
A post created in an online community discussed how Winter used the form of speech called 'Noche,' which is one of the speeches used in the notorious Ilbe Storehouse website (a Korean site that is often compared to a far-right 4chan). The post included captures of Winter's conversations with her fans.
In the conversation with her fans, Winter was seen using a dialect and asking questions to her fans, to which her fans also responded in a dialect.
Winter was then accused of using the 'Noche' speech in this conversation. This accusation quickly spread across the web and various social media platforms. In response, many netizens have become angered and refuted the post stating that Winter was speaking in her native dialect.
In fact, Winter is originally from Yangsan, Gyeongsang-do, where they speak a form of Korean dialect. Winter appeared on JTBC's 'Knowing Bros,' showed off her dialect, and received much attention.
Netizens argued, "She's using the Gyeongsang dialect because she's from that region," "There's no problem with this, why are they like this?" "It's just a complete dialect," "It's really hard that I can't use the Gyeongsang dialect just because of Ilbe," and"I guess Winter is this popular."

So.... She is using her native dialect, which is similar to a dialect used on a bad forum. But we assume she is using the dialect from the bad forum and not the one that is her natural dialect????
Man, let people live. It's her native f*ing dialect. She doesn't have to always use the Seoul dialect.
