Netizens joined in to offer their opinions on Winter's change in appearance:
"She definitely looked refreshing and beautiful when she first debuted... She's still really pretty, of course, but her styling feels a bit bland now..."
"I totally agree that Winter had an amazing unique vibe when aespa first debuted. She really had her own personality... I miss that"
"I also prefer Winter's debut visuals... She's lost too much weight now, she was prettier when she had chubby cheeks"
"She looks like a completely different person now"
"But why does she looks so different now? Is it just because she's 5 years older now? That her cheeks have gotten less chubby?"
"I think it's her eye makeup... Her eyes are already big, yet she wears so much eyeliner to emphasize them even more. I'm absolutely not criticizing Winter. I'm just saying her makeup is a bit disappointing"
"Actually, I think Winter is prettier now, but her early debut days were also so cute and lovely"
"Seriously, Winter had her own unique style when they first debuted. But these days, all the aespa members look the same. Maybe because their makeup is similar"
"She's the only member who makes me miss their debut days... She's been pretty since their debut"
"But everyone's face changes as they age. Even pretty people eventually become grandmothers when they get older. That's why liking someone just because of their face won't last long"
"Winter during 'Savage' - era was the best she's ever looked, I miss that time"
"She's so pretty with less makeup. She looks soft"
"Really, the aespa members' faces are becoming more and more similar..."
"Honestly, I miss her debut look... She had chubby cheeks and reminded me of Taeyeon a lot. She's still pretty now though"
