aespa’s Ningning Receives Backlash Over Alleged Disrespect Towards BLACKPINK’s Jennie
Ningning is facing serious backlash after BLACKPINK Jennie’s Melon Music Awards performance.
The controversy started when many idols didn’t visibly react to Jennie’s solo stages like “Seoul City,” “Zen,” and “Like Jennie.” Fans noticed several stars staying still, unlike their animated reactions to G-Dragon and EXO’s sets. Korean netizens called this “disrespectful.”
Several aespa members took the brunt of the hate, especially Giselle. Her posture during Jennie’s performance sparked harsh criticism on X.

Now, Ningning is getting flooded with hateful comments on Instagram. Netizens accuse her of being “jealous” of Jennie. Others attacked her visuals and claimed she’s trying to copy the BLACKPINK star.
Fans have started mobilizing to counter the hate by leaving positive comments on Ningning’s posts.
“Due to the sheer amount of negative comments under Ningning’s posts on her personal account, fans are organising themselves to leave positive comments en masse.”
Many defend Ningning’s cold-affected reaction. She was treated at the hospital just hours before the Melon Music Awards. Because of her illness, she missed the red carpet and much of the awards show, attending with only three aespa members for most of the ceremony.
The situation is still developing as netizens continue to debate the idols’ reactions to Jennie’s performance.
