Karina disclosed her close bond with ITZY members Yeji and Ryujin. According to the aespa leader, the friendship blossomed during a peculiar encounter in the waiting rooms, as their rooms were conveniently situated next to each other.
"We used waiting rooms right next to each other, but I am extremely introverted. I would be conscious of them and was unable to talk to them first."
She revealed that despite her desire to forge a connection, her introverted nature hindered her from taking the first step.
However, the ITZY members showed initiative by breaking the ice.
"During this time, the ITZY members got the courage to approach me first by buying us watermelon juice and told us 'we want to become friends with you'. That's how we became friends."
It seems that the sweet gesture over a refreshing drink served as the catalyst for a friendship that has since flourished.
