Karina's agency, SM Entertainment, said in an official press release on the 28th that "We apologize for causing concern with our artist Karina's post.'
They deleted the post immediately after recognizing that "Karina had no other purpose or intention at all, just posting everyday content on social media, and that it was misleading." I am truly sorry for the inconvenience I caused you"I apologized.
We will also pay more attention and work hard to prevent such a thing from happening in the future. We hope that the artist's will will no longer be distorted and consumed with specific intentions, and we will do our best to protect all artists, including Karina," he added.
Karina herself also expressed her apology. Karina said on the day, "I'm so sorry to make you worry about my (fandom name) through the fan communication app Bubble. I didn't mean it at all, but I thought I should tell him because I was worried about him"I'll be more interested and careful in the future. Once again, I'm sorry to have worried you," he apologized.
Earlier on the 27th, Karina posted a selfie taken in Japan on her personal account. In the picture, Karina wore a white dress and a black jumper. The black jumper has a red pattern and the number 2 is written large in red. He even left a 'Rose' emoji.
Netizens speculate that the 'Rose' emoticon means the June 3 presidential election, and the red '2' means the symbol No. 2. Suspicions grew because the post was also posted shortly after the end of the third candidate debate for the 21st presidential election. Since then, Karina's jumpers have been sold out in online shopping malls.
