Winter’s gestures towards Ningning are heartwarming, especially since Ningning had, in a previous interview, revealed that she is almost blind in her right eye.

My eyes were so bad that I had gotten surgery before. That’s why I am almost blind in my right eye.

— Ningning

It seems Winter was concerned for Ningning since the music festival is known for its water fights between performers and the audience, and it is common for performers to have water sprayed in their eyes.

Netizens praised Winter for her kind gestures and celebrated the close friendship between the members.

• “Why do I love Winter asking Ningning if she’s alright so much?”
• “If you watch them closely, the only member Winter outright takes care of is Ningning.”
• “And during their performance, Ningning dropped her goggles, and Winter picked it up and held it for her until their performance ended.”
• “Winter asks, ‘Are you okay? Is your eye okay?’ ㅠ.”
• “Is there something wrong with Ningning’s eye? I’m asking because I do know. If her eye isn’t good, she shouldn’t perform at WATERBOMB.”
• “Winter doesn’t make it obvious, but she has a unique way of showing affection… ㅜㅜ. She would read fan letters in the lounge… Her affection isn’t showy or loud, but deep, so once you like her, you like her deeply.”
• “I like the fact that all four aespa members seem very close to one another.”
• “She seems like she’s asking, ‘Are you alright? Is your eye okay?’ Her concerned expression is so sweet.”
