Aespa, SM Entertainment’s fourth generation representative girl group, has not only captured hearts with their musical releases, but also with their endearing personalities and chemistry.

However, in a community thread, aespa MYs fans discussed why the pairing of Winter and NingNing isn’t being pushed enough by the agency despite high demand.

In a forum, titled “It seems SM doesn’t want to push NingNing and Winter,” netizens wondered why the Winter and NingNing pairing wasn’t used so much by the agency.

“I’m not saying that Winter and NingNing aren’t pushed, but when it comes to mating within aespa, Winter and NingNing aren’t often paired together,” a netizen shared.

“Despite strong fan demand for a MingMingz (couple name) combination, the company does not pair them.”

MY expressed how great it would be to see SM Entertainment push the couple more. They also mentioned several opportunities that can explore Winter and NingNing’s potential as a couple, as well as how these activities could complement their individual charms.

“It would be nice to see some more push,” one fan shared.

“For NingNing, it’s fun and suitable for variety. Winter should have more MC and OST concerts. But aespa is doing really well right now, I’m happy for them,” another added.

“Mingmingz can promote aespa’s cute and innocent concepts,” one fan said, while another MY argued, “NingNing would be pushed if it were Korean. SM is a xenophobic company.”
