As an introvert let me tell you, being introvert never equals being socially awkward, unfriendly, private and shy. Introverts can be the opposite depending on different contexts. What sets us apart from the extroverts is how much energy is drained by doing so. I understand that the purpose of your video is breaking down Winter but the way you put it makes it as if you were doubting the introvert idols for succeeding in the highly public entertainment industry, which is a super common but false way society perceives the intros.

I totally understand where you’re coming from. I think there is definitely some simplification; and introversion is a spectrum at the end of the day. My goal with this sort of framing was to create a contrast with the other members, but it can come off like I’m saying it’s harder for introverts or that they all have crippling social anxiety. And Winter definitely isn’t shy all of the time! So with future deep dives I’ll try to be a little more mindful of that complexity. :) Thank you for your comment!

Why would your energy be drained from interacting with people unless the people are negative or you are afraid of people? Love or positivity energizes and fear or negativity drain.

3 out of 4 aespa members completed in the Idol Deep Dive Series! I love this series :)

Winter is my favourite idol. I have never adored any other idol like i adore her. I guess it's because i see so much similarities with her personality as mine. Always wishing good things for Winter. ❤

Minjeong is my ult.... As in introverted person, who is also somewhat shy and anxious, she resonates with me. Her presence is just very alluring to me. Her being so immensely talented on top of that makes her undeniable to me. I truly adore her ❄️🌠....

i love winteerrrr, she's so talented and passionate

She's such a genuine and sweet human, and you did a great job of showing that; Can't wait for you to do Ning Ning (My Aespa Bias)!

Funniest part is her coming on to bubble a few days ago to announce her mbti changed to "E" now and that shes no longer an "I" lmao

nah she cant be 😭 she’s too I

I hate dreaming about Minjeong, i always have to wake up.

I love winter so much ❤ she was my basic form the beginning when aespa debut the girls with the blonde hair catch my attention I love her vocal and visual

SM really has to work on their recruiters/recruiting strategies. Somehow most SM idols and trainees seem to have thought that their recruters were scammers at first 😅

this series deserves more hype, the amount of research and consideration is always evident in your videos!!

Oh I was so hoping you'd do a video on my bias! I absolutely love your idol deep dives! Winter's vocals are what grabbed my attention, discovering her "I" side made me love her so much. The video clip of the other three being chaotic while she quietly enjoys the park on her own, I could see myself in her so much. As always, fantastic and fun analysis, Ben! ❤👍

Underrated is an understatement. She’s special and we all know it, she needs room

winter is so cute and aespa are tooo cuteee

A winter fan boy here 💙⛄💙

Yess another one of my biases!! I genuinely bias more bigger introverts, as i can relate to them or the fact that i just like their quiet nature, in which i quickly noticed in Winter! (Her skills too of course) I’m very glad you go into so much detail about idols, because its nice knowing a little more about them (:

i love the idol deep dive series waiting for a choi yeonjun deep dive bc his talent and energy is wild

We coming out of Kwangya with this one!!!

Was looking forward to this. She is definitely special

Very nice video! LOVE the luigi's mansion editing LOLOL I appreciate that you covered a more introverted idol. A lot of the idols feel introverted, but don't seem very based off interviews imo. Winter seems pretty chill though. Missed opprotunity though to end the video with "that's pretty COOL❄️" pun

Doesn't mean they are introverts it just means they aren't how you pictured them after hearing introvert. Idols still have to be engaging even if they are introverts bc of fan service. They are probably more into themselves outside of work

As an introvert myself i am gravitated tiwards introverted members. Jessica and Winter were all my spirit person

Her vocal tone and timbre are magical

Thank you for this. I'll be honest, i was waiting for you to make Winter's deep dive, and I'm glad i did. You did amazing. 😊😊😊

Yunjin is honestly everyones roommate, she is everywhere😂

i love winter

I love video essays and I love kpop. When they combine (which is super rare) it becomes a gold mine for me. Keep it up bro, looking forward to more of your content

I love Winter so much it’s crazy.

Winter is very talented in all aspects as a performer, what really stand out about Winter is her powerful, alluring vocal.💯

Winter is my wife

I love watching idol deep dive! Since day 1, Winter has been my bias and I love her so much!! With these videos, I can really learn a lot i havent before from these idols. Just seeing them have a dream to sing, dance, etc, is truly amazing. You always convey that message in the best way possible through these videos so thank you

Wonderful to hear you like the series- and Winter’s encounter with the spooky stop button 😱

winter is so lovely :((

Although i thought i knew winter well it turned out that I quite didn't. Thank you for making this!

Winter has always been my bias next to Karina, but now, she’s officially my roll model. ❤

Even if it's not my bias, I find it comforting to see someone as reserved and shy as me succeeding in such a field.

As a Winter fan who’s followed her since debut I’d like to add a few more things about her. First, it has been clarified last year when they created their weverse account that Winter is also a main vocalist. SM has never specified the girl’s positions and they themselves have said the group was kinda positonless in the past (even though in the early years some media refered to her as a main vocal as well). Also, for the friends fact, I would add Ryujin of ITZY, chaehyun of Kepler, and Seulgi of RedVelvet; all of whom she’s talked in the past of hanging out with. Also she has a childhood friend that she always talks about and hangs out with (that’s who helped film that Okinawa vlog) Although you’re correct to say she is an introvert, it is not as extreme as portrayed. She has been seen freely talking to her seniors at various events. She has actually gotten more extroverted as she gets used to the industry and idol life. Recently she retook the MBTI test and was classified as extroverted. I think her shyness has definitely subsided since debut. I’d actually say she’s been one of the most outspoken member since debut. She has always expressed her opinion to staff and has been in the forefront of bringing up grievances. Just earlier this year she was discussing revamping aespa’s lightstick and taking fans’ ideas. I think that’s because she pays so much attention to detail that she speaks up when she sees a problem or wants to edit something. A fun fact I’d like to add is that she is a big gifter. She has given staff expensive wine, she brought tons of gifts for a dance crew she was filming with, and whenever she’s on set filming, she buys food for everyone. Most recently she bought melon bread for all the staff.

Aespa is not even my favorite group, neither this is my favorite gen. But winter is by far my favorite Idol ever.

Amazing video, production and research. You deserve a lot more recognition and I'm certain you'll blow up on YT soon enough.

Her being born in 1.01.1

i really love your videos !!

We love you bebe Winter

love your videos!

This is a lovely video

The term "introvert", when used in MBTI and similar personality descriptors, is a little misleading. I think a more accurate word is "introspective". As someone here said, being an I doesn't (only) mean being social shy and awkward. It can instead point to a characteristic of being constantly thinking, examining and talking to oneself "inside". We "I"s often overthink and overanalyse. We sometimes appear to be quiet, but we are actually deeply analysing a situation or person, forming a judgment and preparing an appropriate response (for which we also overthink!). Outwardly, we can be friendly, sociable, even loud, but at the same we have an inner mechanism making lots of calculations of the situation. Well, apart from this, Winter is my bias!!! Love her so much.

true. introvert people is not always quiet, we are "normal" or even wild when around the right people

Can you do an idol deep dive on wonyoung and ningning?

u just got a new sub :3

early gang!!

great viddd can't wait for ningning

Thank you

Winter is the best 4th gen idol (actually idol ever to me)

Please Ningning next

i love winter and love this series! when you get the chance i would love one on a gidle member??

That's not introversion, that's social anxiety 💀

Ella es tan tierna, talentosa e inteligente

Watched the behind the scenes of aespa music show so apparently aespa also joins meetings and brainstorming And the Armageddon sticker is her idea Thats why kr then winter said incentives in video

I relate to the bus thingy, but i also don't like to make eye contact with my teachers, I can't even look at them..

The sources are written in the upper right corner. For Day6 she said it in her cake making Wintering Vlog at 5:22, and for Alessia Cara she said it in a written interview done by NME in December of 2021 titled "aespa reflect on their “unreal” 2021". Hope that helps!

Please do a deep dive on NMIXX Lily or Haewon. Or maybe even an Itzy member.

Are you an ot3 aespa stan?

its funny how shes alredy an extrovert (enfj) she said that on her bubble.

Could u please do Liz next 🙏 😊

Remeber when she got criticized for having no stage presence? She's come a long way :)

Real life Lacus Clyne (not the garbage freedom ver.)

1:43 I’ll try lol😭😭

I love your Vids can you do jungkook pls

I can't believe every anti fan called her a zombie on stage during savage era

Indeed! 💫🤍💫🤍💫🤍 Panic must have really set in at SM when she had to have lung surgery! Luckily she's young and otherwise healthy. I've been singing my whole life, and she's just awesome! No other way to say it.
