A video of an unknown man caught by a security guard while running toward Winter of Aespa went viral on the internet.
On December 25, a post titled 'A security guard stopping a man running towards aespa's Winter' with a Weibo video of 2023 SBS Gayo Daejeon held at Inspire Arena in Incheon was shared widely.

In the video, Winter was giving a wave to the audience as she walked down the red carpet when a man holding a camera suddenly ran towards the singer. The security guard immediately detained the man to secure Winter's safety.
Internet users applauded the security guard's prompt response in comments such as, "I think he was trying to take a picture from up close, but she would feel threatened if he ran like that," and "If the security guard misses someone like him once, it's over. So you have no choice but to respond quickly."
