Lee Yong-jin Reads 2025 Fortune for aespa's Karina Through Tarot Cards
On December 25, Lee Yong-jin read aespa member Karina's fortune for 2025 using tarot cards on his YouTube channel Yong Tarot.
Interpreting the cards Karina drew, Lee predicted, "The projects you're considering will succeed. You'll also have opportunities outside of music—acting might be one of them." Surprised, Karina responded, "I recently had a chance to officially try acting for an advertisement, and I found it very interesting."
Lee continued, "You'll be great at acting. Your talent is immense, and you have a natural ability for broadcasting. Everything you try will go well—even if you film something yourself, it'll be a hit."
This year, Karina made her debut in variety shows, appearing on Netflix's Agents of Mystery and KBS2's Syncro U, both coincidentally featuring Lee Yong-jin. Reflecting on the experience, Karina shared, "It was my first proper try at variety shows, and I loved it. It felt like learning and having fun at the same time." Lee encouraged her future endeavors, joking, "You'll even be able to draw a beard or put toothpaste on your nose for laughs." Karina playfully replied, "I'd love to try bald cap makeup!"
Lee also predicted a second season for Syncro U, adding excitement for more collaborations. When asked about their work compatibility, Lee rated it "99 out of 100," noting their great chemistry and mutual understanding. "I think we'll have many chances to work together in the future," he said.
During the episode, Karina shared her wish to go camping for Christmas and expressed her dream of seeing Oasis in concert and adopting a pet cat. Lee addressed each of her wishes through tarot readings, adding a fun and personal touch.
