Broadcaster Jonathan revealed his friendship with aespa's Karina.

The MBC variety program 'Radio Star,' which aired on the 10th, was specially themed 'Wow! My Way,' featuring Park Jun-hyung, Jonathan, Jung Il-young, and Da-young as guests.

That day, Jang Do-yeon asked Jonathan, "You and Karina have a precarious relationship, right?" Jonathan then mentioned Karina's real name by saying, "Did Jimin tell you?"

Jonathan said, "We are the same age, and when we are with our friends, they ask, 'Is Karina pretty?' So I say, 'Did Jimin tell you?' just to pretend we are close."

He continued, "We did 'Syncro You' together. Before that, I only saw her on YouTube, but she gave me an album and a handwritten letter. I went to her manager and asked, 'We came here to work, is it okay to do this?' It seems like I was crazy," eliciting laughter from the audience.

Jonathan added, "I thought we should just focus on work since we are professionals, but when it ended, I saw she gave one to every cast member. Even on the final day of filming, she wrote a letter to each person individually and gave personalized gifts, despite having flown in from overseas," sharing Karina's heartwarming story.

In response, Yoo Se-yoon said, "It could have been a disguise," while Jang Do-yeon teased Jonathan, "Did you only read the first letter of the letter?"

Jonathan said, "Anyway, we were in frequent contact and decided to stay in touch, so I got her contact information. I had my own rules: never contact her first, never talk about Karina when out with others, and never pretend to be close. I think I might have crossed a line a bit today," making the scene a sea of laughter.
