On August 8th, Winter interacted with fans through the fan platform Weverse. While responding to fans' posts, Winter drew attention by directly addressing an extremely malicious comment.
Winter replied to a post filled with malicious remarks like, "Why aren't you dead yet?", along with a cigarette emoji, saying, "Smoking is bad for your health." To another shocking insult, "You look like X,' she responded, "I have a puppy-like face." And when someone commented, "Turn off your data and sleep forever," she clamly replied, "Eat some ice cream. It'll make you feel better."
Regarding the situation, SM Ent. announced that they would collect all the malicious comments and take legal action. Previously in 2023, there were posts threatening Winter's safety and SM Ent. stated, "As soon as we confirmed the posts, we immediately filed a complaint with the police against the author of the post."
