aespa was the only K-pop artist to make the Financial Times’ list of the “25 Most Influential Women of 2023”!
On November 30, the Financial Times published its annual list of the most influential women of the year. The list, which includes “exceptional women” from a variety of fields, was compiled “in consultation with hundreds of Financial Times journalists across dozens of bureaux, our readers, and industry leaders.”
In addition to aespa, other women on this year’s list include Margot Robbie, Beyoncé, and Ursula von der Leyen, along with Nobel Prize winners Narges Mohammadi and Katalin Karikó.
Yoojin Choi wrote, “In the two years since they first released their first album, aespa have set and then broken a series of records for K-pop girl groups, becoming the first to pass one million first-week sales with three consecutive albums, as well as playing Coachella and launching a world tour. With their experimentally layered instrumentation and fiery vocals accompanied by their sci-fi punk AI avatar counterparts (the ‘ae’ in aespa refers to ‘avatar’ and ‘experience’), aespa have pushed the boundaries of K-pop.”
Congratulations to aespa!
