Winter shared several photos on her Instagram, posting them alongside a heart emoji. In the images, she poses in a festive space filled with shimmering silver party decorations and balloons, holding a red heart-shaped balloon close to her face while gazing into the camera.
Her black knit styling, which subtly highlights her shoulder line, paired with her naturally falling bob haircut, creates a calm yet lovely atmosphere that accentuates her signature charm. In another set of photos, Winter sits in front of pink birthday balloons and a silver curtain, playfully winking or hiding behind a heart balloon, conveying both the excitement of a birthday celebration and her playful appeal.
Fans responded enthusiastically, leaving comments such as “You’re so cute, sister,” “We’re always cheering you on,” “So pretty,” “Fighting,” “Happy birthday for real,” and “Let’s be even happier in 2026.”
Meanwhile, Winter, who was born in 2001, has turned 25 this year. Last year, she became the subject of dating rumors involving BTS member Jungkook, with some fans citing alleged couple tattoos and social media usernames as circumstantial evidence. However, neither agency has released an official statement regarding the rumors. Winter’s side has instead announced plans to take legal action against malicious comments.
