뉴욕타임스 음악비평가 존 파렐레스(Jon Pareles)가 2023 최우수 노래 (Best Songs of 2023)에 K팝 걸그룹 에스파(aespa)의 'Better Things'를 #13위에 선정했다. 

 

존 파렐레스는 "카우벨, 손뼉소리, 피아노 코드가 "Better Things"를 주도한다. 기발하게 계단식 보컬 하모니를 갖춘 K-팝의 이별곡으로 절대 후회는 없다"라고 평했다.  

 

에스파는 또한 영국 파이낸셜타임스의 ‘2023년 가장 영향력 있는 여성 25(the most influential women of the year)’에 선정됐다. 이 리스트엔 배우 마고 로비, 가수 비욘세, 테니스 선수 코코 코프 등이 올랐다.
