aespa's Giselle raised her voice against rumors that are circulating online.
On July 9, Giselle uploaded a post on Instagram with a photo of the animated ghost character Casper and wrote, "Go study or smth (something)."
Giselle's deleted Instagram post gains attention
The idol's latest social media post sparked a discussion online, where fans speculated it was Giselle's response to the latest dating rumors with RIIZE member Wonbin. One fan explained in a popular online community, "She posted this last night and deleted it in the morning. I think the reason she deleted it is that she posted it just to deliver her message."
The fan further chimed in their input to Giselle's latest social media post and explained, "Last year, even when there were wild rumors about her dating a certain male idol (not Wonbin), even being mentioned on Sojang, and fans freaking out over her alleged private account and dating, she never made any kind of targeted post like this."
This fan explained that Giselle usually posts promotional content for the group and pointed out how unusual her latest post was. The fan said, "For reference, her usual posts have short, business-like messages. And apparently, this is the first time she’s ever posted a message like this with just a meme without a photo of herself. If you check her feed, it's all photos of herself."
The fan added, "There were no issues in the comments either, but this is the first time she deleted a post."
Wonbin also speaks out against the latest rumors
The fan also explained that RIIZE's Wonbin also spoke out to fans about the latest dating rumors, shutting them down as being absurd. According to the online community post regarding this, the fan explained, "And, Wonbin also said, 'There's nothing to worry about, so don't worry.' Wonbin also said this at the end of his live broadcast, possibly after seeing the spam and trolling."
The fan continued to express agitation on Giselle's behalf and wrote, "At this point, she wants people to know what's up. Yet every day, people keep linking things like a single emoji or an outfit that happened to match once. They keep obsessing over some supposed 'Instagram clues' even though there's no account that's been linked ot Wonbin. At this point, I honestly think people are just ill. Yeah."
Netizens react
Other netizens also found the latest rumor ridiculous and expressed concern for Giselle. On the other hand, many praised Giselle for immediately speaking out and clearing the air for fans. They commented:
"They must be baffled because some people already decided it's the 'truth' and doing this."
"I'm an aespa fan, and this is really the first time something like this has happened, even though she’s dealt with stuff before."
"Imagine how absurd this must feel for the people involved, LOL. Honestly, we don’t know anything. They could just be close friends or not even connected at all. But the way they addressed it publicly really felt like it came from deep frustration."
"It was fabricated from the start. There was never even anything to connect them with. Their vibes are totally different, so fans never believed it anyway. Giselle is super into hip-hop, while Wonbin doesn’t even listen to that kind of music. Just completely different vibes."
"She's so cool. I want to be like that too."
"That message was clearly aimed at trolls with nothing better to do."
"So damn cool."
"For real. I thought she was calling someone out directly, so I came to see what happened, but it’s just a bunch of people with nothing better to do."
"What’s with the people still posting Chrome Hearts pics here? Every idol wears Chrome Hearts, and there’s only one item that overlaps with Wonbin. What are they trying to prove? LOL."
"Outside of that one female forum that’s a cesspool full of delusional rumor-pushers who keep getting sued by celebs, no one takes these rumors seriously anymore. They're not even fun, so they don’t trend, and now these nutcases are scrambling desperately to keep them alive. It’s both pathetic and sad."
"RIIZE fans didn’t believe any of it, so don’t worry. It’s only those crazy forum people, who aren’t even real fans but just mentally unwell individuals."
