aespa’s Giselle and RIIZE’s Wonbin are once again at the center of dating rumors online. Over the past few months, some fans and netizens have been trying to link the two idols based on small, often vague details. These so-called “clues” include the use of the same emoji, similar accessories, and certain social media patterns.
However, most of the claims are weak and based on coincidence. Now, it seems like Giselle may have responded to the rumors in her own way.
On July 9, Giselle posted a meme on Instagram that got people talking. The image showed Casper the Friendly Ghost reading a book, with the caption: “Go study or smth.” The post stood out because it was different from her usual style, which mostly includes personal photos or stage-related images.
Fans noticed that the meme seemed like a message to people spreading the rumors. Since it appeared right as the dating talk picked up again, many believed it was Giselle’s way of saying people should focus on something more useful than gossip. She deleted the post shortly after, which only added to the buzz.
The dating rumors mostly come from fans overanalyzing things. Both Giselle and Wonbin have used the eye-roll emoji in responses to fans, and some thought that was a secret hint. Others pointed out that the two idols wore similar jewelry or outfits and called them “couple items.” But many fans think these are just common trends, not signs of a relationship.
After Giselle’s post, a lot of fans showed their support for her. They said that constant rumors like these can be stressful and tiring for idols. Many saw her post as a quiet way to set boundaries without making a big public statement.
Most fans agree that the dating rumors are likely blown out of proportion or completely made up. Still, the pressure from repeated gossip may have led Giselle to finally respond in her own subtle way.
