Recently, in a livestream on Instagram, a fan directly asked Giselle aespa about her current love situation.
Are you currently dating anyone? If so, we wish you two the best," a fan wrote.
Immediately after that, the aespa member directly repeated the question and replied: "Thank you, that's sweet, but I'm not dating.
Giselle's short answer was quickly widely shared on social networks. Many fans believe this is a direct denial of dating rumors between her and Shintaro Yasuda.
Previously, rumors began to spread when some netizens said they found "evidence" on Instagram, suspecting Giselle of having a romantic relationship with musician Shintaro Yasuda.
Shintaro Yasuda is a Grammy-nominated musician, collaborating with many famous artists. He also worked with Giselle and Ningning on a recent duet song by the two aespa members.
The rumor became even more noticed after Ningning was said to have reacted related to this story. Aespa member once left a smiley emoticon under a post discussing Giselle's dating rumors.
According to Koreaboo, so far, SM Entertainment has not made a separate official announcement about the incident. However, Giselle's response in the live broadcast is said to have somewhat eased unnecessary debates surrounding the female idol's private life.
Giselle debuted with aespa in 2020 and is one of the members with outstanding personal colors of the group. Recently, she and aespa have continuously been noticed thanks to music, fashion and international promotion activities.
