Recently, the aespa fan community was stirred up by the image of member Giselle at the airport. The Japanese female idol appeared simply with a youthful, dynamic outfit. However, attention was focused on the wound on Giselle's face. Even though she tried to cover it up and wear a baseball cap, the wound near her eye was still easily visible.

 

Images of Giselle's injury quickly spread throughout the fandom. Fans pointed out that the bruise on Giselle's face had existed for 3 months. In April this year, Giselle was absent from a public schedule due to a cold. At that time, many Chinese fans discovered that she had fallen on the stairs of the subway. This was probably the reason why Giselle was injured.

However, until now, the management company SM has not responded to Giselle's health status. Normally, when an idol is injured, fans will worry. Therefore, the company will have a specific announcement and reassure the fandom.

aespa just made a comeback with their debut album Armageddon. The group regained their top position of the generation with outstanding success with Supernova. Accordingly, their schedule is also getting busier day by day. Right after the promotion ended, aespa started the world tour SYNK: Parallel Line. Running high-intensity shows, the girls could not avoid losing strength, affecting their health. In particular, Giselle once revealed traces of IV on her hand, making fans extremely worried.

Seeing the severe bruises on Giselle's face, the audience couldn't help but feel angry at the superficiality of the management company SM. From here, a series of evidences of SM's discrimination against Giselle were also dug up. SM repeatedly "stuck" with less outstanding outfits, cut down the duration, and let Giselle "play the background" for aespa to the point of being called "the most neglected member of the group".

The health issue was the last straw that increased the anger among Giselle's fans. Currently on Twitter, fans are actively pushing the trend, asking SM to speak up and take better care of the artist.
