• Brands Keep Ignoring Aespa's Giselle, And Fans Are Sick of It

    "Why do we have to go through this again and again?"


    Giselle from aespa has been left out of promotional photos for another brand that the group works with. This time, it was MLB, and MYs are not happy about it.

    In August of last year, MLB used a promotion for the brand's summer collection to name aespa as their official global ambassador.

    In photos promoting MLB's shirts, shoes, bucket hats, and crossbody bags, the four members looked great.

    Even back then, Giselle's photos didn't show up next to her members because of a mistake on the brand's part website.

    Her name was spelled wrong in another part. This made MYs very angry, and they took to social media to tell MLB how they felt. The phrase "Aespa is four" also became popular on Twitter.

    This was not the last time the brand made the mistake of leaving out the group's main rapper from promotional pictures.

    This time, it happened on MLB Korea's official Instagram page, where Karina, Winter, and Ningning each had a post about the brand's jacket without Giselle.

    The hashtags #GiselleDeservesBetter and #RespectGiselle started trending on Twitter because fans wanted MLB to see what they did wrong and fix it.

    MYs even said that Giselle works really hard to promote MLB's clothes when she wears them.

    Sad to say, this isn't just something that MLB has done. CLUBCLIO Japan forgot to put Giselle's picture in their Kill Cover Fixer Cushion ad from May of last year.

    In another case, it was the Korea University Festival's Instagram account that put up separate posts with pictures of all the members except Giselle.

    During the 2020 SBS Gayo Daejeon, journalists from different news outlets blurred Giselle's face because they thought she was a member of aespa's staff.

    Also, they didn't post individual pictures of the idol, unlike the pictures of her bandmates.

    Even aespa's agency, SM Entertainment, has been criticized because it took more than a week for Giselle's Spotify playlist to be made public, while the playlists of the other members were easy to find.

    MYs keep letting all the brands and companies involved know how upset they are, and they plan to keep doing so until the problem of Giselle being left out of the group stops.

  • Lee Min Ho Shares the Hilarious Story Behind His Famous Baeksang Fall—The One Thing He’ll Never Forget!

    Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

    On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

    The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

    Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

    He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

    Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

    Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

    It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
