As discussions proliferated, some netizens directed harsh criticism toward Giselle:

“Is there even anything left on her face that’s actually hers?”
“She should seriously bow down in gratitude to her fansite masters.”
“Why are her eyes starting to look more and more like [2NE1] Park Bom’s?”
“With only four members, the contrast with the other members’ looks seems to amplify her insecurities, yet fans still label her a ‘cool girl.’”
“Her mid-face is the real concern; changing other features won’t help if she feels overshadowed by the beauty of her peers.”

Despite the original post being deleted, screenshots and discussions remain prevalent, sustaining the controversy among Korean netizens. As of now, SM Entertainment has not publicly addressed these rumors or the ensuing backlash.
