1. Is Taiyo Uchinaga the father of aespa's Gisele? What started the rumor?

The rumor that Gisele's father is Taiyo Uchinaga, an executive at Accenture, started with a photo she posted on social media.

 

A rare painting in the background matched one in Uchinaga's home, leading to speculation that the two were father and son.

 

Furthermore, there was an episode in which Uchinaga told people around him that his daughter was working hard at dancing, which further fueled speculation.

However, Uchinaga was born in 1980, and Gisele in 2000. It is unlikely that he became a father at the age of 20, and it is thought that he is more likely to be a stepfather rather than a biological father.
