In February of this year, Kim Jiwoong was accused of cursing after a virtual fanmeeting. Later that month, Dispatch concluded by a voice analyst that it was not verifiable that Kim Jiwoong was the person who cursed. WAKEONE also issued a statement.

Hello. This is WAKEONE. Over the past five days, our company had called for a special analysis of the video that has been spreading on various online communities and social media through the law firm Sejong. These are the results. As per the results of analyzing the special traits of the voices in the video, the voices of the people who said “thank you” and the person who cursed have different pitches and heights in terms of their voice waves, and it was determined that they came from different people.
It was also determined that the video was recorded not by the device that did the call, but an external one, so there is a chance that the curse was from an external source. We have verified that this can be used as means to judge that the curse was not made by our artist. We ask for your understanding that this took some time for us to announce, as we were trying to accurately verify the facts through special analysis, despite our trust in the artist and the various testimonies. We are sorry to everyone that was concerned. In the future, we promise not only to protect our artist from harm on the basis of truth truth, but also put in our best to prevent the loving fans from being hurt. We will do our best for a healthy and mature K-Pop culture. Thank you.

Ahead of this statement, ZEROSEs (ZEROBASEONE fans) urged WAKEONE to protect Jiwoong as a union, and netizens pushed for his removal and spread misinformation. Many trended, “I STAND WITH JIWOONG” and “WE LOVE YOU KIM JIWOONG” in support of Jiwoong.

Despite this, WAKEONE has been failing to protect Jiwoong and promote him as an artist. For months, ZEROSEs have been calling on WAKEONE, demanding better treatment for the idol.

ZEROSEs continually pointed out that he has few to no opportunities except for his participation in ZEROBASEONE’s full-group activities and comebacks. They claimed Jiwoong has had no solo schedule, no challenges with other non-group member idols (specifically without another member), no ending fairy throughout their recent comeback, no solo posts on X (formerly Twitter) since March, no solo TikTok videos, few solo posts on Instagram, nearly any appearances in YouTube videos, etc.

Now, finally, after months, Jiwoong attended his first schedule, the Gucci exhibition, in months. Still, it was with fellow hyung line members Sung Hanbin and Zhang Hao.

Nonetheless, ZEROSEs are so happy and excited for Jiwoong to attend an event finally. He looked handsome as ever.

Jiwoong, who has been blonde for the Cinema Paradise comeback, went black for the event. He previously teased ZEROSEs at the fan meeting yesterday that he would spray his hair black.

It appears he kept his promise, and it’s just sprayed on color. He crashed Park Gunwook‘s live broadcast, and eagle-eyed fans believe they spotted some blonde peaking out.

Black, blonde, or any color in between, Jiwoong always looks dashing!
