Recently, there have been multiple occurrences of alleged mistreatment toward the members at the hands of WAKEONE, their company.

ZEROSEs not only lament that ZEROBASEONE is a temporary project group due to its formation through Boys Planet.

The members recently broke down into tears during their concert. If that was not enough, alleged WAKEONE staff reportedly made fun of the members during this.

The seats next to me were for the staff… but this person who called themselves a manager kept mocking the fans and members who were crying, making exaggerated fake crying sounds. It was really unpleasant and ruined the atmosphere…;;; Since they were doing it right next to me, when I looked over, they pretended like they weren’t doing it. What’s that all about? LOL.

Also, during a recent concert, a sharp object on stage pierced through Ricky‘s hand. He continued the performance but was bleeding after pulling it out. Gyuvin took notice and gave him a tissue for the bleeding.

Reportedly, WAKEONE staff also lost a custom fan gift of in-ear monitors delivered by hand for Ricky. His fans are continuing to find out what happened, knowing it had been delivered.

Ricky especially has a long history of alleged mistreatment by WAKEONE, resulting in the member confessing he’s not happy.

When they filmed CAMP ZEROBASEONE, WAKEONE seemingly forgot about ZEROBASEONE’s two Chinese members, Zhang Hao and Ricky. They were initially denied entry into Jeju because they did not have their passports. Koreans do not need passports to travel within Korea. Again, Ricky could not attend the 2023 Asia Artist Awards (AAA) due to passport and visa issues.

ZEROSEs have noticed multiple instances where staff appeared to have something against Ricky specifically. On October 31, 2023, a manager could be heard yelling at Ricky for beginning his live broadcast without their permission, which outraged many netizens.

Additionally, there has been an apparent erasure of Ricky. ZEROSEs have also noted a lack of screen time.

Recently, ZEROSEs called out WAKEONE for an alleged social media ban on Ricky. They have noticed that he has been inactive on social media for some time and has little to no solo schedule.

Likewise, fans have demanded better treatment for Kim Jiwoong. He also has had little to no solo schedules for the past few months.

Taerae also suffers from an alarming lack of screen time in content.

ZEROSEs are also worried for maknae Yujin. His condition hasn’t been good, but he has to keep working.

Fans are also disturbed by a female staff’s allegedly “creepy” behavior toward him. This is especially concerning that he’s underage.

With a growing list of alleged mistreatment toward the ZEROBASEONE members at the hands of WAKEONE, ZEROSEs are trending “ZEROBASEONE DESERVES BETTER” and #WakeoneTreatZB1Better with thousands of related posts. Fans are demanding better treatment for the group.

In addition, there have been instances of WAKEONE staff allegedly being rude toward ZEROSEs. Read more below.
