During a recent live stream, ZEROBASEONE‘s Park Gunwook was seen eating several strawberries off of a cake. This caused a necessary “controversy” that sparked divided reactions.
딸기 논란은 멤버가 9명인데 딸기 11개 쳐먹은 건욱이가 돼야할거같은데?
지 생일케이크도 아니고 남 생일케이크인데 뭔 저렇게 처먹노 pic.twitter.com/LoyW6nktLY— 장은세 (@zzangeunse) September 18, 2024
The ‘strawberry controversy’ is that Gunwook, who ate 11 strawberries even though there are 9 members, seems to be the one to blame. It’s not even his birthday cake; it’s someone else’s birthday cake, so why did he eat so much?
Many fans defended Gunwook; some even thought it was cute that the young member had such an appetite for fruit. Still, some people hated him for no reason.
애가원래식탐이쳐많은듯
자컨에서도 모든멤버들 앞엔 먹을게없는데
얘혼자 한가득임ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ아개웃긴다
이러다가 건욱이한테 정들듯 https://t.co/UAuQrqx45q pic.twitter.com/e9ul1g5WI9— 덕배 (@mrkittyfuck) September 21, 2024
The kid seems to have a huge appetite. Even in the self-filmed content, there’s no food left in front of the other members, but he’s the only one with a full plate, lol. This is so funny. At this rate, I might end up getting attached to Gunwook.

This is so hilarious. Every time there’s a controversy, it’s always some ridiculously funny one that I’ve never seen before. Embarrassing.

ZEROSEs (ZEROBASEONE fans) are becoming increasingly concerned about the amount of hate Gunwook has faced. Many pointed out that he even ate less than some claimed. Regardless, strawberries are a healthy snack, and no one has the right to fat-shame him for such a thing.

This is how nasty knetz is, is not a big deal, he shouldn’t get this amount of hate just for eating strawberry. He’s still 19yo this is too much. And it’s not even half imagine there’s 9.000k qrt with this kind of tweet i can’t bear to read it all 😢

Fatshaming an idol for eating 11 strawberries, which translates to around 40-60 calories is a level of reality detachment that I fail to grasp. Gunwook you're amazing, this industry sadly isn't. https://t.co/SESTqVIgnv pic.twitter.com/bl9Ckl9Hh3

ZEROSEs are demanding WAKEONE take action and protect its artist, Gunwook, amid the constant attacks. Fans want the company to take legal action, especially since this isn’t a one-off occurrence.
WAKEONE's silence and ignorance towards the hate that Gunwook has been receiving is very disappointing.. We demand you take immediate legal action against the constant hate directed towards Gunwook.

We would like to reiterate: this is not an issue that is just about strawberries.
The hate directed to him is an issue that has been constant since February 2023. It has never changed, it has never stopped.
This is only one example out of countless others.
