Overview
- Fans posted video from a recent fansign that shows Park drawing one Polaroid number but announcing a different number, and several reports say the prize was given to a prominent Japanese fansite.
- Park Gun Wook published a written apology saying he caused hurt and confusion, apologizing to fans, fellow ZEROBASEONE members, and staff and promising to reflect and act more carefully.
- The apology has been published widely by niche K‑pop outlets but many fans and commentators have called it vague and insufficient, keeping the controversy active on social media.
- No official statement from ZEROBASEONE’s agency or an independent investigation has been reported, so coverage has focused on the video evidence and fan reaction rather than formal disciplinary steps.
- Polaroid giveaways and fansites are high‑value parts of K‑pop fan culture, so this incident could prompt calls for clearer rules or oversight of shows and prizes and will be judged by whether the agency takes visible corrective action.
