JIWOONG vs ZEROBASEONE

[@DeeFightingDreamer]

Jiwoong has that vampire aura for sure lol. He has heard that he looks unaproachable and cold quite a few times. His resting face can be intimidating, so I get it. But then he opens his mouth and you realize this is the goofiest, cutest, softest little bean on the planet. Despite there being a big age difference between Yujin and Jiwoong, they're really close, because Jiwoong's younger brother is the same age as Yujin. Also Yujin said Jiwoong doesn't act his age a lot. He can act quite childish, someone said he's healing his inner child in ZB1. And then there's Jiwoong's agenda of being the fake maknae lol. But Jiwoong is also a very dependable hyung. He doesn't care about tradition, when Gyuvin wanted to feed him (as the eldest) first, Jiwoong told him to take a bite first. He's just so sweet ♥ I really hope you react to more of Jiwoong, because he's got such a 4D personality and there's so many interesting things about him :)

[@Carnibee]

“Healing his inner child” 😭😭😭

He really is healing his inner child, he went through a-lot and he deserves to live his life freely now

[@aliceseteco122]

Jiwoong is ZB1's fake macknae, that's why the members tease him in every single opportunity they get, specially Gyuvin 😂😂😂

[@Thil]

The "we're not gonna get into that" lawsuit is actually VERY heartbreaking but also an eye opener on the industry and shows how dedicated Jiwoong has been to fulfill his dream of being a singer. He was in a predebut group, but at some point the group sued to company for s*xual ab*se by 2 female higher staff members. 6 out of 10 members were victims. It was never said who, but even if Jiwoong was one of the other 4, it must have neen traumatising as all 10 went into psychological treatment after. The entire debut was scrapped. At least that's the very broad strokes of it. But it's good to see that even after what he (or maybe not him but some of his members) went through, that he continued with his dream and eventually debuted. Before this he was already debuted in another group but disbanded due to severe mistreatment from the company. So he went through hell twice, but kept fighting.

[@Qui_xo]

FINALLY HE ACKNOWLEDGED THOSE LEGENDARY KISS SCENES OF JIWOONG😭I'M TEARING UP😭

[@moonlightbae_]

he’s been through so much, his past groups were unfortunately severely mistreated and taken advantage of but it’s really admirable that he never gave up on his dream 💙🌹

[@THISandTHISandTHAT]

What groups were they? What happened?

[@DeeFightingDreamer]

@@THISandTHISandTHAT He first debuted in INX when he was 17, they were active for about a year before they suddenly disappeared and it came out that the members filed a lawsuit. They weren't treated well by the staff, didn't receive vocal and dancing lessons, didn't get security when travelling, had to pay for their makeup and costumes but weren't being paid for their promotional activities and were starved, being told "You won't die if you skip one meal a day.". Then he was in ATEEN, which debuted in Japan but lasted only a few months at best, before it came out that the members filed for a lawsuit again. This time 6/10 members of the group were sexually harrassed during a celebratory dinner while the rest had to watch. It was never specified which members to protect their privacy. The members won the lawsuit only recently, at the end of 2023. Jiwoong was also in a pre-debut group B.I.T, which lost funding and never debuted.

[@THISandTHISandTHAT]

​@dee7380 Thank you for taking the time to fill me in on all of the details. I had no idea any of this happened, and I'd never even heard of those groups. Hope he finds a steady career in acting since ZB1 will be over relatively soon 💔

[@nayonikajk5657]

Jiwoong is so adorable😂❤ And the way all his members are so comfortable despite the age gap is so heart warming, he is a really caring hyung🦋

[@PashaK895]

Love this guy, Ji Woong is simply the sweetest, cutest, kindest person, thanks for this.

[@mormel80]

Jiwoong acted as a vampire in of the dramas! It was kissable lips, my favorite drama he has played the main role in has to be roommates of poongduck

[@nilmaryrivera8578]

Ben said Jiwoong gives him a Bad boy vibe when he started to know him . I'm glad he finally kinda finds out Jiwoong is a unintentionally funny, cute and sweet . Yes Ben u'll find out he's the Oldest Hyung by age but mentally the Maknae of ZB1.

I thought he referring gunwook as the bad boy,

[@toraiilou6609]

@@GelannAbela Yes he refered that to both Jiwoong and Gunwook .

[@jabberjabberjabber]

Jiwoong often takes Yujin under his wing during their airport arrivals and departures. It’s very sweet to see him go into hyung mode.

[@Tanlawless]

Like his younger bro, he also has a older brother, I think I saw a pic or interview of him I think he looks like him?

[@hildahnjiru6226]

"this guy looks like a vampire" Of course he is our vampire

[@yukokarma2927]

Jiwoong has a younger brother younger than the maknae of zb1. So Jiwoong is comfortable taking care of the younger ones. Yujin has shown multiple times that he’s very comfortable around Jiwoong too so much to people’s disbelief, there isn’t any awkwardness because of age gap in this group

[@Tanlawless]

Same age as maknee.. 10 yr gap and older. Hyung , brother I think there was a interview or something and saw his face

[@Ranny_1298]

Jiwoong is so unique.. It's fun watching your reactions..

JIWOONG FACE MAKE HIM LOOK SO CLUMSY WITH HIS CUTE SMILE 😂❤

[@Thevoiceswontstop_]

Hey, Ben! So, if you wanna react to jiwoong's bl dramas specifically, he's done 2. First, kissable lips, where he plays a vampire and the second one is called 'Roommates of Poongduck 304'. Personally, I prefer the second one but I'm excited to see your reaction to either nonetheless. Hope you have fun watching them if you do decide to.

[@Tanlawless]

i want a reactor to see roommates theres not one on here

[@hari-jk4sl]

Jiwoong, our precious fake maknae😄. He's been through so much and he deserves everything he has now. He was the sole reason I watched boys planet and I've been a fan of him since his acting days. I just want that man to be happy. He may be the oldest one in the group but Jiwoong will always be our (fake) maknae😍😘

[@moonlightbae_]

no matter what sexuality you are you find jiwoong attractive ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

No one was straight in Boys Planet the moment Jiwoong walked in, not even the judges. And I am not even exaggerating!

[@P_Elli09]

Jiwoong actually played a vampire in a Bl drama once (Kissable lips)😭 (fun fact: He shares birthday with the guy he did his best bl dramas with (Roommates of Poongduck, Kissable lips).

[@elenacerulli1580]

I would pay to see you react to Kissable Lips. It’s funny that you say Jiwoong looks like a vampire because he plays one both in this series and in The Sweet Blood. He’s so talented and deserves so much love since his journey to this point hasn’t been easy.

[@taedidthat2809]

I LOVEEE Jiwoong lol I got into ZB1 (& boys planet) because of him!! He’s such a vibe and I’m so amazed that he’s a K-pop idol with a background starring in BLs dramas (which is what I know him from) I definitely recommend Kissable Lips it’s so cute and his chemistry with his costar is amazing (on and off the screen) 🔥🔥💜 I’m so proud he’s following his dreams!!

[@sarahstwart1653]

Not to offend you but , why are you amazed he is an idol and was a bl actor,, i seen comments like yours and I always wonder why people think like because their are soo many idols doing bl series now a days , i know its still a new thing for korea tho ,

Just for context about the lawsuit, Jiwoong didn't do anything wrong. He and other members of his old group sued the company for a bunch of bad stuff and they won, and then the group split up to go their separate ways. But Jiwoong wasn't accused of anything wrongful, etc.

[@barbara_018]

You should really react to Jiwoong's BL series and kiss scenes 😂❤️ Also Jiwoong doesn't that big of age gap with the rest of hyung line... It's the last 3-4 members who are quite younger than him!! The others have 2-4 years gap with him...

[@kpop-addit]

Ben heres some Jiwoong information for you! He was a bl actor in mutiple shows! He debuted once before ZB1 in a 5 member group when he was 19! The group disband as they were being mistreated by their company, they filed for a law suit against their company for mistreatment and sexual harassment (the company didnt give them any security and it resulted in sexual harassment). After that he was in two pre-debut groups, the first group disband because 6 out of the 10 members were sexual harassed or assulted by the CEO's wife (or her brother). The second pre-debut group he was in ended on peaceful trems. He then became an actor and still dreamed to become an idol. He joined Boys Planet because he never gave up on his dream! Its sad how much he went through at a young age but he has finally achieved his dream! ❤ P.S The photo you said he looks like a vampire in is actually ture! That was the show 'Kissable Lips' in which he played a vampire in! 😂

[@zerobaseone_JPMiniAlbumPREZENT]

Just to clarify his members of INX took their company to court to get them out of their contract for mistreatment (ex.they were only fed one meal a day) during their rookie year. It's the 2nd predebut team A*TEEN members that got sx harassed by CEOs wife & late last year their court case finally concluded in their favour(thank goodness) for damages. His predebut B.I.T Japanese based team was basically abandoned by the company when COVID started in 2000. He then started his SKorean acting activities but never gave up his Idol dreams!💪♥️
