[@grec.]

I mean, it's not his fault he was born rich. Good for him. For one, I don't care for idols to come from rich or not. Their talent is what impress me. They can be beautiful and stunning and that's part of their job as an idol. But talent will always shine through. i don't follow ZBO at all, I don't know him. But too much visuals really bore me, tbh. Nothing against this young man tho. He was born rich and is now a public figure. Good for him, ig. EDIT: it's ZB1. Thx for clarification.

[@_n_a-ez5pc]

He is talented. You don’t follow ZB1 but listen to his clips of him singing and you’ll see why. He also paint, can shoot well, is good and archery, 🏹 good at sports and very kind to both band members, staff and fans.

[@grec.]

@_n_a-ez5pc I may be checking in on him, idk. Tbh, I've seen him get a lot of attention for his visuals tho. The camera loves him.

[@_n_a-ez5pc]

@@grec.his company doesn’t. Look at the official page, barely find him in a single post. Yet he still is part of the group. He is silently discriminated against but still does his best as a member of ZB1. That takes determination and character in the face of wrongdoing, more than enough to praise.

[@grec.]

@@_n_a-ez5pc ah that's tragic. Ig companies really don't care for workplace mistreatment when they don't consider them workers. I'm glad he stands up for himself and stays humble amidst the company being petty and ignoring him to make others shine. I hope one day companies stop this favoritism with their groups because it makes other idols really feel extra pressured.

what i admire about RICKY is that he could have easily just lived in wealth but he’s such a passionate person that he moved to another country alone as a teenager to chase his dreams. he only debuted by proving his talents and earning the love of millions. his personality is extremely sweet and kind, he easily shares his luxury items with his friends and apparently his jacket was worn by many trainers on boys planet. he’s a wonderful singer and dancer who always strives to improve himself i will always support him

[@KelB-g9s]

very nice comment! hating a person because he was born in a rich family is very pathetic and shameful! I like all the members of zerobaseone! but I like Ricky because he sings and dances very well! I found out that he was born in a rich family only 5 days ago and I have been following zerobaseone for 3 to 4 months! I have always found Ricky very stylish but I have never noticed that Ricky zerobaseone was born in a rich family! and yet I can easily detect wealth! but I have never noticed anything with Ricky! he could have simply taken over his mother's business! (his mother owns a prestigious clothing brand in China that is very successful) but he chose to tire himself out! sweat and he even injured himself several times without complaining and whining! how many people born in a rich family out of 100 would be ready to train hard every day to tire themselves out! sweat and get hurt to be a kpop idol ! not me ! ah ah !

Yes, the super rich people live a life that the 99% of people can only dream about. They often have very high CO2 emissions and wealth isn’t properly distributed. There are people that live under the minimum wage and can barely afford to live while there are other people who just live a hedonistic lifestyle or never have to worry about earning an income or living in general. I think it’s morally incorrect to have way (and I mean WAY) more money than you need. I only admire Ricky for his undeniable charm on stage and try to see him as an idol, an idol only

One thing about Ricky is he may have marketed himself in bp as "young and rich" but what made fans love him more is how lovely he is as a person (that even the staff named him LOVELICKY). He's soft-spoken, funny, sweet, and hardworking. Those who don't or refuse to see that are losing sm on knowing the adorable side of Ricky. Anyways, we love you, shen maomao!!

[@yummicho]

Ricky is nicknamed Lovelicky for a good reason. He could live a rich lifestyle but in order to fulfill his dream, he left his family, gave up the ultra comfortable lifestyle to endure hardcore training in a foreign land and learn new language. He worked hard to debut despite the evil edit from BP. He’s truly live up to his tattoo to become people’s Role Model. Love his strong mindset and wana be perfect for whatever he do

[@marcoryskyfall6382]

During his trainee days he wore expensive clothes, shoes and watches. He must have struggled so much when he was able to afford these fake necessities other trainees could only dream of. He still lived a luxurious life during his trainee days, yet you act like he struggled harder than the others in his company. The evil editing incident has become very annoying, it's not funny anymore. The teams he was in had some conflicts because of the members themselves, they were not Mnet's creation. Every time something controversial happens in these survival shows everyone screams "evil editing", as if people can't have problems and disagreements with each other during practice, it's unoriginal. These people need to grow up.

I really really love Ricky sm. He has such a great personality and despite growing up in a wealthy family he's always working hard to achieve the smallest things❤ I really admire his hardwork and his passion for things he likes❤

[@Lc-04.]

I hope ricky never reads the comments of this video it will break him😢, and we usually wonder how this artists end up losing their beautiful smiles .Bro is growing everyday ,he is better than he was before .i really don't care whether he is rich or not ,he just wanted to chase his dream and was happy to do that please ppl with yall opinions about him paying his way through keep it to yourselves and be human imagine if it was your situation, maybe some rich people ARE BAD AND CORRUPT BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE POOR OR AVERAGE PEOPLE GOOD NOR ANGELS .how do you think k pop idols keep taking their lives its through this small comments that hurt and torment them .try and be a good human

Even though he is rich he is also talented and those who say otherwise are just jealous because he has everything, talent, money, success. He debuted because he attracted attention with his charisma and hard work, he trained for years, he was not promoted during the show and is not promoted even now that he is in the group, but he is still one of the most popular members. He is very charismatic, he does many sports, he has great vocals especially the lower range, he can rap, he has a great dance line, clear and smooth movements. Solo fans should stop trying because it will not change the fact that he is actually more talented than they are trying to prove. Especially when you know nothing about vocals and dance

[@calvinlee6996]

Tbh his parents are rich and he admits that, and good thing even if his parents are rich he wasn't too ignorant and boastful about it. he is the same cutie catto zerose love even on his bp days.

[@whip-whip-whiplash]

this was really obvious. Watching the variety shows and lives of the group you notice he is very quiet but with a chick look like he doesn't want to be there, usually when others talk he looks uninterested. But when he talks about himself like his hobbies or his background sounds overly proud of himself. You can detect in the way he talks about himself, his gestures and the way he talks about the other members that he has a big ego for himself. He tries to hide his arrogance sometimes but it's a waste of effort when they raised you with all these comforts.

[@Wabi09776]

Yes he is rich. But honestly (as a zerose, zb1 stan) I don’t really notice that part of him that much. Since he doesn’t make it a big deal. He is extremely talented and that gets looked over because of this and his visuals. He is just fantastic in every way. I hope he’ll get the recognition he deserves❤

[@_harley_1288]

Exactly! Real Zerose don’t care about how rich he is and though I can’t speak for everyone I don’t even care too much about visuals myself. We care about him as a person. I wish people would treat him with respect because he’s deserves it.

Why people hating just because hes rich? Being rich is not a crime and if he loves himself and is self aware so what? He is talented, pretty, has good manners and a cute soul. He is a 20 year old boy that went to korea at a very young age (15-17) to train just to debut because he's passionate about being an idol, since he was a kid he wanted to be a star and now he has to endure being under an unprofessional and sinophobic company (WakeOne) and people hate on him just for being rich and attractive

[@neonbaseone]

To some people in the comments, please check ZB1's songs and covers to hear how talented he is and do not bluntly think that he debuted bc of money. In fact, his company does everything to hide him.

[@Lil_poppy225]

Our young and rich tall and handsome ricky

[@marcoryskyfall6382]

These comments here are so cringe. They say he debuted because he was "talented". Really? You think he is more talented than Hui, Jay, Seungeon, Keita, Junhyeon and other trainees who got eliminated? Are your standards really that low? This is very hypocritical because if it wasn't for his appearance you wouldn't be his fans in the first place. No matter how hard you try to hide that, if you cared about talent you would have voted for another participant. Then they say that he is humble, down to earth, polite etc. Do you believe that too? If your parents had enough money to buy 10 big companies at once and bought you anything you wanted in an instant, would you be humble too? I definitely wouldn't. K-Pop staffs have spoken many times about how arrogant some K-Pop idols are behind the scenes, especially the ones who already came from privileged families. Who convinced you that he is different in real life? Anyone can say whatever they want on the internet, the point is if they have proof that they met him. Lastly, this person obviously doesn't care about you. No matter how many positive comments you write about him, he will never look at the same direction as you. He won't date you, more likely if you don't come from a rich family as him. You don't understand in what a different world these people were raised, they have a different attitude of life and society. You have so many differences, routines, believes etc., you can't even imagine. Be more mature and stop treating random men you don't know like angels, especially the ones who don't need extra money from you.

[@KelB-g9s]

seriously it's pathetic! i've been following zerobaseone for a very short time! now i know enough information about zerobaseone! so you hate him because he's rich??? ah ah ah!!! so pathetic and shameful! there are a lot of people on this planet who are richer than me at the moment and yet i've never criticized or judged a person! i find it pathetic to judge and hate a person because he was born rich so i don't do it! and i've never paid attention to the wealth of others! if you were a rich person all you would have done is stay behind a desk writing on a computer! and enjoy your fortune without worrying about the poor! Ricky however decided to become an idol because he has courage he gets tired a lot every day for training! he has injured himself several times! he is not afraid to sweat or get hurt! which many people born in a rich family never do! and yes he has his place in zerobaseone because he has a lot of talent! his parents' fortune allowed Ricky to register in boys planet but it is his talents that allowed him to be selected !

[@user-wf7qs8wu9u]

And he’s still very talented, he’s in top 5-6 in vocal, top 6 in dance, top 4 in SP, top5 in rap, but you’re acting like he’s not talented. And for being artist except for talented(and he’s talented) you should have charisma, even if you’re the best singer on the world

[@KelB-g9s]

[@Imari0704]

The only cringe comments here it’s someone like you. I haven't watched this show only snippets and I can say he tried as hard as the others considering he had less screen time. I've been following this group for a few months and I can say that he is very talented. He has one of the most beautiful vocal tones, he's very charismatic, funny, kind, he's a great dancer, his moves are crisp and clean, he's good rapper from what I've heard and seen. He is not suitable for cute concepts, so what, but he fits perfectly into dark and sexy concepts. He was born rich, so what? We don't even know if any of this is true because we've never heard about his wealth from him, just rumors. And this idols still debuted

[@Rrina25]

What do you know about his family's money? How do you know how rich they are? Yes, he has expensive watches, but he only wears them, the same jewelry, clothes he's worn since pre-debut, He appreciates what he has. And yes he is talented, because besides singing he is also a dancer and a good rapper and he is a good singer who could be the main/lead vocalist in many 4-5 generation group with his range(low W-A), there are idols who are much less talented than him, but you hate him just because he debuted and someone else didn't? We don't know anything about him and neither do you, but why should we keep quiet and you will continue to hate him for nothing? Sorry, but no🖕

[@DebarshiKoley]

So what if he's rich?! He doesn't show off and his always down to earth to everyone, that's why we call him lovelicky!

[@user-wf7qs8wu9u]

He is the sweetest and kindest person and these are not my words but the words of members, he is very talented, can sing, dance, rap, great charisma, great drawing, did basketball and tennis, funny, smart. His money has nothing to do with how hard he worked to make his debut, he went to Korea at a very young age, he lived alone, he is hated by his own company, his parents live on the other side of the world, but he continues to pursue his dream despite being hated, not promoted and underestimated by many. I'm proud of him because even with so much money he still wears things he wore years ago, he wears the same pants all the time just because he likes them and he never brags about his wealth and YRTH it’s just phrase for Pr video. We never even saw he’s pre debut pics posted by him it’s only what people says

Can't even imaging why some hating his wealth.. If he is really rich or he was born in rich family it's his fortune. If you have money will you go for a poor lifestyle or something. He never show off his money intentionaly. The content in this video most of them are the things that others find out about him or his lifestyle. If someone asked or interviewed about you and will you say you're poor even if you really rich or something. It's not show off.it's facts.

[@guneatearz]

I don't know why there's so many people talking bad about Ricky ONLY because he has more money than an average person, and assuming things about him only based on this fact, that is RIDICULOUS! Some of you guys should learn the meaning of the word "humble". Just because he has money doesn't mean he's automatically a bad person, he's humble because he has never BRAGGED about having money. And for the people saying that he only acts like this on camera, trust me, when an idol has a bad attitude off camera, the rumours spread easily. The people around Ricky have only talked good things about him for a reason, even when he was a trainee! So stop hating on him for no reason, because he has had enough with all this hate without good arguments 😩
