ZEROBASEONE manager under fire for alleged physical assault on fan at airport

A manager of ZEROBASEONE is under fire after reportedly striking and physically assaulting a fan at an airport, sparking widespread outrage among fans and netizens alike.

The incident, which occurred on July 31, has quickly become a hot topic across online communities and social media platforms. A video capturing the moment appears to show the manager approaching a fan and engaging in a physical altercation. The footage has prompted intense backlash, with many calling for legal action.

Adding fuel to the controversy, a previous allegation from last year involving a physical confrontation between a fan and a manager has resurfaced, further damaging the agency’s public image.

Known managers for ZEROBASEONE include Yoon Hong Sik, Jung Jae Seo, and Seok Hyuk Jin. These individuals have supported the group's dormitory life and daily schedules, and notably appeared alongside the members during their feature on the variety show 'Point of Omniscient Interfere,' where the group's off-stage life was first revealed. Online reactions have been swift and fierce. 

Comments from netizens include:

"They should be sued."

"Why would you threaten and hit a fan who’s just standing there?"

"That kind of assault is a crime and should be punished."

"Fans hate that manager even more now."

As of now, ZEROBASEONE’s agency has not issued an official statement regarding the incident. Fans continue to demand accountability and transparency over the handling of the situation.
