ZEROBASEONE's Kim Ji Woong faced a cursing controversy following a video call from the latest fan sign event on February 2. The singer was allegedly heard using profanity after saying goodbye to a fan, prompting the label to initiate a thorough investigation utilizing digital media and forensics.
On February 17, a K-media revealed the results of the voice analysis conducted by the Korea Forensic Science Service (KFSS). While confirming that Kim Ji Woong spoke the "thank you" part (Part A), KFSS stated the lack of visual evidence made it impossible to confirm his involvement in the profanity part (Part B).

They also presented a statement from a staff member present during the video call, affirming that Kim Ji Woong did not utter any curse words. The analysis and staff testimony collectively support Ji Woong's innocence in the cursing controversy.
