Q. What are the members' secrets?
🐼 Matthew works hard exercising for the fan concert costume.
🦊 Gunwook kissed my ear yesterday. But I didn't hate it.
🐹 Embarrassing~.
When Matthew flipped through the photos, he held the other members' in the front and only his in the back. How kind of him to be so considerate in such a small thing that no one would notice.
🐼 Matthew's way of laughing is "Ahaha!" and it's so cute! But cute is cute, but funny.
👤 What's funny about it?
🐼 The others, "Ha! Ha! Ha! (exhale)", but Matthew, "Ha! Ha! Ha! (Inhale)".
With over 200,000 followers, probably the most famous kpop lover youtuber in Japan was asked by a viewer, "Who do you like best in ZB1?" and he answered Matthew.
[translation]
I don't have a bias because all the members are good, but I think Matthew is the one +
👤 What is Gunwook like for Matthew?
🦊 I think, huh? Uh...I think of him as a baby!
👤 Too cute?
🦊 Gunwook is very, very cute.
Matthew spoke in Japanese even though op had not asked him to, and he also called her name.
What is your little happiness?
🐈⬛ Joking around with the members
🐼 Eating good food
🐹 Wearing perfume
🦊 Looking at memorable photos
🐤 Playing games after work
🐈 (Sorry, I couldn't read)
🐶🦌 Playing bowling
🐻❄️ Watching cartoons on my phone while eating food
I bought it online but went to the store because I wanted it in hand as soon as possible, and as a result, the one with Matthew on the cover was sold out early and I didn't get it.

Some people mention who the most popular members are, but I think how much one person loves you is more important than how many people love you. All nine of them have many fans who truly care about them to begin with, so why the need to compare them?
🦊 (Op's name)~! I remember you!
👤 Really!?
🦊 Yes, I remember!
👤 Oh, really!? This is the second time I've come!
🦊 That's right!
👤 That time you wore Totoro's hat for me.

[Jongwoo mentioned Matthew]
👤 How did you and Matthew come to do the like I do challenge?
🐺 It was because I met Matthew once and we had dinner together, and he said to me, "Hyung! What are you doing tomorrow?" +
👤 Are you in contact with any members of ZB1? What do you talk about together?
🦝 Matthew...I miss him very much.
I'd love to meet him the most.
According to Keita, Matthew also wanted to meet him.
👤 Who is my favorite person?
🦊 Ahhhhh, Matthew...?
👤 Ahhhhh🤣🤣(He looks so cute and unsure)

Matthew listens to his fans' love with straight eyes.
Op jokingly told him, "You're not lonely because jiwoong is here!" and he looked at jiwoong and smiled.
🦊 (Op's name)?
(I'm laughing because he called me out of nowhere)
👤 I like you the best!
🦊 I'm number one!?
(He shakes my hand and I'm so upset I'm acting suspicious)
👤 I put an ad on your birthday!
(I'm not sure if he got the message. I'm trying my best to tell him) +
Matthew came up with a pose for the photo, but he seemed to have forgotten it, so op struck the pose herself and he did it.
He called op's name a lot when he was thinking of the pose and she was very moved.
When I told Matthew at the signing event that I came from Japan, he asked me if I came by plane. I didn't know what 비행기 (plane) meant, and when I told him I didn't know the word😢, he said "hewn(whoosh )"😂.
Someone saw Matthew standing behind the performers on the singing show yesterday and asked on TikTok, "What's his name?" That post had about 5,000 likes and the poster seems to be getting more and more attracted to him. Matthew attracted one person in just 5 seconds or so.
💗 Matthew, I really love you~😭💘
🦊 Me too~🥺
💗 I love you more!
🦊 Oh~ ! (op's name) chan is so cute! (Japanese)
💗 No, no! Not at all!
Matthew is so world class cute!
🦊 Aaahhh! (op's name) is cuter!
💗 Thank you~😭😭❤️ +

A. I still keep in touch with the members of bp, especially Matthew and Hao. We are busy with our own debuts, but in between we encourage each other to "take care of ourselves and do our best".

👤 What is Matthew like to Hanbin?
🐹 My flank... :) We are always together!
This is an English translation based on a Japanese translation, so it may differ slightly🙏🏼
ZB1 was featured on the news this morning.
The music video for the new song and the fact that for the first time in K-pop history, a debut album sold over 2 million copies was introduced.
ZB1 was certified double platinum (500,000 CD sales) by the RIAJ Gold Disc Certification. Only two groups, including them, received this certification in March 2024.
〈Japanese comments〉
- He is really too nice and kind.
- When I see this kind of thing, I really think it's like him and it makes me feel kind. I want him to be happy.
- Every time I see something like this, I feel happy to know him and support him.
Matthew never says anything about what he has done for someone else. We always hear about it from other members and staff. I think it is because doing something for someone is so natural for him that it goes without saying. I respect him not only as an idol but also as a person.
"Matthew's slot" is trending in Japan, because many people are looking for Matthew's slot in the joint purchase.
His slot fill up so quickly that everyone is having a hard time finding it.
