Recently, a clip of ZEROBASEONE‘s Ricky has sparked a debate.

In a video circulating online, Ricky is seen sitting next to a manager, who first appears to massage his shoulder. He then moves his hand out of view behind Ricky’s back, who seems to jolt a little bit at the contact.
The clip was shared on TikTok, where it currently has over 200 thousand views. Some believe the idol stated that his back was hurting, and that was why the staff member began to rub him.

Others felt that even then, Ricky looked uncomfortable and cited other instances of his alleged mistreatment at the hands of WAKEONE. Since their debut, fans have called out the company on multiple occasions on behalf of Ricky, with the idol even seemingly making complaints of his own.
