ENHYPEN’s Sunoo

On April 3, ENHYPEN released a new episode of their EN-O’CLOCK YouTube series, featuring the group doing various activities on a basketball court.

During the first half of the video, the group are treated to a meal by the episode’s sponsor and sit at set up tables on the court. At one point, the members encourage Jake, who is attempting to bulk up, to eat more food.

Sunghoon then points out Sunoo, who has stopped eating saying that he knows that he can eat more than he has already. The others laugh as Sunoo agrees, and someone comments that he must be trying to “watch his image” on the program.

The members question if he would be able to eat everything, while Jay affirms that he would, commenting that “Sunoo could eat this entire table.” Sunoo does not seem to react to this, directly, leading some to believe he was made uncomfortable.

The clip was reposted to X, where fans shared their opinions. Many felt that this was another instance of members of the group speaking negatively about Sunoo’s eating habits, and criticized the group.

Others felt this was just joking between the members, rather than Sunoo being shamed or bullied.

Although fans make it clear that they know how much the members care and love Sunoo, many want to press that it is also possible for hurtful comments to made, even between friends.
