Park Gun-wook (Korean박건욱; born January 10, 2005) is a South Korean singer. He is best known for competing on the Mnet reality competition show Boys Planet, where he ranked fifth in the final episode, making him a member of Zerobaseone.

Early life

[edit]

Park Gun-wook was born on January 10, 2005, in Osan, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea.

He was admitted into elementary school a year before his peers and graduated from high school in 2023. Served as the president of his school.[1]

Career

[edit]

To celebrate his 20th birthday, Park released his first original song "Placebo" on January 10, 2025. The idea came around during Zerobaseone's Timeless World concert tour in Seoul back in September 2024, with Park wanting to write a song dedicated to his fans, likening the support they give him to a placebo effect.[2] Park and fellow Zerobaseone member Seok Matthew released the song "Back Packer" on January 24 for the TV series Study Group.[3]

Public image
