Amidst the various idol companies, Yuehua Entertainment has been the center of criticism and controversy. In particular, with the treatment of their groups and idols who are in survival show groups, such as ZEROBASEONE.

Yet, it seems like the company has sparked even more controversy after an X account that posts information about the upcoming boy group gained attention for a tweet.
In the post, the OP shared pictures and videos of someone possibly linked with the company or the upcoming group, and along with initials, they explained he was a maknae and 13 years old.

It sparked major anger among fans that someone so young could possibly be part of such an intense and sometimes toxic industry. In particular, with rumors surrounding the new group possibly containing members of ZEROBASEONE who are not renewing the group contract, it blew fans’ minds that someone so young could possibly be debuting alongside adults.
13 YEAR OLD? THE INDUSTRY IS CRAZY

Fans pointed out that it might be possible that the person is actually just a trainee and not yet slated to debut. However, it still seems crazy to fans that someone so young is already preparing to enter the idol industry.
