The 2023 Asia Artist Awards (AAAs) held in the Philippines on December 14 saw an exciting lineup of K-Pop idols, including ZEROBASEONE (ZB1) and NewJeans, who graced the event with their presence. However, it wasn’t just the performances and awards that caught attention; an unexpected moment involving ZEROBASEONE added a touch of humor and excitement to the ceremony.

During SEVENTEEN’s sub-unit BSS‘s performance, ZEROBASEONE, known as fanboys of their sunbaes (seniors), exhibited their enthusiasm to the extent that they accidentally broke their own table. The energetic response to SEVENTEEN’s stage led to the collapse of their table, creating a memorable and unexpected moment at the AAAs.

Interestingly, ZEROBASEONE wasn’t the only group dealing with a table mishap at the awards ceremony. NewJeans, who won multiple awards throughout the night, faced a similar situation. As they repeatedly left their table to receive awards, the constant movement seemed to make their table unstable.
