Although the agency did not specify the matter in its statement, Gunil recently came under fire after a post said that the drummer frequently insulted fans.
The poster, who claimed to be the drummer’s former girlfriend, wrote that he “often insults fans in front of me and is very different from how he normally behaves and appears on broadcasts.” The poster added they had felt uncomfortable and wanted to talk about it but kept it to themself before eventually deciding to upload the post because “seeing him on a broadcast made it especially difficult.”
Xdinary Heroes debuted in December 2021 and is known for tracks such as “Happy Death Day” (2021), “Hello, World!” (2022), “Deadlock” (2023), “FiRE (My Sweet Misery)” (2025) and “X room.”
The band, now a quintet, consists of members Jooyeon, Jungsu, Gaon, Jun Han and O.de.
