School Attack is a series where idols visit various schools to perform surprise concerts with specific missions.
However, something Gyuvin said in a certain clip caused a stir among fans.
하오:보고싶었어요?
규빈:콘서트보다 소리가 커요
건욱:강당시설이굉장히잘되어있는것같아요
규빈:그니까그니까'함성소리'라는 단어가 어디나와..?
앞뒤다짤라먹고 욕부터하는거 이거 맞아요? pic.twitter.com/vS2QheJRwD— 웅__2🕯 (@gimnagy93470884) February 10, 2025
Jiwoong: Did you miss us?
Gyuvin: It’s louder than a concert!
Geonwook: I think the equipment here is really good quality.
Gyuvin: I know, right?
After hearing this, many fans criticized his statement for comparing the cheers with a concert.
욕하는거랑 별개로 함성소리 비교한거 맞다고 잼로즈들아 함성유도하고 바로 저 발언하는데 억지도 적당히 부려야지 규빈이가 스스로 잘못 인정하고 조심하겠다는데 왜 팬들이 나서서 자꾸 억울한 사람 만듦? 쉴드라고 다 쉴드가 아니예요~ https://t.co/ag4becN1SI

Aside from the criticism, it’s true that he was comparing the cheers. He said that right after they encouraged cheering. Stop acting stubbornly. Gyuvin apologized and admitted his mistake, but why do fans keep trying to protect him? Some things need to be said.
Gyuvin also posted an apology through the messaging app regarding his actions.
“Zerose, I’m sorry for disappointing you with something I said during filming today. I thought that many people who came today didn’t know us, but many people welcomed us, which made me a bit more nervous.
And so, while I was trying to thank everyone, I compared the cheers to a concert…something I should have never done. I didn’t think properly, and I am truly sorry. I am grateful to Zerose, who can never be replaced or compared. I learned a lot from this situation, and I will never make the same mistake again. I truly apologize to all who were hurt by this…”

However, Korean netizens felt that fans were taking things way too far.
- “My heart hearts for him.”
- “There are times when I feel really bad for idols, and that time is right now.”
- “He had to write an apology for that? I’m not a fan, but this is just ridiculous.”
