On April 3, ENHYPEN released a new episode of EN-O’CLOCK, featuring the group doing different activities on a basketball court.
A clip of the video featuring members of the group talking about Sunoo‘s eating habits was reposted online and led to accusations of fat-shaming. Many were critical of the members’ comments as it was not the first time they had been accused of targeting Sunoo.

Now, fans believe the group may have indirectly addressed the accusations of fat-shaming.
On April 4, ENHYPEN released “Loose,” an English single ahead of their performance at Coachella 2025.
Like all K-Pop releases, the group have already began promoting it through the usual avenues, including on TikTok. Along with there already being a dance challenge, the group have filmed other videos using the track.

On April 5, a TikTok featuring Jake, Jay, and Sunoo was shared. The video begins with Jake before transitioning to Jay and Sunoo sitting at a table, as Jay cleans. Sunoo hesitates eating the snacks he has, before moving when Jay looks at him as he’s about to take a bite.

The moment between Jay and Sunoo has sparked discussion, as Jay was one of the members that was accused of making fat-shaming comments. Many felt as though this was their way of addressing the controversy, with some even saying it was as though they were “making fun.”
Still, others saw it in a different light, commenting that it was potentially filmed before the issue, and that it was another instance of commentary on Sunoo’s eating habits, even if in jest.
everyone calling this person dumb bc “enhypen clocked yall. theyre making fun of yall” when the vid is literally pre-recorded. which makes it more weird bc the actions in the vid had NOTHING to do with the song whatsoever but OK https://t.co/rI2v9M3Dy1
