Yeah I remember how he said crying hard on No.Mercy when they asked why he wanted to be an idol that he gave a lot of trouble and money issues to his mom and he wanted to repay her. And he really did. I dont care what people say about Wonho I know he genuinely have a good heart and I admire his ambition and work ethic a lot. Even when his future was uncertain and MX was just getting more popular he decided to take the L instead of waiting for Starship to make a decision.
I'm a recent fan and have only seen a little of No Mercy. I know they didn't have a good experience in it and haven't had that much desire to watch it. Everything I have seen of Wonho though makes me think that he is an earnest hardworker. People judge him for his outfits and other stuff that just doesn't matter imo.
