Hello :) do you possibly know what is it with Zelo and socks? Could you maybe explain why everyone says he loves socks, is there any sources where he have said so?
So there have been more than a few instances where Zelo has mentioned the fact he collects socks or views socks as a “point” in his fashion choices. We looked through a few different sites to find translations of interviews or just his own posts about socks. Some of them range from recently to all the way back in 2013. We didn’t want to include every interview where he mentions it (mostly because we’re lazy and the person who was digging for source links had to leave for work before getting more) but we have a few links where he mentions his sock love. There were a few this year that some admins saw on Twitter but they’re not as easy to find so we’re not linking to them. Sorry!
ZL: I have MP3 to listen to music, a cap so that I can put it on anytime I want, and socks. Is this strange? ^^ - september 2013 interview

ZL: My hobby is saving the photos that the hyungs send, and in my diary, write about what happened that day, writing some raps… I like collecting socks too. My skill is impersonating Jongup hyung and becoming friends with Jongup’s friends immediately. - december 2016 interview
It is definitely a thing based on his real life preferences.
Hope the few sources we provided helped out a little with your question!
As an overall helpful though we suggest reading any translated interviews or articles you come across.
