Career
To celebrate his 20th birthday, Park released his first original song "Placebo" on January 10, 2025. The idea came around during Zerobaseone's Timeless World concert tour in Seoul back in September 2024, with Park wanting to write a song dedicated to his fans, likening the support they give him to a placebo effect.{{Cite youtube |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Psy3bUcDujY |title=GUN WOOK {{!}} 'Placebo' Behind Interview |date=January 10, 2025 |last=Zerobaseone |author-link=Zerobaseone |type=Video |language=ko |access-date=January 14, 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250112154956/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Psy3bUcDujY |archive-date=January 12, 2025 |via=YouTube}} Park and fellow Zerobaseone member Seok Matthew released the song "Back Packer" on January 24 for the TV series Study Group.{{Cite web |last=Shin |first=Hwa-sook |date=January 24, 2025 |title=제베원 석매튜X박건욱, '스터디그룹' OST '백패커' 발매 |trans-title=Zerobaseone's Seok Matthew X Park Gun-wook, 'Study Group' OST 'Backpacker' released |url=https://www.viva100.com/article/20250124500518 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250202191553/https://www.viva100.com/article/20250124500518 |archive-date=February 2, 2025 |access-date=February 2, 2025 |website=Bridge Economy |language=ko}}
