zach sang is an incredible interviewer and the fact that instead of calling him out for his quiet he just politely directed a question at junhan which avoids any embarrassment and discomfort is just so so amazing i have such respect for him

He also touched on topics most interviewers wouldn’t touch, such as cultural appropriation.
In an interview with THEBLACKLABEL‘s LØREN, Zach Sang also revealed that he is given many rules when interviewing idols, such as, “We used to get crazy notes like, ‘Can’t show knees. Or can’t f*cking [show some other common thing]…’”
Despite his good reputation in the K-Pop community, the internet is exposing Zach Sang for being “problematic” and “inappropriate” with his guests, specifically young women.
The Zach Sang Show has been in hot water since July when clips of interviews with actress and singer Sabrina Carpenter resurfaced. In many clips, Sabrina was a very young adult, but Zach’s friend and co-host Dan Zolot would attempt to flirt with her.
with all this stuff coming out about zach sang here is both dan and zach being weird to sabrina carpenter for 2 mins pic.twitter.com/1EMaMhrHoP

One of the worst clips is when Sabrina was still a teenager. Dan Zolot asked her if she partakes in sexting, to which she denied. Zach Sang chimed in but made it worse by talking about his own experience of receiving nudes.
no because i will never forget sabrinas first interview with them. they SCRUBBED it off the internet but this is the only clip i can find, and its bad enough. like why are these grown men talking to a minor about nud3s and if she sends them?? pic.twitter.com/6qqIoaiXtr

Sabrina Carpenter even “walked out” in an interview when Zach Sang asked her to be Dan Zolot’s first date.

Sabrina Carpenter wasn’t the only one. There are cringe moments featuring Madison Beer, Poppy, Tarayummy, Hailee Steinfeld, Elizabeth Gillies, Billie Eilish, Brittany Broski, Ariana Grande, and Kendall and Kylie Jenner.

Netizens pointed out that Dan Zolot was the one mainly responsible for these inappropriate moments with female guests. Yet, most agree Zach Sang is enabling Dan’s bad behavior.
zach has been enabling dan’s weird behavior toward guests for years. anybody else remember him asking sabrina carpenter ON AIR if she would hang out with dan outside the show and making her talk her way out of it?

what’s up with Dan and being obsessed with asking if ppl are excited to turn 18 :/ pic.twitter.com/wGu4ZJr5dS

They feel Dan has “predator”-like tendencies, often asking young women about their age. He’s asked more than one their feelings about turning 18.
So…his friend seems like a full on predator ngl

Still, netizens feel Zach isn’t so innocent, so he doesn’t reprimand his friend. They pointed out that Zach Sang is 31 with a 22-year-old boyfriend, Aussie Tiktoker Jayden Clark.
okay so why am i only discovering now that zach sang is gay and why his bf looks like his son ?? pic.twitter.com/9oWhtFy8rm
— romeo 🎀 (@lmbc04) August 5, 2024
and now he is like 31 dating a 22 year old twink who looks 17
— mani (@realmugged) July 23, 2024
Zach Sang is 31 years old and his boyfriend Jayden Clark is 22 years old. For all those people excusing this with, “22 IS legal!!!” You’re showing yourself to be as big as a creep as Zach is. What in the world do you have in common with a 22 yr old at 31 besides body parts?
— Kare (@CallMeKaare) July 11, 2024
There was misinformation circulating that he was only 20. Still, they have an eight-year age gap, and Jayden Clark is reportedly Zach’s first boyfriend and has openly talked about recently losing his virginity to him.

Additionally, Zach Sang has been under fire for allegedly talking behind his friend Ariana Grande’s back. Tana Mongeau and Brook Schofield opened up about his alleged behavior on the Cancelled Podcast. Schofield revealed she had been friends with him, but he exploited her trauma, and she begged him to delete portions from a recorded and released episode of his show.

Considering the recent controversies, netizens find it alarming that guests, including young women, such as 16-year-old Ariana Greenblatt, are continuing to appear on the Zach Sang Show.
