The group ZEROBASEONE has proven its strong global popularity by charting on the U.S. Billboard for two consecutive weeks.
On the 22nd (local time), the American music media Billboard announced the latest chart (dated April 26), stating that ZEROBASEONE (Seong Han-bin, Kim Ji-woong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Ricky, Kim Kyu-bin, Park Geon-wook, Han Yu-jin) entered four institutional sectors with their mini album 'BLUE PARADISE.'
'BLUE PARADISE' ranked 28th on the Billboard 200 last week, marking the highest rank for the fifth generation of K-pop groups. With this, ZEROBASEONE has written a new history of K-pop in the U.S. right along with its debut in Korea, firmly establishing itself as a 'global top tier.'
Riding this momentum, ZEROBASEONE's presence is prominent on this week's Billboard chart as well. ZEROBASEONE is ranked 2nd in 'World Albums,' 4th in 'Emerging Artists,' 17th in 'Top Current Album Sales,' and 23rd in 'Top Album Sales,' continuing to enjoy hot popularity.
In this way, ZEROBASEONE has achieved remarkable results on the Billboard chart right after its formal debut in the U.S., further elevating the status of K-pop. Notably, the record for 'BLUE PARADISE' is particularly noteworthy since it was not released simultaneously in Korea and the U.S. Consequently, ZEROBASEONE is exerting its influence beyond Korea into the global music market, establishing itself as a 'fifth-generation icon,' drawing attention to its future activities.
ZEROBASEONE successfully held its second fan concert 'BLUE MANSION' at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul, from the 18th to the 20th, thrilling numerous fans. Following this, ZEROBASEONE will release the first episode of its self-produced content 'ZBTBING' Season 2 on its official YouTube channel on the 24th at 8 p.m., continuing to communicate with fans in various ways.
