The group ZEROBASEONE grabbed a music show first-place trophy the moment they made their comeback.
ZEROBASEONE (Sung Hanbin, Kim Ji-woong, Jang Ha-o, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Ricky, Kim Gyu-bin, Park Geon-uk, Han Yu-jin) won The Show Choice, the equivalent of first place, on the cable channel SBS funE's The Show, broadcast on the afternoon of the 9th, with the title track "Iconik" from their first full-length album "Never Say Never (NEVER SAY NEVER)."
ZEROBASEONE said, "First, thank you to ZEROSE (ZEROSE, the fandom name). This is our first first-place since starting activities for the first full-length album 'Never Say Never,' and it's all thanks to the fans. We are always grateful for your great love. We will continue to work hard as ZEROBASEONE."
That day ZEROBASEONE transformed into nine distinct racers racing through infinite space, delivering intense yet powerful synchronized choreography and dominating the stage. "Iconik" offers the peak of the nine members' vocal chemistry by repeating tension and release within a refined groove based on nu-disco sound and tight rhythms. Armed with the charm of "Iconik," ZEROBASEONE portrayed in a vivid performance their bold ambition to shine even brighter, like the song lyrics about defying gravity to reach the moon.
ZEROBASEONE sold more than 1.51 million copies in the week after the release of their first full-length album "Never Say Never," achieving a sixth consecutive million-seller and creating another new K-pop milestone. In particular, according to the Hanteo Chart, ZEROBASEONE became the first fifth-generation K-pop group to record cumulative album sales of more than 9 million and also ranked as the K-pop group to reach 9 million copies fastest in the past two years.
Moreover, ZEROBASEONE has demonstrated its strength as a "global top-tier" act by sweeping top positions on major domestic and international charts. Meanwhile, the music video for the title track "Iconik" has surpassed 50 million views, receiving explosive support from fandoms at home and abroad. From debut to now, ZEROBASEONE, which has been continuously renewing its growth narrative, will meet fans through various music shows and web variety programs going forward.
