The group ZEROBASEONE won the No. 1 trophy on music shows for four consecutive days.
ZEROBASEONE (Sung Hanbin, Kim Ji-woong, Jang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, RIKY, Kim Gyu-bin, Park Geon-uk, Han Yoo-jin) took first place on the K-Chart with the title track "ICONIK" from their first full-length album "NEVER SAY NEVER" on KBS 2TV's Music Bank, which aired on the 12th.
With this, ZEROBASEONE swept four music show trophies, rising to No. 1 on The Show, Show! Champion, M Countdown and Music Bank.
ZEROBASEONE said, "We think this award is an iconic gift that ZEROSE (the fandom name) has given us. Everything we are achieving is thanks to our fans. We sincerely thank you and will work even harder."
On the day, ZEROBASEONE performed an energetic group routine to "ICONIK." Amid varied formation changes, a groove-filled performance maximized audience immersion. They showed a more mature side with relaxed stage manners and gestures.
In particular, member Kim Ji-woong added special meaning by calmly leading the live broadcast as Music Bank's special MC. Kim Ji-woong's characteristic gentle and witty speaking style amplified the viewing enjoyment.
ZEROBASEONE achieved "six consecutive million-seller" status, selling more than 1.51 million copies in the week after the release of their first full-length album "NEVER SAY NEVER," once again rewriting K-pop history and demonstrating their worth as a global top-tier act.
Proving this, ZEROBASEONE is sweeping major domestic and international album and digital charts simultaneously upon their comeback. "NEVER SAY NEVER" ranked No. 2 on both the weekly album ranking and the weekly combined album ranking of Japan's Oricon chart dated Sept. 15 (tracking period Sept. 1–7), and the title track "ICONIK" placed third as a hot shot song on the Billboard Japan chart (tracking period Sept. 1–7). The "ICONIK" music video has surpassed 50 million views, enjoying overwhelming global popularity.
