The group ZEROBASEONE demonstrated a powerful presence in the global music market.
ZEROBASEONE (Sung Hanbin, Kim Ji-ung, Jang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Ricky, Kim Gyu-bin, Park Geon-uk, Han Yu-jin) ranked seventh with their first full-length album NEVER SAY NEVER and 12th with their fifth mini album BLUE PARADISE on the "Global Album Sales Chart" released by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) on its official website.
In particular, ZEROBASEONE was the only fifth-generation group to appear on the chart and demonstrated overwhelming global influence by placing two albums on the ranking.
The "Global Album Sales Chart" aggregates physical album sales and digital song download figures sold worldwide each year and ranks up to 20. Among them, ZEROBASEONE recorded the highest position among fifth-generation groups, showcasing their strength as a "global top tier."
As such, ZEROBASEONE has been steadily active on global annual charts, showing an upward growth curve. After the release of their first full-length album NEVER SAY NEVER, they entered the U.S. Billboard main albums chart, the Billboard 200, at No. 23, setting their personal best.
Riding that momentum, ZEROBASEONE was recently named "K-Pop Artist of the Year" by the global record event Record Store Day, further enhancing their global standing.
Meanwhile, ZEROBASEONE will hold an encore concert, 2026 ZEROBASEONE WORLD TOUR 'HERE&NOW' ENCORE, at KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Songpa District, Seoul, from March 13 to 15, capping off their world tour.
