ZEROBASEONE, the nine-member multinational project boy band formed on Mnet’s "Boys Planet" and launched in July 2023, will continue as a full unit through March. All nine members agreed to a two-month extension, powered by fans’ overwhelming support.
WAKEONE said it decided to extend the group’s run “to meaningfully continue the time we’ve shared with fans around the world,” adding, “To express our gratitude on stage and through music, the members are united in preparing an encore concert and a new release.”
Fueled by the members’ dedication to the team and the unwavering love of ZEROSE, the group’s official fandom, ZEROBASEONE will remain active as a complete unit until March. Plans include an encore leg of the 2025 ZEROBASEONE WORLD TOUR ‘HERE&NOW’ and a new project on the release calendar.
At the September media showcase for their first studio album, NEVER SAY NEVER, leader Sung Hanbin addressed contract questions: “We’re having as many conversations as possible and looking for the best path; nothing is finalized yet,” he said. “Most important is presenting a meaningful first full-length album to the public and our fans. We want to wrap this promotion healthy and happy―and keep growing from here.”
The group’s original project term was two years and six months, with activities initially slated to end on Jan. 10 next year.
Since debut, ZEROBASEONE has scored six consecutive million-selling releases, cementing its status as a leading act of K-pop’s fifth generation. The group has continued to expand its presence on global charts, including Billboard in the U.S. and Oricon in Japan. Their 2025 HERE&NOW world tour has racked up sellouts, underscoring the act’s formidable drawing power worldwide.
