ZEROBASEONE Delivers Unpredictable Fun with New Episode of 'ZBTVing'
ZEROBASEONE, the group that debuted as a nine-member ensemble in 2023, has brought a unique twist with an unpredictable identity battle. Following the conclusion of their official activities, the group underwent a reorganization. Last month, members Zhang Hao, Ricky, Kim Gyu-bin, and Han Yu-jin from YH Entertainment (formerly Yuehua) completed their contracts with WAKEONE and are preparing to re-debut in a new group. Consequently, ZEROBASEONE has been restructured into a five-member group.

On the afternoon of the 17th, ZEROBASEONE (Sung Han-bin, Kim Ji-woong, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Park Gun-wook) released the first episode of 'ZBTVing' titled 'Men Living with the King' on their official YouTube channel.

In this episode, Sung Han-bin transformed into a singer, Kim Ji-woong into a flower boy, Seok Matthew into a warrior, Kim Tae-rae into a doctor, and Park Gun-wook into the crown prince. The 'Petition Finding Race' began in earnest, with the mission to find evidence against a traitor plotting a rebellion under the king's orders.

The first round involved finding petitions hidden throughout a folk village, with members nominating one person as the traitor. The accused was dragged to the authorities, received a flogging, and was released, all while completing hidden missions suited to their roles, providing a rich viewing experience.

Seok Matthew was the first to find a petition and chose Kim Tae-rae as the traitor without hesitation, shaking up the dynamics. In this unpredictable storyline, ZEROBASEONE continued the chase, offering an immersive experience.

Towards the end of the video, Kim Ji-woong, who hadn't found any petitions, finally got his hands on one, hinting at an exciting development. Curiosity is building over which member will be accused the most and fall to the status of a servant in the next episode.

ZEROBASEONE seamlessly blended into the setting of traditional Korean attire and a folk village, showcasing their unique variety skills with witty acting and ever-changing situational comedy. Their delightful chemistry added to the humor.

'ZBTVing' is a self-produced content series capturing ZEROBASEONE's natural moments off-stage, receiving great acclaim from global K-POP fans through its diverse concepts. The next episode of 'Men Living with the King' will be released on the ZEROBASEONE official YouTube channel at 8 PM on the 24th.
