ZEROBASEONE, the group that debuted through Mnet's 'Boys Planet' in 2023, has surpassed 500 million cumulative streams on Spotify, the world's largest music streaming platform. On September 25, during the final stage of 'Boys 2 Planet,' an 8-member group named Alpha Drive One was introduced as the successors to ZEROBASEONE.

According to Spotify, ZEROBASEONE (members: Sung Hanbin, Kim Jiwoong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Taerae, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin, Park Gunwook, Han Yujin) has achieved a total of 520.19 million streams for all their songs released domestically, as of September 27. This milestone highlights their impressive global growth.

The group's debut mini-album 'YOUTH IN THE SHADE,' which marks the beginning of ZEROBASEONE's journey, has recorded 148.64 million streams, showcasing their continued popularity. The album's title track, 'In Bloom,' has also surpassed 73.45 million streams, capturing the essence of ZEROBASEONE's identity and the love from their fans, known as ZEROSE.

ZEROBASEONE's first full-length album 'NEVER SAY NEVER' has maintained its popularity by staying on the U.S. Billboard charts for three consecutive weeks. As of the latest Billboard chart dated October 4, 'NEVER SAY NEVER' ranks 5th on the 'World Albums' chart, 8th on the 'Emerging Artists' chart, 21st on the 'Top Current Album Sales' chart, and 25th on the 'Top Album Sales' chart.

ZEROBASEONE will kick off their '2025 ZEROBASEONE WORLD TOUR 'HERE&NOW'' with performances in Seoul from October 3 to 5. The Seoul concerts, which mark the start of their world tour, sold out all three shows during the pre-sale, leading to the addition of restricted-view seats, further proving their strong ticket-selling power. ZEROBASEONE promises to deliver an expanded and extraordinary performance to thank their domestic and international fans for their overwhelming support.
