”ZERO BASE ONE” ranked 4th in Billboard JAPAN's ”Top Album Sales” for the first half of the year... explosive popularity across the country

The group "ZERO BASE ONE" has surpassed Korea and is once again taking control of the Japanese archipelago, attracting attention. Billboard
According to the financial results for the first half of 2025 announced by JAPAN on the 6th, ZERO BASE ONE's first EP in Japan, "PREZENT
" ranked 4th in "Top Album Sales". (Collection period: November 25, 2024 - May 25, 2025)
In particular, "ZERO BASE ONE," which does not have any Japanese members, was the only group to rank high on the chart.
This achievement is even more noteworthy as they are the first K-POP group to achieve this. Prior to this, ZERO BASE ONE had been self-selling at the time of the release of their first Japanese EP "PREZENT".
Following the record-breaking sales volume, the album also ranked first on both the Oricon weekly album rankings and the weekly combined album rankings, sparking a "ZB1 boom" across the country.
"PREZENT" is an art that "ZERO BASE ONE" sends as a gift to "ZEROSE" (fandom name) who always sends unchanging love and support.
The album includes four new Japanese original songs and two songs adapted from Korean songs. The wide range of musical breadth of "ZERO BASE ONE" is well received in each of the different genres.
Thus, ZERO BASE ONE, who is enjoying a syndrome-level popularity in Japan, has released their 5th mini album "BLUE
PARADISE" and was ranked #1 on the Billboard main chart in the United States.
They made their debut on the Billboard 200 at number 28, breaking the previous record for a fifth-generation K-pop group.
It has been in the top 10 for 8 weeks and continues to rise without any brakes. ZERO BASE ONE has an overwhelming presence in the two major music markets of the world, America and Japan.
Meanwhile, ZERO BASE ONE will be taking part in a festival commemorating the 140th anniversary of the founding of Yonsei University on the 8th.
