ZEROBASEONE (members: Sung Hanbin, Kim Jiwoong, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae Rae, and Park Gun-wook) achieved the No. 1 position on Japan's Oricon Daily Album Chart with their Japanese EP 2nd album 'Kaikisha Love' released on the 19th. This accomplishment marks their first Japanese activity in approximately 10 months following their transition from a 9-member project group to a 5-member lineup, demonstrating that their influence in the local market remains unshaken despite the team restructuring. 'Kaikisha Love' consists of three tracks including the title song 'Existence,' 'Aphrodite,' and a Japanese version of 'TOP 5,' all conveying the message of 'returning to you.' The project features collaboration with Japanese band Omoinotake, blending ZEROBASEONE's youthful sensibilities with authentic Japanese musical elements. The music video cinematically portrays moments of youth while showcasing the members' increasingly mature charm. ZEROBASEONE has steadily expanded their fanbase in Japan through albums and live performances, while also establishing their global presence by charting on Billboard's 'World Albums' and 'Emerging Artists' charts. The group will begin full-scale 'Kaikisha Love' activities starting from the 20th through direct fan meetings.
