ZEROBASEONE Continues to Captivate Fans with 'BLUE PARADISE' and Dance Challenges

ZEROBASEONE is showcasing their unwavering popularity.

The group, consisting of Sung Han-bin, Kim Ji-woong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Ricky, Kim Gyu-bin, Park Gun-wook, and Han Yu-jin, released their fifth mini-album 'BLUE PARADISE' on the 24th of last month. The dance challenges for the title track 'BLUE' and other songs from the album continue to receive enthusiastic responses.

The 'BLUE' challenge has seen participation from a variety of artists, including Kim Jae-joong, ONF's Seungjun, Chungha, Lucy's Shin Ye-chan, and LE SSERAFIM's Sakura, as well as TV personality Jonathan and dancer-creator Aiki. Their involvement has added to the fun, with choreography that enhances the refreshing chemistry among the participants.

The track 'Devil Game' features choreography by Bada, the leader of BEBE, the winning team of Mnet's 'Street Woman Fighter 2'. The dance challenge for this song is packed with powerful moves that showcase performance skills. Artists like INFINITE's Lee Sung-jong, VANNER's Gon, Young Posse's Wi Yeon-jung, and EVEN's Yoo Seung-eon have joined forces with ZEROBASEONE.

ZEROBASEONE initially sparked the dance challenge craze with the pre-release track 'Doctor! Doctor!'. This challenge gained attention as it marked the first K-pop challenge participation by will.i.am, leader of the legendary hip-hop group Black Eyed Peas. The choreography is addictive, featuring hand gestures spelling 'LOVE' followed by a cupid's arrow motion.

In addition to will.i.am, actors Jung Kyung-ho, ATEEZ's Wooyoung, GFRIEND's Sowon, GOT7's Jackson & Jinyoung, RISE's Sohee & BOYNEXTDOOR's Myung Jae-hyun, IVE's Leeseo, and KISS OF LIFE's Natty have participated in the 'Doctor! Doctor!' challenge.

Even after concluding their 'BLUE PARADISE' promotions, ZEROBASEONE continues to enjoy immense popularity. The album sold over 1.2 million copies on its first day, achieving 'five consecutive million-seller' status, and the title track 'BLUE' won three music show awards.
