Distance is not a hindrance when you passionately support your idols. This is what the local Filipino fanbase, ZB1 Philippines, continues to prove as they prepare a special arcade-themed celebration for ZEROBASEONE’S 100th Day on October 22 at Starmall EDSA Shaw in Mandaluyong.
ZEROBASEONE or ZB1 is a Korean Pop idol group formed through the MNET survival show, Boys Planet. Dubbed as the pioneer of the 5th generation and the 2023 super rookies, ZB1 debuted last July 10 with the album ‘Youth in the Shade’.

The super rookie group consists of Sung Hanbin, Zhang Hao, Kim Jiwoong, Seok Matthew, Kim Taerae, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin, Park Gunwook, and Han Yujin broke records with a 1,240,700 sold album copies on its first day—the first Kpop debut album to do so. They have also set various records such as the fastest group to achieve million followers on Instagram, highest first-day album sale for any K-pop group in China, and highest album pre-order in one of the world’s largest online K-pop stores, Ktown4U.
On October 22, the local fanbase ZB1 Philippines will organize a one-day event in line with the super rookie group’s 100 days. The 9BITZ on the Block: A Hundred Days with ZEROSE will highlight jam-packed activities such as individual fanbase booths, free fan kits, games, random play dance, and raffle.
Through the celebration, ZB1PH hopes to commemorate the group’s achievements for the past 100 days and to further promote ZEROBASEONE in the Philippines. The group will mark their first group comeback this November 6 with ‘Melting Point’.
ZEROBASEONE is set to visit the Philippines on December 14 for the Asia Artist Awards at the Philippine Arena, Bulacan.
