ZEROBASEONE Makes Waves in Bangkok: “A Year of Dedication, Ready for What’s Next”

ZEROBASEONE (Sung Han-bin, Kim Ji-woong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Tae-rae, Ricky, Kim Gyu-vin, Park Gun-wook, and Han Yu-jin) has solidified its position as a leading 5th-generation boy group, reflecting their growing global popularity.

On December 27th, at the 9th Asia Artist Awards (AAA 2024), held at the IMPACT Challenger Hall 1-2 in Bangkok, Thailand, ZEROBASEONE won both the AAA Best Artist and Best Musician Group awards, marking a triumphant double win.

Before the event, the group shared their excitement about meeting local K-pop fans. Kim Ji-woong said, "It feels so great and joyful to be in Thailand, and we’re thrilled by all the love and attention we’ve received here." Ricky added, "We’re so thankful for the love we’re getting in Thailand. It makes us feel more responsible, and we want to showcase our best on stage."

During the event, ZEROBASEONE performed a revamped version of Dear ECLIPSE tailored for AAA 2024 and presented a special stage featuring a popular OST from the tvN drama The One I Carry on My Shoulders. The energy in the venue was electrifying, with massive digital billboards inside and outside the hall featuring the group’s images, highlighting their global impact.

After the performance, Seok Matthew reflected on the experience:
"It was so much fun! Performing the special stage and bringing a fresh take on Dear ECLIPSE, which we’ve only done in concerts, to the AAA stage was exciting and meaningful. I’m grateful and will continue to work hard. I love you all!"

This year, the group released two successful albums, the mini 3rd album You Had Me at HELLO in May and the mini 4th album CINEMA PARADISE in August. They also completed their debut international tour, TIMELESS WORLD, performing 14 shows across eight cities.
