The group ZEROBASEONE has once again proven its status as a "global top-tier" artist. ZEROBASEONE was recently selected as the "K-Pop Artist of the Year" at the world-renowned music event, Record Store Day. Record Store Day is an international event held worldwide, including in the United States, to promote the development of independent record stores. Each year, it features limited edition releases from famous artists, sharing its meaningful purpose.

To commemorate this, ZEROBASEONE will exclusively release a limited edition vinyl (LP) of their first full-length album, NEVER SAY NEVER. This vinyl will be produced in a special edition "Cookie Monster" blue color and will include a gatefold package, a vinyl-exclusive poster, and a set of nine photo cards featuring exclusive images of each member.

ZEROBASEONE expressed, "It is a great honor to be selected as the 'K-Pop Artist of the Year' at Record Store Day. The year 2025 has been an amazing year in which we were able to achieve the things we have always dreamed of. We thank everyone who made this wonderful result possible, especially ZEROSE, our fandom."

The first full-length album NEVER SAY NEVER has become an important milestone in ZEROBASEONE's musical journey. ZEROBASEONE completed the most iconic "TEAM ZB1" synergy through the "Youth Trilogy" and the "Paradise Duology." They conveyed a strong message of encouragement that "impossible is nothing (NEVER SAY NEVER)" to those who dream of something special even in ordinary reality, expressing a powerful will to challenge.

NEVER SAY NEVER entered the US Billboard 200, the main album chart, at number 23 shortly after its domestic release last September, setting a new personal record. This figure represents ZEROBASEONE's musical achievements and served as an opportunity to further solidify their position as a K-POP artist.

ZEROBASEONE's Record Store Day limited edition vinyl will be sold locally in the United States starting April 18. Detailed information regarding this can be found on ZEROBASEONE's official website. Through this achievement, ZEROBASEONE is expected to stand out even more in the global K-POP market.
