ZEROBASEONE's Upcoming Album 'Youth in the Shade' Reaches One Million Mark in Stock Pre-Orders
On July 4, ZEROBASEONE's upcoming mini album 'Youth in the Shade' made a historic feat in K-pop by reaching 1,080,000 stock pre-orders.
ZEROBASEONE has been receiving attention from the K-pop community for their talent and charisma. With their release's early achievements, fans have never been excited for the boys, as the group will soon offer more of their activities and contents.
Initially on June 26, "Youth in the Shade" also exceeded 780,000 stock pre-orders, according to Genie Music. This can only mean that the album had reached this figure in just five days.
The group also gained attention from netizens, who congratulated the boys for their impressive 780,000 pre-order accomplishment. Netters stated how amazed they were with ZEROBASEONE for achieving such feat despite being a rookie group.
Read their comments below:
"It's still pre-orders time, they have lots of international fans, they can sell even more."
"Wow they're only rookies but they're already making people wary of them."
"I hope rookie boy groups start succeeding now."
"As expected survival's boost is daebak."
"People were worrying they wouldn't sell but they're doing so good fighting."
"Wow daebak. I find ZB1 so likable but their show itself didn't succeed that much so I didn't expect them to have that much buzz factor. Congrats! Let's succeed even more."
"Oh, seeing how many haters they were having, this was expected."
With ZEROBASEONE ultimately hitting the one million mark, the pre-debut group has set the highest record of stock pre-orders by a K-pop debut album.
Furthermore, a stock pre-order number can be determined through the prior purchase of an album, which can mostly derive from devoted fans. The results are concluded through estimating on how many purchases there are of an album.

ZEROBASEONE is a nine-membered group composed of Kim Gyuvin, Kim Jiwoong, Zhang Hao, Ricky, Sung Hanbin, Han Yujin, Park Gunwook, Kim Taerae, and Seok Matthew. Their group name can also be shortened to ZB1, delivering a precise but memorable name for one of K-pop's most anticipated boy groups.
