ZEROBASEONE Achieves Back-to-Back Platinum Certifications in Japan

K-pop group ZEROBASEONE strengthens its international footprint with consecutive RIAJ Platinum certifications and strong Japanese chart performances.

ZEROBASEONE has earned two consecutive Platinum certifications in Japan this year, covering its EP PREZENT and the special EP ICONIK, underscoring the group’s strong local impact in the market. PREZENT, released earlier in the year, set a first-week sales record and topped both Oricon’s weekly album ranking and the weekly cumulative album ranking. Notably, the release reached Platinum status from the Recording Industry Association of Japan within just two weeks, and it ranked fourth in Billboard Japan’s 2025 mid-year Top Albums Sales, cementing ZEROBASEONE’s local presence.

This momentum continued with ICONIK, released in October, which achieved top positions across major charts—Oricon’s weekly Album and weekly Combined Album rankings at No. 2, Tower Records’ overall album chart No. 1, and Billboard Japan Top Albums Sales No. 2—helping the albums establish themselves firmly. The group also maintained a seven-day run in the Oricon daily album ranking top 10, contributing to Platinum certification and marking two consecutive Platinum albums for ZEROBASEONE.

The group also continues to expand its global reach through its 2025 World Tour HERE&NOW, which kicked off in Seoul last October and has since visited Bangkok, Saitama, and Kuala Lumpur, with shows planned in Singapore, Taipei, and Hong Kong. ZEROBASEONE’s rising international profile reflects its growing influence in the global K-pop landscape.
