ZEROBASEONE Teases New Track with Basketball-Themed Concept
On July 11, K-pop rookie group ZEROBASEONE (comprising Sung Hanbin, Kim Jiwoong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Taerae, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin, Park Gunwook, and Han Yujin) excited fans by revealing the cover image for their upcoming pre-release single, ‘SLAM DUNK’, via their official social media channels.
The image shows a basketball marked ‘ZB1’ swishing cleanly through a hoop, visually capturing the song’s dynamic and spirited essence. The playful and energetic typography further solidifies the track’s fun and youthful aesthetic.
First Live Performance at Nation’s Basketball Event
On the same day, ZEROBASEONE made a surprise appearance at the ‘2025 Men’s National Basketball Friendly Match’ hosted by Hana Bank at Anyang Jung Kwan Jang Arena. Not only did they cheer from the stands, but they also lit up the halftime show with the first-ever live performance of ‘SLAM DUNK’.
The group’s powerful and refreshing stage presence electrified the arena, earning thunderous applause from the audience — proving once again why they’re one of the most anticipated fourth-generation idol groups.
Riding the Wave of Global Popularity
The new track comes ahead of ZEROBASEONE’s highly awaited 2025 world tour ‘HERE & NOW’, which will span seven regions. With ‘SLAM DUNK’ set to be part of their next album, the release is already generating buzz among international fans who eagerly await new music from the group.
ZEROBASEONE’s ‘SLAM DUNK’ will officially drop on July 23 at 6 p.m. KST through major streaming platforms.
