ZEROBASEONE (ZB1) is strengthening its presence in Japan with the release of a special Japanese EP and the rollout of exclusive travel packages linked to its ongoing world tour.
The group will drop the physical version of their Japanese special EP, “ICONIK,” on October 29 at midnight. The release features three Japanese versions of fan favorites: ICONIK, SLAM DUNK, and BLUE, the title track from their fifth mini-album BLUE PARADISE.
The song ICONIK carries the same title as the lead track from ZEROBASEONE’s first Korean full-length album, NEVER SAY NEVER. The group said the message behind the song is clear: “We can become iconic beings on our own, regardless of others’ evaluations.”
The physical album will be released in one standard edition and nine solo editions. Each includes a 12-page lyric booklet and a random limited-edition photocard. The standard edition comes with a message card, while the solo versions feature a square card and a secret sticker set—items likely to draw fans’ attention.
Meanwhile, Nol InterparkTour, under Nol Universe, announced on the 18th that it’s exclusively launching official travel packages for the group’s world tour. The initiative connects directly with concert dates in Saitama (October 29–30) and Hong Kong (December 20–21).
The company confirmed that its Taipei package sold out immediately upon release on the 16th. Each tour package includes concert tickets, hotel accommodation, transportation between venues, and even access to the soundcheck event before the main performance. Fans will stay three nights and four days, with free time to explore the city after concerts.
A Nol Universe spokesperson explained, “Nol InterparkTour aims to present a new experiential model that combines travel and leisure, going beyond simple concert attendance. We plan to continue expanding the boundaries of travel by leveraging our global partnerships and content network to cover various genres and regions.”
