Members of the group ZEROBASEONE, Zhang Hao and Kim Tae Rae, delivered a live performance that was a treat for the ears.
On the 30th, Zhang Hao and Kim Tae Rae appeared on the web entertainment show 'Uju Record' on the YouTube channel M2, engaging in games and sharing various stories.
On that day, Kim Tae Rae mentioned, "It seems to fit well with us and our fans right now, and since it's a song by respected seniors, we prepared it," selecting SG Wannabe's 'I Will Write Our Story' as the first song to perform. Kim Tae Rae infused each lyric with sincerity through his uniquely emotional voice, expressing that he sang while thinking of the fans and members, which moved many to tears.
Following that, Zhang Hao chose Lee Hi's 'ONLY'. He introduced this song as one he encountered when he first came to Korea, a song he listened to when he missed his mother while living away from home. Zhang Hao left a deep impression on listeners with his refreshing yet warm tone.
Additionally, the two performed a duet. Zhang Hao and Kim Tae Rae harmonized on Lee Jeok's 'Lie Lie Lie', showcasing their 'Hae Tae chemistry' and creating a sweet musical synergy. The host, Yoon Ha, praised them, saying, "Listening to you two sing gives the feeling that you really love music. The determination and emotion in how you sing resonate."
Zhang Hao and Kim Tae Rae also presented a unique charm by performing a two-person arrangement of ZEROBASEONE's track 'SLAM DUNK', which was pre-released on the 23rd. Furthermore, the two members hinted about their first full album, saying, "It feels great that the things we can do have expanded. We included genres we wanted to try, and we worked hard in meetings to make the songs better," raising expectations.
Finally, in response to the question, "A message you want to share with a stranger in the universe," Zhang Hao said, "Like the stars in the universe, I was discovered thanks to the fans, so I will work hard to make my voice heard better across the world and the universe." Kim Tae Rae added, "Since there are aliens called ZEROBASEONE, I hope our songs are listened to on other planets as well," capturing both laughter and emotion.
Meanwhile, ZEROBASEONE, which includes Zhang Hao and Kim Tae Rae, will make a comeback with their first full album 'NEVER SAY NEVER' on September 1. As they anticipate the most shining highlight of their musical journey built with their fandom, ZEROSE, attention is focused on ZEROBASEONE's achievements, which include '5 consecutive million sellers', making history in K-pop.
