[ℹ️] CLARIFICATION Part 1: Clarification of our original statement To clarify our original statement, our priority as a streaming fanbase is for ZB1, but we always had the intention of supporting AND2BLE's releases in the same way we have supported OSTs from the members. Unfortunately due to the release dates decided by both companies, there is only a 1-week gap between the two groups' album releases. Although the tracking week where ZB1 has the best chance for music shows has ended, ZB1 will still be eligible for music shows for this week's tracking, and it is also still our first *full* week of global Billboard tracking. To honor our original commitment of prioritizing ZB1, we will be postponing our original plans of streaming AND2BLE's debut album by 1 week. However, we do plan on having a streaming party equivalent to our past OST streaming parties for AND2BLE's album next week, and afterward we will play the songs on our Stationhead as fillers similar to how we currently play OSTs. With the exception of the postponement due to the close dates, this is all consistent with our original statement. Part 2: Navigating streaming Everyone is going to want to support both groups at different levels, whether that is heavier towards ZB1, heavier towards AND2BLE, or equally towards both. This may also vary by time, such as focusing on AND2BLE this week and then splitting your time equally afterward. There are many options for you to support both groups depending on where on this spectrum you personally are, such as switching between our station (ZB1-focused) and and2blestream (A2B-focused) or creating your own playlists that split between the groups exactly how you wish. We want to emphasize that this is new territory and a challenging landscape to navigate for us as well, so we humbly ask for your respect and understanding.

From MK Sports Interview Although ZEROBASEONE has been reorganized from a nine-member group into five members, the story of ZEROBASEONE continues. Even after their originally planned contract period came to an end, they chose not to part ways and instead continue on as ZEROBASEONE. The reason was simpler than expected: they simply enjoyed being together. “We never once thought about going our separate ways. We wanted to stay together for as long as possible.” — ZEROBASEONE 🐹🦋🦊🐥🧸
