ZEROBASEONE (Sung Hanbin, Kim Jiwoong, Zhang Hao, Seok Matthew, Kim Taerae, Ricky, Kim Gyuvin, Park Gunwook, and Han Yujin) has just made K-pop history by teaming up with world-famous Japanese horror manga artist Junji Ito.
At midnight on January 17, the group surprised fans by dropping the digital cover for their upcoming mini album’s pre-release track, "Doctor! Doctor!" on their official social media.
The cover, designed by Junji Ito himself, has already taken the internet by storm. Known for his chilling and unique style, Junji Ito created artwork that perfectly captures the intense emotions of being addicted to love. The cover shows a boy clutching his heart while a mysterious doctor looks on, creating an eerie yet mesmerizing vibe.
This collaboration is groundbreaking, as it marks the first time Junji Ito has ever worked with a K-pop group. Fans are thrilled to see ZEROBASEONE, one of the hottest global K-pop acts, joining forces with a legend in the manga world. The combination of Junji Ito’s dark artistic touch and ZEROBASEONE’s fresh energy is creating major buzz for "Doctor! Doctor!"
The group has been building excitement with contrasting teasers. Their concept photos show a sweet and playful side of being in love, while the digital cover dives into the darker, obsessive side of love. This duality has fans even more intrigued about the new track.
"Doctor! Doctor!" is all about comparing love to a fever, with lyrics that express a desperate, burning longing. The song features an easy-listening style that’s catchy and full of energy, perfectly matched with ZEROBASEONE’s vibrant visuals and charm.
Fans won’t have to wait long to hear it—the pre-release single "Doctor! Doctor!" drops on January 20. And that’s just the beginning! ZEROBASEONE will make their full comeback on February 24 with their fifth mini album.
