ZEROBASEONE is back with new music in the special single album ‘RE-FLOW’, a release that may mark the end of a truly unforgettable era as OT9. While it’s still uncertain whether the jebes will continue together or move on to new projects, one thing is undeniable: ZEROBASEONE has built one of the most heartfelt and consistent discographies in recent K-pop memory.
And yes — this review comes from a proud Zerose. 💙
Let’s dive into this emotional release.
RE-FLOW
The album opens with ‘Running to Future’, and from the very first notes, ZEROBASEONE’s powerful vocals take center stage. Built on soft pop-rock instrumentals, the song is drenched in nostalgia and emotion. The delicate ad-libs, melodic rap sections, and layered backing vocals elevate the track into something deeply touching, one that had us tearing up almost immediately.
The emotional tone continues with ‘ROSES’, though this time with a brighter, more cheerful rhythm. The playful undertones balance the sentiment beautifully, while the harmonies, steady build-up, and stunning falsettos shine throughout the track.
Closing the album is the title track ‘LOVEPOCALYPSE’. While still rooted in emotion, this song leans more upbeat, highlighting the group’s incredible vocal chemistry and musical growth. It feels like both a celebration and a farewell, the kind of song that hits harder with every listen.
The accompanying music video, featuring footage from their tour, only deepens the emotional impact.
‘RE-FLOW’ feels like a love letter to ZEROBASEONE’s journey, a gentle yet powerful reflection on everything the group has shared with fans. If this truly marks the closing chapter of their OT9 era, then it’s one defined by warmth, sincerity, and unforgettable music.
The past couple of years weren’t just ICONIK, they were a listening paradise for Zeroses everywhere.
