Timeless World, Endless Memories: ZEROBASEONE in Manila

On October 12, 2024, Manila became the heart of ZEROBASEONE’s TIMELESS tour.

Fans filled every corner of the SM Mall of Asia Arena, but the excitement in the air was different. Manila was the most recent stop on the 2024 ZEROBASEONE THE FIRST TOUR [TIMELESS WORLD], and what unfolded was nothing short of spectacular. This night wasn’t just about music. It was about the connection between ZB1 and PH ZEROSE, one that felt as if time paused, just for them.

The show opened with a captivating VCR that drew everyone into ZEROBASEONE’s world. Moments later, the group exploded onto the stage with Solar POWER, Road Movie, Take My Hand, New Kidz on the Block, and KILL THE ROMEO. Right from the start, it was clear that this wasn’t going to be just another night. ZB1’s energy was off the charts, and the crowd matched them at every beat.

The first talk of the night gave a glimpse into the members’ excitement. Ricky, making up for missing the Asia Artist Awards last year, shared how thrilled he was to finally see PH ZEROSE. Yujin couldn’t help but talk about his excitement for local dishes like adobo, while Taerae had Jollibee’s burger on his mind. A playful teaser from Jiwoong and Taerae sent the crowd into a frenzy before they launched into CRUSH.

One of the evening’s highlights was an interactive VCR where Zhanghao was shown to have “shrunk” in size and the boys of ZEROBASEONE are finding ways to make him return to his original size. Fans were drawn into the fun as they helped bring Hao back to normal size, cheering on the screen. It was a lighthearted break before the next wave of performances hit.

As the boys shifted to their bubblegum pop set, performing In Bloom, Insomnia, and Good Night in casual outfits, the atmosphere softened but never lost its magic. The intimacy between ZEROBASEONE and their ZEROSE was palpable, especially when the members split into sub-units. Zhang Hao, Jiwoong, Matthew, Ricky, and Gunwook showcased both their charm and charisma with Always and Over Me, while Hanbin, Taerae, Gyuvin, and Yujin lifted the mood with the bright and upbeat Switch. As the group came together for En Garde, the stage felt like an arena of memories in the making.

The concert’s lighter moments came during their second talk, where the youngest, Yujin, and Gunwook’s aegyo antics delighted the crowd. Even the eldest, Jiwoong, wasn’t spared from the playful pressure to showcase his cute side. Fans, of course, reveled in every second of it.

As the night progressed, the boys threw it back to their Boys Planet roots with Say My Name and Here I Am, before diving into darker, more intense performances like Dear ECLIPSE and Hot Summer. The energy only heightened as the group rolled through SWEAT, Kidz Zone, Feel the POP, and a charged encore of GOOD SO BAD—thanks to the endless chants from PH ZEROSE for “one more time!”, looping the song as if it has no end.

But what truly made this night unforgettable was the moment PH ZEROSE took the spotlight. With the arena glowing in white and blue, fans waved their banners and sang along to Our Season. It was a visual and emotional display of the deep connection between the group and their fans, a moment that felt as timeless as the tour’s name suggests.

As the night drew to a close, the boys returned to the stage for their final songs, decked out in their TIMELESS WORLD merch. With tracks like YURA YURA, And I, and Sunday RIDE, the concert hit its final notes, but the emotions lingered, especially during their last song, HELLO, where Gyuvin was seen with teary eyes, saying that he will never forget the cheers they all received during the concert, making Manila stop a core memory for him.
