Author’s Note: Hello everyone! And in particular, to those who identify in the ZEROBASEONE (ZB1) fandom, Zeroses. I came to make this poem because someone I know is a huge Zeroses. Knowing that ZB1 is disbanding/reorganizing this year is hurting them and all the Zeroses out there. I myself do not know much about ZB1, but I am familiar with the feelings that come with the conclusion of temporary kpop idol groups. I was a fan of the group Wanna One and other groups that disbanded as well. It is never easy. So many emotions are flooding through us. Thinking of the good and happy times, and then thinking of the impending heartache over the horizon.
Still, I hope this poem can bring comfort to Zeroses, knowing that what they experienced with ZB1 will forever be special and shining. And I hope that those memories you have of ZB1 will continue to be pure and be even purer when they reconvene together in the future. Whether that is a full-on concert, a fancon, or the release of an album/song. I am late to discovering this group, but as I slowly listen to their music, I can see how and why they became so popular with their fanbase. This Ahgase🐤 from GOT7💚 is here to support. Fighting!
The title is an anagram of “ZEROBASEONE”. Azeo (from Azeotrope), in chemistry, an azeotrope is a mixture of liquids that maintains its composition and boiling point, meaning the components become inseparable. It signifies that the bond is so pure that it cannot be broken down or changed. “Re”, “Bose”, and “En” are the romaji or Romanized Japanese words. “Re” (the echo/sound) refers to the ‘sound’ or the recurring ‘echo’ of the experience. “Bose” (the soul/guardian) acts as the ‘core’ or ‘base’ of the mixture. “En” (the fate), in this context, it signifies a beginning or a fated connection. By combining these, the title essentially translates to: “A pure and inseparable echo guarded by fate.” It transforms the name of the group into a protective seal for the “shining” memories you want to keep pure.

D1 be the one.
Yesterday was the happiest day,
when tomorrow comes along.
Because we were together,
we became one
Why stay then?
Our season has already passed.
Shouldn’t we run to our new futures?
The rose road tells only our story.
Will our hellos still be like the movies?
Can that moment remain in bloom?
You are my youth.
From the very beginning,
the pureness that took my hand.
I’ll be here.
Where our laughter rang blue
in eternity.
No matter how you may change.
You remember me.
Like I remember you.
I will still smile.
Our song can rest awhile.
That is why I stay.
