I am your first love, Kim Taerae. Already, so much time has passed. All the moments we laughed and cried together have come together to create this full-length album. This great work surely holds the sweat and unseen tears of many people. There were countless times along the way when I wanted to give up, when I wanted to return to being nothing at all. But because there were people waiting for ‘me’ and because there were members and staff who supported me despite my shortcomings, it became possible. Now, through this album, I hope ZEROBASEONE can firmly establish our identity as artists. And I believe we will. Just as we always have. Just like how it took a long time for 9 gems of different colors to shine in almost the same shade, we will always achieve good results. Please be with us in completing this journey.

this is everyone's first love, kim taerae. so much time has passed already. this full album was created from the many times we laughed and cried together. i'm sure behind this big work lies the sweat and unseen tears of many people. there were so many moments when i wanted to give up and go back to being a nobody along the process. but everything was made possible thanks to the people waiting for 'me' and the members and staff who helped me despite my shortcomings i now hope that through this album, zerobaseone can establish a clear identity as artists. and i believe we will, just as we always have. like nine jewels of different colors that took a long time to blend into the same shade, we too will always achieve good results. please be with us as we reach that completion.

(chinese) in the blink of an eye, it's already the 1st full length album, from being an unknown trainee up until now, it seems like time has flown by so fast, yet also feels like a long time has passed. to allow this process to happen & for this result to happen, the one i want to thank the most is you, i am able to do the thing i love right here & shine on stage. without you, this wouldn't have been possible. you importantly gave me confidence & have reminded me everyday that i have so many wonderful things about me & allowed me to be embraced in love on the road to my dreams. i will also use my daily efforts to bring all of these wonderful things to you as well. please look forward to this comeback~ (korean) i want to say i'm really thankful for the release of this 1st full-length album. more than anything, i want to give my biggest thanks to our zeroses, who made us & have continuously supported us since before the start! all of the achievements we've made so far are cannot be separated from our zeroses. i have said i always want to protect zeroses, but actually i think zeroses protect us even more. zeroses have already become an existence that must always be in my life. the only thing that we can do to repay is to keep moving forward. so we did our best this album & we all wanted to put out really good quality & we worked hard to do that. i think the luckiest thing is that i always have the members who are always by my side when working hard. thanks to the members, they have become a huge help whenever it was exhausting since debut up until now. they are really a family-like existence who have given me a lot of advice when i was in a difficult situation.
