Prezent is the upcoming first Japanese extended play (EP) and fifth EP overall by South Korean boy group Zerobaseone. It will be released by WakeOne and Lapone Entertainment on January 29, 2025. The EP contains six tracks, including the Japanese versions of the group's 2024 Korean-language singles "Feel the Pop" and "Good So Bad", and the Japanese single "Only One Story", which was previously released by the group as an original soundtrack for Pokémon Horizons: The Series.

Background and release

In March 2024, Zerobaseone made their Japanese debut with the single "Yura Yura (Unmei no Hana)". The single was a commercial success, debuting at number one on the Oricon Singles Chart, becoming the first foreign artist to sell over 300,000 copies in the first week with a debut single. The song went on to be certified 2x Platinum by the RIAJ for sales of over 500,000 copies. The group also held two sold out fan concerts at Yokohama Arena, and will return for five further concerts on the Timeless World tour in late 2024.

Prezent, Zerobaseone's first Japanese-language EP, was announced on November 11. In the announcement, WakeOne confirmed that the EP would contain six tracks, including the lead track "Now or Never", and "Only One Story", which was previously released in October 2024 to serve as the opening song to Pokémon Horizons: The Series. The EP will also include the Japanese-language versions of the group's Korean singles "Good So Bad" and "Feel the Pop".

Cover art for the four different editions were revealed on December 17. The EP will be released in a standard edition, two first press limited editions, and an anime edition with a cover that depicts the band with animated characters.

Prezent will be released on January 29, 2025.
