Group ZEROBASEONE member Ricky came out of a webtoon.

On the 30th, Ricky challenged himself with the makeup of a male protagonist from a webtoon in ‘IsaBae Makeup’ uploaded on YouTube channel RISABAE.

On this day, Ricky couldn‘t hide his excitement, saying, “I’m interested in makeup. I‘ve always wanted to get it done”. To match Ricky’s desired style, Isabae started with the makeup of a dark yet sexy male protagonist from a mystery webtoon. Before the full makeup, Ricky looked at himself with his eyebrows trimmed and joked, “I think I‘ll be able to impress my mother-in-law”.”

As the makeup gradually progressed, including adding painterly shading, Ricky’s gorgeous visuals shone through. Here, Isabae repeatedly exclaimed, “The real thing feels more like a cartoon,” while Ricky added to his charm with the unexpected charm of recharging his sugar levels with strawberry drinks here and there.

He also didn‘t forget to talk about the pre-released track ‘Doctor! Doctor!’ from his fifth mini album released on the 20th. Ricky said, “The song is really good. It’s an R&B ballad genre, and the cover image is a work by the famous Junji Ito. I‘ve always enjoyed deadly yet mysterious drawing techniques, so I was honored to participate in the cover image as well.”

Lastly, Ricky said, “I got to do makeup with a concept that I think Zeros (fandom name) would like, which I don’t usually do, so I think it was really good to appear on the show,” expressing his love for his fans.

Ricky‘s group ZEROBASEONE will release their fifth mini album on February 24 and begin full-scale domestic comeback promotions. With just their pre-released song ‘Doctor! Doctor!’, they swept not only the top of domestic music charts but also the most popular music charts on China’s largest music streaming service platform QQ Music and YouTube, sending up a signal of a successful comeback.
