YH Entertainment’s Latest Move Sparks Worry About ZEROBASEONE’s Ricky, Zhang Hao, Gyuvin And Yujin
YH Entertainment’s recent trademark filing has sent shockwaves through fandoms — but not for the reasons you might expect.
After reports surfaced that YH trademarked the name “N:DOUBLE” in both Korean and English, speculation immediately began that the company is preparing to debut a brand-new boy group.

While rookie debuts usually spark excitement, this time the reaction has been mixed — especially among fans of ZEROBASEONE. YH Entertainment is currently home to several ZEROBASEONE members, including Ricky, Zhang Hao, Gyuvin, and Yujin.

Since ZEROBASEONE is a project group formed through a survival show, their contract is limited. Fans are now speculating that the newly trademarked “N:DOUBLE” could potentially be the permanent group that these members join once ZEROBASEONE’s activities conclude.

Fans are still foreign to the idea.

Some are already sad about it.
if the ndouble group is really only planned for zb5 im honestly gonna throw up cuz there’s no way yh already have plans for them when they haven’t even disbanded yet while we’re still here waiting for any updates from yunseo and seungeon, that’s so unfair and im not even sorry

At the last update, it was said that they boys were still taking their time to consider.
While some fans are excited about the possibility of a new long-term group for the members, others fear what it represents: the eventual end of ZEROBASEONE as fans know it.
