## Conception and title

The album name, *Zone*, is a combination of the alphabet Z, which refers to Jihyo, and the English word One, meaning 'Jihyo's first' and 'Jihyo's complete one' work.[27] In a Q&A with *[Harpers Bazaar](/source/Harper's_Bazaar)*, Jihyo explained that “the concept for [Zone] is me, showing different sides of me...I particularly chose the order of the tracks because I wanted it to tell a story of emotions, like an emotional journey throughout the day. Each track shows different vocal styles, and yes, it’s very different from Twice, but I wanted to focus on that. While the image that I built through the group really helped me identify who I am, I want to show different sides of me.”[1] When asked about the message of the album Jihyo noted that instead of a certain message she wanted to deliver "diversity [musically](/source/Musicality)" while show herself as someone "who’s able to express different genres and express [herself] in new ways."[1]

## Commercial performance

*Zone* debuted at number one on the [Circle Album Chart](/source/Circle_Album_Chart) with over half million copies sold in the first week.[28] It broke the record for the highest initial sales volume for an extended play released by a K-pop female soloist in Hanteo chart history.[29] In United States, the album debuted at number 14 on [*Billboard* 200](/source/Billboard_200) with 41,000 copies sold,[30] in addition, it chartered on [Top Album Sales](/source/Top_Album_Sales), Top Current Album Sales, Lyric Find Global, and [World Album](/source/World_Albums).[31]
