Wanna One's "visuals that defy time" are once again sparking widespread discussion.
Global K-POP content platform Mnet Plus revealed photos comparing Wanna One members' debut days in 2017 with their current status in 2026 via its official SNS channels on the 15th and 16th. Released ahead of the launch of Mnet Plus' original reality show "WANNA ONE GO : Back to Base," which will premiere on the 28th, this content has immediately sparked intense discussion among global fandoms upon its release.

The photos released this time have drawn attention as a "visual decalcomanie," perfectly recreating the poses and compositions from their debut album group shot to individual selfies from nine years ago. Members Hwang Min-hyun, Kim Jae-hwan, Ong Seong-wu, Park Woo-jin, Park Ji-hoon, Bae Jin-young, Ha Sung-woon, Lee Dae-hwi, and Yoon Ji-sung showcased their unchanged visuals and atmosphere despite the long passage of nine years, making their presence felt. The fresh appearance at the time of their debut and their more mature look today evoke memories of Wanna One's beginning and their future, further stimulating fans' emotions.
This comparison shot is more than a simple look back; it serves as a symbolic image that intuitively captures the moment when Wanna One reunited as "us" for the first time in seven years. The narrative connecting Wanna One's past and present flows naturally, further heightening anticipation for Mnet Plus' original reality show "Wanna One Go: Back to Base."
'Wanna One Go: Back to Base' will be first released at 6 p.m. on the 28th via Mnet Plus, and will air on Mnet at 8 p.m.
