Background

In a press conference, ShowBT CEO Robin Geong discussed to inform the media for what's in store for SB19 in 2020. One of the events that was scheduled is the group's debut album release.[4] The music production for SB19's first full album has come to completion and was planned to be released in March 2020. Most of the songs were written before the release of "Go Up", but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they need to find time when to drop it.[5]

The album is an incorporation of all the things that the group has experienced during their trainee days which they put all the emotions that they went through into their music and hoped that they got to inspire people with their story.[6] Lyrically, the album speaks of the creative and personal journey of the group which reflected on the different emotions showed in the tracks—happiness, hopefulness, inspiration, sadness, and sorrow.[7] The members of the group were mainly involved in the process of making the album, writing, composing, and collaborating with their producers in South Korea, through their agency ShowBT. Sejun takes the credit for writing the lyrics of all the tracks in the album except for "Go Up" which was written by all of the members.[8]

We wanted to incorporate all the things that we have experienced during trainee days into this album by putting all the emotions that we went through into our music. It was an emotional rollercoaster, but we pulled through and we hope that we get to inspire people with our story.

— Sejun, Manila Bulletin[9]

On July 19, 2020, SB19 uploaded a poster captioned "Coming" with an invitation envelope illustration.[10] It was then concluded that the post was pertaining to the album release after the band posted the album release schedule.[11] A day after, they held an activity in collaboration with Twitter to communicate with their fans. Teasers were uploaded from July 22, 2020 until Juy 27, 2020 and finally releasing the track list on July 29, 2020.[12] Get in the Zone was release worldwide on July 31, 2020 through Sony Music Philippines, Inc. as a digital album with the band hosting an album release party broadcast on their YouTube channel.[13] On October 9, 2020, they released an animated music video for the title track "Hanggang sa Huli" directed by the member Justin de Dios.[14] The title track was performed mostly on the events they are guests of such as in the Awit Awards 2020 and Wish 1075 digital concert.[15][16] On November 21, 2020, the band held their first ever global online concert hosted by Global Live in which they performed all the tracks in the album with additional new performances.[17][18] On December 7, 2020, the physical copies of the album were released in a CD format to purchase through Lazada or Facebook in conjunction with the official launching of their online store.[19][20]
