The band had its debut in an event titled “Wanna One Premier Show-Co” in August 2017. It followed up with the release of the 1x1=1 (To Be One) album featuring the hit song Energetic in the same month. Later in November 2017, it repackaged the album with the title 1-1=0 (Nothing Without You) featuring the track Beautiful.
Total sales of the debut album including the repackaged version positioned Wanna One as the first K-Pop group to sell 1 million copies of its debut album.

The album was released on March 19 featuring the hit song Boomerang.
