BABYMONSTER베이비몬스터

BABYMONSTER (베이비몬스터), also called Baemon (베이몬), is a South Korean girl group formed by YG Entertainment. Its seven members are Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Rami, Rora and Chiquita: three from South Korea (Ahyeon, Rami, Rora), two from Japan (Ruka, Asa) and two from Thailand (Pharita, Chiquita). YG's founder Yang Hyun-suk planned a five-member group at first, and the seven-member line-up was settled through the 2023 reality show Last Evaluation.¹

The group debuted as a full ensemble on April 1, 2024 with the EP Babymons7er, whose single "Sheesh" became its first top-ten entry on the Circle Digital Chart. Its first studio album, Drip (November 2024), sold over one million copies in South Korea and was its first entry on the Billboard 200. In 2025 it released the EP We Go Up and began the Hello Monsters World Tour.¹ DabPop's timeline of YG's groups, by the year on YG's own history page, ends with its 2024 debut.³

The tour matters to YG's finances: the company's fiscal 2025 concert revenue rose 644% to ₩126.4 billion, which it credited to world tours by BABYMONSTER, TREASURE and BLACKPINK.² On Spotify, kworb's snapshot of November 10, 2026 had BABYMONSTER at 8,023,850 monthly listeners, 17th among the 25 K-pop acts in its top 2,500.⁴
