"Trend" baseball player Kim Do-young has also switched. The year 2025 is already the year of Baby Monster.
Baby Monster held its first world tour "2025 BABYMONSTER 1st WORLD TOUR 'HELLO MONSTERS' in Seoul" on Jan. 26 at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Songpa District, Seoul. It is an extraordinary feat for a group that debuted less than a year ago.
Recently, they successfully moved their stage to Newark and Los Angeles in the U.S. They also demonstrated their overwhelming live skills on major broadcasting networks' flagship programs, including NBC's "The Kelly Clarkson Show," capturing the hearts of local music fans.
However, they are not content. Baby Monster will continue the excitement of their world tour, including stops in Kanagawa, Aichi, Osaka, and Fukuoka in Japan, as well as in Singapore, Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, and Taipei. They are expected to have a particularly hot first half of the year.
The second half will also be busy. They will hold their second "2025 BABYMONSTER 1st WORLD TOUR 'HELLO MONSTERS' in North America" on Aug. 30 in Toronto, Sept. 2 in Rosemont, Sept. 5 in Atlanta, Sept. 7 in Fort Worth, Sept. 10 in Oakland, and Sept. 12 in Seattle.
Such an aggressive approach is possible because Baby Monster excels not only in visuals but also in overwhelming talent. They captivate music fans with their flawless live performances and comfortable stage manners, which make it hard to believe they are rookies. Baby Monster knows how to entertain on stage, as they are confident in their skills.
In fact, the birth of a monstrous rookie was somewhat expected. Laura, Luka, Parita, Asa, Ramy, Chiquita, and Ahyeon, who received explosive attention from domestic and international fans even before their debut, made every effort to follow in the footsteps of YG Entertainment's girl groups, 2NE1 and BLACKPINK. This led to the current world tour stage.
Last year, Kim Do-young, a 'rookie' who made new history in South Korean professional baseball with the Kia Tigers, is a big fan of Hanni from NewJeans. He surprised fans recently by stating in a video released on his team's YouTube channel, "Baby Monster is my favorite."
Trends recognize trends. The year 2025 is undoubtedly the year of Baby Monster. Yang Hyun-suk, the general producer of YG Entertainment, did not misjudge.
