The group BABYMONSTER has reached the 10 million-subscriber milestone on YouTube. It is the fastest-ever record for a K-pop girl group.
According to YG Entertainment on the 9th, BABYMONSTER's official YouTube channel surpassed 10 million subscribers at around 1:16 p.m. that day. It took about 1 year and 5 months since their official debut on Apr. 1, 2024, making it the fastest among K-pop girl groups to reach that figure based on debut date.
With this, BABYMONSTER now has the third-most subscribers among K-pop girl groups. As a rookie girl group just entering their second year since debut, this is a very unusual achievement. It suggests the group's influence on YouTube, the center of the global music market, and the speed of expansion of their global fandom are notable.
Even though they are not promoting a separate album at the moment, steady buzz has attracted new subscribers. In addition, BABYMONSTER's first reality content, "BEMON HOUSE," released on the 5th, acted as a catalyst, and the trend has been rising even more steeply, so their popularity is expected to accelerate.
Not only subscribers but also views are cementing their presence as the "next-generation YouTube queen." They have produced 11 videos with over 10 million views each, and their cumulative views have easily exceeded 5.4 billion. In addition to music videos, performance videos and behind-the-scenes content routinely garner tens of thousands to millions of views.
BABYMONSTER will release their second mini album on Oct. 10. The album will include four songs in total, starting with the title track "WE GO UP," followed by "PSYCHO," "SUPA DUPA LUV," and "WILD." "WE GO UP" is a hip-hop–based, intense track that expresses BABYMONSTER's determination to soar higher, and it is expected to receive a strong response from fans.
