The group BABYMONSTER once again delivered a flawless live performance at the year's "Gayo Daejeon," truly stealing the hearts of global K-pop fans.
On the 27th, according to YG Entertainment, the BABYMONSTER "2025 SBS Gayo Daejeon" stage video posted on SBS's official YouTube channel surpassed 1.94 million views as of 8 a.m. that day. It exceeded 1 million views within half a day of release, ranking first among performers' stages and continuing a steep upward trend.
The stage BABYMONSTER presented that day included the mini album 2 title track "WE GO UP" and the album track "PSYCHO." Among them, "PSYCHO" drew early attention because it was being performed on broadcast for the first time that day. The members flawlessly delivered the two songs with contrasting atmospheres through solid handheld microphone live vocals, prompting cheers.
In particular, members Asa and Rora left a deep impression on fans' minds. Asa performed a daring stunt in the killing part by tossing the microphone into the air, catching it while delivering rapid rap, and Rora, like an actor in a horror film, elevated the song's mood with a chilling laugh and expressions fitting the song "PSYCHO." These moments have been reborn as fan-made second creations, including short-form videos, generating explosive buzz.
BABYMONSTER has proven its unique buzz by creating legendary stages whenever it appears on major year-end broadcasts. Last year at "Gayo Daejeon," it topped view counts among performers' videos, surpassing renowned top singers. At this year's Mnet (Mnet) "MAMA," a special stage where they performed "Golden" in the original key live and a main stage featuring the team's representative songs swept YouTube views at numbers 1 and 2.
BABYMONSTER is currently touring with the six-city, 12-show "BABYMONSTER [LOVE MONSTERS] ASIA FAN CONCERT 2025-26." They are scheduled to meet fans in Bangkok on the 27th and 28th and in Taipei on Jan. 2 and 3 next year.
