BABYMONSTER Clinches First-Ever Live Music Show Win… Delivers Powerful Encore Performance

BABYMONSTER kicked off their comeback week with a major milestone, taking home their first live broadcast music show trophy and signaling a strong start to their new era.

On October 16, the group claimed first place on Mnet’s M Countdown with their second mini album’s title track “WE GO UP.” They earned high scores across digital performance, album sales, fan votes, and social media, proving their immense global popularity and the strength of their fanbase.

On stage, BABYMONSTER immediately captured attention with their commanding charisma and flawless live presence. Their signature point choreography, raising their hands toward the sky, and intricate hand gestures created striking visuals, while their tight synchronization with the dancers amplified the performance’s energy.

Vocally, the group delivered a masterclass in live performance. The members’ sharp rap flows and crisp vocals built dynamic tension, culminating in AHYEON’s powerful high notes, which soared above the beat with exhilarating impact. Her flawless whistle register performance drew widespread praise from both fans and industry peers.

Although BABYMONSTER previously won on music shows during their “SHEESH” promotions in 2024, this marks their first-ever live broadcast win. In their acceptance speech, the group expressed heartfelt gratitude, saying,

“This is all thanks to MONSTIEZ (fandom). We’ll repay your love and support with even better performances.”

Their encore stage quickly went viral, members sang live with unwavering pitch and energy, receiving an outpouring of applause from fans for their professionalism and stage dominance. Riding this momentum, BABYMONSTER is set to accelerate their promotions. Following M Countdown, the group will appear on MBC’s Show! Music Core (Oct 18) and other major music programs. They’ll also engage with fans worldwide through YouTube content, radio appearances, and various digital platforms, further strengthening their global connection.
