• BABYMONSTER Starts Filming Music Video for First Full-Length Album—YG Calls It a "Mega Project"

    YG Entertainment's new girl group BABYMONSTER is gearing up to film the music video for their first full-length album!

    On September 23rd, YG Entertainment announced, "We will be producing several music videos for BABYMONSTER's first full-length album, set to release this fall, including the title track." The group will be filming at various locations, showing the strong support for this exciting project.

    This move shows the confidence of YG’s Chief Producer Yang Hyun Suk in BABYMONSTER, the next-generation girl group. YG is determined to promote and highlight many songs from the album, especially the title track.

    YG stated, "The recording for BABYMONSTER's first album is complete, and we are in the finishing stages. The choreography for several songs that will have music videos has also been completed."

    BABYMONSTER previously confirmed that all seven members would officially debut on April 1 with their first mini-album, "BABYMONS7ER." The music video for their title track "SHEESH" set a record as the fastest debut song by a K-pop girl group to reach 100 million views in just 10 days.

    It’s now close to 296 million views, with 300 million in sight. The choreography video has also gained huge popularity, surpassing 150 million views.

    The group's rising fame comes from their focus on the live performance skills of all seven members rather than just traditional promotion. Although "SHEESH" didn't make a big impact on charts at first, the members' incredible live abilities helped the song climb to the top ranks over time.

    To build excitement for the full-length album, BABYMONSTER pre-released the track "FOREVER" on July 1. They also connected with fans through a global fan meeting, reaching audiences in 12 sessions across seven Asian cities. At the "Summer Sonic 2024" festival, they showcased their amazing talent to music lovers around the world.

    YG commented, "We wanted to share the news of the confirmed album release with our global fans who have supported and waited for BABYMONSTER. We hope this album will connect with fans who have cheered for BABYMONSTER from afar. We are now in the final stages of this new beginning and will soon provide detailed information, including the release date."

  • YouTuber Reveals the Truth on Cha Eun Woo Being Accused of Skipping Kim Sae Ron’s Funeral

    While Garosero Research Institute (Gaseyeon) continues to make shocking claims about Kim Soo Hyun, YouTuber Lee Jin Ho has stepped up to clear Cha Eun Woo’s name.

    On April 3, Lee Jin Ho uploaded a video titled "After Kim Soo Hyun, is Cha Eun Woo next? Fact-checking Gaseyeon’s false claims" on his YouTube channel Entertainment President Lee Jin Ho.

    Lee Jin Ho strongly denied Gaseyeon’s claim that Cha Eun Woo didn’t attend Kim Sae Ron’s funeral, saying, This proves once again that they don’t even check basic facts.”

    He added, “Cha Eun Woo was definitely at the funeral. He was there from the first evening until late at night. Multiple people saw him, greeted him, and even sat with him at the table.”

    The rumor started on March 31, when Kim Se Ui, a member of Gaseyeon, made a cryptic statement during a live broadcast, saying, “Cha Eun Woo, Cha Eun Woo’s manager, you will face divine punishment.” This immediately sparked speculation.

    Cha Eun Woo and Kim Sae Ron were known to be close, especially when she was under Fantagio. They worked together on the web drama To Be Continued and co-hosted Show! Music Core. Fans were surprised when rumors spread that Cha Eun Woo didn’t attend her funeral, but Lee Jin Ho’s statement has now set the record straight.

    Meanwhile, Kim Sae Ron’s family has taken legal action against Lee Jin Ho, filing a defamation lawsuit on March 17 under the Information and Communications Network Act. Ten days later, they also sued him under the anti-stalking law, accusing him of exposing private details about Kim Sae Ron and her family.
