The album includes nine tracks, starting with “CLIK CLAK,” a unique hip-hop song featuring all seven members rapping. The title track “DRIP” promises to be a dance anthem for everyone. A special highlight is that G-Dragon contributed to the song’s composition, making it even more exciting!

Other tracks include “Love, Maybe,” which showcases beautiful vocals, “Really Like You” with a fun 90s hip-hop vibe, and “BILLIONAIRE” with a heavy Y2K sound. Each song has its own charm, and fans can expect a variety of styles.

Yang also revealed that DRIP will have at least three music videos, showing his strong support and confidence in BABYMONSTER's debut album.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
