YG Baby Monster will finally be holding the ‘2025 BABYMONSTER 1st WORLD TOUR
IN SEOUL’.
Through this concert, Baby Monster will enter KSPO DOME, known as the ‘Mecca of K-pop performances’, even though it hasn‘t even been a year since their official debut. Today (the 25th) and tomorrow (the 26th), they will fully display their overwhelming live performance skills that they have honed so far.
● Confidence on stage [DRIP].. An infinite growth narrative to be written
Baby Monster, who has proven their ‘monster rookie status’ by performing on various music shows, took out the hand mic once again. All stages are performed live with a hand mic, leaving an impression of a level of upgraded capability compared to the last fan meeting tour.
As this is a meeting with fans following the release of their first full-length album [DRIP], the setlist has become even richer. In addition to the double title tracks ‘DRIP’ and ‘CLIK CLAK’, they will present the performances of previously unreleased tracks for the first time. Expectations are even higher as General Producer Yang Hyun-suk previously revealed that he is putting a lot of effort into perfecting the choreography for the tracks on the album for this tour.
● Full of sincerity... various special stages ‘Expectations’
A number of special stages suitable for their first solo concert have been prepared. They will reinterpret the hit songs of YG’s senior girl group 2NE1 with affection and respect, and you can also see solo stages that maximize the charms of each member, including Ahyeon‘s ‘Dangerously’.
YG said, “The members have put in their best effort to show the best concert, from the protruding stage for communication with fans to the overall composition and the selection of songs to be performed on the solo stages,” and expressed confidence, saying, “It will be a concert where you can feel Baby Monster’s limitless growth as well as sincerity toward the fans.”
● Baby Monster‘s musical world realized by ‘performance powerhouse’ YG
In order to add power to Baby Monster’s captivating performances, YG‘s performance team has gathered all the directing know-how they have accumulated so far. With sensational stage design and various special effects, they have maximized Baby Monster’s explosive energy.
They have also captured the essence of the performance, the musical element. They have teamed up with the best session artists early on and rearranged Baby Monster‘s songs into a band live. The dynamic and vivid sound, along with the members’ solid singing ability that breaks through it, will lead the audience into a frenzy.
Meanwhile, Baby Monster is gearing up to attack the global music market in earnest, starting with their first world tour since their debut. Following this Seoul concert, they will continue their heat by heading to North America (Newark, Los Angeles), Japan (Kanagawa, Aichi, Osaka, Fukuoka), and Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei).
