YG‘s new girl group Baby Monster has confirmed their first world tour since debut.

On the 18th, YG Entertainment posted ‘2025 Baby Monster 1st World Tour - Hello Monster - Announcement’ (BABYMONSTER 1st WORLD TOUR ＜HELLO MONSTERS＞ ANNOUNCEMENT) on their official blog.

According to this, Baby Monster will kick off their world tour in Seoul in January next year before heading to New Jersey, USA in February and Los Angeles in March. They are attracting attention for going from releasing their first full-length album to holding a world tour at an unprecedented speed in less than a year since their official debut.

Baby Monster will meet local fans in North America for the first time through this world tour. As they have taken their first steps into the United States, one of the world’s two largest music markets, and have expanded their global base, their popularity is expected to grow even more.

In addition, the poster that was revealed that day features the phrase “AND MORE” in addition to Seoul and North America, stimulating curiosity about additional regions that will be revealed in the future.

YG said, “As this is their first world tour since their debut, both the artists and staff are giving it their all to show the best performance possible,” and added, “In addition to the announced schedule, we plan to meet as many fans as possible, so you can look forward to it.”

Meanwhile, Baby Monster‘s first full-length album, “DRIP,” released on the 1st, is standing out on various global charts. This album successfully entered the US Billboard main chart, ‘Billboard 200’, at 149th place, and the title song ‘Drip’ broke their own highest ranking by entering the Billboard Global (Billboard Global Excl. US) and Billboard Global 200 at 16th and 30th place, respectively.
