BABYMONSTER kicked off their comeback week with a major achievement, taking home their first-ever live music show win.

 

On October 16, during Mnet’s “M Countdown,” the group claimed first place for the third week of October with their mini 2nd album’s title track “WE GO UP.” The win came as the group dominated across multiple categories, digital, physical, fan votes, and SNS engagement, showcasing the intense global support they’ve received.

 

Taking the stage, BABYMONSTER exuded unmatched charisma from the very first beat, instantly captivating the audience. Their powerful synchronized choreography, highlighted by hand-driven gestures and a striking sky-pointing move, delivered a visually explosive performance that left a lasting impact.

 

The members’ sharp rap lines and refined vocals were undeniable standouts. In particular, AHYEON’s soaring high notes over the stormy beat drew chills, while her flawless execution of complex whistle tones had the crowd in awe.

 

Although the group previously took home trophies during their 2024 “SHEESH” promotions, this marks their first live broadcast win. In their acceptance speech, BABYMONSTER expressed heartfelt gratitude, saying,

 

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

 

Their encore stage further proved their skill, with live vocals rivaling the main performance, earning thunderous cheers from fans.

 

Riding this momentum, BABYMONSTER is gearing up to accelerate their promotion streak. Following “M Countdown,” the group will appear on MBC’s “Show! Music Core” (Oct 18) and other major music programs. Beyond broadcast stages, they also plan to engage fans across YouTube, radio, and various global platforms, expanding their connection with audiences worldwide.
