Biography

Group Name

The group name is a combination of 'BABY', which means "a child with infinite potential," and 'MONSTER', which means "having monster-like skills," and means 'kids with infinite potential and monster-like skills.' Because the group name is a bit long at 6 letters, it is often called the abbreviation BAEMON, and BAEMON is also used on the official YouTube channel. In Japan, "Babymonster" is customarily abbreviated as "Babymon". In China, it is nicknamed 宝怪(Bao Guai) by combining the words "宝(Bao)" from "宝宝(Baobao)" meaning baby and "怪(Guai)" from "Guaiwu" meaning monster.

Concept

They are still in the stage of determining the direction of the group, and considering the comments of general producer Yang Hyun-seok, there is a high possibility that they will inherit the hip-hop-based strong girl crush concept of the senior girl groups at YG Entertainment that debuted so far. Looking at their track record since their debut, it is evaluated that only the members have been replaced in the typical girl group music pursued by YG Entertainment, such as 〈 BATTER UP 〉 and 〈 SHEESH 〉. Accordingly, while satisfying the demands of existing fans without much differentiation in terms of music, we can expect differentiation in areas other than music. As mentioned above, it faithfully follows the lines of 2NE1 and BLACKPINK in that it focuses on EDM and hip-hop-based dance music, but what differentiates it is the high-pitched sound in the title song.
