YG Entertainment’s Recent Management Of BABYMONSTER Sparks Criticism
Netizens are criticizing YG Entertainment for the recent management of BABYMONSTER.
BABYMONSTER recently made a comeback and has gained a lot of attention for their new song “DRIP,” ending the year in style after a huge re-debut in 2024.
Yet, as the end of the year approaches, netizens have sparked concerns and anger towards YG Entertainment over the lack of appearances by the group at award shows. Recently, the lineup for the 2024 MAMAs was released.

The group also hasn’t been announced yet for other awards shows that have shared their lineup, including the Melon Music Awards.
Netizens noticed that BABYMONSTER hadn’t been announced for a single award show since their re-debut this year and shared their shock and anger at YG Entertainment’s management of the members.
While there are still many awards shows left, and some hope BABYMONSTER will be announced, fans acknowledged that the first rookie year is when groups need to be appearing at events, especially those popular with fans across the world.
