[스타뉴스=윤상근 기자] Even before their official debut, YG girl group BABYMONSTER is proving their extraordinary content power.

According to YG Entertainment on the 14th, the accumulated number of views for their teasing content on BABYMONSTER and YG’s official YouTube channel surpassed 200 million views. This comes in 72 days since their launching teaser was revealed on the 1st of January.

This is a meaningful feat considering the group hasn’t made their official debut yet. The group accumulated such views with the live dance/vocal performance and group/individual introduction videos without any official album promotional content or M/V.

When looking at the comments by country on the videos, it’s evident that the popularity is evenly distributed and goes beyond Korea to the world, which is remarkable. Not only has it gone viral in the U.S., the U.K., and Mexico, favorable reviews were also poured out in European countries such as Spain, Portugal, Turkey, and Asia such as Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Singapore.

YG said “We’ve put in a lot of effort into BABYMONSTER in consideration of carrying out activities in the global music market, going beyond Korea. We’ll approach music fans all over the world without any barriers of language.”

Meanwhile, BABYMONSTER is a rookie girl-group released by YG after BLACKPINK after 7 years. Trainees for the group include 3 Korean members (AHYEON, HARAM, RORA), 2 Thai members (PHARITA, CHIQUITA), and 2 Japanese members (RUKA, ASA), and most of them are in their teens. Their debut reality program for the final selection ‘Last Evaluation’ is released every Friday at 12:00 AM Korea time.
