K-pop enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating YG Entertainment's new girl group, Baby Monster,
which brings together beautiful and talented members as their name suggests.
Fans are excited to learn more about the seven girls, and this video will provide profiles
of all the members.
Stay tuned until the end to meet these upcoming idols.
Let's begin with Ruka, the member who recently took social media by storm when she was introduced
to the public.
Ruka, a 20-year-old Japanese girl, is one of the first female Japanese idols to debut
under YG Entertainment, alongside her fellow member Asa.
Her stunning visual immediately captivated many netizens when the agency unveiled her.
Ruka has been praised for her sweet, innocent yet chic aura and unique facial features,
such as her big slanted eyes and graceful lips.
Some have even remarked that Ruka's beauty is reminiscent of NewJeans' Minji, as the
two female idols share the same face ratio and numerous similar facial features.
Pre-debut photos of Ruka circulating on social media show her standing out with her flawless
beauty and natural, bright vibe, even without makeup.
Ruka has captured the hearts of netizens not only with her stunning visuals but also with
her impressive rapping and dancing skills.
As a former member of the Japanese girl group Shibu3 Project, Ruka has gained valuable experience.
Videos of her performances on YouTube show that rapping and dancing are her strengths.
She is able to rap live with ease and even composed a rap part for Justin Bieber's song
"Peaches".
Her dancing skills are also impressive, as she performs with precision, power, and a
hip-hop flair, earning praise from former YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun Suk and producer
BIGTONE.
With such talent, she is expected to take on the main dancer and main rapper roles in
the group.
Ruka is not the only Japanese idol who debuted with Baby Monster - her close friend Asa also
had the opportunity.
Asa has captured the attention of netizens with her beautiful, pure, and harmonious facial
features, including heart-shaped lips, a V-line chin, and sparkling deep eyes that make people
swoon at first glance.
Her pre-debut photos have not disappointed her fans, as her pretty features remain unchanged
as she grows older.
Despite her sweet appearance, many netizens were surprised to discover that Asa has a
strong rap style.
At just 16 years old, she has a gift for rapping and dancing.
When she performed "Look Alive" by BlocBoy JB and Drake, Asa received praise for her
unique rap vocals, impressive flow, and spot-on English pronunciation, as if she were an experienced
rapper.
In her introduction video, Asa also surprised others with a rap line she wrote herself,
earning her the position of main rapper.
What makes Asa unforgettable to netizens is her electric stage presence.
Even though she has not yet officially debuted, Asa sets the stage on fire with her cool facial
expressions and attractive charisma.
Netizens are also curious about her vocal abilities, as there is some information suggesting
that she used to study musical theater.
With all this potential, some netizens even claim that Asa could be the next Jennie.
Let's turn our attention to another member of the group, Pharita, who hails from Thailand.
She is one of three Thai idols in YG Entertainment, alongside Lisa and her groupmate, Chiquita.
Videos released by her agency showcase her well-proportioned figure and long legs, along
with her striking visual appearance that resembles that of a model.
In fact, before joining YG Entertainment two and a half years ago, she was a rising model
in her homeland, which explains why she is so photogenic, as stated by the former CEO
who even likened her to a character straight out of a Disney movie.
Netizens have also praised her dancing skills, as Pharita displays impressive body control
to execute powerful and seamless dance moves while exuding a strong aura that captivates
onlookers.
Although her talent has not been fully showcased yet, YG Entertainment has revealed her live
cover of the song "What Other People Say" by Sam Fischer and Demi Lovato.
The rookie idol received high praise for her distinct vocal color that can be easily recognized,
with netizens mesmerized by her clear, dreamy, and emotive tone, conveying subtle yet impactful
emotions in every word.
Pharita's singing ability was further highlighted as she handled both the deep bass notes and
high notes of the song with ease, causing netizens to eagerly anticipate her debut as
the main vocalist of the group.
The first member to be announced through a live performance clip on YG's official YouTube
account was Shin Hyerin, also known as Haram, a 15-year-old South Korean member.
Although not much personal information about Haram was made public, it is believed that
she studies at Jangan Middle School and Hanlim Arts High School.
Haram began her training at YG in 2017.
On January 12, YG unveiled a black-and-white video of Haram singing Mario's "Let Me Love
You".
In the video, Haram's vocal prowess truly shines as she soulfully sings along with the
piano tunes.
As the performance continues, Haram also tugs at people's heartstrings.
Despite the emotional expressions and challenging tempo of the song, Haram flawlessly displays
her remarkable live singing skills, hitting all the notes perfectly.
Her wide vocal range is especially notable, and the agency claims that Haram shows "the
essence of a YG vocalist" through her live performance.
Upon the release of the video, fans described her voice as a mix of Blackpink's Rose and
Jisoo.
In addition to her vocals, Haram is also lauded for her visuals.
Her innocent beauty has led some to claim that she reminds them of actress Go Yoon Jung.
Both possess big doe eyes, white skin, and especially plump lips, exuding a youthful
and pure vibe.
One of the most highly anticipated members of the septet is Ahyeon, who was the second
to be revealed.
Ahyeon is a 15-year-old Korean attending Daeryong Middle School and is set to attend Hanlim
Arts High School in 2023.
She is said to be a polyglot, fluent in Korean, English, and Chinese, which could potentially
make her a valuable asset in Baby Monster's future international ventures.
As soon as her introduction was made public, her visuals gained particular interest from
the public, thanks to her leaked graduation photos.
The pictures show Ahyeon bearing a striking resemblance to Jennie (BLACKPINK) and Yunjin
(LE SSERAFIM), and she exudes a cute yet chic vibe with stunning facial features, including
big round eyes, a high nose, and pursed lips.
Ahyeon's bright and perfect skin makes her look flawless even without makeup, making
these some of the most beautiful pre-debut pictures of any Korean idol.
Netizens were not only captivated by Ahyeon's beauty and charisma, but also by her impressive
range of skills.
In a new video, the soon-to-debut idol sang Saweetie and GALXARA's "Sway With Me," displaying
confident energy over fast-tempo dubstep music.
Ahyeon also demonstrated her powerful rapping and exceptional singing skills, earning praise
for hitting the song's high notes with ease and flaunting fluent and clear English rap.
Furthermore, while singing, Ahyeon also performed some choreography without losing her breath,
astonishing K-pop fans that such a relaxed and stylish performance came from a rookie
who is only 15 years old.
Her powerful vocals match her bold gestures and rapping, proving that she is indeed an
"all-rounder."
According to reports, Ahyeon previously trained under JYP in 2017 before switching to YG in
2019.
Given that Yang Hyunsuk calls Ahyeon a "warrior with many weapons," it is no surprise that
online users are already predicting that she will be the ace of the group.
Chiquita, the youngest member of Baby Monster, hails from Thailand and was recently unveiled
as the third member of the group through her live solo performance on YouTube by YG Entertainment.
Born in February 2009, she is also among the few female Thailand idols to have debuted
in YG Entertainment.
Canny, as she is nicknamed, is the sister of Copper Dechawat from The Star Idol and
789 TRAINEE and was formerly part of the cover group RedRose.
Fans were amazed that Chiquita joined the Baby Monster Project just three months after
becoming a YG trainee, a testament to her outstanding talent and bold passion.
Her deep and soulful voice expresses the subtle emotions felt after a painful heartbreak,
and despite her young age, she masters different vocal registers and techniques effortlessly
onstage.
With her bright hair color, big smile, and bubbly personality, Chiquita bears a striking
resemblance to Lisa (BLACKPINK), and many expect her to become as popular as her senior.
Finally, we have Lee Da In, also known as Rora, who is the youngest member of BABYMONSTER
from South Korea.
Born in 2008, Rora is an experienced K-pop artist who was previously a member of U.SSO
Girl, using the stage name U.ha, alongside Hyein from NewJeans.
Additionally, she appeared on the Korean cooking show Man vs Child Korea in 2018.
Despite not having drop-dead beauty, Rora made an indelible impression with her lovely
visuals.
She is a determined individual who spends two hours on a bus every day after school
to get to YG.
Rora possesses a standard Korean beauty with a V-line face, high straight nose, doe eyes,
and pure white skin, which is believed to make her appearance shine later.
In her performance video of Kiana Lede’s “Forfeit (feat.
Lucky Daye),” Rora showcases her low-toned, mature voice, which deeply touches the listener's
heart.
The slow beat of the melody emphasizes the eloquence of her voice as she smoothly grooves
through the song.
YG Entertainment's executive producer, Yang Hyun Suk, praised Rora for her singing skills,
saying that she conveys the emotions of a song as though she had experienced it personally.
In addition, Rora was recognized as the 'fastest growing member' in the dance category she
learned for the first time since becoming a YG trainee.
With such skills, she is expected to become a formidable opponent for the all-rounder
position in BABYMONSTER.
