BABYMONSTER 'SHEESH' MV Surpasses 400M Views…Fastest-Ever Record for a K-Pop Girl Group Debut Song

The girl group BABYMONSTER set a record by becoming the fastest-ever K-pop girl group debut-song music video to surpass 400 million views on YouTube with its official debut track 'SHEESH'.

In a report on the 17th by YG Entertainment, 'SHEESH' by BABYMONSTER surpassed 400 million views on YouTube around 3:40 a.m. that day. Achieved about 747 days after its release on April 1, 2024, this marks the fastest pace among K-pop girl group debut-song music videos ever. Right after release, the video climbed to No. 1 on YouTube's 'Most Viewed Video in 24 Hours' list, and at key milestones—including 100 million views (10 days), 200 million views (33 days), and 300 million views (186 days)—it kept resetting the record, proving its unrivaled global impact.

The group's performance on global music charts and the growth of its YouTube channel are also standout. 'SHEESH' has stayed on Billboard's Global Excl. U.S. chart for 18 weeks and the Billboard Global 200 chart for 14 weeks, and it also succeeded in charting for 10 straight weeks on Spotify's Weekly Top Songs Global chart. In addition, BABYMONSTER holds more than 11.6 million subscribers—making it the third-largest among K-pop girl groups—and continues expanding its strong global influence, with the total number of cumulative views on its official channel surpassing 7.9 billion, including 15 videos with over 100 million views.

A Mini-Album Comeback and a World Tour Across Five Continents Ahead—Building on this momentum, BABYMONSTER will release its third mini album 'CHOOM' at 6:00 p.m. on May 4 and kick off full-scale promotions. YG said it plans to showcase an even broader musical spectrum unique to BABYMONSTER through the title track of the same name. Then, starting in June, it will begin its second world tour spanning five continents. Starting with the Seoul show, which sold out every performance, the group will tour across Asia, Oceania, Europe, North America, and South America, including six cities in Japan, and meet global fans along the way.
