BABYMONSTER: Exclusive photos of Billboard's July 2024 K-Pop Rookies of the Month feat. Ruka, Pharita, Rami, Ahyeon, Rora, Asa and Chiquita.

Find out BABYMONSTER members Ruka, Pharita, Rami, Ahyeon, Rora, Asa and Chiquita's favorite songs, movies, group positions and more. Mentored and critiqued by YG founder and CEO Yang Hyun-suk plus future label mates like Jennie and Lisa of BLACKPINK, Kang Seung-yoon and Lee Seung-hoon of WINNER, and Lee Su-hyun of AKMU, the septet’s monstrous talents were spotlighted through solo, unit and group performances on YouTube that helped them quickly garner millions of fans — including Charlie Puth, who would go on to gift a pop track for BABYMONSTER after catching Ahyeon’s take on his 2016 single “Dangerous” in one of the standout moments from the show. Not only did “Sheesh” mark a breakout moment for the group musically, but the septet also reimagined the hit into a “band version” to deliver a full-fledged, rock-star rendition of the track across several TV shows to share their full, live experience.
