With September, the slated debut month, coming to a close and no official announcement of the group's introduction in sight, fans are left wondering about the status of this promising ensemble.

YG Entertainment, known for its K-pop powerhouse BLACKPINK, had generated significant buzz with the impending debut of BABYMONSTER, its first girl group in seven years.

The group's lineup was decided through a survival show, introducing members Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Haram, Rora, and Chikita to the eager public.

Ahyeon, in particular, had garnered substantial recognition, with her rendition of "Dangerously" during the show propelling her to viral stardom.

The stage was set, with expectations running high, and YG Entertainment had earlier revealed that BABYMONSTER was set to make their debut in September 2023.

Korean media outlets had even reported on the group's debut song selection, fueling anticipation for their imminent arrival.

However, as the month winds down, uncertainty looms large. No official word about the group's debut has emerged, leading fans to speculate about the reasons behind the delay, especially concerning Ahyeon's conspicuous absence.
