On the airwaves of KBS CoolFM's "Park Myung-soo's Radio Show," the budding girl group, BABYMONSTER, comprised of members Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Rami, Rora, and Chiquita, engaged in an intriguing exchange with DJ Park Myung-soo on April 15th.

During their appearance, BABYMONSTER unveiled an unexpected gift bestowed upon them by none other than the esteemed singer-songwriter, Charlie Puth.

With enthusiasm, they revealed, "The singer-songwriter we respect, Charlie Puth, gave us a song."

The revelation stemmed from Ahyeon's rendition of Puth's "Dangerously" on a survival program, which caught the attention of the acclaimed artist.

Impressed by her performance, Puth extended his generosity by offering them the song "LIKE THAT" as a token of appreciation.

Puth's Positive Reception

Inquisitive about Puth's reaction, Park Myung-soo probed further. BABYMONSTER eagerly responded, affirming, "He really liked it. Our fans also really love this song," indicating the positive reception their collaboration received.

Individual Aspirations Unveiled

Beyond their newfound musical endeavor, BABYMONSTER took the opportunity to share their individual aspirations.

When asked about their goals in light of the group's launch by YG Entertainment, seven years after BLACKPINK's debut, each member articulated their unique ambitions.

Rora expressed her desire for the prestigious Rookie of the Year award, emphasizing its significance as a once-in-a-lifetime achievement.

Asa articulated her aspirations to create an extensive discography and engage with fans through live performances.

Ahyeon, inspired by BLACKPINK's longevity and success, voiced her aspiration for sustained, healthy activity in the industry, alongside a dream of gracing the stage at Coachella.

Meanwhile, YG Entertainment has faced criticism for BABYMONSTER's absence from music and entertainment programs despite the group's debut two months ago.

However, it's revealed that the group's quiet approach is strategic. The focus is on perfecting their first mini-album before engaging in promotional activities, aiming for global success and meeting high fan expectations. This decision reflects YG's intention to position BABYMONSTER as a significant successor to BLACKPINK.

Despite limited public exposure, BABYMONSTER has already garnered substantial attention, with their pre-release song "Stuck In the Middle" receiving millions of views shortly after its release. The group plans to intensify promotional efforts upon the official release of their first mini-album in April.
