YG Entertainment first announced its plans to debut a new girl group through a video titled ‘YG NEXT MOVEMENT’ on the last day of 2022. It featured clips of the girl group’s members singing and dancing during rehearsals along with anecdotes from their labelmates.

BabyMonster will be the agency’s first girl group after seven years, after BLACKPINK who debuted in 2016. Other details on the girl group’s line-up and debut date have yet to be released.
