MONSTA X has reached their 10th anniversary and made a donation under the name of their fan club. The international NGO Good Neighbors announced today (12th) that MONSTA X has donated to support underprivileged children in Korea before the end of the year. Celebrating their 10th anniversary this year, MONSTA X made this donation in gratitude for the love received from fans, under the name of their fan club MONBEBE. The donation is intended to be used for underprivileged children in Korea. Good Neighbors conducts a meal support project that delivers meal kits, side dishes, and groceries to children who worry about meals during long holidays. Since starting donations in 2020 for low-income individuals affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, MONSTA X has continued to share steadily. In March, they donated 100 million won (approximately 1 million USD) to Good Neighbors for residents and children affected by wildfires in Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk, joining the high-level donor club 'The Neighbors Honors Club.' The Neighbors Honors Club is a gathering of leaders who have donated over 100 million won for positive changes in the world. The members stated, 'Because we have been with our fans, the 10 years have become more special,' and expressed their hope that this sharing will also be a great strength for someone, just as MONSTA X and MONBEBE support each other. Hyun Dae-jun, head of the external cooperation department at Good Neighbors, expressed deep gratitude for MONSTA X's positive influence in commemorating this meaningful moment of their 10th anniversary through sharing, stating, 'Good Neighbors will do our best in our projects so that marginalized neighbors can spend a warm end of the year.' They were invited to the '2025 Asia Artist Awards' in December, following their first grand prize trophy for 'Stage of the Year' at the 'Asia Artist Awards' in 2020. They are also set to perform at the largest year-end festival in America, the '2025 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour,' to meet fans. MONSTA X plans to release their American digital single 'baby blue' at midnight on the 14th. The new song 'baby blue' will be their first official American single in about four years since the release of their second full album 'THE DREAMING' in December 2021. At that time, they ranked on the American 'Billboard 200' for two consecutive weeks with 'THE DREAMING,' proving their global influence, and they are expected to showcase a different charm through this new song.
