BABYMONSTER is successively revealing new visuals of the members, raising excitement for their comeback. YG ENTERTAINMENT posted visual photos of the new digital single 'SUGAR HONEY ICE TEA' on the official blog on the 29th. Following Asa and Chiquita, Laura and Parita, who appeared as the second runners, are expected to show a different charm from the hip mood of their previous activities. Both have styling accented with pearl necklaces, and the contrast of their chic atmosphere stands out. Laura shows a natural and relaxed appearance with a soft gaze while keeping her chin up, and Parita pairs a top with soft pink-toned makeup and ribbon details, exuding a calm yet dreamy aura. Following the teacup that appeared with Asa the previous day, this time, an afternoon tea prop is placed in front of Laura, catching the eye. Previously, YG ENTERTAINMENT hinted that this would be a 'summer song' that refreshingly blows away the heat, so attention is focused on what concept BABYMONSTER will showcase with this new song. BABYMONSTER's digital single 'SUGAR HONEY ICE TEA' will be released on June 8 (Monday) at 12 AM. This is a rapid comeback following the release of their 3rd mini-album '춤 (CHOOM)' on May 4 (May 5 in Japan), and they plan to continue their energetic activities in response to fans' love. Starting in June, BABYMONSTER will hold their second world tour, covering a total of 18 cities and 27 performances, including 6 cities in Japan (Kobe, Fukuoka, Yokohama, Chiba, Nagoya, Osaka), 8 cities in Asia (Manila, Macau, Jakarta, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Singapore, Hong Kong), and 3 cities in Oceania (Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney). Additional schedules for Europe, North America, and South America are also planned.
