On November 15, 2025 (Saturday), starting at Chiba "LaLa arena TOKYO-BAY", BABYMONSTER's first fan concert in Japan, "BABYMONSTER 'LOVE MONSTERS' JAPAN FAN CONCERT 2025", concluded its final performance at Kobe "GLION ARENA KOBE" with great success, attracting a total of 100,000 attendees across 8 performances in 4 cities. On December 6 (Saturday) and 7 (Sunday), 10,000 fans attended each day at GLION ARENA KOBE, marking BABYMONSTER's first performance in Kobe in about 1 year and 5 months since their 1st fan meeting "BABYMONSTER PRESENTS: SEE YOU THERE -FINAL-" held in July last year. As the volume of "HOT SAUCE" gradually increased in the background music before the show, the audience began to sing along, heating up the venue. When the opening SE switched, a deafening cheer erupted. The opening song was "WE GO UP", the title track from their 2nd mini-album, followed by "SHEESH", the lead track from their 1st mini-album, bringing the venue to a peak from the start. After each member greeted the audience, Ahyeon said, "It's just begun, the real show is yet to come!" Following Luka's call of "DRIP Let's Go", they performed the title track "DRIP" and "CLIK CLAK" from their 1st full album. After a dance performance video of "WE GO UP" was shown, they showcased three songs with pleasant rhythms: "Love, Maybe", "Really Like You", and "WILD". The dance challenge segment focused on the audience, where some danced energetically while others shyly waved their hands, creating a friendly atmosphere. In the middle, they performed "BILLIONAIRE" and the addictive new song "PSYCHO", which recently surpassed 100 million views on its music video. Fun segments unique to the fan concert included a Q&A where members answered fan questions and a "Telepathy Game" where members competed to see if they could match poses with selected audience members. The finale included "BATTER UP", the summer hit "HOT SAUCE", and concluded the main set with "FOREVER". The first encore started with "SUPA DUPA LUV". As they rode on a trolley, they threw signed balls to the audience, then performed "GHOST", their first original song released in Japan. After an MC segment, they performed "WE GO UP" and "BATTER UP (Remix)" for the encore, but ended with a double encore of the fan-requested song "Love In My Heart" amidst thunderous cheers, closing Japan's first fan concert. ■ Concert Overview "BABYMONSTER 'LOVE MONSTERS' JAPAN FAN CONCERT 2025" Chiba "LaLa arena TOKYO-BAY" November 15 (Saturday) - 16 (Sunday), 10,000 each day: Total 20,000 Nagoya "IG Arena" November 22 (Saturday) - 23 (Sunday), 15,000 each day: Total 30,000 Tokyo "TOKYO ARIAKE ARENA" December 2 (Tuesday) - 3 (Wednesday), 15,000 each day: Total 30,000 Kobe "GLION ARENA KOBE" December 6 (Saturday) - 7 (Sunday), 10,000 each day: Total 20,000 ★ Setlist M1: WE GO UP M2: SHEESH M3: DRIP M4: CLIK CLAK M5: Love, Maybe M6: Really Like You M7: WILD M8: BILLIONAIRE M9: PSYCHO M10: BATTER UP M11: HOT SAUCE M12: FOREVER (End of main set) EN1: SUPA DUPA LUV EN2: GHOST EN3: WE GO UP EN4: BATTER UP (Remix) WEN1: Love In My Heart ■ Related Links BABYMONSTER Official Japan Site
