In a resounding testament to their status as the “monster rookies” of the fifth generation, YG Entertainment’s newest girl group, BABYMONSTER, has officially sold out all three nights of their highly anticipated “CHOOM” concert series in Seoul.
The news, confirmed on April 11, 2026, highlights the group’s explosive growth and domestic demand following the massive success of their recent comeback.
Held at the iconic Olympic Hall, the concerts mark the group’s first major solo residency in the capital, and the lightning-fast ticket sales have left thousands of fans- known as “Monstiez”- hoping for additional dates.
Unprecedented Demand and the “CHOOM” Phenomenon
The “CHOOM” concert title, which translates to “Dance” in Korean, was chosen to highlight the group’s reputation as a performance-heavy powerhouse.
From the moment ticketing opened earlier this week, the demand was overwhelming. All three dates- scheduled for late April—were completely booked within minutes of being made available to the public.
Industry analysts have noted that selling out a multi-day residency at this stage of their career is a rare feat, signaling that BABYMONSTER has successfully bridged the gap between a strong international following and a robust domestic fanbase.
A representative from YG Entertainment addressed the achievement, emphasizing the group’s dedication to their craft.
“The members have been working tirelessly to prepare a setlist that showcases their evolution since debut.
To see all three days sell out so quickly is a huge motivation for them.
We are incredibly grateful to the fans for their passionate support and promise a stage that lives up to the ‘Monster’ name.”
The agency also noted that the production for this tour involves state-of-the-art stage technology designed to enhance the high-energy choreography for which the group is known.
Setting New Records for Fifth-Generation Girl Groups
The success of the “CHOOM” series is the latest in a string of milestones for the seven-member ensemble.
Having already shattered YouTube and streaming records with their debut and subsequent releases, this sell-out performance cements their position as a dominant force in the physical and live performance market.
The group consisting of Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Rami, Rora, and Chiquita has been praised for their “all-rounder” capabilities, with each member contributing to live vocals and complex dance routines that have become viral sensations.
Direct feedback from the members has been filled with excitement and humility. During a brief rehearsal-break livestream, Ahyeon shared her thoughts on the news, saying,
“We honestly couldn’t believe it when we heard all the seats were gone. It feels like a dream to be able to meet so many of you over three days.
We want to show you the best version of ourselves, so please look forward to it!”
Ruka added,
“The energy we’re putting into these rehearsals is on another level. We want to make sure every single person who bought a ticket leaves feeling like they’ve seen something unforgettable.”
As the group enters final preparations for the Seoul dates, there is already intense speculation regarding a broader world tour.
With sold-out shows in their home city acting as a successful launchpad, BABYMONSTER is poised to take their “CHOOM” concept to global stages throughout the remainder of 2026.
For now, the focus remains on the Seoul Olympic Hall, where the group is expected to deliver a performance that reinforces why they are considered the definitive leaders of the new era of K-pop.
