On August 22, the topic of BABYMONSTER and their rivals spread in online communities under the title: “BABY MONSTERS are in big trouble.” The author wrote: “The current 4th generation groups are too active to get a piece of the domestic fan pie, so they end up having to focus on international fans. It looks like the popularity effect of BLACKPINK’s shout-outs to BABYMONSTER could spill over to MEOVV,” related to The black label‘s up-and-coming girl group.

The poster continued: “The image fits so well. BABYMONSTER didn’t quite fit the picture, even though they were marketed as BLACKPINK’s sister group. But (MEOVV) really makes a nod to BLACKPINK’s sister group. It also looks like they are very successful in securing the role of luxury ambassadors – the vibe is incredible,” Sharing photos of BLACKPINK members and alleged MEOVV members together.

Internet users commented: “I think BLACKPINK’s real sister group is MEOVV”, “BABYMONSTER dragged on too much from the start”, “It feels like MEOVV is actually BLACKPINK’s junior group”, and more.
