YG Entertainment is once again in hot water with fans over the styling of one of its young girl group members.
The controversy this time is surrounding BABYMONSTER member Ahyeon’s stage outfit during the group’s ongoing concert tour.

After BABYMONSTER’s recent CHOOM World Tour concert in Seoul, Ahyeon became a hot topic on social media as photos and videos of her in a particular black stage costume started going viral. The off-the-shoulder outfit exposed the young idol’s chest area quite excessively, prompting concerns and criticism.

These pictures and clips eventually ended up on pages where Aheyon was subjected to disturbing sexualization, drawing millions of views and enraging fans further.

Some fans also pointed out that during the concert, the idol herself seemed aware of the dress’s level of exposure and was trying to cover her chest with her hair.

Fans across the globe have called on YG Entertainment to protect Ahyeon and the rest of the BABYMONSTER members better and demanded more age-appropriate styling for future shows. However, this isn’t an isolated case of questionable stage appearance for this group, and despite being called out regarding another minor member’s concerning sexualization, the label is yet to respond.
