MONSTIES woke up to eight figures. BABYMONSTER's 'MOON' music video went past ten million views overnight, and this desk can say exactly how close it watched: the counter read 9,339,842 at eleven minutes past midnight Korean time on August 4, and 11,450,626 at one minute past eight that morning. The line fell inside that gap, and no reading here will pretend to a minute nobody observed.
The video went up at 9:06 p.m. Korean time on August 2, so the crossing sits somewhere between 27 and 35 hours after posting. What the readings before it show is a climb that never flattened: 3,643,714 at eight on the morning of August 3, 4,825,306 five hours later, 7,326,540 by ten to seven that evening, 8,769,110 by ten to eleven at night.
The counter kept moving after the milestone. At 12:41 p.m. on August 4 it stood at 12,041,526, against 581,093 likes and 45,637 comments. Every one of those figures comes from the official counter on BABYMONSTER's own channel, read directly rather than estimated.
This is the kind of number that only exists if somebody was watching at the time. The readings above are K-POP PULSE snapshots, taken through the day and kept, and they sit alongside every other post from the channel on BABYMONSTER's record page here, dated to the minute.
