One minute before midnight in Seoul, BABYMONSTER gave MONSTIES the version of 'MOON' built to be watched rather than heard — the official performance video, posted to the group's own channel on August 4.
It runs two minutes and fifty-seven seconds. At the time of writing the clip had gathered 361,395 views, with 93,029 likes and 9,242 comments sitting under it.
The description says almost nothing and points everywhere: a list of official BABYMONSTER accounts on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, Weibo and bilibili, under the hashtags #BABYMONSTER, #베이비몬스터, #3rdMINIALBUM, #춤, #CHOOM, #MOON, #PerformanceVideo and #YG.
This desk has been counting 'MOON' since it arrived. The music video went up on August 2 and passed 246,000 views inside its first hours; two days later it crossed ten million. The performance video is the same song from a different camera.
Context for International Fans
MONSTIES is BABYMONSTER's fandom name. A performance video is the dance-focused companion to a music video — no story, no cuts to scenery, just the choreography shot to be seen end to end. That is what #춤, the Korean word for dance, is doing in the hashtag list next to #CHOOM and #3rdMINIALBUM.
Why It Matters
The performance video is where choreography gets its own view count, separate from the music video — and for a song this desk has already watched clear ten million, it is the next number worth following.
