BABYMONSTER is "pathetic" under MEOVV, the "Rosé junior" who has just debuted has stirred up Kpop

Officially launched on the afternoon of September 6, the rookie MEOVV has become a topic of discussion on Korean and international music forums. As a girl group under Teddy's hands, MEOVV is inevitably compared to YG's rookie - BABYMONSTER.

On the afternoon of September 6, MEOVV - a rookie group founded by THE BLACK LABEL officially "dropped" the debut MV named MEOW, receiving great attention from fans.

"MEOW" is a Teddy "brand" mix, with the main rap-hiphop material. The rushing bass and electronic sound are reminiscent of BLACKPINK's hit songs.

As soon as "MEOW" was released, it was compared to BABYMONSTER's debut song "Batter Up", which is also YG's 5th generation girl group.

"Batter Up" was released on November 27, 2023 with an unimpressive first hour performance. The song only reached the 140 Genie ranking, and did not enter any other major Korean music charts. Meanwhile, "MEOW" had a first-hour record of 53rd Bugs and 126th Genie.

The discussion about MEOVV is also leading on Kpop forums. MEOW's debut MV garnered nearly 800 thousand views after just 1 hour of posting, showing that people are extremely interested in the 5 "cats" of Teddy's house. Although the initial digital music performance of "MEOW" was better than "Batter Up", the MEOVV group still received a lot of mixed reactions from the public.

Under a post that attracted 30,000 views and more than 600 comments on theqoo online community, on the evening of September 6, Korean audiences mostly responded poorly to the MV "MEOW".

They left a comment: "MV has medium to weak quality"; "I was confused because I didn't know what the MV was trying to say"; "I expected too much"; "This style is nothing new"; "There is a feeling that the first member (Narin) is the one who carries the group"; "They don't seem to be good at dancing"; "Is this really Teddy's song?" ...

Or "The members look beautiful and stylish, but the song and MV are not. They are clumsy, untalented and have no identity"; "The members are fine, but I think a different style would suit them better"; "In the photos when they were trainees, they looked so attractive and talented, why did they look so poor in the MV?" ...

In addition, the cliché lyric as well as MEOW's not too invested MV also made a part of the audience express their disappointment on social networks. However, this is only the "pitch" product of the rookie THE BLACK LABEL, maybe in the next songs, the group will have a more breakthrough!

In another post on theqoo that attracted 40,000 views, with the title comparing BABYMONSTER's debut song "Batter Up" and MEOVV's "MEOW", many Korean viewers thought that both songs were not impressive. But the BABYMONSTER members possess superior talent, voice and beauty.

Some other opinions suggest that producers Yang Hyun Suk and Teddy should work together to get a good girl group like BLACKPINK.

MEOVV is a 5-member girl group, including: ELLA (2008), GAWON (2005), ANNA (2005), NARIN (2007) and SOOIN (2005). 3/5 members used to work as models before becoming Kpop idols.

It is known that THE BLACK LABEL has signed a cooperation agreement with Geffen Records - a record label under the world's largest distribution company UMG to "pave the way" for the "darling" MEOVV in the promotion in the international market. In addition, after releasing their debut MV, the group will also have their first stage on the upcoming Inkigayo air.

Previously, during the showcase to introduce the debut product, MEOVV's GAWON member shared about the advice of the "housemate" Rosé (BLACKPINK): "Senior Rosé shared a lot of meaningful stories with our group. She emphasized the importance of loving music deeply when taking the time and space to fully immerse yourself in music. Those are the words I remember the most, I am really impressed by her sincerity and great respect for music."

MEOVV successfully debuted but ignored BLACKPINK, flattered strangers, was criticized for being ungrateful?
