  "account": "Seoul, on October 14 (Yonhap) - K-pop girl group Babymonster is set to return with a new digital single titled Deserve, announced by their label YG Entertainment on Wednesday. This marks the first new music from Babymonster in approximately four months since their previous release, Sugar Honey Ice Tea, in June. YG chief producer Yang Hyun-suk described Deserve as a slower song with stronger energy than the group's previous works. The seven-member group is currently on their second world tour, Choom, which consists of 31 shows in 18 cities. YG also revealed that Babymonster is preparing to release a new album early next year. TREASURE, the boy group, will comeback on November 2 with a digital single called Shock, which features a powerful hip-hop sound. Yang stated that this release represents a significant shift in the group's musical direction, signifying the start of their second chapter, with activities planned to continue until 2027. YG Entertainment further announced plans to launch a five-member boy group and a four-member girl group. The two new acts will record demo songs by the end of the year, with their debut schedules to be determined once the lead tracks for their first releases are selected.",
