This erasure has sparked a huge anxiety.
BABYMONSTER’s recent behind-the-scenes YouTube content has sparked a row about the group’s future.
A few days ago, the group’s YouTube channel posted a behind-the-scenes video of the girls performing their latest title track, “We Go Up,” at music shows and securing their first live broadcast win at M Countdown.
Since this was a huge career milestone for the group, the YouTube video included a brief montage of the members performing at music shows during their previous releases, showing how consistently they have been working toward that moment. However, that montage also turned into a source of anxiety for many fans as they felt it omitted Rami completely by either not including her in the clips or blurring out her face.
이거또어게인하셧다면서요
1위는 이멤버없이 했더라도 같이 함께했던 시간들이 사라지는건 아니잖아요 너무 노골적이게 통편한 것 처럼 보이는데 저만 너무 예민한가요 https://t.co/v5XUD2kePR pic.twitter.com/SXEv68kcsZ— 롬 (@R0M7_) November 3, 2025
Given that the throwback clips were from the group’s “Sheesh” and “Drip” eras, when Rami was active and promoting, fans were left concerned by the implications of YG Entertainment not including her in the clips. With Rami’s continued absence from group activities, many saw it as an indication of a possible departure.
It’s crazy how @ygent_official is pretending Rami doesn’t exist. A hiatus doesn’t mean you have to erase her. He didn’t even mention her when talking about the mini album. They only include her in ads because of the contract 😭 https://t.co/JgXLOPJX1A

On the other hand, some pointed out that Rami was included in a very brief cut, without getting blurred out. They argued that the video focused more on the active members and that there might have been other reasons behind this decision.

Let’s be Precise
She wasn’t blurred
But the editing was centered on the 6 active members
Is it good or bad?
I don’t know
Maybe it’s just for commercial or legal reasons, and YG wants to avoid people saying that the agency is using Rami’s image for Promotion during her absence https://t.co/jY9PH7pLRo pic.twitter.com/ODLxTUqC89— Bloody_Butterfly 🦋🔰 (@Bloodyb_sama) November 4, 2025
However, it seems that the anxiety around Rami possibly leaving the group is the dominating narrative right now.

Meanwhile, Rami has not participated in any of BABYMONSTER’s activities since May 2025 and YG Entertainment has cited health reasons for her absence. It was only recently that one of the members briefly talked about her during a fan event. Read more here:
