What happened

BABYMONSTER posted a short-form clip centered on Chiquita performing to an English romantic audio track.

Why Koreans care

The minority appeal to YG reflects a Korean idol-industry expectation that agencies act as guardians as well as employers, especially for underage members. Styling is therefore discussed not merely as personal fashion but as a management decision tied to age-appropriate concepts, sexualization, and the company’s duty to protect artists.

What Korean viewers say

Majority — Commenters primarily praise Chiquita’s appearance, often combining “cute” and “pretty”: “Chiquita is so cute and pretty.” Fandom — Several emphasize her performance ability and affectionately position her as their favorite: “Canny has every talent in the world! My favorite, my love!” Minority — One commenter directly challenges the agency over styling and protection: “YG Entertainment, most BABYMONSTER members are still minors. Please stop giving them revealing outfits or choreography inappropriate for their age.” This introduces a protective concern absent from the otherwise celebratory reactions.

What you'd miss

“치키타 미쳤나” literally resembles “Has Chiquita gone crazy?”, but here 미쳤나 is an admiring intensifier: “Is Chiquita insane? She’s so pretty.” Likewise, “장난 아니네” literally means “It’s no joke,” but conventionally signals that her dancing is exceptionally impressive.
