“K-pop girl group Babymonster also confirms concert stop at AsiaWorld-Arena early next year”
DISPUTED
The claim states a concert 'early next year' (implying 2026 given the context of the other claims), but evidence shows Babymonster had a concert at AsiaWorld-Expo on May 24-25, 2025. Other sources mention a 2026-27 tour 'CHOOM', but specific dates for Hong Kong in early 2026 are not explicitly confirmed in the provided evidence, creating a conflict between the 'early next year' claim and the May 2025 dates.
