Rami

Rami, born Shin Haram on October 17, 2007, is the lead vocalist of YG Entertainment's girl group BABYMONSTER. She is known for her powerful vocals, emotional delivery, and stable live performances, which have quickly established her as a standout performer in the fifth generation of K-pop. As of 2026, she is on a temporary hiatus due to health issues, but her contributions to the group's success remain central to their reputation for authentic stage prowess.

BABYMONSTER has topped Korean music charts and appeared on the Billboard Global 200, selling over a million albums collectively. Rami's role as lead vocalist has been instrumental in the group's recognition as a turning point in K-pop for young, versatile talent. She is also noted for her warm personality, sense of humor, and role as the group's comedian.[edit]

Rami started her journey in the spotlight early, working as a child model from age two to twelve. She appeared in numerous clothing, toy, and commercial advertisements, building confidence and familiarity with the camera. At age seven, she won the grand prize at a beauty pageant, a sign of her early star quality.

Her path to K-pop began when she auditioned for YG Entertainment in August 2018, singing "Good Time" by Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen, as well as "Look" by Red Velvet. She was accepted as a direct message trainee, a rare honor that indicated YG's high interest. For the next five to six years, she trained nine to ten hours daily, honing her vocals, dance, and stage presence.

Rami attended Hanlim Arts High School, where she studied applied music. She was the only student in her department to receive a scholarship for applied music, admitted as a top student because of her vocal ability. Her role models are AKMU's Lee Suhyun and BLACKPINK's Rosé, who have heavily influenced her singing style. She also speaks English, wears glasses off-stage, and was a former iKON fan.[edit]

Rami's career breakthrough came on January 12, 2023, when YG Entertainment revealed her as the first member of BABYMONSTER through a live performance video. The group's pre-debut single "Dream" was released in May 2023, followed by their official debut single "Batter Up" on November 27, 2023. "Batter Up" quickly surpassed 100 million YouTube views, signaling the group's strong start.

BABYMONSTER released their debut mini-album BABYMONS7ER on April 1, 2024, which included the hit track "SHEESH." Rami contributed to the group's creative process by participating in lyrics, composition, and choreography for special performances like "2NE1 Mash Up" and "Pick Up Your Feelings." Her vocal stability during high-energy performances has drawn comparisons to YG legends like Taeyang and Park Bom.

Subsequent releases included the 2025 tracks and album "DRIP" and the second mini-album "WE GO UP" in October 2025, featuring title tracks "WE GO UP" and "Psycho." The group undertook the expanding Hello Monsters World Tour and delivered high-profile year-end stages at MAMA and SBS Gayo Daejeon. Rami's live vocal stability has been a key factor in BABYMONSTER's reputation. In May 2025, she entered an indefinite hiatus due to pneumothorax, a condition that developed while preparing for "SHEESH." As of mid-2026, she remains on hiatus with no confirmed return date; the group continues as six members.[edit]

Rami is widely regarded as a vocally gifted powerhouse with a warm, humorous, and relatable personality. Media and fans often highlight her stable live vocals and emotional delivery, comparing her to YG legends like Taeyang and Park Bom. On stage, she exudes confidence and athleticism, often seen in crop tops and performance wear that complement her energetic dance moves. Off stage, she is known as the group's comedian, with a playful sense of humor and a tendency to cry easily over small things. Her aesthetic blends powerful stage presence with youthful, sporty, and elegant styling. The official fandom name is MONSTIEZ. Fan culture includes enthusiastic support for her vocal technique, anticipation for her return from hiatus, and creation of performance reaction videos and edits. Rami does not maintain personal social media accounts; her presence is conveyed through the group's official Instagram and YouTube channel, where her voice is youthful, energetic, and fan-engaging.[edit]

Rami commands a global stage defined by raw vocal power and a narrative of resilience that has captivated millions since her debut. Despite the group's massive commercial success, iFANN's Global Fame Engine has evaluated this person, but they do not currently hold a placement in the published rankings (Global Top 1,000 or a Top-100 scope list). The absence of a numerical rank reflects a status where immense fan loyalty and viral moments have yet to translate into a specific tier within the broader celebrity hierarchy. Her audience remains fiercely dedicated despite her prolonged absence from public view. While the group's fanbase is known as MONSTIEZ, Rami does not have an officially designated sub-fandom name. This collective has organized significant support campaigns, including birthday billboards in Seoul and subway advertisements funded to celebrate her return from hiatus. These initiatives highlight a community deeply invested in her well-being, shifting from promotional pushes to emotional support following her health announcement in May 2025. Fans continue to recount stories of her powerful pre-debut performances and early solo showcases as evidence of her unique talent, creating a cultural mythology around her potential departure and eventual return.[edit]

Born Shin Haram on October 17, 2007, Rami originally carried the stage name Haram before changing it to Rami on November 23, 2023, ahead of BABYMONSTER's debut. In the final member ranking for the group, she placed fourth. Known as the group's comedian who cries easily over small things, she is also extremely competitive and adventurous, excelling at climbing, skiing, badminton, and skating. She once asked member Rora to bake cookies for her, and netizens frequently note her resemblance to actress Go Youn-jung. Her MBTI type is INFJ, though it was previously reported as ISFJ. As of 2026, she holds no individual awards or solo magazine covers. A defining legend surrounding her involves the sudden indefinite hiatus announced in May 2025 due to serious health concerns. This event sparked widespread worry, with rumors intensifying after other members performed without her at the 2025 MAMA Awards. Fans launched online charity drives and social media threads dedicated to sharing well-wishes, turning her absence into a focal point of emotional investment within the K-pop community.[edit]

Rami grew up in Seoul with her parents and a younger brother named Shinsu, born in 2012. Her mother reportedly nearly pursued an idol career herself. The family resides in Sangbong-dong, Jungnang-gu, Seoul, and provided a supportive home environment that encouraged her early modeling and music career. She belongs to the Pyeongsan Shin Clan.[edit]

Rami is a member of BABYMONSTER alongside Ahyeon, Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Rora, and Chiquita. Her role model is AKMU's Lee Suhyun, whom she admires for her vocal talent. She has worked closely with YG Entertainment producers on group projects. [edit]

Rami has no confirmed public dating history. As a K-pop idol under YG Entertainment's strict dating policies, she has maintained a private personal life. There are no credible reports of relationships, engagements, or marriages. As of 2026, she is single and focused on recovery and career.[edit]

iFANN currently estimates Rami's net worth at $1-2 Million as of 2026. This figure accounts for her earnings derived from BABYMONSTER's group activities, including album sales reaching multiple million-seller status, digital singles, YouTube views with the group channel nearing 100 million subscribers, and world tour concerts. While YG Entertainment trainees typically earn between $50,000 and $100,000 per year after debut, the group's success has likely boosted her income through profit sharing. Rami has not pursued solo endorsements, acting income, real estate holdings, investments, or business ventures. Her pre-debut modeling work from ages 2 to 12 contributed minimal income. Her net worth is expected to grow once she returns from her hiatus and BABYMONSTER resumes full group activities.[edit]

Rami has not won any individual awards as of 2026. Her group BABYMONSTER has received rookie accolades at major ceremonies like the MAMA Awards, but she has no solo wins. [edit]
