Apparently the list of songs on Babymon's album was "accidentally" leaked today by the photo of a Thai politician. A total of 7 songs. Next to it was also a document for Treasure's 2024 plans which looks like a good amount of things, but the text was way too small/blurry to read. Also feels hella staged with coincidentally just those 2 pieces of paper on the bulletin board...But just bc it looks staged doesn't mean it's inaccurate.
