[INTERVIEW] 120304 B.A.P - “We’re on a national level and we want to do overseas promotions!”
B.A.P is a new male idol group that was ambitiously produced by TS Entertainment, who produced the female group, Secret. Even before their debut, they already because a hot topic.
At the end of January this year, they held their debut showcase in the Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul and 3 thousand fans were present. Even before their debut, they already have a strong fanbase that can be verified with. On stage, B.A.P showed a powerful and experienced stage manner, which wasn’t like a rookie’s, causing the fans who were present to become crazy.
After a month has passed since their debut, the current B.A.P is the showing a noticeable presence amongst the newcomers that debuted this year. Showing this, they are rapidly growing.
Their debut song, ‘Warrior’ differs from the bright and light-hearted dance tracks and ‘shining’ image that many male groups have been showing recently, capturing attention through it’s powerful performance and strong hip-hop sound. In contrast to this, they are showing a different charm in their recent follow-up song, ‘Secret Love’, and show a completely different look than before with their dandy look in their black suits.
The blonde hair that all the B.A.P members have is especially an eye-catching point. The leader, Bang Yongguk, mentioned, “Each member’s personality is really distinct, so we wanted to show an uniform group image.” He also added, “Because we’re still rookies, we want to leave behind a strong impression so we chose a hairstyle like this.”
Instead of the bright and cheery charms in songs and performances shown by idol groups of their age, they give off a strong and powerful masculinity. The members introduced it by saying, “We believe that men are cool being masculine. So we put an effort in showing our masculinity through our music, performance, and fashion. Through our krumping dance moves, we wanted to show a rhythm with our bodies. We often hear that we look like warriors and that we’re manly and fierce.”
Because they debuted with a powerful performance, there are people saying that it reminds them of the debut of their top seniors, H.O.T, who set foot into the music industry with their strong debut song, ‘The Descendant of Warriors’.
To this, B.A.P expressed their wish, “We’re really thankful to even be compared with top seniors. I think they give us those comments because we differ from songs that are the trend right now. It’s really an honor and we want to become a worthy group like our seniors.”
Each of the members’ personalities are distinct. Ever since he was in middle school, Bang Yongguk started promoting as an underground rapper nearby Hongdae. The team that he promoted with at that time was the hip-hop duo, Untouchable, which is now in the same entertainment as him and he became the leader of B.A.P through being close with them. He’s a talented perosn who created and sold his own hip-hop album at a hip-hop community during his 3rd year of middle school.
Jongup started his b-boying since middle school and he’s a dancer with experiences of winning awards. Zelo, whose hometown is in Jeonnam, Mokpo, started dancing and rapping at a professional academy since he was in elementary school. And after deciding that he wanted to become a singer during his 2nd year of middle school, he came up to Seoul and debuted after being a trainee for 2 years.
Himchan is the owner of a different experience because he majored in traditional Korean music. He learned how to play the Daegeum (T/N: the traditional Korean flute) in middle school and after entering the Korean Traditional Music High School, he majored in drums. He is currently on leave during his 2nd year of majoring traditional music in the Korean National University of Arts. As expected, Youngjae and Daehyun dreamt of being singers ever since they were young and after receiving professional teaching at academies, they were added to the team through auditions.
Recently in idol groups, you can often see foreigners included in the team. However, everyone from B.A.P is from Korea. The members made a resolution by saying, “Although everyone’s from Korea, we want to raise the self-pride as a Korean by receiving good results even from overseas promotions.” It’s a resoultion that they will become a group that represents Asia as they will go to Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand soon.
