BAMBAM of K-pop boy group GOT7 reminisced about the time he bumped into G-DRAGON of another K-pop boy group BIGBANG in Itaewon last year. On August 9 episode of YouTube show, "Zip Daesung," hosted by BIGBANG's member DAESUNG, BAMBAM appeared as a guest. During their conversation, BAMBAM mentioned that G-DRAGON was his role model when he was younger.
He said, "Back in the day, I tried to mimic G-DRAGAON's stage manners and gestures a lot because he was my role model. But then, one day, I realized I didn't have anything of my own. So, I decided to find my own style, and my life got much better after that.
It felt great to finally have something that was truly mine." DAESUNG responded with a laugh, "There were a lot of people like that," referring to the many K-pop stars who have tried to imitate G-DRAGON in their early years of career. BAMBAM then revealed that he recently ran into G-DRAGON by chance, saying, "This was like March or April last year, I went to Itaewon for an afterparty after filming with YouTuber Korean Englishman.
It was a small bar in the basement. While we were having drinks, the owner of the bar came up to me and said that someone in a private room wanted to say hello to me. When I went there, G-DRAGON greeted me with a casual 'Hey!'" Sounding quite excited, thinking back to that time, BAMBAM continued, "At the time, I was hosting the show 'EXchange,' and G-DRAGON asked me how the show ends, like who ends up with who, you know.
I couldn't tell him anything t.
