BamBam and Sandara Park have been really great friends for some time now. After all, the GOT7 member and the 2NE1 rapper have both signed to ABYSS Company since 2021. However, it looks like BamBam made DARA’s move to the agency possible. The Thai idol revealed that he was the reason why the “Festival” singer joined the company in the first place!

Sandara Park Confirms BamBam Influenced Her Into Signing With His New Company

BamBam and Sandara Park made a delightful appearance on the September 8, 2023 episode of SBS Power FM’s “Cultwo Show” where they shared an intriguing anecdote about their friendship and collaboration. During the episode, Sandara recounted the pivotal moment when she decided to sign with ABYSS Company.

When Sandara met with ABYSS Company’s CEO to discuss the contract, she was pleasantly surprised by his companion, BamBam. In a playful and influencer-like manner, BamBam enthusiastically encouraged Sandara to sign, exclaiming, “It’s great. [Sign] it!” His support and conviction played a pivotal role in reassuring Sandara as she put pen to paper.

Their camaraderie has since blossomed into a close friendship. As MCs and guests on various occasions, they grew even closer, sharing moments like enjoying Chinese liquor together. BamBam and Sandara’s connection serves as a testament to the bonds that can form within the entertainment industry, transcending labels and fostering genuine friendships.

Dara debuted with 2NE1 in May 2009. She was the first member of the group to release a solo single “Kiss” (feat. CL) which was used for a Cass Beer promotional campaign. After 2NE1 disbanded in November 2016, Dara signed a solo contract with YG Entertainment. However, she did not release any solo music and later joined ABYSS Company in 2021.

In January 2021, BamBam left JYP Entertainment following the expiration of his contract. He later signed with ABYSS Company, releasing his first solo album ‘Sour & Sweet’ in March 2023.

But why is BamBam losing followers on Instagram in the first place? One Twitter user revealed that the platform is currently deleting spam and inactive accounts. Instagram is also becoming more strict with bots and deleting bot accounts as of late.

Although BamBam is the only one who has noticed he is being unfollowed, other users are also losing followers due to deleted accounts. Luckily, this means that BamBam’s real supporters have never abandoned him. He currently has 17.5 million followers on Instagram.

BamBam recently gave AHGASEs an awesome treat by confirming he and fellow GOT7 member Mark got matching tattoos. The “Sour & Sweet” singer shared a photo of himself and Mark Tuan showing off their “7” tattoos on their backs.

The tattoos also tease that the other GOT7 members might get it as well. However, JB, Jinyoung, Jackson, Youngjae, and Yugyeom have yet to reveal their own “7” tattoos.

In related news, BamBam recently wrapped up the first season of his YouTube talk show “Bam House”. The final episode featured (G)I-DLE member Minnie who shared her hilarious first impression of the GOT7 member.

“Bam House” is reportedly set for a second season which will air when BamBam moves to a new house.

GOT7’s BamBam & (G)I-DLE’s Minnie Reminisce First Meeting Through BLACKPINK’s Lisa

BamBam and Minnie have once again proven their remarkable friendship. The GOT7 member invited the (G)I-DLE main vocalist to a “Bam House” episode to chat about their first meeting. Interestingly, the idols’ first interaction involved Thai superstar BLACKPINK’s Lisa!

BamBam Welcomes Minnie For Final Episode of ‘Bam House’

In the latest episode of “Bam House”, BamBam welcomed Minnie who arrived with cake and a gift for the GOT7 rapper’s birthday. The (G)I-DLE singer was happy to be the guest for the show’s final episode. She also pointed out that she hasn’t visited the “Ribbon” singer’s house since Lunar New Year in 2022.

BamBam couldn’t remember Minnie’s last visit but he asked if she recalled their first meeting. “Wasn’t it at KCON?” she wondered, but he said that was incorrect.

“No, no. It was when you didn’t have bangs,” BamBam said. He then pointed out that BLACKPINK’s Lisa was present during the interaction.

“Lisa asked me if I knew who you were, and I said I did,” he stated.

Minnie then remembered the moment. “That must have been when I went bowling with Lisa. Did we meet up with you after bowling? That was the year I debuted.”

BamBam pointed out, “I thought I knew you since before your debut, but it turns out, that’s not the case.”

Although there is some confusion about how they first met, Minnie clearly remembers her first impression of BamBam. She revealed that she had seen the rapper before her debut because of the vicinity of their dorms.

“Before I debuted, we lived in a dorm that was across the street from GOT7’s dorm,” Minnie revealed. “One day, I was on my way to the company, and I saw you walking in front of me,” she said to BamBam.

“You were wearing very pointy boots and super skinny jeans. In my head, I thought, ‘Why is he so thin?’. That was my first impression of him,” Minnie said.

“Bam House” is expected to get a second season when BamBam moves to a new house. (G)I-DLE is currently promoting their sixth mini album ‘I Feel’ with the title track “Queencard”.
