• GOT7's BamBam Shows Off Big Heart, "Bought My Parents a Two-Story House with My First Salary"

    GOT7's BamBam is set to be a special MC on KBS 2TV's variety show "Boss's Ears Are Donkey Ears" (directed by Ahn Sang-eun), airing on the 21st.

    On the 19th, the show’s producers announced that BamBam will join the "SaDangGwi" episode as a special guest MC. During a recent recording, BamBam talked about how he used his first earnings to support his family. Known for his generosity, BamBam shared, "I used my earnings to buy my parents a two-story house in Bangkok and got a car for my younger sister who has a long commute."

    BamBam, who is originally from Thailand, also shared some funny stories from his 14 years in Korea. He said, "When I was a trainee, I used to pretend not to understand when the trainer scolded me, saying things like 'Your words are too fast' or 'You used too difficult Korean words.' Sometimes, the trainer would get tired and scold me less," adding a humorous touch to his stories.

    When asked by Jeon Hyun-moo about his Korean skills, BamBam showed off his language abilities by explaining, "I understand Korean well. When I argue, it turns into a disagreement, but when senior Myungsoo argues, it turns into a fight." His clear explanation made the hosts laugh.

    BamBam also reacted to the messy desks of KBS's new announcers, suggesting, "Let’s call Brian-hyung to clean the office." This led to a debate about whether senior colleagues should clean up after juniors. Announcer Eom Ji-in said she helps clean with a motherly attitude because the juniors hadn’t cleaned up for a while. However, Jeon Hyun-moo argued that while the intention was good, it might be seen as "Why did you touch my desk?"

    The episode airs on the 21st at 4:40 PM.
