BamBam is GOT7's fashion maverick and chaos agent — sharp-tongued in the most loveable way, fiercely loyal to his friends, and relentlessly ahead of the style curve. He moved to Korea from Thailand as a child trainee, and his journey from Bangkok to global stages has shaped a personality that is both worldly and deeply warm. He is closest to Yugyeom (they have been best friends since their shared trainee days) and Youngjae.
