Bam Bam feeds us Korea's Spiciest Street-Food!!

Oh, hello! Lovely people! Thanks for coming, mate! Bam Bam! Oh my god, I'm a big fan. Not gonna lie. Really? You're very, very welcome. Thanks for coming. Oh, we started already? Yeah! Does it feel unprofessional? No, no, no! You guys are funny people. We wanted to know what Korean food you like. Oh, me? You know, chicken feet? Yeah! Chicken feet! The last time we had chicken feet, we ended up in an emergency room. For real? Yeah. One of the worst days of my life. So, I thought it would be appropriate, if we're having spicy food again, to get emergency room tteokbokki. I'm not gonna lie, I don't really like tteok that much, because... I'm okay to eat it, I'm okay to eat it. If I have to choose one thing to eat, I like to eat rice. I love chicken feet, and I love the things called ganjang-gejang, really much. What? That's like the two hardest things to eat, as a non-Korean. You just put it in your mouth, you chew it, and that's it. It's not that hard. Are you not tempted to get Marku Jongshik out of loyalty, to your bandmate? I don't like really cheesy food. Okay, crap. Oh, tteokbokki has cheese too, damn! Tteokbokki? Bam! Cheese? Bam! Oh, goddamn. No, I like cheese. I don't know if you've met a K-pop idol before. Everyone is really sensitive about this, but I'm not gonna lie. If I have someone, I'm so ready to tell my fans, because I don't want to hide it from them. I don't want to lie, it feels a little bit weird. But my problem is, I really don't have them. Don't worry, it's coming. And when you meet the right person, I think you'll know. Okay, I hope I know. What if I never know? Yo, actually I have a question for you guys. So, I've been shooting another YouTube content. It's called, We found some problems in your channel. You have to change your name. What about? He's from Thailand, so, Yeah, it's good. So, I want to ask you, if I can use the name, Taeguk Namja, from my YouTube channel. Go for it. We didn't copyright the title, Man. Namja is not copyrighted. Look at this. Never have I been so happy. Finally. Can't wait, come on. Yo, you guys know what you guys doing. Sundae, bro. You like Sundae? Love. Oh, that's good. Okay. Sa. It just says Sa on it. Samang. Oh, how did you know? Am I right? How did you know? Samangmat. Guy. This is the Jumeokbap, right? Oh, you're going to make the Jumeokbap? Yeah. Why is the death sauce in front of me? So, BamBam, where did you come up with that name? Flintstone. Did you? The Flintstone? Yeah. Really? My mom wanted me to be strong. That's so sweet. That's awesome. I didn't realize that nickname was from your mom. After my dad passed away, you know, like, four kids, one mom, you know, she's going to be really tired. Four kids, wow. So, you know, I want to escape from, like, reality. You know, that time. Because, you know, like, we have a, you know, my family have a hard time. I go to school. I'm not doing well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And everything, you know, dancing is, like, the thing that I can escape everything. Sure. Yeah. But, you know, like, even if we don't have so much money, you know, my mom still, like, find a way to send me to, like, a dancing school because I want to dance. Because I'm starting dancing, that's why I'm here right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She really full support me on everything. That's amazing. That's so cool. The rice ball looks perfect. Thank you so much. First taste of emergency room tteokbokki. Thank you for the food. Cheers. Mmm. Sweet. It's good. Yeah, that's good. Oh, that's good. Mmm. Just a little bit of heat. A little kick. No, that's not. Not really. That's no kick at all. That is spicy. No. You don't think there's any kick to that? Yeah. Wow. This is like Shin Ramyun. Okay. No. It's a bit spicier than Shin Ramyun. Really? For him, they're both at level zero. That's why they, that's why it's the same. So, I started dancing at nine. By the time you were ten years old, if I'm right, you were in Weezakoo. Oh, what? A dance group How do you know? with Lisa from Blackpink. How do you know? Yes. Yeah? Weezakoo. Oh my god. But still, I mean, that's so cool that you started from when you were ten. I mean, that's clearly must have been a passion for you. Well, you know, I have to do it that time because, you know, when we go to the battle, if we win, we earn some money. So, I feel like I can help my mom a little bit. You know what I mean? Yeah. And you remember meeting Lisa for the first time and like dancing together? Yes, I remember. I was really short. Really? Yes. I called her Luna because she was so tall. Really? You know what I mean? And then, right now, even I'm taller, I still call her Luna because I call her Luna for like the half of my life now. You know what I mean? Yeah. So, I just get used to it. I mean, it must be strange to think that you guys met all those years ago in a little dance group and now you're both K-pop stars. Two of the biggest bands in the world. It's more like a movie for me. I don't know why. Yeah. It feels like a film. I know. Somehow, it's just like, you know, you snap your finger and it's like, oh, we already debuted. It just happens. Yeah, of course. It just feels like time just goes so quickly. You want to try the spicy one? Yes. I really want to. No cheese in this one. Just for you. I'm actually really nervous about this. Really? I'm scared. You need to grab the bottom one. The one in the bottom? The one in the bottom. Okay. Really sauce covered. More sauce. Cheers. Let's try. Get involved. Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah, we hit the big leagues here. That's... Oh, my gosh. Bam. Bam, bam, bam. Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. That's a lot of bams. There's a lot of bams in there. Wow, that's... I think it's like a perfect kick. Okay. You came to Korea for the first time as a trainee. Yes. What was that like? You're sweating. It's a completely new country. Uh-huh. You hadn't been like a big world traveler when you were a kid. Yeah. Korea is my first country that I went beside Thailand. Wow. So, Korea, completely different culture. You didn't speak any Korean. I don't speak English that often. You don't speak... What? Oh, my gosh. What? You're just speaking Thai. Yeah, just Thai. I use body language. Okay. How did you survive that? What was that like? First, it was really nervous. What were you most... What were you most nervous about? Just everything, you know, because I don't speak any language. Of course, yeah. Communicating. They took me to the dorm for non-Korea training. You know what I mean? Oh, really? Over there, they have a guy from Chicago, a guy from LA, a guy from China, from Japan. Were you the only Thai? Yes. I'm the only Thai. Wow. So, you couldn't communicate at all with anyone at 13? Was it just the summers that you came over or was it full residential straight away? Oh, from then until now. Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What? From 13 until now? For my life, yeah. But you know, at least the good thing is everyone is really warm and welcoming at that time. Wow. That's really good. That's really important. Can I say, I love your positivity. Oh, really? I love it. Your song, Ribbon. Ribbon. It's a bit like that. You know, we're still doing GOT7. We're not this band. I want to let you guys know. But I have to start working on my solo stuff, right? Okay. Ribbon in Korean, if you say it, it's ribbon. Right. Which is the same the way you pronounce as a reborn. Okay. You understand. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it means I'm reborn. Okay. You know what I mean? K-pop, they love the deeper meanings. It's so positive. On the one hand, you could say rock bottom, starting again. On the other hand, you'd be like reborn. Super positive. New beginning. Sky's the limit. Yeah, exactly. I love it. But you know, when you keep eating it, I feel a little bit of spice now. Yeah, definitely. It's cumulative. So the rebirth, how's that gone for you? I mean, Ribbon was a big hit. Actually, in a way, it turned out better than what I thought. Yeah. I mean, that makes sense. I'm not gonna lie. Yeah. I love that. I thought I might stop at like 10 million views and like at much 10 million views, you know? Yeah, it's just a huge number still. Like for like the music chart all around the world, I feel like, okay, I might get number one in Thailand. But it turned out I got like more than like 60 country number one and then, you know, it gave me more confidence to working on my music more. I'm only working on GOT7 music and then they don't really know BAMBAM music, you know what I mean? Yeah. What were you trying to bring specifically that was coming from you to your solo music that was different from what you've done with GOT7? You know, I feel like GOT7 is like really like mature and sexy and, you know, like when you look like all the performance you're doing, all the black flip and everything, right? But then, for me, I just, I want people to feel the lyrics and then feel my song, you know what I mean? Like, Ribbon, when you listen to it, I want everyone to be happy. You know, even you have a hard time, you can reborn again whenever you want. If you success and then you work hard but you don't know how to enjoy and you don't have people around you, it's mean nothing. You know what I mean? I think that's like a really important message to remember to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Absolutely, yeah. Because we're not put on earth just to work hard and then you die. Like, that's not what life is about. I know you've done a lot of charity work. It's obviously a thing that's very important to you and I love that because you look and you're like, oh yeah, no, life is about more than just looking after yourself It's about, yeah, take care of the world and make the world a better place. Exactly. It's clear to see for you as well, you've been able to give back to some of your family and to your mom and I loved hearing about the story of how your mom was one of the reasons you got into K-pop in the first place. She's the strongest woman I've ever known. She's a big fan of P. P, Rain, yes. Took you to his concert. Have you met him now? Yes. And have you said thank you? He already know. He was like, oh, your mom's still my fan. I was like, oh, she moved on, bro. It's good that he didn't ask why because if he asked, I have an answer for that. Oh, what's the answer? Because, you know, he married and my mom feel like, oh, he like, like, betrayed me. A true K-pop fan. This is why you should be grateful you don't have a girlfriend. Okay, okay, okay. What kind of conversation is this? I like it, yeah. We're talking about everything. That's amazing. I like it, man. Do you have a last message you want to give to any of our fans? And then last but not least, 태국남자, coming soon. you heard it here first. 오늘은 여기까지. 안녕. Just want to say thank you to Every Days for making this content possible. Not only did they sponsor this episode, but they also sent us a ton of these cognac jellies which kept us going through all of these shoots here in Seoul. We have been saying these are great for ages, but especially this new flavor, Every Days with BT21 released a lychee flavor. It literally tastes like real lychee. It's so good. They've got all the characters on the front. Look at that. Who's your favorite, Josh? I mean, obviously RJ because he loves to eat. That's true. That's me. I mean, I like all of them because like me they have massive heads. Okay. But my favorite would probably be Shooky because he's a prankster. Great.
