Lee Yong-jin comments, “GOT7’s BamBam is not recognized in Korea”

GOT7's BamBam revealed an anecdote about his experience with fame.

On the 23rd, a new video was uploaded on the YouTube channel 'Yongjinho Health Center' with the title 'Deceitful behavior of BamBam, who has 17 million followers and is not well known?'

In the released video, BamBam said, "I'm feeling a little better, but earlier, while I was waiting outside, a lady passed by and said, 'Oh, isn't that DinDin?'"

BamBam said, “I received a call from Louis Vuitton’s Paris headquarters after I left Las Vegas.” He also said, "I had to go to France today. I was going to represent Thailand. If I go, I could become an ambassador, and there was a possibility, but 'Ras' also came in. After much consideration, I chose 'Ras'."

Regarding domestic recognition, Lee Yong-jin said, "I didn't do 'Transit Love' with BamBam. What surprised me was that at the time, the number of followers was over 10 million, but they said, 'I'm not recognized in Korea.' I wonder if it's gotten a little better now."

BamBam commented, “It’s a little better, but when I was waiting outside earlier, a lady passed by saying, ‘Huh? Isn’t that DinDin?’ I need to work harder.”

Lee Jin-ho, who heard this, said, "Adults usually get their names wrong. I just told them because I knew who it was. Since their name has two letters, I said 'DinDin'."

Meanwhile, BamBam will release his full-length album 'Sour & Sweet' through various music sites at 6 PM on the 28th.
