GOT7’s Bam Bam, Mark greet fans in Milan

GOT7 members Bam Bam and Mark turned on the V app in Milan, Italy, to give fans an update on what they were up to.

“We came here for the Fashion Week. For Zegna. The show happens today. We just now went to the shop and picked some clothes and now we are here for lunch,” said Bam Bam, the Thai member of the seven-piece act.

The livestream lasted for only about four minutes because of a poor internet connection.

“WiFi is Korea,” Mark said, complaining about the connection in Milan.

“Where is Jackson?” Bam Bam asked, reading out a question from viewers.

“He’s coming later. One or two days later.”

“We gotta go. See you guys later,” he said at the end of the broadcast.

According to Source Music, the act’s label, the song is about love, with a lover compared to the bright sun that one cannot get close to.

The upcoming album, “Time for Us,” contains 13 tracks.

The Boyz’ Younghoon appears solo on V

The Boyz member Younghoon aired a solo V Live broadcast on Friday night.

“Actually, I had a big dinner. I am full but I couldn’t resist an opportunity to air a ‘honbbang’ V Live,” he said. By “honbbang,” he seemed to mean a solo live eating show over a loaf of bread. (“Honja” is the Korean word for “alone,” while “bbang” means “bread.”)

While Younghoon was chatting with fans on a variety of topics, from his food preferences to the hair color he wanted to try, bandmate Eric turned up.

“I saw you doing V Live with my phone. I came here for the bread. I am hungry,” he said, eating a leftover piece.
