Former B.A.P's Bang Yongguk released a heartbreaking documentary and no media outlets picked it up (TS Ent is shit)

he (and B.A.P as whole) deserve so so much better. this is sad considering how successful they are during their early days and how talented they are

well, a company wont be a trash itself, it becomes trash because managed by some trash humans..(wait...are they even deserved to be called human?)

I'm glad and happy that Yongguk and the rest B.A.P members left..

B.A.P members said Yongguk got a lot brighter and talkative after discharged from his military enlistment. (Yongguk says he's still B.A.P leader ~tears~ )

-everything gonna be alright-

For those who don't know B.A.P, please check their discography, it's so good, and their solo albums after left TS.

This is why I hate it when kpop fans glorify the struggles of idols debuting in a small company and carrying it on their shoulders. That thought is horrifying to me, companies that can't provide the bare minimum of dignified living conditions, can't provide training facilities proper lodging should NOT exist. It's not on the idols to carry that struggle and then slave away for years unpaid until the company makes money. Only companies that can provide all I mentioned above as well as pay their idols for their work should be allowed to take trainees in. If you're not up to the risk then don't take it, why should the idols be the ones to carry the burden of the risk until it works out? That's exactly what BAP were subjected to and look at the result of that.

Wait hold the phone, didn't they all leave ts ent.???

Thank you for this, subscribed to his channel. Love this man.

It’s fantastic!

Even if it’s a couple of years old.

I make documentaries (indy) and this is amazing.

Watch me make one about Exo🥺

I just posted about BYGs documentary last week, and yes it does have CC. Also this documentary was released for mainly international fans who havent yet seen it, it was released locally in 2019 in Korea when he debuted his solo album.

He is an old news, which is why no one is really interested in his story. He might have to try trot.

LOL, now I wanna see Yongguk do trot

Kim Hojung, who has a lot of history behind him (most of them bad), trained as a tenor but became a trottist.

Yongguk should try trot when there are still some fans who still remember him.

Yes a trot song with IU, it would be fantastic.

I need to check out his solo stuff

In B.A.P.'s case it was even worse as we know. TS Ent. was doing good with GG „Secret“ and BG „BAP“. Even solo collabs between the two groups (Yongguk with Jieun) topped the Korean Charts. But the company became greedy and still didn’t pay them… TShit was the worst!

Minazuki I guess you might get interested too.
