GOT7’s BamBam‘s late-night Instagram update has caused concerns among fans. While they wondered what happened to him, the Thai rapper artist later posted a clarification about “pressure and stress” and how that has impacted his overall health.
BamBam signed with Abyss Company after his contract with JYP Entertainment ended in 2021. Since then, the 27-year-old K-pop icon has released a studio album, two extended plays, and a world tour.
BamBam has been working hard and often talked about wanting to rest on social media. When fans suggested he take some weeks off, BamBam once replied (originally in Korean), “If they let me.” With a comeback inching closer, artists often must engage in various promotional content. They are also required to practice the dance routines and songs of the comeback album. As such, fans were sympathetic towards BamBam’s condition, pouring supportive messages on the singer.
