GOT7 BamBam’s Surprise For LE SSERAFIM’s Sakura Shows His True Personality
GOT7‘s BamBam is known for being a social butterfly in the K-Pop industry. Aside from his group members, he’s close with Sandara Park, Stray Kids‘ Bang Chan, BLACKPINK‘s Lisa, Sorn, BTS‘s Jungkook, ASTRO’s Cha Eunwoo, and many more.
One of the latest idols to join BamBam’s circle of friends is LE SSERAFIM’s Sakura, who met BamBam when he appeared as the featured guest on her YouTube variety series Fearless Kkura. The two had great comedic chemistry and bonded over making carp bread. BamBam even promised to return to the show if Sakura decided to do a horror special!
To return the favor, Sakura appeared in BamBam’s new series Bam House as the first idol guest. It was only the second time the two had hung out, but their conversation was still comfortable and insightful.
As a gift for Sakura, BamBam spent his money to prepare a cake congratulating her for winning “Rookie Artist of the Year” at the 37th Golden Disc Awards. The surprise was meaningful and timely since Sakura had just received the award the previous day!
It was a touching moment from one idol to another. Despite having been a singer for over a decade, Sakura still viewed BamBam as her sunbaenim (the Korean word used to refer to a senior in the same professional industry), so his recognition of her effort and accomplishments was important.
BamBam’s thoughtful gift for Sakura proves his status as a social butterfly is well deserved! It showed that he’s a considerate person who tries to keep up with the activities of his friends and guests.
