The GOT7 member is also known to talk about her when chatting with other stars, like in his recent episodes of Bam House. In his episode with SHINee‘s Key, he asked for tips on how to get her to appear as a guest.
Bambam & Key talking about Taeyeon in Bam's House cut.
Bambam said Taeyeon is the ultimate goal of the show then Key gave tips to Bambam on how to invite her. Also, Bambam's reaction is so funny when Key told her that Taeyeon knows about Bam's House 😂 pic.twitter.com/bUJpTQVIk3

Sunmi also brought her up in the newest episode, asking BamBam who his ideal type was before remembering that he previously said Taeyeon.
In addition to explaining how Taeyeon became his ideal type, he mentions that her appearance on the show would be his greatest gift.
After this episode, some netizens found issues with BamBam talking about Taeyeon so often. One also referenced an incident earlier this year when the star came under fire for comments about NewJeans‘s Hyerin, which BamBam has since clarified.
BamBam directly replied to the tweet, explaining that he admired Taeyeon and asked fans not to hate him.
When some of BamBam’s fans had less than kind responses to the hate, the star requested that fans “watch their words.” He followed up by saying that while he knew he couldn’t please everyone, he did not want to upset people.
