If ever, the music festival will be BamBam’s third time in the Philippines. The K-pop idol’s first visit was in October 2019 for GOT7’s “Keep Spinning” world tour. In July 2022, he returned as a solo artist for fansign events in Manila and Cebu and the “2022 K-pop Masterz” concert.
Born as Kunpimook Bhuwakul, BamBam debuted as a member of the seven-member K-pop boy group GOT7 in January 2014. He also debuted as a solo artist with his first mini album “riBBon” in June 2021. EDV
