Former Treasure Member Bang Yedam Joins GF Entertainment, Paving a Path of Creative Exploration

Rising Star Transitions to New Chapter, Embracing Versatility in Music and Beyond

GF Entertainment


A new chapter unfolds for the prodigious talent Bang Yedam, previously an integral part of the acclaimed group Treasure, as he finds a new home at GF Entertainment. The agency, making the announcement on Thursday, expressed its steadfast commitment to nurturing Bang Yedam's multifaceted abilities, encompassing realms from music production to vocal prowess.

The artist's trajectory into the limelight commenced in 2013, casting a luminous spotlight on the young talent as he emerged as the runner-up in a prestigious audition show at the tender age of 11. A transformative journey under the tutelage of YG Entertainment ensued, culminating in his debut as an esteemed member of the boy band in 2018. However, his path took an unexpected turn in May of the preceding year, when he elected to suspend his group activities to delve into honing his prowess as a producer. This pivotal decision was the harbinger of his eventual departure from the band six months later, marked by the termination of his contract with the label.

Amidst this period of transition, Treasure underwent a transformative reshuffling, morphing into a 10-member powerhouse that unveiled its monumental second full album, aptly named "Reboot," just last month. The album's resounding impact manifested in sales soaring over an astonishing 1.7 million copies, a testament to the fervent following that the group commands. Notably, the album's lead single, the infectious "Bona Bona," ascended to the pinnacle of the iTunes top songs chart across a staggering 20 regions, underscoring the group's global resonance.

As Bang Yedam embarks on this fresh chapter under the stewardship of GF Entertainment, the promise of creative exploration and versatility shimmers on the horizon. The agency's unwavering commitment to nurturing his multifaceted talents paints an alluring portrait of what lies ahead. From his roots as a youthful aspirant to the precipice of musical ingenuity, Bang Yedam's journey symbolizes the ceaseless evolution of an artist, one poised to explore and redefine the boundaries of his artistry.
