Bang Yong Guk is a singer/rapper signed to TS Entertainment and is the leader of the popular rookie group B.A.P. He was first introduced to KPOP fans when he was featured in fellow label mate Song Ji Eun (from Secret) solo song, “Going Crazy.” The song wasn’t expected to receive much popularity due to its dark theme of a stalker ex-lover, but it proved otherwise when the song received an explosive amount of popularity. Through that popularity, Bang Yong Guk became one of the most searched and anticipated artist in 2011. Though he was still a trainee, his popularity has made him able to release his first single called ”I Remember” that features BEAST/B2ST‘s Yo Seob, and even made it in the top 10 in the Korean music charts shortly after it‘s release.
