BANG YE DAM of YG ‘TREASURE’ Reveals Cover Video of ‘HONESTY’, “A Perfect Attraction”
[OSEN=이승훈 기자] BANG YE DAM of YG’s rookie group TREASURE presented a perfect attraction through his well-known vocal tone and skills.
On February 15 at 12 PM, YG Entertainment uploaded BANG YE DAM’s cover video through their official blog and TREASURE’s social media channels.
BANG YE DAM covered ‘HONESTY’ by Pink Sweats, an American R&B artist. BANG YE DAM’s unique soulful voice grabbed the listeners’ ears in an instant from the first verse. His unique emotions clear enough to separate his cover from the original song filled up the mic and camera.
Furthermore, BANG YE DAM wrote the Korean lyrics newly added to the flow of the original song himself. He expressed a man’s feelings of wanting to be more cautious towards a woman who wants to confirm his love.
YG put meaning to this by explaining, “BANG YE DAM did not only show off his vocal skills, but also played a huge role in turning the song into a piece of work containing his own identity”.
BANG YE DAM has teased part of the song during the first episode of ‘TMI’, TREASURE’s reality program, after choosing Pink Sweats’ ‘HONESTY’ as the song he recently listened to the most. The fans looked forward to listening to the full version of BANG YE DAM’s ‘HONESTY’, which allowed him to reveal his own cover video.
After winning second place on ‘K-Pop Star Season 2’ back in 2013, BANG YE DAM became a trainee of YG using his unrivaled musical talents and crafted his skills for the past 6 years. He grew up to be an all-around artist as a result and is receiving a lot of attention from the public and fans.
TREASURE, the group BANG YE DAM is part of, began their full-scale debut project and is meeting the public through various contents. TREASURE’s contents include their performance film of ‘Going Crazy’, which is receiving a lot of favorable reviews from global fans, ‘TREASURE MAP’ which shows the 12 members challenge on becoming creators themselves, and ‘TMI’ which covers the behind stories of TREASURE’s official schedules.
