Netizens commented, “The combination of Bang Yong Guk’s low rapping and Yang Yoseob’s voice is fantastic”, “They’re an amazing combination”, and “I’d love to hear this live.”
It’s rare for a trainee to gain such buzz before his debut, but rapper Bang Yong Guk managed to ensnare everyone’s attention after his phenomenal collaboration with SECRET’s Song Ji Eun for her solo track, “Going Crazy” earlier this year.
Now he’s ready to take off with a powerful track of his own called “I Remember“. Featuring vocals fromB2ST’s Yang Yoseob and co-produced with One Way’s Chance, Bang Yong Guk impresses with his deep lyrics and mature sound.
