He attempted to reassure fans with a follow-up post. However, many Ahgas (also known as iGOT7, GOT7 fans) were extremely worried about BamBam afterward.
It’s been a long journey from last year to now and there’s still a long way to go.
There was a lot of pressure and stress and my body hadn’t felt this good for a long time now.
Sometimes I get sensitive and emotional.
I will do my best this year and find time to rest.
I’ll be fine.
I’m sorry if I caused any concern.
Good day.
— Bam-Bam
The worries didn’t end there either. BamBam has been on his own recently 2024 [BAMESIS] SHOWCASE TOUR. During his concert in Manila last month, BamBam gave a speech to the Ahgases that left them heartbroken. He confessed that he is increasingly unhappy these days.
I have a feeling that the more you grow up, the more the happy days… get fewer… I have to say I feel more unhappy than happy these days… I just want to be honest because you guys are the only people I can talk to. You guys are the only people I can lean on. That’s why I really wanted to express my feelings to you.
— Bam-Bam
However, BamBam asked Ahgases to be happy even when he couldn’t be. He acknowledged that he has a lot on his mind and Ahgases helps cheer him up.
If this world won’t let me be so happy, at least I want to give you my energy, so you can all be happier. So, Ahgase, please, at least for me, please be happy for me, okay? And then one day… maybe when I need that energy, please, you can cheer me up and be there for me, so thank you. I won’t cry, I won’t cry. …I have a lot of things on my mind right now, but every time, the only place I feel free and happy these days is meeting you on the stage… so the stage is like a playground for me Right now. When I’m alone, I think a lot, so I appreciate you guys coming here and having fun with me.
