B.A.P (Korean: 비에이피; an acronym for Best Absolute Perfect) is a six-member hip-hop South Korean boy band formed in 2012 under the management of TS Entertainment. The group consists of Bang Yong Guk, Kim Himchan, Jung Daehyun, Yoo Youngjae, Moon Jongup, and Zelo (Choi Junhong).
The members were introduced to public individually. First, it was Bang Yongguk (the leader) who was introduced in late 2011. He was featured in Secret's Song Jieun's song "Going Crazy". The second was Himchan who was the MC of MTV Korea's "The Show". The third was maknae (the youngest) Zelo who collaborated with fellow leader Bang Yongguk, forming a duo "Bang & Zelo". The 3 others were introduced later in B.A.P's first own variety show "Ta-Dah, It's B.A.P" which aired in SBS MTV. The other members are Daehyun, Youngjae, and Jongup.
On January 25, 2012, the group released their powerful and charismatic debut song "Warrior". Through "Warrior", B.A.P showed a tough, bad boy image by smashing car windows, kicking up dirt, and Yongguk & Zelo's satoori (dialect) raps. B.A.P held their debut showcase in Seoul on January 28, 2012.
Each B.A.P album had a rabbit on the cover. The mascot's name is
"Matoki," which is short for "Mask wearing Tokki" (tokki means rabbit in
Korean). On June 11, 2012, Matoki characters reflecting the personality of
each member was revealed on the mascot's Facebook.
Until now, they have released 4 EPs, 7 singles, and 6 music videos. Their released singles are "Warrior", "Secret Love", "Power", "Goodbye", "No Mercy", "Crash", and "Stop It".
