I may miss a few details but this is what I remember off the top of my head:
- They had that Party Baby World tour in 2017 right? I don’t remember when exactly in 2017 but that was that.
- Himchan got better from his injury during Rose Era.
- Between March and September (I can’t rememberr which), Daehyun and Jongup released a joint album under TS titled Daehyun X Jongup. They both promoted their solo songs separately. Daehyun’s was Shadow, Jongup’s was Try My Luck.
- I don’t remember which months of 2017 (tbh I don’t even remember if the last one was already in 2018), but during a span of several months, Yongguk released 3 solo songs with MVs on his channel.
- They are: Yamazaki, Portrait, and Drunkenness. Yamazaki and Portrait are new songs that he released with their own MVs, but I think Drunkenness was a song he already released back before? Not sure. But the MV came out pretty recently. They’re all available (I think) at Yongguk’s channel, where he uploaded AM 4:44 a few years ago.
By September they released a single album, BLUE, the last in their color series. OT6 Promoting!
- Tracks are: All The Way Up, Honeymoon (this is the title track), and Rewind.
- December they had another single album, EGO.
- Tracks are: Hands Up (this is the title track), Moondance, and Think Hole.
- In Feb/March of 2018, the members went ‘missing’ for a few days. I say missing because their social media presence was basically ziltch. I think there was a hashtag of Where Are You? What Are You Doing? or something like that.
- A few months later, it was revealed that they were filming a variety show, titled Untact. It was released a few weeks/months later. The concept of the show was un-contact; basically, the members were brought to an island where they had no access to certain everyday things humans have gotten used to in modern times. Mostly electronics and pre-prepared food. They had a refigerator and stove at the house they stayed at, but I think there was only enough gas for one meal, which they used up. From then on, they had to use wood and make a fire until Youngjae found a burner somewhere. They also had no modern toilet. There was some hole in the ground that served that purpose.
- Its worth noting that what resonated the most to any BABY was the fact that Himchan was the most capable and amazing badass throughout the show. He would take charge with cooking, did woodwork to make a toilet seat while the other members were sleeping, go out to look for food with the other members, build a fire and keep it going so they could cook, urged the members to make a tent when it rained, was the one who made a proper support for said tent...yeah, basically if BAP were ever stuck in the Hunger Games, aside from all the killing part, Himchan would be the one to survive.
-Jongup is a co-owner of a fashion line, I think??? The exact title he has and the exact category of the fashion line/clothing store thingy I honestly can’t remember. You might have to search it up: Triple 9.
- They had a the LIMITED Tour in 2018, tho I don’t remember if it was a world tour or whatever. But I do know that they performed in Taipei and their last stop was back in Seoul I think.
- BAP will have another variety show titled TRAINCE. I can’t remember all the details, but its about this virtual reality game. It’s also like a coverage thingy of their LIMITED tour??? The first episode has been released and english subbed somewhere on Youtube.
- If I recall correctly, the Seoul concert was split into two consecutive nights. During the first night’s concert, a bit sometime before it ended, the members opened up to the fans to say that this may be their last concert together as 6. This is because their contracts are expiring at different dates. They assured fans that they still have some time left and that they would always remain as 6.
- less than a week later, it was revealed that Yongguk’s contract had about 2 months left before it expired.
- At the time Yongguk’s contract did expire, sometime in August I think, it was revealed that he had decided not to renew his contract with TS. B.A.P would continue to promote as 5 members (according to TS; BAP and BABYZ all know the truth xD)
- The remaining members have an American and European tour before 2018 ends. I think both are titled Forever? Not sure. I’m not that updated on this because I’m not from there. But obviously everyone’s gearing up for it.
- Just last week, TS announced that BAP would have a special album of sorts, Recollection, that is four of the maknae line’s solo songs. Its just been released yesterday, Nov. 4.
- Songs are: Stay With Me (Youngjae ft. Zelo), Annoying (Jongup ft. Zelo), Howler (Zelo), and I’m Happy (Youngjae). I think Jongup’s Annoying was performed in one of the LIMITED concerts, same with Youngjae’s Stay With Me. Zelo had released Howler sometime ago (I think December of 2017? Not sure on this tho) on his Soundcloud. Youngjae’s I’m Happy, I believe, was a song not known to be in the making until the tracklist of this album came out.
AAAAAANDD That’s all I can remember within the span of my lunch break xD There’s a few more, I can think of, so DM me if there’s anything else :)
