It all started with a few impromptu jam sessions between neighborhood friends, soon becoming a real and regular thing as their focus shifted from preparing to enter college as applied music majors to realizing that “hey, we’re actually pretty good together.” Soon enough, frontman Jung Bong Gil gave the team an official name, after a famous Stone Roses song, and Bye Bye Badman was born. These five young musicians, now all in their early 20s, bring in many elements of England’s music style of the 90s, which explains why music lovers call the band a Korean incarnation of British rock n’ roll and Brit-pop. The danceable “She Don’t Know” was their first taste of success, as buzz around Bye Bye Badman’s live performances in Hongdae clubs and cafes spread through word of mouth. In November 2011, the band released their first full-length album, Light Beside You and finished out the year with a handful of Rookie of the Year honors and festival appearances. - MTV

Bio
BYE BYE BADMAN were debut in 2010 when they were only 20 years old.
They were nominated for a series of rock festivals and awards, like a 'Rock and Roll Superstar' in 2010 Valley Rock Festival, a 2011 EBS Hello Rookie, 'rookie of the year' in the Korea Music Award, the 32nd artist of Naver-Onstage, and a rising indie-star of Daum-music.
BYE BYE BADMAN is still a kind of dream for a lot of young people who want to organize their bands. Their music has a marked individuality based on 80’s British rock. And this is the reason why a lot of media and fashion editors have been crazed about them throughout Asia.
BYE BYE BADMAN called the "icon of spirit", self-produced their second EP Album [Because I Want To] of May in 2013. They are still the the most sought-after musician for various rock festivals in Korea.
