[interview] 130810 - b.a.p, reveal episodes from the u.s “found a corpse at the ‘badman’ music video location?” The group, B.A.P, revealed episodes about their performances and music video recordings in America. B.A.P revealed many events that happened while they were in the U.S during a recent interview held at Asia Today’s office. While holding their Pacific tour in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Washington, and New York, they were also filming music videos for their title songs, ‘Coffee Shop’ and ‘Hurricane’. Continuing from this, they filmed their music videos for ‘Hurricane’ and ‘BADMAN’ in Las Vegas and Detroit. The members started out by talking about the troubles they had with the food that didn’t fit their tastes. Although the members were all happy at first to eat hamburgers as a daily meal which didn’t happen often in Korea, they got tired of that lifestyle for half a month and thought they couldn’t eat any more. Daehyun revealed, “We had a lot of anticipation because we heard there were famous hamburgers for each city. From San Francisco’s ‘In-and-Out’ burger to New york’s ‘Shake Shack’ burger, they were all very tasty. However, after a couple of days passed, it was to the point where we would get heartburn just from hearing hamburgers or pizza. Jongup was the only one who continuously wanted hamburgers.” To this, Jongup showed a proud expression and said, “Because I usually like hamburgers, I had no problem with this. If someone told me to keep eating hamburgers for a couple of months, I think I could.” There was a story behind their music video filming that caused confusion. Zelo explained, "We filmed the music video for ‘Hurricane’ at a street in Las Vegas, but suddenly a random Western woman came in and danced with us. As the director yelled ‘cut’, she actually seemed surprised and asked what the problem was. Turns out, that person thought we were just dancing and playing with our music turned on, and wanted to join in.” Himchan added, “For ‘Hurricane’, the choreography wasn’t pre-planned, and it was just filmed with the members having fun at the scene. Also, I think that kind of misunderstanding was formed because we were near a casino.” Meanwhile, Detroit, the music video location for ‘BADMAN’, gave a chilling experience to B.A.P. At the location that was set for their music video filming, there was a corpse found a day before the members came. It’s also known that Detroit is a city with the highest crime rate in America. The members reminisced their memories by saying, “Since Detroit is a bankrupt city, there are a lot of abandoned buildings, but not a lot of people. The building that we filmed at had bullet marks and turf fight remains from the gangs of that location, so it was scary and fascinating. It was a completely different feel from the sets created in Korea. Thankfully, we were able to do the filming safely because there were people protecting us.” Meanwhile, B.A.P are currently having active promotions after releasing their mini album, ‘BADMAN’, on the 6th. trans. cr; akdongs @ tumblr | source cr; asia today ; take out with full credits (DO NOT REPOST, DO NOT EDIT CREDITS) ~Fina~
