In the year 2012, six aliens from the planet Mato (or B124AP22) went and decided to invade the planet Earth. The reason for this is that, Euk-ah bird – their source of energy, is facing danger. Therefore, this group of Mato warriors found an alternative source for it—that is the high-pitched scream of fangirls. On the guise of being an idol group, they debuted as B.A.P or also known as Best Absolute Perfect (Actually, BABYz claim the real meaning is: Best Absolute Pabo (lovingly)).

Over the years, they’ve captured the hearts of people. From Korea to International, they’ve exuded their charm.
So what made people love them? Here are few Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Sleep on B.A.P!
-
Because of who they are
On-stage they are portrayed to be bad-ass, the tough dudes that you shouldn’t mess with no matter what, but off-stage…
They’re a bunch of weird dorks that do idiotic things.
Hilarious without even trying, they know how to lighten up any situation. They show how lively they are, making jokes and sarcastic comments that are bundled with wit. B.A.P is that one group in school where everyone can feel comfortable because of how dorky they are.
But of course, another thing that made people want to stan them is the fact that they are very humble. They admitted themselves that the reason why B.A.P isn’t popular is because of them; hence they will work harder for their comeback.
B.A.P is that group that will make you fall for their personalities.

Love for fans
The interaction between B.A.P and fans is very astounding. It is quite evident how much they love their fans. Their fandom name, BABY, actually means, “Baby Always Behind You”, which means that B.A.P will always support their fans. In addition to that, that fandom name can also be used as a form of endearment.

Not only that, they would pretend in V-live that the camera is off and just talk about how much they love BABYz.

An example of that is when B.A.P showed gratitude when “#비에이피와_허니문“ (B.A.P_Honeymoon) trended in Korea.
Also, B.A.P actually sang a song that is dedicated to BABYz.
