SELF-INTRODUCTION
Hello. It's JB. My real name is Im Jae Bum. I am the leader and vocalist in the group, and as a bonus, I represent the chic image. ^^ I came in 1st place at the JYP Open Audition in 2009!! I came in that way, went into the public eye before the others did through 'Dream High 2,' and released an album under JJ Project for a total of four years of preparation. I hope we become a team that wins until the very end by taking care of one another, helping one another, and leading each other well despite areas that may be lacking. I also hope we get along well like a family all the time! We hope you watch GOT7 closely!
