For fans of one K-pop boy band, Nov. 27 is a day filled with a lot of meaning.
On that date last year, six-member B.A.P filed a contract nullification lawsuit against their agency, TS Entertainment. After almost a whole year filled with uncertainty regarding B.A.P's future, the two parties settled their differences.
Last week on the anniversary of the day that B.A.P had filed their lawsuit, the TS Entertainment group won their first ever award on KBS' "Music Bank" for their song, "Young, Wild & Free."
B.A.P competed against Dynamic Duo, who had recently released the song, "Jam."
"Young, Wild & Free" is B.A.P's first single since the group returned to the scene following coming to terms with their agency. The song is off of their newest album, "Matrix."
After winning at "Music Bank," the B.A.P members thanked their fans, agency, stylists, and managers before performing an encore version of "Young, Wild & Free."
B.A.P's leader produced all of the tracks on B.A.P's "Matrix" album ahead of their comeback to the scene.
The "Music Bank" win is B.A.P's first weekly award show win since returning to the scene following their lawsuit.
The group debuted under TS Entertainment in 2012 with the album "Warrior." "Matrix" is B.A.P's fourth EP to date, along with numerous single albums and one studio album, 2014's "First Sensibility."
