After dropping the MV teaser for Killing me and album information YGE continues with individual teasers and we got amazing looking Bobby with vivid blue hair telling us to come hither.
It started with a whimsical Birthday wish by a 6 year old from an extraordinary family; and by extraordinary I mean the famous #TeamKramer of the Philippines consisting of a Basketball Player Dad, an Actress Mom and three spunky and adorable kids who as a family have become social media darlings of the the Philippines with a following in the millions!
Earlier today young Scarlett Kramer informed her parents over dinner that she wanted iKON’s Bobby to perform at her 7th birthday party. It was not an odd request as before now the family have proven to be huge fans of iKON’s music and the children have been known to rock out with their parents to Bling Bling on their morning school runs – talk about motivational music! Love Scenario, iKON’s most recent mega hit, has also received a lot of love from them.

When Scarlett made her request, like a true fan she was specific about the song, asking for “Saranghae” (I Love You) the title track off Bobby’s 2017 first solo album, “Love and Fall.”
Rather than laugh off her request her parents took to social media to make a heartfelt request to Bobby to come to the Philippines and perform at their daughter’s 7th Birthday. In the same video Scarlet shed cute tears to prove her conviction and Team Kramer fans were asked to help the message go viral so it would reach Bobby in South Korea.
If the little Scarlett’s tears were not enough to move your stony heart then prepare yourselves as the story grows even more heart warming. Not even up to an hour later Bobby’s put a message up on Instagram Live! It was his response to Scarlett! In it he sings her a birthday song personally with the help of fellow iKON member Donghyuk and sends her heartfelt birthday wishes!
As you can imagine the family of fans were besides themselves with shock and delight that reverberated throughout the iKONIC fandom! Everyone experienced the duality of well wishing and envy of that sweet little girl who got Bobby’s personal birthday wish!
The happy go lucky family was quick to record a response from the kids thanking Bobby and sending love!
Finally as if to prove the cultural relevance of this special family the entire thing was reported almost immediately by ABS-CBN News, one of the biggest TV Networks/News portals in the Philippines.
And so the sweetest little drama began and ended in less than an hour and one is left wondering along with Pinoy iKONICs if this could be the start of a real push to finally see iKON perform in the Philippines. If such a dream could come true we already know which famous family will be in the front row!
I wasn’t crying while typing this you were.

We can only guess that Hanbin, Yunhyeong and Chanwoo are out there filming as well.
Is it for iKON TV? We certainly hope so.
iKON has been in and out of radio shows since the release of their new full album ‘Return’. This time it was Bobby’s turn, to guest on MBC Radio Star on Wednesday 21st, at 11:10PM KST.
Bobby talked about a variety of issues (while dodging some bullets, too) including the music he wishes to make, dating and his ideal type, and his current hobbies. He also sang part of the song ‘For You’ by ‘Yim Jaebeom’.
“there are music i want to. it can be strong music as a rapper, as a soloist or music i want to speak out about. but thats not always possible because i am an idol. but i am not saying that iKON’s music is not “my music” because it is! but sometimes i want to do my unique music”

“in the past, i used to be really straightforward dating wise, if i see someone i like, i would just go up to them and say ‘hey, u wanna hit some coffee?’”
— KATE (@k8indaeyo) February 21, 2018
“i like somebody that has strong passion for what they do”
mc: how about what they look like?
bobby: umm somebody confident and sexy!

“theres nothing that i really want to do right now. im trying to find something, maybe traveling”

bobby: “actually one member went to okinawa”
cha taehyun: OKEY OKEY OKINAWA

Bobby was warm, forthright, sincere and disarmingly honest even when questions asked were especially difficult. iKONICs felt pride for how well he handled himself and even non-fans remarked on his good attitude. You can read the reaction of a non-iKONIC on the thread below.
“I was watching RS & Bobby-nim… I like (BB) it looks like he has a pretty heart (kind). Felt this bc there’re ppl who did sth else when some1’s saying sth uninteresting but he paid full attention till the very end & looked at the person speaking, giving responses while nodding” pic.twitter.com/Yz4hbfxYs0

On February 8th, the news was released that iKON’s Bobby has finished filming for MBC talk-show ‘Radio Star’, alongside fellow names such as Lee Kikwang, San-E, and Park Song Wang.
The filming has said to be finished on the 7th of February.
The show, hosted by Kim Gook Jin, Yoon Jong Shin, Kim Gura and Cha Tae Hyun, often involves several guests and frequently invites idols to join the panel.
It has been said that Bobby and the other guests showed individuality through their talks, with Kikwang and himself also sharing some “behind-the-scenes” about idol life.
The four finished filming for Radio Star on the 7th. They all shared their stories amidst laughs and showed their individuality freely. It seems that Bobby and Lee Kikwang will reveal the behind the scenes stories as male idols that had previously gone unspoken. pic.twitter.com/NhGMPeT4Zv

It was announced today that iKON’s rappers Kim Hanbin and Kim Bobby will be special MCs on February 3, Music Core together with RED VELVET’s Yeri.
This is the first time since debut that any member of iKON will be a music show MC.
It seems that iKON’s first venture into world of emcees had garnered a lot of interest.
Both iKON and RED VELVET have had successful comebacks this past weeks and are competing for no.1 place on various music charts. However, many of their fans have interpreted this competition as cute interaction and were hoping for groups to interact in real life as well and not only on charts. Music Core is making their wish a reality.
For the promotion of their new album, Return, iKON has promised to have many activities in Korea as compared to their usual promotion cycles. From recent announcements like these it seems they have every intention of keeping their promise.
