B.A.P (Korean: 비에이피; an acronym for Best Absolute Perfect) is a South Korean boy band formed by TS Entertainment. The group, originally consisting of Yongguk, Himchan, Daehyun, Youngjae, Jong-up, and Zelo made its debut with the single "Warrior" on January 26, 2012.

B.A.P quietly disbanded on February 18, 2019, following the group's contract expiration with TS Entertainment.[3] In 2024, the group officially reunited under the name Bang & Jung & Yoo & Moon to release their next album, Curtain Call in August. Members Zelo and Himchan will not be included in the comeback as a result of Zelo's military service and Himchan's sexual assault allegations.[4]
