'K-Pop Star 2' contestant�Bang Ye Dam�has officially signed with YG Entertainment.

Bang Ye Dam will be the second from the show to join the agency following Akdong Musician.�

YG Entertainment revealed that Bang Ye Dam and his parents showed interest in signing a contract with them, and all negotiations have now been completed. The young singer, who is just 12 years old, will be getting professional training.

The official post on YG LIFE�stated:�

"Many are worried that since BANG YE DAM is still young, his voice will change once he experiences puberty. But I have never heard of anyone whose musical talents were hindered because of the changes from puberty. So there is no need to worry!�

Unlike gold, diamond is a stone which value depends solely on how it is carved or cut. BANG YE DAM can be compared to diamond. The three judges on K-Pop Star, including myself, were left awe-struck when we discovered the diamonds in this singer. We knew that after much professional training, he would be of an immeasurable value.�

We cannot say for sure if that process would take one year or even ten years, but we can assure you all that we will spare no effort to help him shine like diamond."

Congratulations to Bang Ye Dam and YG Entertainment!
