Bamby, a member of the virtual idol group PLAVE, has passed the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) N2 level with extraordinary fighting spirit.

During a live broadcast on PLAVE's official YouTube channel on the 2nd, Bamby announced the news of his JLPT N2 certification, saying, "I prepared secretly because I wanted to surprise you."

Amid congratulations from members and fans, Bamby attracted attention by confessing a shocking "exam jinx" hidden behind the joy of passing. Following his revelation that "during the N3 exam, I cut my head while cleaning and took the exam after getting three stitches," he confessed, "For this N2 exam, I had stomach cramps the day before and went to the emergency room three times."

Bamby revealed that at the time, to hide his illness from the members, he even sent a playful photo looking like he was crying tears of blood using ketchup, evoking both laughter and sympathy. The members applauded his efforts, saying, "We didn't know he was preparing so sensitively," and "That's really amazing."

Fans are also sending enthusiastic support, reacting with comments such as, "Didn't he risk his life to take the exam?", "It's amazing that he passed even while being sick," and "Bamby's efforts have shone through."
