'''BNK48''' (short for '''B'''a'''n'''g'''k'''ok48) is a Thai idol group and the 2nd international sister group of [[AKB48]]. The 1st generation members were announced on February 12, 2017. The group has their own [[BNK48 Theater|theater]] in '''The Mall Bangkapi''', on Bangkok, Thailand. 

==Overview==
* The official announcement of the formation of the group was made in 2016 at [[Shuku Takahashi Minami Graduation "148.5cm no Mita Yume" in Yokohama Stadium]] concert. However, previously in 2012 [[Akimoto Yasushi]] mentioned in an interview with GQ JAPAN that he was considering "Bangkok 48" after creating [[JKT48]].
** On September 23, 2016, it was announced that 80 selected applicants would proceed to the final round of the 1st Generation members’ audition.
** On October 13, due to the death of [[Wikipedia:Bhumibol Adulyadej|King Bhumibol Adulyadej]], the final selection for the 1st Generation members was postponed until December 18.
* BNK48's logo features the orchid color (a bright rich purple), since the orchid flower is popular in Thailand.
* The group is also known as "Bī xĕn khefor̒ tī xet" (บีเอ็นเคโฟร์ตีเอต), which is their name in Thai.
* Since June 2, 2017 their current group captain is [[Cherprang Areekul]].

===Differences from sister groups===
* Each member of the group is subject to a six-year contract that can be renewed.
* They are the first [[AKB48 Group]] outside Japan to have their own local sister group, [[CGM48]].
