2PM (Hangul: ) is a South Korean idol

group managed by JYP Entertainment. The current
members are Jun. K (formerly known as
Junsu),Nichkhun, Taecyeon, Wooyoung, Junho and
Chansung. Former leader Jay Park officially left the
group in early 2010.
The members of 2PM started when Korean musician
Park Jin Young formed an eleven-member band
known as One Day. Eventually the band was split

into 2PM, and a similar but independent group

known as 2AM. 2PM debuted with the song "10
Jeom Manjeome 10 Jeom" (10 10, lit. 10
Points Out of 10 Points), which showcased their
acrobatic dance styles.[1] They achieved their first
Number 1 single with "Again & Again". Both singles
featured on their first studio album, The First Album
1:59PM, released in 2009. The band went on to
release another Korean album, known as Hands Up,
in 2011. They made their Japanese debut later that
year with Republic of 2PM. After more than a year,
the group returned in 2013 with their third studio
album Grown. In early September 2014, 2PM
returned with their 4th studio album "Go Crazy" with
their title track composed by fellow member Jun. K.
The album was released on 15 September. The
music video was released on 10 September. They
made their comeback stage at m!countdown on 11
September.

History

[edit]

Pre-debut[edit]
The members of 2PM all auditioned
(except Nichkhun, who was scouted)[2] to become

part of JYP Entertainment. Some members already

had experience in the entertainment industry,
including Jun. K, who had won several singing
competitions.[citation needed] Ok Taecyeon, Lee
Junho and Hwang Chansung had participated in the
show SuperStar Survival.[citation needed] Part of the
members had previously lived in the U.S., exleader Jaebeom in
the Seattle area,Nichkhun in Southern California,
while Taecyeon spent seven years
in Massachusetts before returning to Korea.
Originally, the members of 2PM were part of a larger
group known as One Day. A documentary called Hot
Blood Mencaptured the group's training days. In this
documentary, former member Jaebeom finished at
the top spot and received the most fan votes. It also
featured the elimination of three trainees from the
group: Lee Swichi, Im Daehun, and Yoon Doojoon were all cut.
By the end of the training process, One Day had
been reduced to an eleven-member group.
However, the band was then split into 2AM and
2PM.

Debut and controversy (200809)[edit]

While most Korean boy bands at the time adopted a
"pretty boy" (Korean:kkonminam) image, 2PM

constructed a tough and macho beast-like image

when they made their debut.[3][4] By emphasizing their
masculine images, 2PM created the "jimseung-dol"
(jimseung means an animal or beast in Korean)
phenomenon in 2008.[4]
Jaebeom was chosen to serve as the group's leader,
as he was the oldest member and also the one
where all the members acknowledged as the most
talented one. He played key roles in several of the
band's early singles and associated music videos.
2PM debuted with their single "10 Out of 10" (10
10) on 4 September 2008. In October
2008, they began to promote "Only You", another
song from their debut mini album, Hottest Time of
the Day.
In April 2009, the group released their second mini
album, 2:00PM Time For Change, which they began
promoting that month. In May they won their first
Mutizen Song award on M!Countdown, followed by
two more and a Music Bank award. On 11 June,
2PM began promotions for "Niga Mipda" ( ,
lit. I Hate You) on M!Countdown. In July 2PM
achieved first place on the M!Countdown and Music
Bank charts for the song "Niga Mipda". On 30 July,
2PM won the 'Only One Song' award
on M!Countdown.

Later that year a controversy

regarding Jaebeom emerged. On 4 September
2009, articles surfaced on the internet
regarding Jaebeom's posts from 2005 on his
personal Myspace account, in which he expressed
his dislike for Korea while still a trainee for JYP
Entertainment. These posts, leaked by a netizen
who hacked his Myspace account, were taken out of
context and severely misinterpreted by the Korean
media.[5] Jaebeom issued an apology regarding this
matter.[6] Although some demanded that Jaebeom
should be forced out of 2PM, JYP Entertainment
CEO Park Jin-young stated on 7 September lent the
singer a vote of confidence, suggesting that he
would remain in the group.[7] Yet the following
day,Jaebeom announced on his official fancafe that
he would leave the group and return to the United
States for a while to calm the situation. He planned
to return to school and improve his understanding of
music. At the same time, he apologized to his fellow
band members for not being a good leader and older
brother for them. He also promised to come back as
a better person.[8] Park Jin-young confirmed that
2PM would continue on as a six-member
group.[9][10] Due to the sensitive topic of Jaebeom's
departure, 2PM withdrew for several weeks from
their appearances on variety shows.[11]

01:59PM and rise to prominence (2009

10)[edit]

2PM at press conference in Bangkok, in February 2009

Despite the controversy, the group went ahead with

release of its first studio album. Known as 01:59PM,
the album was released on 10 November
2009.[12] Yet questions about Jaebeom remained.
The day after the album's release, Park Jin-young
announced that Jaebeom could return to 2PM if he
wished to make a comeback, although the singer's
return was not imminent.[13][14] In support of Jaebeom,
the six 2PM members decided to equally split their
income from their first album with him.[15] The album
included tracks voiced by Jaebeom, although his
face was excluded from the cover.[16] The group
finished re-filming their music video for "Heartbeat",
the title song, without Jaebeom in October 2009.
Both the album and title track, "Heartbeat," quickly
rose to the number one position on multiple music
sales charts.[17] The group began promotional
activities for the album on a variety of music shows,
including M.Net O Good Concert,[18] KBS Music

Bank, MBC Music Core and SBSInkigayo in

November 2009.
A week and a half after the album's release, 2PM
performed at and was honored at the M.net Asian
Music Awards with awards for Best Male Group and
Artist of the Year (the latter being one of the three
most prestigious awards at the show).[19] The group
paid homage to Jaebeom during their performance
of "Again & Again". During the performance, a
spotlight shone over Jaebeom's usual position in the
dance formation, and his vocals played over the
speakers without being replaced.[20]
In late November 2009, after two weeks of
promotional activities for the 1:59PM, 2PM earned
their first #1 on a TV music show (KBS Music Bank's
"K-Chart") since the album's release, with
"Heartbeat",[21] which went on to take #1 on the KChart for three more weeks. In addition, "Heartbeat"
achieved the "Mutizen" song award Triple Crown on
SBS Inkigayo by being the #1 song the Inkigayo
"Take 7" chart for three weeks, the maximum
amount of time for which a nominated song is
eligible to win. On 30 December 2009, at Korean
Broadcasting System (KBS)'s end of the year Music
Festival, "Again & Again" was recognized as "Song
of the Year",[22] winning with 57,060 votes.

2PM's second single from 01:59PM was "Tired of

Waiting". The song was performed live for the first
time at the SBS Music Festival in December 2009.
2PM's promotion for the album ended with their SBS
Inkigayo performance in January 2010.

Don't Stop Can't Stop (2010)[edit]

On the cover of KoreAm, August 2010

In February 2010, JYP Entertainment announced

that Jaebeom would not return to 2PM, as his
contract with the company had been permanently
terminated, with the agreement of all 6
members.[23] A combined fan meeting and press
conference was held two days later with the six
remaining members of 2PM and JYP Entertainment
CEO Choi Jungwook in attendance. Various 2PM
fansites were shut down immediately after the
conference as a protest of Jaebeom's termination.
Management announced that although 2PM would

move forward with six members, a new leader would

not be chosen to replace Jaebeom.
In April 2010, the band released Don't Stop Can't
Stop, a mini-album consisting of six tracks. The
group intended for the release to illustrate a
stronger[clarification needed]side of themselves than did their
previous releases.[24] The lead single, Without U,
quickly rose to the #1 position on six different
Korean music charts.[25] The group made their
television performance comeback[clarification needed] on
Mnet's music program M! Countdown in April 2010.
2PM served as the opening act for nine Wonder
Girls summer shows in the United States in
2010.[26] 2PM also performed at the eighth annual
Korea Times Music Festival in Los Angeles,
California in May 2010, and at the Dream Concert in
Seoul, South Korea in May 2010.[27][28]
In May 2010, 2PM released the song "What's Your
Celebration?" for the FIFA 2010 World Cup.[29] The
song samplesK'Naan's Wavin' Flag.
In July 2010, Taecyeon and Wooyoung left their
position of MCs at SBS Inkigayo. The next month,
Wooyoung also left Winwin[clarification needed] to concentrate
on 2PM's busy schedule. The 1st concerts took
place on 31 July, 1 August (in Seoul) & 7, 8 August
(in Busan) (2AM & Miss A were invited as the guests
of the concert).

More than 12,000 fans attended 2PM's first concerts

in Seoul. 2PM performed all their hit-songs since
2008 plus solo performance from each member.
2PM held two encore concerts in Seoul on 45
September to celebrate their second anniversary.
In October 2010, 2PM released their fourth EP, Still
2:00PM,[30] with the lead single "I'll Be Back" staying
at number one for two consecutive weeks in
the Music Bank.[31] In November 2010, Still
2:00PM debuted unexpectedly on the 13th spot of
theBillboard's World Album-Chart though no
promotions for the album were made in the United
States.[32][33][34]
2PM was granted the "Most Popular Asian Singer"
award at the Mandarin Music Honors 2010 in
China.[context?] The group attended the event on 18
October at Wukesong Arena; it was the tenth annual
MMH. Previously, Rain, Jang Nara, and Shin Seung
Hoon have each taken home the "Years Best
Korean Singer" award, but this is the first time a
Korean artist has won the "Most Popular Asian
Singer" award. 2PM performed "Heartbeat" and "Ill
Be Back".[35]
2PM officially made their Japanese debut in
December 2010 with their first live event in Japan at
the Ryogoku Kokugikan Gymnasium, a place well

known for sumo games. The platinum showcase

was called "2PM 1st Contact in JAPAN" LIVE.[36]

Japanese debut and Hands Up (2011

12)[edit]
In May 2011, 2PM released their Japanese debutsingle, "Take Off." The song was featured as an
ending song in the Blue Exorcist anime
series.[37] Due to considerable online pre-orders of
the limited version A, regular version and limited
version B of the single, "Take Off" ranked from No. 1
to 3, respectively, on the pre-order chart of Tower
Records Japan.[38] It also reached Number 1 in the
USEN's J-Pop Chart. 2PM was the first Korean band
to top that chart.[39]
2PMs first Japanese concert tour, known as the
"2PM 1st Japan Tour 2011 Take Off," began in
Sapporo on 6 May and ended a week later in
Tokyo.[40]
In June 2011, JYP Entertainment released the
tracklist of their upcoming second studio album,
which would be known as "Hands Up."[41] The album
was released later that month on 20 June
2011.[42] For the first time, the album featured two
songs composed by 2PM members: "HOT" by
Minjun and "Give it to Me" by Junho.

Hands Up got an "all-kill" crown on all of the major

charts. Their title track landed at number one, and
several additional songs also placed.[43] The
promotion period for the album was short; it ended
just one month after the album's release. This
allowed the band to prepare for their Japanese
promotions and for their "Hands Up Asia Tour."[44]
The 2PM Show began broadcasting in July 2011 on
SBSs E!TV cable channel and featured all six
members. It was the first time 2PM would emcee a
program with their name on it.[45]
On 30 November 2011, 2PM released their first
studio album in Japanese language, Republic of
2PM. It contains all of their Japanese singles
released to date (Take Off, I'm Your Man and Ultra
Lover) plus the Japanese version of their most
recent Korean hit song "Hands Up", as well as a new
song composed by Minjun for Japanese fans called
"Hanarete Itemo" (, Even When We're
Apart) and 4 other completely new songs. The main
point of the album artwork motif is a taste of the 50s
and 60s.
Oricon released their sales for 2011, announcing
that 2PM was the 2nd best selling new artist in
Japan, only behind Johnny & Associates's
group Kis-My-FT2, with 990 million yen

(12.68 million USD) only in singles, albums and

DVDs sales.[46]
In April 2012, 2PM announced plans to release a
documentary film with 2AM, to be known as Beyond
The One Day, inJapan.[47] One Day refers to the
group from which 2PM and 2AM both split. On 13
April, they released the trailer for the film.[48]

Grown (2013)[edit]
After more than a year, 2PM made their Korean
comeback in 2013 with their third studio
album, Grown. A teaser for the music video of
"Comeback When You Hear This Song", the lead
single of their album, was released in 2 May 2013 on
2PM's official YouTube account.[49] The full music
video was released in 6 May 2013 along with 10
songs from the album.[50] This album is a two title

where they performed "A.D.T.O.Y." and "Comeback

When You Hear This Song", along with Shinhwa, for
their album The Classic andSeo In-young for her
EP Forever Young.[52]

GO CRAZY! (2014)[edit]
During the filming of the music video of the group's
upcoming comeback, a fire broke out on the set of
the music video, authorities stated after the fire had
been handled that the fire was relatively small and
had been controlled by the time the fire team
arrived, and apparently started when a spark from
some fireworks which were being used in the music
video landed on a sponge. All the members and staff
present at the time were confirmed to be
unharmed.[citation needed] The long awaited comeback that
was to be in April was postponed by JYP
Entertainment and 2PM due to their individual
activities, for early June with a possibility that they
will return in July at the earliest or even later in the
year. According to ALLKPOP, JYP Entertainment
rep told Newsen on the 14th, "2PM's comeback has
been delayed for the time being. It will be in the
latter-half of this year but the exact date has not
been decided yet."
In August 31, 2pm released teaser photos for their
comeback GO CRAZY! and also revealed the date
to their comeback which is September 10.[53] In

of their comeback.[54] Later in September 10 12AM
KST, they release their music video on jyp's official
YouTube account.[55] They made their comeback
