About 2PM

2PM is a South Korean boy band that debuted on September 4, 2008. The group was founded by record producer Park Jin-Young, who later formed JYP Entertainment. The group started with 11 members and was known as One Day. The group was then split into two groups called 2AM and 2PM.

2PM wanted to have a different image than what they called the “pretty boy bands.” They wanted to show a tougher, more macho image than previous bands. They physically trained hard to get their bodies into shape before their debut.

They released their debut single “10 Out of 10” on September 4, 2008. They released their second single “Only You,” along with their mini-album Hottest Time of the Day, in October 2008. With their new release, they got noticed and became mainstream. Along with the release of their music, they hosted the third season of the “Idol Army,” a Korean variety show.

2PM released their second album 2:00PM Time For Change, in April 2009. In May, they won an award for that album on M!Countdown. The release of more music followed and their single “Niga Mipda,” reached number one on the music charts.

In 2009, the group performed and was honored at M.net Asian Music Awards for the best male group. Later that year, there was some controversy with their leader at the time, Jay Park. He spoke badly about South Korea on social media and there was a call for him to leave the group. Jay Park apologized but eventually, he ended up leaving in 2010.

2PM went on and released a total of 11 albums, three compilation albums, and also 27 singles. The group toured and sold-out concerts while promoting their music. They released music in Japanese also and toured Japan to promote it.

In 2017, they released their last album as a group before Taecyeon decided not to re-sign with JYP Entertainment.
