Through the documentary series Hot Blood Men, Korean musician Park Jin-young formed an eleven-member band known as One Day. Eventually, the band was split into the hip hop group 2PM and a similar but independent group known as 2AM. 2PM debuted with the song "10 Out of 10" (10점 만점에 10점, lit. "10 Points Out of 10 Points"), which showcased their acrobatic dance styles.[1] They then achieved their first number 1 single with "Again & Again". Both singles were featured on their first studio album, 01:59PM, which was released in 2009. The band went on to release another Korean album, Hands Up, in 2011. They made their Japanese debut later that year with Republic of 2PM. The group enjoyed significant commercial success with their subsequent albums; Grown (2013), Go Crazy (2014), No.5 (2015), and Gentlemen's Game (2016), each of which peaked within the top 3.

Following touring for Gentlemen's Game, the group took an official hiatus in July 2017 due to mandatory military service.[2] Following the members' discharge, 2PM returned with their seventh studio album Must in June 2021.

History

Pre-debut

The members of 2PM all auditioned (except Nichkhun, who was scouted)[3] to become part of JYP Entertainment. Some members already had experience in the entertainment industry, including Jun. K, who had won several singing competitions. Ok Taecyeon, Lee Junho and Hwang Chansung had participated in the show SuperStar Survival.[4] Some of the members had previously lived in the United States: former leader 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 Men[5] captured 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, Jeong Jinwoon, and Yoon Doo-joon were all cut. However, Jinwoon replaced Im Daehun upon the latter's withdrawal. By the end of the training process, One Day had been reduced to an eleven-member group. The band was then split into four-member ballad group 2AM and seven-member hip-hop group 2PM.

While most Korean boy bands at the time adopted a "pretty boy" or kkonminam image, 2PM constructed a tough and macho beast-like image when they made their debut.[6][7] By emphasizing their masculine images, 2PM is known for creating the "jimseung-dol" (which translates to beast/animal idol in Korean) phenomenon in 2008.[7] Jaebeom was chosen to serve as the group's leader, as he was the oldest member and also the one who 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 album Hottest Time of the Day on August 29, 2008. The album consisted a total of 6 tracks, including its lead single "10 Out of 10" (10점 만점에 10점).[8] The group made their debut live performance with a performance of "10 Out of 10" on M Countdown on September 4, 2008.[9] The following month, the group released a winter special version of their song "Only You", a B-side from their debut mini album. Concurrently, 2PM hosted the third season of Korean variety show Idol Army.[10]

On April 16, 2009, the group released their second mini album, 2:00PM Time For Change, which they began promoting that month with the lead single "Again and Again". This comeback was met with commercial success, with "Again and Again" placing at number one on various music charts including Cyworld, Hanteo, Melon, Mnet, and Muse.[11] The following month, they won their first Mutizen Song award on M Countdown, followed by two more and a Music Bank award.[12] On June 11, 2PM began promotions for their song "Niga Mipda" (니가 밉다, lit. I Hate You) on M Countdown.[13] 2PM then achieved first place on the M Countdown and Music Bank charts with "Niga Mipda" later in July and on July 30, the group won the 'Only One Song' award on M Countdown. At this time, 2PM also starred in the popular Korean variety show Wild Bunny.[14]

A controversy regarding Jaebeom emerged when on September 4, 2009, articles surfaced on the internet regarding his posts from 2005 made on his personal Myspace account, in which he expressed his dislike for Korea while he was 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.[15] Jaebeom issued an apology regarding this matter.[16] Although some netizens demanded that Jaebeom should be forced out of 2PM, JYP Entertainment CEO Park Jin-young stated on September 7 that he lent the singer a vote of confidence, suggesting that Jaebeom would remain in the group.[17] However, on the following day, Jaebeom announced on his official Fancafé 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.[18] Park Jin-young confirmed that 2PM would continue on as a six-member group.[19][20] Due to the sensitive topic of Jaebeom's departure, 2PM withdrew for several weeks from their appearances on variety shows.[21]

Despite the controversy, the group went ahead with the release of their first studio album. Known as 01:59PM, the album was released on November 10, 2009.[22] In response to lingering questions regarding Jaebeom's future, Park Jin-young announced on the day after the release of 01:59PM that Jaebeom could return to 2PM if he wished to make a comeback, although the singer's return was not imminent.[23][24] In support of Jaebeom, the six remaining 2PM members decided to equally split their income from their first album with him.[25] The album included tracks voiced by Jaebeom, although his face was excluded from the cover.[26] The group finished re-filming their music video for the album's lead single "Heartbeat", without Jaebeom in October 2009. The group then began promotional activities for the album on a variety of music shows, including Mnet's O Good Concert, KBS' Music Bank, MBC's Music Core and SBS' Inkigayo in November 2009.[27]

A week and a half after the album's release, 2PM performed at the Mnet Asian Music Awards on November 21, 2009 and took home the awards for Best Male Group and Artist of the Year, the latter being one of the three most prestigious awards of the show.[28] 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.[29]

In late November 2009, after two weeks of promotional activities for 1:59PM, 2PM earned their first #1 on a TV music show (KBS Music Bank's "K-Chart") since the album's release, with their single "Heartbeat", which went on to take #1 on the K-Chart for three more weeks.[30] In addition, "Heartbeat" achieved the Mutizen Triple Crown song award on SBS' Inkigayo by being the #1 song on the program's "Take 7" chart for three weeks, the maximum amount of time for which a nominated song is eligible to win. On December 30, 2009, at Korean Broadcasting System (KBS)'s end of the year Music Festival, "Again & Again" was recognized as "Song of the Year", winning with 57,060 votes.[31]

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 performance on SBS' Inkigayo in January 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.[32] 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 fan sites were shut down immediately after the conference as a protest of Jaebeom's termination. The record label then 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 side of themselves than what was seen in their previous releases. The album was met with much success, with its lead song "Without U" ranking atop multiple Korean music charts.[33] The group made their television performance comeback on Mnet's music program M Countdown in April 2010.[34] In the same month, 2PM served as the opening act for nine Wonder Girls summer shows in the United States.[35]

In May 2010, 2PM also performed at the eighth annual Korea Times Music Festival in Los Angeles, California, and at the Dream Concert which was held in Seoul.[36][37] In the same month, 2PM released the song "What's Your Celebration?", which is sampled from K'Naan's "Wavin' Flag", for the FIFA 2010 World Cup. It was announced that all proceeds from the sales of the song will go to the donation support headed by FIFA World Cup in South Africa.[38]

On July 31, 2010, 2PM held their first solo concert "Don't Stop Can't Stop" at the Seoul Olympic Park Arena, with their labelmates 2AM and Miss A making guest appearances at the concert.[39] The group held another concert date in Seoul on August 1, before moving to Busan on August 7–8, and holding two more encore concerts in Seoul on September 4–5 in line with the celebration of their second debut anniversary. It was reported that more than 12,000 fans attended 2PM's first concerts in Seoul.[40]

In October 2010, 2PM released their fourth EP, Still 2:00PM,[41] with the lead single "I'll Be Back" staying at number one for two consecutive weeks on KBS' Music Bank.[42] On the following month, it was reported that Still 2:00PM debuted unexpectedly on the 13th spot of the Billboard's World Album-Chart even though no album promotions were made in the United States.[43]

On October 18, 2PM won the "Most Popular Asian Singer" award at the 10th Annual Mandarin Music Honors held at the Wukesong Arena in China. They became the first Korean artist to be granted with the award, with the group performing their songs "Heartbeat" and "I'll Be Back" at the event.[44]

Other activities

Television hosting

In December 2008, 2PM began to host the third season of MBC's Idol Show (아이돌군단의 떴다!그녀).[119] The segment ran from December 4, 2008 to March 26, 2009, with a total of seventeen episodes.

The group also starred in a reality show on Mnet titled Wild Bunny, in which the members escaped the pressures of stardom by performing ten forbidden activities of idols. The show ran from July 21 until September 1, 2009, with seven episodes aired. The airing of the final episode, which coincidentally featured the members engaged in a "Leader Olympics" game to select a new leader, was postponed indefinitely due to Jaebeom's internet controversy and his subsequent departure from the group.[120]

In addition, Taecyeon and Wooyoung have been hosting SBS (Seoul Broadcasting System)'s weekly music show Inkigayo, while Jaebeom and Chansung have also made regular appearances on 'Introducing Star Friends'. Since Jaebeom was voted off, Nichkhun replaced his position as the guest. Nichkhun and Wooyoung were also frequent guests on SBS's variety talent show Star King between April and October 2009, with the other 2PM members occasionally joining them.

In March 2009, 2PM was selected to model for EXR, a clothing company in Korea.[121] In July 2009, the members of 2PM were selected as the representatives of foreign artists by the Thai government-led tourism campaign, I Love Thailand.[122] Member Nichkhun has also been selected by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) as the face of their newest campaign, "Come to Thailand; Let's Take a Break!"[123]

In August 2009, 2PM collaborated with the Body Shop in 'Soft Hands, Kind Heart', a worldwide campaign that calls for the protection of children and teenagers against sex trafficking. The members will act as Korea's spokespeople for the campaign.[124]

In late October 2009, a commercial film (CF) of 2PM promoting Hanami (a Thai snack company) was released, which also included Jaebeom; the commercial was said to be filmed prior to his departure in September.[citation needed]

November 2009 saw multiple new endorsement deals for the group,[125] the first of which being a commercial and print campaign for Market O's "Real Brownie" pastry. Shortly thereafter, the group endorsed the Samsung Corby mobile phone, one of the newest mobile devices in Samsung's popular "Anycall" series, both on television and on the Samsung website.[126] 2PM is also currently endorsing Paris-Croissant Food Company's Paris Baguette bakery franchise, for which the group recorded a special Christmas song and are featured in a series of commercials with popular Korean actress Kim Tae-hee.[127]

In 2010, 2PM has signed on to endorse Coca-Cola[6] as well as the clothing company SPRIS (also known as PONY).[128] Members Nichkhun, Taecyeon, Minjun and Wooyoung endorse Cass Beer, and Nichkhun has continued advertising for the Suzuki Jelato motorcycle in Thailand. In addition, 2PM now endorses Calvin Klein South Korea, as well as, most recently, It's Skin, a South Korean cosmetics and skin care brand.

In mid-2010, 2PM were chosen along with Girls' Generation to be the spokesperson for Caribbean Bay.[129] Shortly after, the members of 2PM (except for Nichkhun) were chosen to sing the song "Fly to Seoul (Boom Boom Boom)" to support tourism in Korea.[130] Due to renewal of their endorsement deal with Samsung, 2PM recorded the song "Nori For U" for Samsung Anycall NORi.[131]

In April 2021, following the group's return from their hiatus, 2PM became endorsers for sportswear brand Xexymix.[132]
