Ex-member and leader Jae Beom. 2PM is one of the two subgroups branched out from the eleven-member boy band One Day, the other being 2AM. They debuted with the song "10 Points out of 10 Points" which showcased their mix of acrobatic and b-boy dance style.
Before their debut, 2PM was featured on an documentary called Hot Blood that aired on Mnet, along with the members of 2AM. The show documented the rigorous training program of JYP trainees as well as the elimination of three of trainees from the group. Junho was on a television program called 'Superstar Survival' which was done in order to pick out talent by JYP and got the first place among the candidates.(The competition rate was 6500:1) Chan Sung and Taec Yeon were also on the program. Jae Beom(also called Jay) was in B-boy crew in the U.S called AOM which stands for Art of Movement and lived in Seattle. Taec Yeon also lived in Boston, Massachusetts.
2PM officially debuted on Mnet M!Countdown, performing "10 Points out of 10 Points", on September 4, 2008.
2PM debuted with their debut single "Hottest Time of the Day," and also released a music video for "10 Points out of 10 Points." They made their official debut performance on Mnet M!Countdown, performing "10 Points out of 10 Points", on September 4, 2008. They continued to perform "10 Points out of 10 Points" on other music shows, including SBS Inkigayo and KBS Music Bank. They were particularly known for their high energy during their performances and the subtle changes and improvisations to their choreography. On October 17th, 2008, 2PM officially started their promotion for "Only You," another song from "Hottest Time of the Day." Remixes of their music were showed to different music & variety shows. Their song "Only You," was remixed in to a winter version to fit the Christmas season on December 05, 2008.
Along with their performances on music shows, 2PM has also appeared on many variety shows. Nichkhun was an MC on the very popular talk show Yashimmanman 2 before leaving to become a permanent guest on the variety show Star King. Also, 2PM were chosen to host the 3rd season of MBC Every1 Idol Army, the previous hosts being Super Junior and F.T. Island. ChanSung has also appeared on the famous sitcom High Kick! as the friend of the two sons. TaecYeon and Nichkhun have also guest appeared in the sitcom as well. TaecYeon was on SNICKERS CF before.
They're making their comeback with their new Album, 2:00PM Time For Change. The MV for their title track Again & Again, was released on April 16th, 2009. 2PM's new album will be released on April 27th, 2009 and they will make their comeback stage.
On September 4, 2009, articles surfaced on the internet regarding Jae Beom's posts on his personal Myspace account about his dislike for Korea back in 2005 when he was still a trainee for JYP Entertainment. Jae Beom issued an apology regarding this matter. Although outraged protesters demanded that Jae Beom should be forced out of 2PM, JYP Entertainment CEO Park Jin-young stated on September 7 that he was going to continue to remain part of the group. The following day, Jae Beom announced on his offical fancafe that he would be quitting the group and returning to the United States, and apologized to the other 2PM members for not being a good leader and older brother to the group. So now 2PM has no leader and will be continuing as a 6 member group going by what JYP as said.
Ever since Jay's departure from Korea, Hottest has been boycotting 2PM activities and not supporting 2PM as a 6 member group. They have been signing petitions to get Jay back into 2PM, doing everything they can to get him back.
