2PM, Subgroup, Singers Rating Options

[Love. Music.]

First appearing on the reality show. Hot Blood, the 7 members were casted as winners along with the 3 members of 2AM of the competition.

Now known as JYP's Pride and Joy, 2PM finally released their much anticipated single album “Hottest Time of the Day” on August 29. JYP revealed that “this group is my pride and reputation” because 2PM is his newest boyband in 10 years since the creation of G.O.D. The title of their album "Hottest Time of the Day" implies that 2PM will reflect the bussle and activity of mid-day by working hard as a dance group.

2PM’s title song is “10 points out of 10″, which is a fusion of rock(ish) guitar ripples, electronica, with a hip-pop beat that shows JYP’s daring style. And I definitely give them a perfect score - "10 out of 10″ - because this song will be the next sensation. Their single album contains 6 tracks, including “Only You” and “Angel”.
