K-pop boy group 2AM might be having a reunion soon!
2AM is a four-member boy band made up of Jo Kwon, Lee Changmin, Lim Seulong, and Jeong Jinwoon. The quartet is one of the two subgroups from the eleven-member group One Day, the other one is 2PM.
One Day was formed by JYP Entertainment's own J.Y. Park and appeared on a documentary titled "Hot Blood," which was broadcasted on Mnet. The documentary showed the training program of the members (except for Changmin who has not yet joined JYP at that time) on their pre-debut days.
2AM debuted back in July 2008 and was under the management of JYP Entertainment and Big Hit Music (formerly Big Hit Entertainment). The quartet is more of a ballad group, while 2PM is a hip-hop band.
