JUST START THE MUSIC

2PM is a South Korean boy band, originally a seven-member group, but currently consisting of six membersdue to the sudden contract termination of leader Jaebeom following an Internet controversy in September 2009. They are managed by JYP Entertainment. The current members are Junsu, Junho, Nichkhun, Taecyeon, Wooyoung and Chansung.

2PM is one of the two subgroups branched out from the eleven-member (before Jaebeom's departure) boy band One Day, the other being 2AM. 2PM's and 2AM's training days were filmed in a documentary called Hot Blood Men, which aired on Mnet. The show documented the time by time training program of the JYP trainees who were to be part of the group "One Day", as well as the elimination of three trainees from the group during the time.

They debuted with the song "10 Jeom Manjeome 10 Jeom" ( 10 Points Out of 10 Points), which showcased their acrobatic dance styles.

On September 4, 2009, articles surfaced on the internet regarding Jaebeom's posts from 2005 on his personal Myspace account, in which he expressed his dislike for Korea while still a trainee for JYP Entertainment. Jaebeom issued an apology regarding this matter. Although  protesters demanded that Jaebeom should be forced out of 2PM, JYP Entertainment  stated on September 7 that he was going to continue to remain part of the group. The following day, Jaebeom announced that he would be leaving the group and returning to the United States, with plans of going back to school and bettering his understanding of music, and also apologized to the other 2PM members for not being a good leader and older brother to the group.Park Jin-young CEO of JYP Entertainment has confirmed that he will respect the singer's decision, and that 2PM will continue on as a 6-member group.

On February 25, 2010, JYP Entertainment announced that  Jaebeom would not be returning to 2PM, as his contract with the company had been permanently terminated.
