2AM triumphs with Won’t Let You Go Even if I Die on Inkigayo!

2AM has become quite the fan favorite with their comeback track Won’t Let You Go Even if I Die, and there’s little question why – each member of this group is seriously talented! Many music fans believed that powerhouse girl group SNSD would take the Mutizen on this week’s episode of SBS Inkigayo, but 2AM came out on top, winning a Mutizen for the first time in their career.

Clad in white & silver and swamped with fog up to their knees, the 2AM boys pulled off yet another great performance:

This week’s Take 7 nominees were SNSD for Oh!, CNBLUE for I’m a Loner, 2AM for Can’t Let You go even If I Die, HyunA for Change, SeeYa, Davichi & T-ara for Wonder Women, Kim Jong Kook for This is the Person and Gavy NJ for Sunflower. Unfortunately, HyunA could not perform due to 4minute’s promotions in the Philippines. Well, CNBLUE’s short-lived reign lasted just a week with 2AM taking the lead tonight. Congrats to them!

Upon their victory, the boys visibly choked up. I swear, these guys are way too precious…




Although we’ve seen 2AM perform this track a few times already, this ballad is hard to get tired of; I’m sure many fans still have this song on repeat. Congrats to the members for their well-deserved and hard-won victory!



Park Jin Young wanted to throw 2AM and 2PM in the trash?

Park Jin Young is loved throughout the Korean entertainment industry. He is one of the most successful entertainers and music producers in the nation. Therefore, it’s no surprise that when it comes down to business, he’s serious.

On the 6th, 2AM’s Lim Seulong appeared on KBS 2TV’s ‘Entertainment Tonight‘ and shared a time when he got into trouble with the ‘big man.’

He stated, “During our [2AM and 2PM] trainee days, if we couldn’t memorize the lyrics, we were punished. Boss Park Jin Young told us, ‘I want to throw all of you in the trashcan.’ I was shocked. Back then, it was a really shocking incident. The 11 of us from 2PM and 2AM gathered and we all cried.”

After reflecting back on this incident, both Seulong and leader Jokwon left a video message of thanks for their mothers. Seulong thanked his mom for paying for his music lessons (220,000 Won) on top of his living expenses (250,000~30,000 Won) and Jokwon said, “Thank you for your love and support. I love you.”

Now it’s no wonder why 2AM and 2PM are so successful. It was all due to Park Jin Young’s tough love.
