Year in Review: Go Back to “One Spring Day” with 2AM’s 2013

The boys of 2AM started their 2013 with by conquering overseas with the release of their first full-length Japan Album titled "Voice" on Jan 9. The album had included tracks from their 1st to 4th Japanese singles and 4 new songs, such as "First Love", "Pretty Girl", Radio, and Japanese version of "I Wonder If You Hurt Like Me."

After a year in hiatus in the Korean music scene, 2AM returned on March with a new album titled, "One Spring Day," which features a total of nine tracks and instrumental and the boys teamed up with many talented artists which includes, pianist and composer Yiruma, Eptione Project and more, making it their second full-length album. The album also had a little twist to it sice they highlighted Seulong's voice which was heard at the beginning of the album.

The group also had a chance to host SNL Korea on April 13, making them the second idol group to host the show after Super Junior. The hosting event made a hot issue as idol group rarely show up in SNL, one of the hottest shows in Korea.

The group then were busy with their individual schedules. Changmin was once again casted in a musical, "The Three Musketeers," with 2PM's Jun K. He also have moved hearts by singing for the original soundtrack of the popular drama, "The Heirs," entitled, "Moment."

While, Seulong and Jinwoon were chosen as Samsung Creative Note Ambassadors and took part in creative stages for SAMSUNG Galaxy Note Day.

And Jo Kwon brought delight as he hosted with his cute and adorable dog, Gaga for KBS' "A Song For You," which has been the request line of fans to their favourite artists.

However, last October, member Jinwoon got into an accident when he collided with a 25-ton truck, injuring his leg. He had to leave his hosting job in KBS' "Music Bank" because of the incident.

On November 2AM then released an album, titled, "Nocturne." The mini included 5 tracks. This comeback marked their return in eight months since their album "One Spring Day" last March. But because of Jinwoon's accident, the group did not promote on the various music shows.

The group then closed the year by holding a concert titled, "Nocturne" in Seoul last December 7. They also showcased the same concert in Los Angeles last December 15 and in Taipei last December 21.

2AM indeed had a smooth ride with their promotions at the start of the year. But, due to Jinwoon's injury, the fans had not seen their faces on their favourite local music shows.

Well, there is 2014 ahead of us and surely we will be able to see them performing on our TV screens and hopefully even on stage.

Let us wish 2AM a prosperous new year ahead!
