The band was from Cheonan and consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist Jang Beom-jun [ko], bassist Kim Hyung-tae, and drummer Brad Moore.
Moore, an American, was a professor at Sangmyung University before the show, and Jang and Kim were students majoring in animation.
They were very popular during the show, and the songs they recorded made millions of dollars (USD), but they didn't get to keep any of the profits.
They eventually accepted a six-month contract with CJ E&M Music on condition that they could write their own songs, play they own instruments, choose the production staff, and record in Cheonan instead of Seoul.
They performed "First Love", "Yeosu Night Sea" and "Cherry Blossom Ending" for the first time at the showcase.
All eleven songs on the album were written by Jang Beom-jun and are based on his personal experiences and emotions.
[4] They were originally written in an acoustic style, and were rearranged with strings, keyboards, drums and electric guitars for the album.
[2] It sold more than 12,000 copies by April 2, and became hard to find in stores, with employees saying they "didn't know the debut album of a new singer would sell so fast".
[10] Songs from the album were also successful digitally, especially "Cherry Blossom Ending", which topped the K-Pop Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks.
