They started when J.Y. Park formed an 11 member group known as One Day. Eventually the group was split into 2PM and a similar but independent group known as 2AM. 2PM debuted with the song "10점 만점에 10점" (10 out of 10), which showcased their acrobatic dance styles.
2PM achieved their first #1 single with "Again & Again", from their first studio album 1:59PM, released in 2009. They made their Japanese debut with REPUBLIC OF 2PM in 2011.

2PM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What time is it now? I said, what time is it now?
It's time for change, it's time for a new generation
It's time for a new star to shine.
So, what time is it now? What time is it now?
It's 2-P-M. You hear that? I said, it's 2-P-M.
In the song "Tetris" by 2PM, the opening lyrics immediately grab the listener's attention as they ask "What time is it now?" twice, emphasizing the importance of the current moment. The group then declares that it's "time for change," specifically a new generation to take the reins and for a new star to rise. This can be interpreted as a call to action for youth to step up and lead, and for everyone to embrace innovation and progress. The repetition of "What time is it now?" followed by the answer "2PM" creates a sense of identity and unity for the group and their fans.
Furthermore, the title "Tetris" may be a nod to the popular video game, which involves fitting different shaped blocks together to create a seamless design. The lyrics suggest a similar theme of pieces coming together to form something greater than the sum of their parts. The chorus repeats the phrase "We fit together" and "One by one," as if building a larger structure. The group's harmonies enhance this idea of unity and cooperation.
Overall, "Tetris" can be seen as a motivational song that encourages listeners to embrace change, work together, and strive to be a part of something greater. The references to time and fitting pieces together also add a sense of urgency and purpose to the song, making it a memorable anthem for 2PM and their fans.
