2AM members feeling emotionally drained after singing all those ballads's
2AM makes a comeback with their first full-length album entitled
Saint o'clock. The quartet, which is one of the two subgroups branched out from the original 11-member boyband
One Day (the other subgroup being
2PM), will be concentrating on bringing across their soulful voices rather than their sharp dance routine in this new album.
Saint o'clock is a sentimental album.
Bang Si-hyuk, the producer who helped 2AM top the charts with the song '
Never Let You Go' returns in this album. Having two very strong songs in the album, Bang is unable to decide on the title track. Hence,
Saint o'clock has not one, but two title tracks - namely 'Like Crazy' and 'You Wouldn't Answer My Calls'. The former is described as a soulful ballad which that would captivate the audience. While the latter, is a heart-wrenching song that describes the pain and loneliness after a breakup. Very soulful songs indeed!
Penuh emo...
As you would now know, Korean music artiste don't only emphasize their music. Along with the release of a new album, comes a whole new look for the group. In this album, 2AM has opted for a very classy look, donning trendy suits.
2AM's first full-length album comes in two flavours. First, the limited-edition album (only 20,000 copies available) comes with former hit songs 'This song', 'Confession of a Friend' plus the original version of Jo Kwon's 'The Day I Confessed'. It also includes additional goodies such as a mini photo album, special 2AM diary and newsletters. The regular edition contains 'To Love You Again' written by Lee Chang-min, which is not included in the limited edition.
It's sad i tell ya...the songs that i sing will be released both online and in stores on October 26, 2010 by Loen Entertainment Inc.

"It was our first ever red carpet appearance, and the camera did not capture us," whined CNBLUE's Lee Jonghyun and Kang Minhyuk.
The pair debuted as actors in the omnibus movie Acoustic and were at the 15th Pusan International Film Festival on Oct 7.
The pair made their red carpet appearance right after Chinese actress Tang Wei (
Lust, Caution) and the cameras missed them. What a pity, especially when the event was broadcasted live!
Minhyuk divulged, "This is the first time I've seen Jonghyun Hyung so nervous."
Embarrassed, Jonghyun explained, "It's true. I'm not the type who usually gets nervous while on stage, but this time I was a wreck."
Jonghyun practiced his red carpet walk and how he would wave to fans in the hotel room before the event, so it was really disappointing when the cameras failed to catch him in action. Nevertheless, the boys are excited for their movie debut.
Jonghyun and Minhyuk said, "Watching the film reminded us of the times we spent in Japan when we started our music career. At that time, we practiced in the basement.
"We think a lot about those difficult times, but we also realize that there are a lot of people who have had similar experiences. I think we are so lucky now to be able to play music in such a good environment."
