2AM will be 20 years old in two years.

Lee Chang-min, Jo Kwon, Lim Seul-ong and Jung Jin-woon appear on the 10th episode of MBN and Channel S’s “Jeon Hyun-moo’s Plan 4,” airing at 9:10 p.m. on the fourth. The program features visits to restaurants in the two cities.

We are idols of the 2.5 generation. Groups from that era are almost reaching their 20th anniversaries these days. In our time, we started with UCCs and even did flash mobs.

Jeon Hyun-moo notes that 2AM will reach its 20th anniversary in two years. Jo Kwon describes the group as part of K-pop’s “2.5 generation,” recalling an era that began with UCC videos and included flash mobs.

Jeon then points out that Jung Jin-woon still sometimes uses honorific speech with his older bandmates, despite the group’s 18 years since debut. Lee Chang-min explains that Jung Jin-woon spoke informally and was “scolded by Kwon,” prompting the playful contrast between the group’s long history and its enduring seniority rules.
