Introduction of T-max


The 3-guy group, made up of Shin Min Chul (vocalist), Park Yun Hwa (vocalist) and Kim Joon (rapper), was formed based on the idea of maximum, perfect harmony, as it's name suggests. Their debut song is a J-pop style dance track about the moment that new love blooms. Many know T-Max as the group who filmed themselves dancing to Arashi's "Love So Sweet" and gave it as a gift to their producer.

T-max released their first album Blooming in year 2007 as they debuted. Yun Hwa has featured in “Mak Ban Shi” or “Maknae Rebellion” a show designed to bring popular idol group maknaes (i.e. youngest member) out in the light. In year 2010 many T-Max fans shocked when Yun Hwa left the band. It was revealed that the 24-year old Yoon Hwa has decided to join the army sometime in the year 2010 instead of waiting until he is 29-years-old, which is what most male entertainers in the entertainment industry do.

The decision was revealed on the 5th where Yoon Hwa wrote a message on T-Max’s fancafe. He regrets that he has to leave the group but this was a decision that he had made with much thought. He also hopes that everyone will continue supporting T-Max and he will return as a better musician in future. On November 16th, 2010, Yun Hwa officially joined the army as an active duty soldier, however a day prior he posted a message on T-Max's cafe naver saying that he will be back in HT-Max once he is done with his duty.

Yun Hwa also posted a message stating that he will come back to T-Max through Kim Joon's twitter.
As of now T-Max (티맥스) make a special comeback with new members: Park Hanbi and Joo Chanyang. T-max released their first full album "Born to the Max" in 2010 as a 4 member group. They have also released 5 singles, and have contributed to the Boys Over Flowers and God of Study OSTs. Singles include Blooming (July 2007), Lion Heart (November 2007), Run to You (December 2008), Single Collection (July 2009), Love Parade (September 2009).
