Their debut was very successful in Korea, scoring a win with their debut song "I'm A Loner" after 15 days thus currently making them the boy band with the quickest music show win. Similar to their labelmate FTIsland who debuted before them, they won everyone with their personalities (charming and dorky), good looks and their unique appeal as a band, something rare in kpop. They also made their official Japan debut in 2011 and have also proven to be great success there.
