Both of them not new in the industry. Chang Hoon had started since 1995 when he joined a dance group, Check, and then become a duo with female singer Kim Joon Hee. Meanwhile Ho Bum, debuted in another dance trio in 1996 called Scream which ended up separating after their first album. They met each other through Koo Joon Yeop and they become good friends.

They released new album together in 2003 with the song “Here, Hips!”. The song become popular due to that the music video featured JYP artists at that time JYP, god and Rain. After they finished the contracts with JYP they released their second album with the song “Memories”.
