about
TRAX was formed in the summer of 2004 by the record label SM Entertainment. The search for members of this band started in 2000 and took four years to complete. Part of the original line up of Typhoon, Rose and Attack first appeared in the 2002 Survival Audition HeeJun vs. KangTa Battle of the Century along with DBSK member Xiah Junsu and Super Junior’s Sungmin and Eunhyuk. It was from this and several other auditions that SM Entertainment discovered the line-up and began training them. The bands name comes from the initials of the original line-up’s names: Typhoon, Rose, Attack and Xmas. Sometimes it is said that their name simply comes from the term “recording tracks”. Before the band debuted, Typhoon was lined up to be in a planned SM Entertainment band called Smile along with DBSK member U-KNOW, although this never came to pass. The band as a whole made their first public appearance along side BoA for her single Rock With You at the MTV Asia Awards and at her special with American popstar Britney Spears. The TRAX officially debuted in July 2004 with the release of their Paradox single and their first concerts at the Ziller Hall in Seoul in the same month. Shortly after their debut in Korea, they made their debut in Japan with the release of the single Scorpio, which was released simultaneously in Japan and Korea in December 2004. In October 2004 they were featured on Dong Bang Shin Ki’s first album TRI-ANGLE along with BoA, and then again in September 2005 on Dong Ban
