After their Hands Up activity last year, boy group 2PM introduces their first Japanese regular album.

Read it below.

Title: 2PM's first regular album in Japan!! 2PM's playlist

Hello Cyworld users, this is 2PM!!^^

It's been a while since our Hands Up activity, last year. Now we're back again to present you our first Japanese regular album, [Republic of 2PM]. We hope you Korean fans like it~

Happy new year and have a great lunar new year's holiday.

Q. Tell us how you feel about the release of [Republic of 2PM] album in Korea: 
Needless to say, we are all very much excited to formally introduce this album to our fans in Korea! It was released in Japan last November, and a song written by Junsu is among the tracklist as well. The album contains most of the songs we've released in Japan up till now so please show it some love^^

Q. How do Korean fans differ from Japanese fans?
Korean fans seem more aggressive offstage than those in Japan. Japanese fans tend to be more shy - only slightly, though, but that could be due to linguistical and cultural differences. When we are onstage, however, it's a whole other story. Those that come to see and cheer for us performing on the stage are all so passionate - Korean and Japanese fans, alike. Their passion motivates us to give our best on the stage to put on a good show for our fans. 
 
Q. Your fans are eager to find out what your next move is:
We say this all the time, but we'll be working hard in order to show you a fresh new image of 2PM in year 2012 as well! Granted, we'll be active in Japan this year, but you'll be seeing us around a lot in Korea, too. Please, look forward to it and watch us grow. As long as we have your love and support by our side, we won't ever let you down!
 
 
Q. Recommend us one song that each of you prize the most!
 
You got to check this song out cuz it's pure masterpiece.
 
It's one of my favorite R&B songs.
 
It's a song that introduced me to the world of dance.
 
Brian Mcknight's vocalistic skills shine in this song.
 
This song brings me back the memories from my trainee days cuz I used to listen to it so often while I was practicing.
 
When I heard this song for the first time, I fell in love with its melody right away.
