マイネーム / 마이네임
MYNAME kept working in Japan long after the Korean releases stopped, which makes the catalogue longer than the domestic story suggests.
Last updated:
Gunwoo, Insoo, Seyong, JunQ and Chaejin each have a separate route in — singing, rapping, dancing or acting.
Come here for a group that lasted through persistence rather than through one breakout moment.

A five-piece that arrived from H2 Media on October 27, 2011. Gunwoo, Insoo, Seyong, JunQ and Chaejin divide singing, rapping and dancing among themselves inside one group, and the debut song Message set that image out. Planting a flag as a second-generation Korean group, they used the Korean work as a footing and moved towards a Japanese debut the following year.
The entrance is Message, Hello & Goodbye and Baby I'm Sorry. The tension and the reach of the voices at the debut, a melody with the ache out front, and a long narrative music video: those three points are what mark MYNAME out. Even on the more ballad-leaning songs they never drop the dancing, and the stance of showing both the singing and the movement runs all the way through.
The Japanese work stacked up singles and albums through What's Up, WE ARE MYNAME, Five Stars, I.M.G. Without You and Kiseki, building live work and a fan base in parallel with Korea. In 2015 Too Very So Much also brought a Korean comeback and cut a sharper edge as a dance song. From 2017 the members moved into military service, acting and solo work, but the run reads as Message, then Baby I'm Sorry, then Too Very So Much, covering the debut image, the ache and the hard dance song.
Editors' take Message / Baby I'm Sorry / Too Very So Much — three songs cover singing, narrative videos and hard dance songs in a five-piece from H2 Media.
No. 23 of 210 groups with recorded activity in Japan (top 11%)
The denominator is the 210 groups, out of 525 covered by KPOP DISCOVER, whose raw score reaches at least one point. The score adds 10 points per Japanese-market release, 3 per Japan-related track, 12 per member from Japan, and 8 per official Japanese account. Japanese-market releases carry the most weight because they are the most direct evidence of activity; related tracks add track-level detail; members from Japan stand for Japanese-language communication and continuity; official accounts stand for a permanent point of contact. The weights are an editorial judgement, not a statistical optimisation, and the ranking tracks release volume in Japan closely.
