[edit] History
1TYM (Pronounciation is the same as One Time) began when Teddy (rapper) and Danny (aka Taebin) auditioned for Brothers Entertainment. Teddy and Danny had been best friends and had attended Diamond Bar High School prior to their audition. After their audition, they were both selected to be sent to South Korea to further their careers as artists. It was there that Brothers Entertainment introduced 1TYM to the YG Entertainment, a Korean entertainment company.
Shortly after their change, 1TYM opened auditions to a large group of talented Koreans. Oh Jin Hwan, formerly a member of a dance group, auditioned and made it into 1TYM. Baek Kyoung also auditioned, but failed to make it in on first attempt. Despite the denial, Baek Kyoung persisted in persuading 1TYM's manager, and finally made it in as 1TYM's fourth.
1TYM originally had 7 members, but was cut down to four prior to album release.
1TYM finally debuted in November 1, 1998 with the release of their first album: "One Time for Your Mind."
