Their first album released on August 27, 2007 includes their first hit song "Forget About Love and Sing" which is track 1 and their other song which they have sung on a couple of music shows "Can We Love?" which is track 2. The album also features SunYeh and YeEun of Wonder Girls (Between - track 9), Pdogg (Between - track 9), Lim Jeong Hee (Listen To Me - track 8), K.Will (Listen To Me - track 8), and V.O.S (If I Only Had One Day - track 5).
