History
2AM revealed on March 5, 2010 through their official home page cuts of their new image. Jo Kwon, Changmin, Seulong, and Jinwoon respectively transformed as a club DJ, an ice hockey player, a biker, and a basketball player for their new 10-minute drama-music video. The repackaged mini-album features 4 additional songs, 3 from their first and second singles and one entirely new song titled "Jalmot Haesseo" ("잘못했어" - "I Was Wrong"), which would be their promoted track. One representative stated, “The song we’re releasing is something that 2AM has never shown before and is a brand new type of music.”[1] A portion of the song was revealed in the first episode of 2AM's new reality show "2AM DAY" on March 10,[2] where the members playfully sing along to it in their car.
Music video
Four teasers were released for each member from March 12 to March 14. A leaked version of Part 1 of the music video was released on March 15, having been recorded by camera at 2AM's subway showcase.[3] The second part was released a few days later. The video shows the 2AM members suddenly falling for a girl they have always liked, until they start to fight about it, and the girl becomes overwhelmed with grief she commits suicide
Promotions
2AM first performed "I Was Wrong" on M.net M!Countdown on March 18, 2010.[4] As opposed to their previous singles which were ballads, dance choreography was performed to the song.
2AM won the Mutizen on M!Countdown on April 1, 2010. However, due to the ROKS Cheonan sinking near Baengnyeong Island, all music shows were canceled.[5] Member Jinwoon expressed his deep sympathies for the families of the missing people in the group's acceptance speech, asking the public to pray.[6]
