Lima cowok ini debut dengan lagu berjudul Admiring Boy yang juga dikenal sebagai Tokyo Boy. Lagunya enak banget menurutku, lyric-nya juga bagus. Pokoknya, berasa deh kepolosan seorang cowok melalui lagu ini. Selain lagu ini, mereka juga punya lagu Dazzling World.
Kelima cowok ini bilang mereka mengidolakan DBSK. Hmm, no wonder…MV, lagu, dan konsep mereka mengingatkanku akan DBSK. MV-nya ada beberapa bagian yang mengingatkan pada MV DBSK yang Hug. Lagunya juga menurutku punya image yang sama dengan Hug, yaitu image lagu yang polos. Konsep mereka sebagai accapella boyband juga sama kayak DBSK.
Meskipun kulihat ada beberapa orang yang bilang seharusnya mereka menemukan gaya mereka sendiri dan nggak ikut-ikutan gaya DBSK, menurutku sih nggak masalah. Soalnya, buatku malah bikin nostalgia. Habis, DBSK sekarang gayanya sudah dewasa banget. Jadi, dengan adanya boyband yang fresh and cute di tengah gempuran boyband-boyband yang mengusung image hip-hop/manly, bener-bener merupakan keuntungan buat pecinta cowok cute kayak aku, hehehe…
Aku suka banget sama boyband ini! Umur membernya juga nggak beda jauh sama aku (malah si Jay lebih muda dari aku)
Pertama kali liat fotonya, yang langsung bikin aku jatuh hati ya si Injoon yang cute…*meleleh*…Entah kenapa, tadi malem ada cowok yang mukanya mirip sama Injoon nyasar ke mimpiku.
Setelah lihat MV-nya, menurutku yang paling ganteng si Mika. Aduh, aku emang suka banget loat model rambut kayak punya si Mika! Selain itu ekspresi wajahnya waktu nutup mata sambil pake headset itu…AAHHH!!
Suara aku paling suka suara Karam nomor 1. Nomor 2 nya si Mika.
Terus, member yang rambut merah itu, yang ngerap, gayanya keren ya! *Jay kalo ga salah*
Member yang rambutnya rada berdiri itu suaranya mirip Kang In, yah? *Hyunmin kalo ga salah*
Overall, i love D-NA! D-NA, hwaiting!!

Having trained for two years, MBLAQ was first announced on 21 September 2009, with an appearance in Nylon magazine. The group appeared alongside Rain, in his Legend of Rainism concert. They performed various songs from their produced EP, Just BLAQ and were met with praise, with many spectators at the concert and fans considering them as the next DBSK. The group released teasers for their debut song, “Oh Yeah” on October 12, with the music video being released two days later. Coinciding with the music video, MBLAQ’s debut single album Just BLAQ, was released on the same day, topping various charts in South Korea. The next day, the group made their broadcast debut on M.net’s M!Countdown, performing “Oh Yeah”.
In early December, the group debuted in Japan, following their performance during Rain’s fan meeting- resulting in a documentary being produced surrounding their stay in Japan. Later that month, the group commenced promotions for their follow up track, “G.O.O.D Luv”, with two music videos released, an ‘unofficial’ MV released prior to the ‘official’ MV which was released on December 10, 2009.
On May 19, 2010, the group released their second single album, Y. The music video for the title track, “Y” was released on the same day at midnight with teasers being released from May 6. MBLAQ claimed first place on the 3rd of June 2010 on the music show M! Countdown.

In late 2009, MBLAQ’s first aired program was M.Net’s MBLAQ – The Art of Seduction, which received record ratings for the cable TV’s program.
With their trip to Japan for Rain’s fanmeet, music channel M.Net Japan decided to film a documentary of their stay, selecting them as the first stars of their show ’2010 KPOP Star’ series. The documentary, called Yo! Tokyo, aired in early 2010, showing the public their experience in Japanese culture and traditions over a period of four days.
On December 15 2009, it was announced that the group would be part of Season five of the Idol Show (Hangul: 아이돌 군단의 떴다! 그녀!, which translates to Idol Army, She Has Arrived!), with the first episode airing a day later. MBLAQ filmed a total of 16 episodes.
- Year 2010
From February 18 2010, MBLAQ members G.O and Joon took on the role of co-hosts (MCD Guys) for the music show M! Countdown.
To coincide with the 2010 FIFA World Cup, MTV Korea created a program where members of male idol groups formed a soccer team to compete against other soccer teams. The 14-member team consisted of members from U-KISS, ZE:A, F.Cuz, and D-NA (Dae Guk Nam Ah), with MBLAQ members being Seung Ho, Joon and Mir.
Cheon Doong, having lived in the Philippines, participated in the cable TV show, Mom, I’ve gone crazy for English with fellow singer Nicole of Kara, where he was an English mentor to young children.
In addition to his MC role in M! Countdown, Joon also took on the role of MC for QTV’s Ranking Women, however he has since left the program to focus on his music activities.
