"10 out of 10" by 2PM.
Have you guys ever listened to “10 out of 10” by the Korean boy band 2PM? It came out in 2008 as the band’s debut single, and I got to know the band through this song.
As you can guess, the lyrics are about the attractive girl, who is perfect to be “rated” 10 out of 10. The song was written by Park Jin-young (also known as JYP), a Korean singer/producer and founder of JYP Entertainment, and I think the lyrics are written in a very typical JYP style. Many of JYP songs talk directly about a woman’s body and how he appreciates the beauty of it (in a not too pervy way). And I find it very entertaining since not many K-pop lyrics are like that. (This guy literally praises women with a big butt and even admire their moms in his 2015 hit “Who’s your mama?”)
Anyway, my impression of 2PM is that they are really “energetic” and “healthy” like guys in their early 20s, and “10 out of 10” really showed their energy well. After their successful debut, 2PM released many other hits like “Again & Again,” “I Hate You,” “Heartbeat” and “Hands Up” to have become one of the most popular K-pop boy bands. “Jimseung-dol (a beast-like boyband)” was their most noticeable nickname because of their muscular body and powerful performances.
So, check out “10 out of 10” if you are curious about the song and 2PM!

I enjoyed reading your post. I didn't know much about 2PM beforehand but I love their song Hands Up. It's a bop haha.
