On the 21st, �Beastly Idols� 2PM held their first high five event at Pacifico Yokohama in Kanagawa in commemoration of their debut single �Take off� where more than 40,000 fans were in attendance! The line in front of the venue stretched for 2 kilometers (~1.24 miles). Taecyeon happily commented, �I�m really surprised at all the fans that came to see us�. The group high-fived each fan from beginning to end without showing signs of fatigue.

The First Press Limited Edition Type A and B as well as the regular edition of �Take off� each contained one random �High Five Event! Special Photocard� (7 in all). Those who had one of the solo cards (6 possible cards) got to high give the member featured on that card.

Taecyeon expressed his desires for their Japanese debut single �Take off�, released on May 18th, �It really means a lot to us to be able to debut in Japan. Definitely support our single �Take off�.�

Chansung enthusiastically commented about their catchphrase �Beastly Idols�, �This is a great honor. Rather than just the Beastly Idol image, we believe we can show a variety of images to everyone in the future�.

A few days ago, the group held their first nationwide tour �2PM 1st JAPAN TOUR 2011 �Take off��. Due to the overwhelming response from fans, the group added an additional performance at the Makuhari Messe Event Hall in Chiba. Junho happily said, �I felt really moved that we were able to add another performance thanks to all of our fans�. Chansung then chimed in calmly, �I�m really happy that the Japanese food I ate during this tour was really delicious�.

Moreover, the group was asked which Japanese word/phrase they�ve remembered lately. Taecyeon said, �killing two birds with one stone�, Nickhun said, �I�m happy thanks to all of you�, Wooyoung said, �Stylish�, Junho said, �Fluffy�, Junsu said, �Chuutoro (medium-fatty tuna). Not ootoro (quality tuna), but chuutoro.� and Chansung finished up with, �comfortably�.� Each of their responses caused the venue to really liven up.

In addition, the group will be making an appearance at �JYP NATION in Japan 2011� at Saitama Super Arena on August 17th and 18th.
