History

The original band debuted with Park Jung-hwan, but he left the group after the release of the first album due to disagreement between the members. After his departure, he started his own car dealership.^[4]

On November 11 2011, Park Jung-hwan formally filed a lawsuit against DJ DOC for defamation after comments made by Lee Ha-neul regarding his departure on a television appearance aired November 3 2011 on Happy Together Season 3.^[4][5]

Despite several apologies made by Lee Ha-neul, the lawsuit was not rescinded. On February 22 2012, DJ Doc was cleared of the defamation charges for lack of evidence.^[4][5][6]
