Genre: Pop / Hip-hop
Album: JTL Vol. 1 (2001) Track 1
Watch: MV Live Performance
Comment: After legendary boy group H.O.T broke up, Kangta and Moon Hee Jun were the first to come out with solo albums. The other three members Jang Woo Hyuk, Tony An, and Lee Jae Won later formed the trio JTL, taking from the first letter of their names. While in H.O.T, they were considered the more underrated members as compared to Kangta and Hee Jun, but fans were all surprised how good they were when JTL released their first album "Enter The Dragon" late in 2001. The title song "A Better Day" swept all the charts and became No. 1 song. This song is a remake of an English song with strong eurobeat sound. The Korean version adds JTL's vocal and rapping. JTL released three albums and the group went into hiatus but all three members released solo albums with different styles: Jang Woo Hyuk focus on dance music, Tony An on pop and ballads, Lee Jae Won on hip-hop.
