TRAX was a four-member rock band but now it is currently a three-member South Korean rock band formed in the summer of 2004 by SM Entertainment and formerly produced by X Japan's co-founder Yoshiki. The name "TRAX" stands for "recording tracks," but also stands for the first letter of each member's stage name (Typhoon of the Rose Attack on Xmas). The band made their first public appearance for BoA's eleventh single "Rock With You" in December of 2003. TRAX held its first concert on July 26, 2004 at Ziller Hall. Despite Rose's absence, TRAX continues to work as a threesome with support drummer(s). Jay and JungMo are in a new reality show called "Band of Brothers" which airs on Mnet, they are also join by Heechul and Kangin of Super Junior.
Debut The TRAX is active in both South Korea and Japan. However, the band is not widely recognized in South Korea because the rock genre does not play a big role in the Korean music scene. The band made a brief mark on the Korean charts in 2006 with their song "초우 (初雨)," (First Rain) a rock ballad, from their first album. The band also does not have a strong presence in the Japanese music scene because of the over population of rock groups and the recent flood of Korean singers trying to make their mark in Japan.
On September 3, 2006, Choi Si Won of the group Super Junior filled in as the support drummer for a performance of "초우 (初雨)" on "SBS Inkigayo".
