2004: Debut with TRAX, Military Enlistment

See also: TRAX (band)

On July 20, 2004 TRAX released their debut single "Paradox". They held their first concert on July 26 at Ziller Hall and held their second concert on July 31.

They released the mini album Cold-Hearted Man on January 25, 2010. It contains songs written and composed by both Typhoon and Kim Jung-mo (X-Mas), and features artists such as SHINee's Key, Wheesung and T-MAX's Shin Min-chul.

He enlisted enlisted for two years of mandatory military service, on 25 October 2012. They were originally schedule to enlist together, but Jung-mo's scoliosis condition and a fractured collarbone delayed his enlistment. He served non-active duty as a public service worker for 23 months after completing four weeks of basic training.[1] Due to the bandmembers' enlistment in the military, TRAX went on an indefinite hiatus.

In July 2015, TRAX performed together again at the SM Town Live World Tour IV in Japan, and at the SM Town Live World Tour V in 2016.

They made their comeback stage on M Countdown on April 16.[3]
