JTL (제이티엘) was a South Korean dance music group, consisting of the former H.O.T members who did not stay with SM Entertainment- Jang Woo Hyuk (장우혁), Tony An and Lee Jae Won (이재원). The group was named after the initials of the members' stage name. After the release of their second album Run Away, the group have been inactive for 7 years and the band members are each pursuing solo careers. When the group debuted in 2001 with single A Better Day, which covered a 2001 song A Better Day by Norwegian band Multicyde, again based on the 1977 Norwegian song Vårsøg, member Tony An claimed that promoting their song has had been difficult due to strained relationship with Lee Soo Man, the producer of SM Entertainment. Lee blocked the music video from various Korean entertainment broadcasts which drew angry reactions from the group's fans, some of whom egged the building of the company in southern Seoul. The members of the group also had strained relationships between 강타 and 문희준 after the two chose to stay with SM Entertainment. However, after appearances on 'X-Man', it appears that Tony and Kangta are on good terms the same goes for Moon Hee Jun and Jang Woo Hyuk who both appeared on variety show Heroine. In 2003 the group won the favorite artist of Korea at the MTV Asia Awards. Read more on Last.fm.
