The boy group's success extended beyond television, releasing three studio albums: Meteor Rain (2001), Fantasy 4ever (2002), and Waiting for You (2007).

The quartet was active for eight years until they disbanded in 2009, two years after the group was rebranded as JVKV—derived from the initials of their first names—due to copyright issues.
