Editor's note

3, the Korean trio that found its voice in darkness

A boy band that started with pop hits before shifting toward heavier, more conceptual rock.

If you only know 'You Call Me Baby,' try 'Blood On The Blankets.' It shows how far they traveled. 'Rabid Animals' is the other one that captures their later mood.

Most K-pop groups don't pivot from chart-topping singles like 'You Call Me Baby' to songs with titles like 'Blood On The Blankets' and 'Dogs of War.' 3 did. Their later work, 'Rabid Animals,' 'Bloodwork,' 'Fable', reads like a tracklist for a different band entirely, one built on gothic imagery and rock weight instead of bright pop hooks. That turn makes them a genuine oddity in their scene.

They debuted in 2012 with 'Trash,' but 2015's 'You Call Me Baby' was the hit that stuck. After a member left in 2017 and military service paused things, they came back in 2020 with 'Don't Cry,' then leaned fully into the darker sound heard on 'The End Is Begun' and 'Destroy The Map.'

The South Korean boy band 3 formed in 2012 under DSP Media with members Park Ji-hun, Lee Sang-baek, and Shin Won-ho. Their debut single 'Trash' didn't catch on, but the 2015 release 'You Call Me Baby' became a major hit, topping charts and establishing their presence. The group followed with songs like 'Over and Over' and 'Fantasy' and albums including 'Present' and 'Midnight'.

Lee Sang-baek left the group in 2017, and the remaining members enlisted for military service in 2018, putting 3 on hiatus. They reunited in 2020 after completing their service and released the single 'Don't Cry.' Their later work includes songs such as 'Blood On The Blankets' and 'Dogs of War.'
