They were the winners of the Asayan audition (similar to the American Idol series) in 2000 organized by Sony Music Entertainment Japan.

Their first single "Pieces of a Dream" debuted on March 3, 2001, winning the best selling single in the same year (over 2 millions). Most of the singles released reached #1 in Oricon chart in Japan; and all 5 albums reached #1 in the Chart on the same day when they were released. Their #1 streak was taken off by the Kinki Kids' H album, scoring them a #2 rank for Fo(u)r.
