Their performance that day was met with praise, with many concert spectators and fans considering them to be the next TVXQ.

MBLAQ's first single, "Oh Yeah", was released to the public through a music video on October 14, 2009, together with their debut single album, Just BLAQ. Afterwards, they had their broadcast debut on Mnet's M! Countdown, performing their single. The group also made their Japanese debut on May 3, 2011. They held an event at the Kanagawa Lazona Kawasaki Plaza, which gathered a reported 10,000 fans. A day later, on May 4, they released their first Japanese album Your Luv. The album immediately reached first position at the Oricon Daily Charts, selling more than 11,000 copies.

The group has starred in various South Korean variety shows as guests. They also had their own variety shows such as Mnet's MBLAQ – The Art of Seduction, MBC's MBLAQ's Idol Army, Mnet's Sesame Player and KBS's Hello Baby Season 5.

Since their debut, MBLAQ has released three single albums, six extended play albums, one studio album, one repackaged studio album, and two EPs in Korean. They also released one compilation album, four singles and four DVDs in Japanese.

Actor

On April 25, 2017, Yang signed a contract with Will Entertainment to start afresh as an actor. At Will Entertainment, Yang will not only act, but also release music and actively promote himself in various ways.[citation needed]
