introduced before their debut by Epik High member Tablo's official Twitter, as
the Hip-Hop group helped with the production of Infinite's debut mini-album First
Invasion, and later through their own TV-show Infinite! You Are My Oppa!!.
Also prior to their debut,
in March 2010, four Infinite' members, L, Sung Jong, Woo Hyun and Sung Kyu,
appeared on Epik High's "Run" music video.
Two months after the release
of their debut mini-album, the song "She's Back" was released as a
digital re-cut single including a remix of the song. In early 2011, Infinite
released their second mini-album Evolution.
Only a few days after their
second mini-album release, the group debuted in Japan with the release of a
rental only single "TO-RA-WA". The single included their Korean debut
song, "Dasi Dorawa", however, it was re-titled for the Japanese
release. A second rental only single was released on February 2011, "She's
Back".
One month later, on March
17, the group released their first Korean single "INSPIRIT", which
included two new songs and a remix. Only one day earlier, on March 16, Infinite
also released their third Japanese rental-only single "BTD (Before the
Dawn)", which featured their second mini-album's, Evolution, lead track.

November 19.
Infinite had their first
solo live concert in Seoul titled Second Invasion on February 11th and 12th of
2012 at the South Korea Olympic Park Handball Arena. Due to their rising
popularity in Japan, they hosted Second Invasion in Japan on February 25th and
26th at the Tokyo International Forum. Tickets to their Korean and Japanese
concerts were sold out under ten minutes. Due to the popular demand of their
successful concert, INFINITE held an encore concert on April 1st titled Second
Invasion Evolution. Tickets were also sold out immediately.
The group made their Korean
comeback with their third mini-album, Infinitize and its title song,
"Chugyeokja" in May 2012, achieving six consecutive #1's on various
