Togeworl (투개월, also known as Two Months) is a South Korean folk pop duo, who formed in

Superstar K3 singing competition, placing third. The duo went on temporary hiatus in 2013, and vocalist Lim Kim
debuted as a solo musician.

Biography

The duo consists of vocalist Lim Kim (

Superstar K3.[2] He agreed, and they auditioned together as Togeworl, meaning two months in Korean. They chose the name after only knowing each other for two months.[3] They auditioned with the songs "Virtual Insanity" by Jamiroquai
and "Romantico" by Tete.

Togeworl managed to pass the audition, and flew to

Gaon Singles Chart,[5][6] selling more than 2,000,000 music downloads in 2011.[7] Eventually Togeworl finished third in the competition, behind Ulala Session and Busker Busker.[8]

After the competition, Kim and Do remained in South Korea, where they continued to receive musical training and signed a contract with

TVN variety show The Romantic.[9]

Togeworl planned to debut properly in 2013, however, Do Dae-yoon had to return to the United States, due to issues with graduating high school.[10] Because of this, it was decided that Lim Kim should debut as a solo artist before Togeworl reunited.[4]

On May 24, 2013, Togeworl released a single called "Number 1," celebrating their two-year anniversary. In June, Lim Kim debuted as a solo musician, and her song "All Right" reached number two on

Gaon's singles chart.[5] She released a full-length album, Goodbye 20, in November 2013.[11]
