]] From the beginning, GOT7 was a group that JYP Entertainment aimed to promote internationally, with members from Hong Kong, Thailand and the United States. They officially debuted in January 2014 with lead single "Girls Girls Girls". The track’s music video amassed more than a million views in two days, and its choreography featured acrobatic, martial arts-inspired moves.
The song’s mini album, Got It? , was released a few days later. In April, GOT7 had two debut showcases in Japan.
JYP Entertainment announced in May 2014 that GOT7 would have their first comeback in June. Individual member teasers were released one after the other before the mini-album Got Love was released on June 23 with the music video of its title track, "A". GOT7 kicked off their first Japan Tour in October, a few weeks before they made their Japanese debut on October 22 with the single "Around the World".
Less than a month later, GOT7 came back with their first full-length album, Identify, which was released on November 18. "Stop Stop It", the title track, was described as a hip-hop song with heavy bass and an addictive beat.

The event, called "365+", was held at Olympic Park in Seoul. Shortly after, they held an Asia Showcase Tour with stops in Taipei, Shanghai and Hong Kong. They released their second Japanese single "Love Train" on June 10 and came back a month later with mini album Just Right.
The title track of the same name has lyrics that are "an ode to their female fans that assures them their looks and weight are perfect whatever they are".

It was their second album to hit number 1 on the Billboard World Albums Chart and they got their first ever music show win with its title track, "If You Do". The album’s repackage, Mad Winter Edition, was released on November 23 and featured three new tracks along with a remastered version of "If You Do". The group released their first full-length Japanese album Moriagatteyo on February 3.
The tracklist featured songs from their previously released singles, Japanese versions of previous Korean title tracks as well as new tracks.

For the first time, the members contributed to writing and composing many of the tracks.
"Fly", the title track, earned nine music show wins. The group revealed their official light stick, in the shape of a transparent bird with a green light inside, and then, a few days later, they kicked off their first world tour on April 28, in Seoul. Leader JB suffered a spinal disk injury and, additionally to being pulled out of the last music shows performances, he could not participate in the first few concerts, that were held in Seoul.
