The group dropped their first EPGot It? on January 20, 2014. The album shot up to the number 1 spot on Billboard's World Albums chart and was number 2 on Gaon Album Chart.

The group released their second mini album Got Love on June 23, 2014 and their first full-length album Identify on November 18, 2014.
Got7's rapper and visual Mark mispronounced or misheard a word that his members were saying in Korean which led him to think it was Igasae. Hence Got7's fan name was made to be IGot7.
