SISTAR debuted toward the end of K-Pop’s second-generation and promoted for seven years before they officially disbanded in 2017.

Through the years, the members have remained active in the entertainment industry. Hyolyn founded her own label Brid3, and released multiple solo singles– some featuring fellow K-Pop artists– and competed on the reality program Queendom 2 in 2022.
