Check out these 7 K-Pop girl groups who experienced the ‘7 years curse’

If you are interested in the curious curses in the K-Pop industry, you have to check out these 7 K-Pop girl groups who, despite their success, talent, and effort, experienced the ‘7 years curse’ and their stories that saddened all their fans.

1. 2NE1: This K-Pop act debuted in 2009 and managed to achieve worldwide success, but this did not save them from controversies, as in 2014 they were forced to go on hiatus due to Park Bom’s drug scandal, and after their 7th year, Minzy decided not to renew her contract, leading them to disband a few months later.

2. 4Minute: This girlgroup also debuted in 2009 and had a successful career until they had unsuccessful contract renewal negotiations, which led to their disbandment in 2016, which was the exact year of their seventh anniversary of debut.

3. SISTAR: After debuting in 2010, these girls were none other than the Queens of Summer, until they disbanded due to Hyolyn’s desire to prioritize her solo career in 2017 when they release a song to say goodbye to their fans.

4. Miss A: This K-Pop act also suffered the curse, as despite their big successes in the industry when they achieved their 7th year, in 2017, they disbanded due to the members Jia and Min refusing to renew their contracts with JYP.

5. KARA: Although this K-Pop group, who debuted in 2007, did not disband at their 7th year, they were also victims of the curse, as in 2014 they faced some problems when members Nicole and Jiyoung did not renew their contracts with DSP Media. They continued as a 4th member group until their disbandment in 2016.

6. Wonder Girls: This girlgroup debuted in 2007 and suffered the 7th year curse in 2014 when members Sunye and Sohee didn’t renew their contracts with JYP. They reformatted and promoted successfully until their disbandment in 2017.

7. Girls’ Generation: Despite these girls who debuted in 2007 becoming a worldwide success and haven’t disbanded until now, they did not save the 7th year cursed, as in 2014 Jessica’s departure from the group caused a scandal and a major rift in the fandom, but they continued stronger than ever.
