I got BAMBOOZLED here! This track did a good job tricking me into thinking it was in the major key and both tracks are equally exciting in their own way!

I will say it's a bummer that they have since disbanded. Hopefully they all get a chance to start a solo career somehow.

So glad you liked it! Them disbanding was definitely disappointing. It came after the release and promotion of their I Miss My EP. They still released an EP of English language versions of some of their songs and did a final North American tour late last year. Which is fairly unusually. A lot of time when a kpop group announces disbanding that is it, you don't get any content after that. Kpop is of course very competitive. Traditionally there have been the big three companies (SM, Jyp and YG) but BTS's big success has moved their company Hybe to form a big four. Those companies have lots of money and everyone is interested in what they are doing so their artists certainly have a leg up. Smaller companies it can be more of a strugge. RBW is more of a mid sized company, they started small but they had a lot of success with Mamamoo their initial girl group (who are amazing, Mamamoo and Purple Kiss are my favorite kpop groups). Purple Kiss did pretty decently especially to start, but never seemed to able to grow their fan base appreciably after that. Their sales seemed fairly steady but were tailing off a little. I was actually surprised they disbanded. But there was some rumors that RBW was having some money problems so maybe that was part of it? For the contracts, typically groups have a period of a few years as trainees and then the usual contract once they debut is 7 years, with potential renewals of a few years after that if they go that long. Which kind of matches up with the reports of under contract to 2028. Swan has recently said though that she is no longer under RBW and there is speculation that most of the other girls aren't either. So it sounds like they were let go from their contracts. Going forward as I mentioned all of the members have social media accounts (all are on instagram, 2 or three opened youtube accounts. Some are on twitter or tiktok. Swan and Ireh are the most active, frequently doing live chats with fans. Swan, Goeun and I think Chaein have all released covers on youtube. Swan and Yuki both had OSTs (songs related to TV shows or movies) released recently but it is thought those were created back when Purple Kiss was still active. So several of them at least seem to still be interested in music. The only one who indicated they may be going to something else is Dosie, one of the main dancers, who recently said she was thinking of trying to do something in the fashion industry. I am still hoping all the members that want to can still release more music in the future. If I hear more I will let you know.
