K-pop group MissA will be ending its seven-year career, its agency JYP entertainment said Wednesday.

The announcement did not come as a surprise, as the originally four-piece group only consisted of Suzy and Fei, who renewed their contracts with JYP in August this year and May last year, respectively.

Industry insiders had also anticipated that MissA’s disbandment was only a matter of time, with the group taking a long break since the release of its EP “Colors” in 2015.

Former members Jia and Min left the group in May last year and November this year, respectively. Miss A is the latest K-pop girl group to break up in recent years, following 4Minute, 2NE1 and Kara, which broke up last year, and Sistar and Wonder Girls, which parted ways earlier this year.

After debuting in 2010 with the award-winning hit “Bad Girl Good Girl,” Miss A rose to stardom with songs such as “I Don’t Need a Man,” “Hush” and “Colors.” Suzy and Fei have been focusing on their individual careers since the other two members’ departures. Suzy has established herself as an actress, while Fei made her solo debut in July last year.
