[The Fact｜Reporter Park Ji-yoon] Hyorin, who led a one-person entertainment agency and was active as a solo singer, and actress Bora, who had built up her filmography, put aside their respective careers for a while and came together as SISTAR 19. Although 11 years have passed, the class has not changed and is ‘Cool Unnies’

SISTAR 19 released their new single ‘NO MORE(MA BOY)'(No More Ma Boy)’ on the 16th. Prior to this, the two met with

First, Bora said, “I feel excited, worried, excited, burdened, and all kinds of emotions,”and Hyorin started by saying, “I think it will be so fun and I’m looking forward to it because I’ll be working with a member after working as a solo artist.”

The two then expressed their thoughts on working together as SISTAR 19 for the first time in 11 years. Bora said, “Unlike in the past, we now have more time to share everything from concepts and activities to personal feelings. “It was comfortable before, but I felt more comfortable and closer,” said Hyorin, adding, “I always made decisions alone when I was working as a solo artist, but now that I’m with you, I feel more secure.” She boasted of their even stronger friendship.

SISTAR (Hyorin, Bora, Soyou, Dasom) debuted in 2010 with the single album ‘Push Push’ and ‘SHAKE IT’ ‘LOVING U’ ‘TOUCH MY BODY’ She established herself as an irreplaceable ‘summer queen’ by making numerous songs such as summer hits.

Among them, Hyorin and Bora formed Sistar 19, which had a differentiated concept that crossed the line between girl and lady, and released the debut single ‘Ma Boy’ in 2011 and the single ‘Ma Boy’ in 2013. 39;Released ‘Because it’s not there’. In particular, they created a milestone in the unit world by embodying a charm different from SISTAR by melting the love and emotions that can only be felt at this time into their music, using the theme of innocence and anxiety symbolically shown by the age of 19.

In the meantime, Hyorin and Bora constantly exchanged opinions about SISTAR 19’s activities, and the timing of the proposal from the company coincided well with the time when they had some free time, so they released a new album. Hyorin said, “As it’s been a while since we’ve been together, I hoped it would come out like a gift in the New Year. “We are a unit that is not limited by seasons,” he added.

‘Ma Boy’ and ‘Because There’s No’ are songs that create even more synergy between Hyorin’s appealing voice and Bora’s powerful rap, with an addictive chorus that you can immediately follow once you see them. Even though some time has passed, the performance is still receiving a lot of love.

Therefore, SISTAR 19, which returned after a long time, had no choice but to repeatedly worry about showing a new appearance while maintaining the unit’s colors. Hyorin recalled, “I thought about a song that would be liked by many people without being compared to the previous two songs.”

“We can’t ignore the flow, but we didn’t think we could show our colors by following it all. I looked for music that was tuned to the right level. This song doesn’t go with the flow, but it’s also not the style of music we’ve done in the past. There is weight to the instrumental parts and vocal tone. I thought it would be nice to convey coolness, confidence, and charisma through small gestures. “I liked the weight.” (Hyorin)

This title song ‘NO MORE (MA BOY)’ is a song that is an extension of ‘Ma Boy’, and starts with a sweet string sound, followed by a sophisticated and heavy bass and a punchy melody. The drum beat unfolds. In particular, the simple but addictive hook melody is attractive, and the lyrics contain a calm and cool feeling of letting go at the end while not avoiding the pain of breaking up with someone you love. Hyorin composed the title song and included the song ‘SAUCY’ He contributed by participating in writing lyrics.

Bora, who wanted to show that she has matured over the past 11 years, explained, “The lyrics themselves can be expressed very strongly, but I thought expressing them calmly and confidently would suit us now.”

The teaser image and video released earlier showed SISTAR 19 transforming into a cowgirl by matching leather, jeans, and a cow hat. This is ‘aimed at you’ The concept was chosen because it goes well with the lyrics. Hyorin said, “Cowgirl was a separate concept, but it seemed to fit well with the song. I felt like I could explain the song appropriately. She confidently said, “It’s a concept that hasn’t been done before.”

On this day, SISTAR 19 first played ‘NO MORE (MA BOY)’ to the reporters, followed by ‘MA BOY”s chair and ‘because there is no’ transparent bench. Following this, he hinted that a table would be used in this song, raising even more expectations for the performance by saying, “The use of objects on stage in all three songs matches well.”

Meanwhile, Hyorin and Bora also mentioned SISTAR’s activities as a whole. All members ‘want to unite’ They say they have feelings, but they cannot help but consider realistic issues and situations. Hyorin said, “Because the four of us are all from different companies, it’s not like we can get together just by heart. “I don’t have anything planned yet, but shouldn’t we get together before it’s too late,” she said emphatically.

SISTAR ended their seven-year career and went their separate ways in 2017. Hyorin opened a one-person agency and continued her active career as a solo artist, while Bora turned into an actress and appeared in ‘Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim 3’ ‘Paper Moon’ He met viewers through various works such as: And the two people who left this path for a while and came together as SISTAR 19 plan to focus on building good memories with the fans who have waited a long time rather than on results expressed in numbers.

“I still want to be ‘cool sisters” It’s true that I became an older sister than other singers (laughter). It is an activity that has great meaning in itself for the two of us to do. I want to leave behind fun and happy moments. “I want to repay the fans who waited for us.” (Bora)

Lastly, Hyorin said, “Bora unni acted for 7 years, and I worked as a solo artist. He expressed his wish by saying, “I hope that by meeting again like this after each of us walks the path we want to take, we will be refreshed on the path we must take in the future.”
