Following their last reunion in 2019, Dal Shabet, unfortunately, continues their hiatus to date. Three years after the release of "Be Ambitious," where are the members now?
In January 2011, the second gen-girl group Dal Shabet, originally comprised of six members, debuted under Happy Face Entertainment. The group received initial attention for being produced by E-Tribe, the producers behind hit songs SNSD's "Gee" and Lee Hyori's "U-Go-Girl."
Since then, it was not that long until they established a stable fandom (Darlings) and fame, and became notably known for their versatility through tracks including, "Supa Dupa Diva," "B.B.B," "Someone Like U," "Joker" and more.
Despite the success, Dal Shabet failed to break the "7-Year Curse," and the members one by one left the company from 2012 until 2018. Before this, they undergo a lot of member reorganization but later on became inactive after the last release in 2019.
