es, I am back with my top 10 favorite girl groups. It’s been awhile since I did my Top 10 Guy groups so if you haven’t seen it, check it out. This list contains my favorite girl groups in the kpop industry. It wasn’t as hard to make this list as it was for the boy groups because there aren’t a lot of girl groups who I love. So this list contains the ones I do love and wait for a comeback every time. So starting with number 10:
At number 10 we have Spica

Boa

Bohyung

Jiwon

Juhyun

Narae
Spica debuted in 2012 with the song “Potently”. The first song I ever heard from them was “Painkiller”. It was so catchy and I swear I listened to it a million times a day. I never looked into the anymore than that even though I kept telling myself that I needed to. I listened to a few more songs after that but nothing pulled my attention back to them until they released “Tonight”. The music video and the song itself is wonderfully made. I have announced that “Tonight” is my feel-good song when I need a pick me up and trust me, this song works. I feel like they’re underrated in Korea because they don’t fit the normal girl group standards but that’s what makes them awesome. They have a unique color to them and I’m looking forward to what they in store for the future. Spica contains members Boa, Juhyun, Narae, Jiwon, and Bohyung. They are under B2M Entertainment along with Lee Hyori. They have released 3 singles and 3 EP’s. It’s rumored that they’re going to release a full album at the end of the year.
At number 9 we have Brown Eyed Girls

JeA

Miryo

Narsha

Ga In
They debuted in 2006 and are probably a group with some of the oldest members today. I believe the first song I listened by them was “Sign”. It was actually a song I favored at the time but since they weren’t really promoting when I became a fan, I lost interest in them. In 2011 they finally came back with they’re album “Sixth Sense”. The title song became my most played song on my IPod at the time. They are a group I definitely love to see more of.
BEG (Brown Eyed Girls) contains members JeA, Miryo, Narsha, and Ga In. All of which have ventured out into their solo careers. Under the name BEG they have 4 albums and 3 EP’s. It’s rumored that they will make a comeback in 2013 sometime and I cannot wait! I hope it’s something just as catchy as Abracadabra and Sixth Sense.

At number 8 we have Girl’s Day

Yura

Sojin

Minah

Hyeri
They debuted in 2010 with members Sojin, Minah, Jihae, Jis Un and Jiin. However in 2010 it was announced that member Jisun and Jiin would leave the group and be replaced by two new members. Jisun will study music more to find her own character in music and Jiin is attracted to music. Two days later on September 14 the two new members were announce. Yura and Hyeri.
I believe the first song I heard from them was ‘Twinkle Twinkle’ and I was automatically hooked. They song was catchy and I found myself singing the chorus constantly. It’s still one of my favorite songs by them along with ‘Hug Me Once’. They’re a girl group that goes for a cutesy image but I honestly could not see them doing any other image.
They have released 2 albums and 3 EP’s. They made their comeback earlier in the year so I don’t know if they’re going to make another later this year. I hope so because I want another catchy song to listen to!

At number 7 we have 4Minute

Gayoon

HyunA

Jihyun

Jiyoon

Sohyun
Debuting in 2009 with Jihyun, Gayon, Jiyoon, HyunA andSohyun they are one of the first girl groups I listened to. ‘HuH’ and ‘I My Me Mine’ became an instant favorite.
Member HyunA is pretty much the only member most people think of when they hear 4Minute. I don’t hate her;HyunA is actually one of my favorite members. I just wish we saw the other members more and that they would stop using HyunA as a sex icon so much. In early 2013 a sub-unit was formed, ‘2Yoon’ with members Gayoon andJiyoon. I admit I wasn’t really thrilled with the song but I was glad that other members were being seen.
They have 5 EP’s and 1 album. My favorite songs from them are ‘Heart 2 Heart’, ‘Volume Up’, ‘I My Me Mine’, and ‘Mirror Mirror’. They have also reached into the Japanese marked with 1 album and a compilation album. I hope to see more of them in the future and hopefully another catchy song like ‘Volume Up’.
(check out their profile here)
At number 6 we have Girl’s Generation or SNSD

Hyoyeon

Jessica

Seohyun

Sooyoung

Sunny

Taeyeon

Tiffany

Yoona

Yuri
They debuted in 2007 with members Taeyeon, Jessica, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona andSeohyun. They are one of the many faces of kpop. A group of talented girls that I hope I see more of with songs like ‘Gee’, ‘Oh’ and ‘Hoot’.
I’m almost certain they are the first girl group I ever listened to and the first song was ‘Oh’ and automatically became my favorite. They usually do the cutesy image but it’s something that I think that fits them well. They have 4 Albums and 3 EP’s. They have ventured into the Japanese marked back in 2011 and 2012.
They came back in early 2013 with “I Got A Boy”. A song that I have a love-hate relationship with. What about you? I kind of hope they do another concept like ‘Gee’, ‘Oh!’, ‘Hoot’, or even ‘Tell Me Your Wish’. But I can only hope.

At number 5 we have F(X)

Amber

Krystal

Luna

Sulli

Victoria
They debuted in 2009 with members Victoria, Amber, Luna, Sulli and Krystal. The first song I ever heard by them was “Nu Abo” and was a song I walked around singing all the time. This group is a lot different than others. They’re style is definitely different too. But I like it. It’s what pulls me to them. All the members are different and unique which brings color to the group.
They’ve released 2 albums, a repacked album, 2 EP’s and 2 singles. Some of my favorite songs by them are ‘Nu Abo’, ‘Beautiful Stranger’, and ‘Hot Summer’. They haven’t made a comeback for 2013 yet but I’m so looking forward to it!
Krystal has ventured out into acting in 2010, Victoria was casted on We Got married with Nichkhun from 2PM, Lunabecame a regular member on Star King and Sulli acted in “To the Beautiful You”. I hope they have much more success in the future and I will continue to support them!
(check out their profile here)
At number 4 we have Sistar

Bora

Dasom

Hyorin

Soyou
Debuting in 2010 with Bora, Soyou, Hyorin and Dasomand seemed to see a rise in their popularity in 2012 with songs “Alone” and “Loving U”.
This group is definitely one of my top favorites. I’m glad to see their rise in fame because all of their voices are so beautiful! Their song ‘Alone’ is definitely my favorite. It’s something I can sing along to easily or just dance horribly to. (kekeke)
Since debut they have released 2 albums, 2 EP’s and 3 single albums. The members have ventured out into television. Appearing on Immortal song 2, Invincible Youth 2, Dream High 2, Running Man, Shut Up Family and many more. I hope to see their rise in fame as they are a very talented group.
(check out their profile here)
At number 3 we have Miss A

Fei

Jia

Min

Suzy
Fei, Jia, Min, and Suzy debuted in 2010 under the name Miss A with the song “Bad Girl Good Girl”. It was an instant success and they became a popular rookie group that year. They have released 1 album, 2 EP’s and 2 single albums since debut and have seen much success since then.
Some of my favorite songs from them are ‘Breathe’, ‘Touch’, ‘Good Bye Baby’ and of course their debut song ‘Bad Girl Good Girl’. For 2013 though we have not seen a comeback from them but I’m really hoping we see one soon! :)
Member Suzy has seen a huge success in her acting career and seems to be a favorite amongst fans. I hope to see the member’s branch out into their solo careers to see their different music styles.
(check out their profile here)
At number 2 we have T-ara

Boram

Eunjung

Hyomin

Jiyeon

Qri

Soyeon
I know, some of you may be asking what the hell is wrong with me. This group went through a dark period last year with the bullying controversy but it’s something we may never know the truth about and it doesn’t mean that they have some really catchy songs.
They released their first song in 2009 for the soundtrack of Korean drama ‘Cinderella Man’. The members at that time included Jiae, Jiwon, Eunjung, Hyomin and Jiyeon. However, Jiae and Jiwon withdrew from the group before they’re official debut. Boram, Soyeon and Qri were added in July 2009 for T-ara’s debut. Unfortunately T-ara didn’t seem to see a lot of popularity until 2011 with the song “Roly-Poly”, from then on they saw a huge rise in their popularity.
In July 2010 member Hwayoung was added but she later departed in July 2012 after the Bullying Scandal came to light. We won’t ever know what really happened and only the girls themselves will know and will have to live with any consequences that may have happened during that time. Member Areum was added in June 2012 and Daniwas announced to join in December of 2012.
And then in July of 2013 Areum announced she will be leaving T-ara and working on her solo career.
Since the scandal we haven’t really seen much of them until April of 2013 with the debut of sub-unit T-ara N4. I hope we see a comeback for 2013 as a whole group but maybe that’s asking for too much. Anti-Fans may not be so willing to accept them coming back just so soon.
(check out their profile here)
At number 1 we have 2NE1

CL

Dara

Minzy

Park Bom
This group has been my ultimate favorite for ever pretty much. They have an image that says they don’t care what you think. Have you heard their song “I Am the Best”? Obviously they’re confident in their abilities if they release a song like that. I have loved almost every song they have released and cannot wait for their comeback in 2013.
They debuted in 2009 with member CL, Park Bom, Daraand Minzy. All four members have their own colors but when they come together they seem to be able to easily transition to any concept image. They have released 1 album and 2 EP’s. I really hope they release a lot more in the future but they are busy with other things. They’ve ventured out into the Japanese market and are working with Will.I.Am for an American debut.
I hope for great success when they break into the American market because they are bad ass and I hope American’s can see and like that too.
