Happy 11th Anniversary, Sistar! (+ mini roundup)

[memei5.livejournal.com]

For their 11th anniversary, the girls of Sistar were kind enough to give us a some content, including an OT4 Instagram live!

After months of no interactions beyond Dasom and Soyou laughing about a Sistar reunion on Clubhouse, hearing Bora's laughter in the back of Soyou's YouTube video and Hyolyn and Bora gyming together, the girls finally convened (virtually) for their 11th anniversary!

Hyolyn's Vlogs and VLives

Hyolyn is active on social media again for the first time in a while, following some concerning posts she made after negative comments.

She released a vlog earlier this week - translating herself between Korean and English - and showed bits of her daily life - including her personal studio, a snippet of new music and her English lessons.

She's also recently set up a Bubble account and then followed it up with a VLive for her 11th anniversary, singing songs by Sistar and from her solo albums, cooing over pretty photos of Dasom and trying not to be distracted by her cats.

She mentioned that she was on a group call with the other members earlier and she wanted to do an Instagram live but didn't know how to.

After some technical issues (the others setting up an Instagram live while Hyolyn was still on V App, Dasom lagging and them somehow ending up on two different lives on two different accounts) they finally managed to all come together on Bora's account.

Instagram Live and personal messages

The girls each took a chorus of one of their iconic singles, featuring Bora singing, Soyou switching to an avocado and Dasom still lying on her couch 6 years after Sistar's Showtime.

Happy 11th anniversary, eternal queens of summer! Omona, what's your favorite Sistar track?

Comments

I feel like everyone is going to say 'loving u' so let ME say it first! lol

Also, 'I swear' is very underrated. that said, still a LITTLE heartbroken that this was never a full track -



and these promoted tracks!! -





lastly, this long forgotten second title track -

[memei5.livejournal.com]

Wow and Miss Sistar really deserved to be full singles!

I know they like to pretend Shady Girl doesn't exist but that song was honestly amazing and I still listen to it while cleaning - the dance really helps

[myungung.livejournal.com]

I too love I Swear, probably one of my favourite tracks from them. justice for the song because they spent the budget on the MV and travelling to Guam but it didn't receive as much hype as Loving U or Touch My Body

[aeries-amethyst.livejournal.com]

You know it's funny because I never used to care much for I Swear when it was released, but now I absolutely love it! Definitely one of my fave SISTAR tracks for sure!

[nacomi.livejournal.com]

I remember listening to No Mercy repeatedly



I really enjoyed their ep “Alone“

As well as their sub-unit Sistar19.

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

SISTAR is one of my musical regrets, insomuch that I did not appreciate them nearly enough until it was too late and I'd never be able to see them live.

My favorite song by the quartet is probably I Swear, but the subunit songs I love plenty, too.

[lechuza-yoya.livejournal.com]

Im glad they this!!! they are missed.

[myungung.livejournal.com]

happy anniversary to the girls! glad that they could make time for a reunion and their friendship is still intact. while Sistar had multiple hit singles, my fave ones were their summer follow ups and the mature ones (Alone, Give It to Me, I Like That).

also shoutout to Soyou for being barefaced on the livestream. Dasom has matured so much and is no longer that awkward maknae anymore

[sweetestbliss1.livejournal.com]

My fav from them is Give It to Me! Such a bop. So catchy and loved their outfits too

[frequency.livejournal.com]

tbh touch my body is my favorite sistar song, lol. though i'm also pretty partial to alone, give it to me, i swear, and i like that. shady girl is cute too.

[em-cavey.livejournal.com]

Forever summer queens 💗💗💗💗

I miss them a lot, Bora and Soyou are two of my favorite gg members ever and they remain flawfree. Soyou's still pretty active but I miss seeing Bora on TV, she’s so stunning and such a sweetheart

It’s boring lol but my favorite songs are still probably Loving U and Touch my Body

[aeries-amethyst.livejournal.com]

Soyou remains my fitspiration! Yaaaaassssssssss my fitness queen! *O*

Since everyone is listing their fave SISTAR tracks, mine are: Give it to Me, I Like That, I Swear, Touch My Body and Loving U.

[broadcities.livejournal.com]

sistar was almost a genre on their own! i think my fave tracks are i like that, give it to me, alone, ma boy and so cool

[carmine-pink.livejournal.com]

Their friendship is always so nice to see!

My favorite Sistar track? I have lots.

Title: Touch My Body, Shake It, Loving U, Give It to Me, Alone, I Swear, So Cool, Shady Girl, Ma Boy
B-side: The Way You Make Me Melt, Hold On Tight, If U Want

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

I miss Sistar so much. There was a time when they were my no.1 girlgroup (sorry Soshi!). They disbanded way too early, we have groups like BP who only come back once a year so Sistar could have done the same.

The only thing that bothers me are the rumours about Hyorin's bad personality.

[kcaomei.livejournal.com]

recently missing Sistar hours re-opened for me :( honestly i think i miss them most every time summer weather arrives

my fave track is definitely Bad Boy (feat Mad Clown) but to name some others: I Like That, Alone, Go Up, One More Day, Shake It... my fave album is Shake It lol

[volume1995.livejournal.com]

awww happy anniversary!! i only got into them around i swear but i really liked the bond they had, they seemed like genuine friends

also my favorite tt is give it to me / I like that and my fav b-sides are up and down, kkeun (the track pikapika linked lmao) and a girl in love from the second sistar19 album

[ursulavosyem.livejournal.com]

Wow 11 years... happy anniversary to them! Touch My Body was such a great hit. That's probably my fave, but I love so many of their singles like Loving U, Alone, Give it to Me, Shake It, I Like That... I didn't listen to much of their b-sides but the comments here are prompting me to go back and listen!
