After School

After School (Korean: 애프터스쿨) is a South Korean girl group under the label of Pledis Entertainment. The group had their public debut alongside label mate Son Dam Bi in 2008. The group eventually made a proper debut on 17 January 2009 with the first single, "Ah!". Later that year, Uee joined the group, and After School released a second single, "Diva". Their official fanclub is called "Play Girlz".




The band consists of Park Kahi (birth name Park Ji Young (Hangul: 박지영)); Kim Jung Ah (Hangul: 김정아); Lee Joo Yeon (Hangul: 이주연); Rebecca Kim (Hangul: 김레베카); Uee (birth name Kim Yoo Jin (Hangul: 김유진)); Im Jin Ah (Hangul: 임진아); Oh Hye Rin (Hangul: 오혜린) and Park Soo Young (Hangul: 박수영)



In Fall 2009, Soyoung left the group, which led to the addition of two members, Raina and Nana. The group then released "Neo Ttaemune" (Korean: "너 때문에", "Because of You"), which became their first chart-topping single. In March 2010, After School released their 3rd Single called "Bang!" with the addition of 8th member, Lizzy.
