Afterschool
After School officially debuted in January 2009. Whenever Afterschool comes up, the first thing that comes to most people’s minds is Because of You. Probably because it’s one of the most iconic K-Pop songs of all time. Because of You earned the highly coveted Triple Crown on music shows and became one of the best-selling singles in K-Pop history. The song cemented Afterschool’s status as K-Pop royalty.
Unfortunately, their reign was short-lived. Several sub-units were formed in the year that followed Because of You. Orange Caramel was the most popular of these sub-units. Afterschool had a more mature image, whereas Orange Caramel went for a more cutesy one. Orange Caramel was extremely successful and popular for a number of years. They were so prominent that they overshadowed the main group. All of the members of Afterschool graduated in 2015. After group promotions came to a halt in 2015, all members shifted their focus to individual activities. And the halt never came to an end. Instead, it was Afterschool.
Former member Lizzy confirmed that the band disbanded informally in 2015. And with that, another second-generation legend came to an end.
