The members also wrote letters to their fans. 

To the STAR1s that have always loved and supported SISTAR.

Hello, it\'s SISTAR\'s leader Hyorin. It\'s already been 7 years since SISTAR debuted. The time I spent as SISTAR\'s Hyorin along with SISTAR and my fans was a precious time that I wouldn\'t change for anything else. They were like a dream. Now, the SISTAR members will be going our own ways for our 2nd life. I want to sincerely thank our fans that let us know how happy and lucky we were to sing, to go on stage, to be loved, and to love others. We are putting behind a big sadness and supporting each other\'s dreams, and will be working our best to grow in our own areas. The members and STAR1, who I love, will remain forever in my heart. STAR1 are precious and have always given me abundant love and strength even though I was lacking. Thank you with all my heart. I love you..Bora wrote, 

I told fans every year that we should be happy, and I hope that you were all happy for the seven years you spent with us. The time that I spent with STAR1 and SISTAR members was happy and precious. I think that I couldn\'t show my sincerity to as much as people as I tried to, and my disappointment at not being able to do the best for you as SISTAR gets bigger. When fans told me they got strength from my brightness, I got stronger. I won\'t forget that and keep getting stronger.

Even as I write this, I have so many memories. Now, the members have agreed to support our own road. But it\'s not that we won\'t get to see you again, so I\'ll work to be a good Yoon Bo Ra from now on. All the STAR1 that loved SISTAR and Bora, I was thankful and happy you were with us. Let\'s keep being happy. I love you ^^

It\'s already been 7 years. I think I was happier during happy times and had it better during hard times because of the members and STAR1 that were always next to me. When I look back, I\'m sad and sorry that I couldn\'t spend that much time with our fans. No matter what stage I stand on from now on, I won\'t ever forget this feeling I have for the members and our fans. I love you, I\'m sorry, and thank you. I\'ll let you hear good music. Let\'s all be happy until the last moment.

Hello everyone, it\'s Dasom. It\'s been a while.

I have a lot I want to tell you, but I\'m worried about what to start with.

It\'s been 7 years since SISTAR debuted. I want to first thank everyone who have always supported us and loved us during this long period.

I think I was able to happily finish the 7 years with you, when it could have been hard. And it was also motivation for all of us to grow.

It\'s very sad, but SISTAR has decided to go our separate ways after this album is finished. We received so much love as SISTAR, and we want to give it back bit by bit by ourselves from now on. I will try to communicate more with fans from now on. Please support us. Thank you.

With so many groups disbanding, I\'ve gotta hand it to Shinhwa though. 19 years in the business and they\'re still doing well. RESPECT. I only sincerely wish all of the members of Sistar get to find success in their chosen paths whether it\'s singing, doing variety or acting.

NO WTF I WAS EXPECTING FOR A SUMMER COMEBACK WHY? THEY WERE DOING SO WELL. I CAN NOT PROCESS THIS. WHY MY QUEENS?!?! NO. DISBAND NO PLEASE NO.

THERE IS NO SUMMER WHEN THE QUEENS OF SUMMER ARE DISBANDING. ... MY HEART CANT HANDLET IT. THIS IS TOO MUCH, OH MY FEELS!!! but I will always respect their choice. TT.TT Good luck to My Queens

4Minute, Miss A, and SISTAR... all destroyed because their companies pushed too hard to make one member a success (Hyuna, Suzy, Hyorin) and slept on the rest of the other members. I don\'t think the SISTAR members got it as rough as the ladies of 4Minute and Miss A, but it\'s still sad.

Would say its a bit different for Sistar. The company didn\'t really push Hyorin, but didn\'t really do anything for the others. The members were just doing things on their own ie. features and stuff, but the company didn\'t seem to have any plans for them. Then Hyorin ended up signing with some EDM company or something.

A 5 YEARS RUN for *any* K-pop Group ; is actually a pretty GOOD run overall. LONGER than a LOT of them last. And the ones here lasted 7 YEARS. What happens, is that after 7 YEARS ; it is *likely* that with almost *all* K-pop Groups ; that a *certain* member becomes HIGHER PROFILE than some of the others. And so, when their CONTRACT is ended ; this HIGH PROFILE member has *other* options available ; like say ACTING ROLES (SUZY comes to mind here). And almost ALL the K-pop Members could WISH to be LEE BYUNG HUN (actor) ; rather than *still* doing the \'K-pop Bop\' at AGE 30 (my view).

Sad news for all STAR1 and all kpop admirers like me! I may not be a bias fan but, my heart goes for those are... It\'s not easy learning about our favorite idols disbanding!  But, hoping one day, they would all come together, reunite or a reunion perhaps doing the same  music they\'ve loved, and we all love to hear!  To all of SISTAR\'s   Hyorin, Bora, Soyu and Dasom, goodluck to whatever endeavors you may take! I\'m definitely sure, all your fans and us likers too, will support you beyond SISTAR! God bless. - from a queen\'s

summers are done, no more summers we only have 3 seasons now

i didnt look through all 300 comments, i usually only look through the first comments

this seems to be coming out of nowhere, but at the same time, i can\'t say i\'m surprised. even though they\'ve been very successful, for a long time now, hyorin has been receiving most of the attention from starship in their group activities. if i were the other members, i would be a little tired of it as well. i can\'t say that\'s the reason, but i\'m sure it contributed at least a little bit. in the end though, i\'m so sad to see them leaving as well. we\'ve been losing a lot of good girl groups lately, and while i haven\'t ever been a hardcore fan of sistar, they were one of the first girl groups i ever listened to, and they\'ve released a lot of iconic songs. i wish them all well in whatever paths they decide to go down
