Where is Kiss&Cry Now? Status of Singers Behind K-pop Hit 'Domino Game'
Despite their successful debut in 2014, Kiss&Cry unofficially disbanded shortly after in the same year.
Eight years after parting ways, where are the members now?
In January 2014, Winning Insight Media introduced their new girl group Kiss&Cry, comprised of four members: Bohye, Haena, Dia and Yumi.
Although the group initially received attention for having members who are already debuted as idols excluding Haena, the group established success after the release of their 2014 hit digital single, "Domino Game."
Kiss&Cry, who were rookies at that time was specifically praised for their strong, powerful vocals as well as dance skills, on par with top girl groups. Their concept also gained interest from K-pop fans for having a sexy concept that is not overdone.
Following the K-pop hit beyond Korea, Kiss&Cry dropped their follow-up song, "Revenge," in May 2014, but it unfortunately didn't surpass the achievements of their debut track.
Despite their potential, the quartet unofficially disbanded after Haena left the group in September due to contract expiration. Since then, the remaining three members continued on their own paths.
