Sistar (Hangul: 씨스타, stylized as SISTAR) is a four-member South Korean girl group under the management of Starship Entertainment. The members are: Hyorin, Bora, Soyu and Dasom.

On May 5, 2011, Hyolyn and Bora made their debut in a sub-group called Sistar19 on M! Countdown with "Ma Boy". The group made their return with their first official album titled So Cool on August 9. After So Cool, Sistar has released "Alone".
Hyorin had auditioned twice for JYP Entertainment beforehand and was accepted on the second try. She was initially planned to debut in a quintet group along with Secret's Jieun , miss A's Min and EXID's Yuzi. Plans, however, fell and she was dropped from the label. She later auditioned for Starship and was accepted. Soyu auditioned for Starship, singing a cover of Navi's "On The Road".[citation needed] Sistar began their group activities on early 2010 before their official debut where they were featured on Céci magazine photo in an England shoot on March 19, 2010 for the clothing company FUBU. They also endorsed Samsung's 'Yepp' phones and each of the members filmed an individual commercial for it.
