“After School (group)”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

After School (Hangul: 애프터스쿨), stylized as AFTERSCHOOL in Japan, is a South Korean girl group formed by Pledis Entertainment with an admissions and graduation concept.^[1]^[2] The group's current lineup consists of Raina, Nana, E-Young and Kaeun. As of September 2018, After School has had eleven members who have joined and "graduated" since their debut as a quintet in 2009.

After School officially debuted in January 2009 with "AH!" from the single album New Schoolgirl. Following the addition of Uee in April of that year, they released "Diva", which won the "Rookie of the Month" award at the Cyworld Digital Music Awards.^[3] Pledis Entertainment then announced the graduation of Soyoung, before adding Raina and Nana for the release of "Because of You" in November 2009, which was an instant hit and became a commercial and critical success for the group, with the song winning a "triple crown" on SBS Inkigayo and was the best selling song of December 2009, eventually becoming one of the best selling K-Pop singles of all time.{{efn|group=upper-alpha|The Gaon Chart was not established until 2010, however by viewing the monthly chart of January 2010, "Because of You" is ranked 30 (down 29), indicating that it was the number 1 song of December 2009.^[4]}}^[5]^[6] Follow-up singles "Bang!", "Shampoo", "Flashback" and "First Love" further consolidated their domestic and international popularity and saw the additions of Lizzy, E-Young and Kaeun, as well as the graduations of original members Bekah and Kahi.^[7]^[8] In 2010, the three newest members at that time formed the group's first subunit, Orange Caramel, and in 2011 a second subunit was formed when the group was split into two teams, A.S. Red and A.S. Blue, for the release of their fourth single album.

In the beginning of 2011, the group signed with Avex Trax to begin their promotions in Japan.^[9]^[10] The group made their first official appearance in Japan by collaborating with singer Namie Amuro for a song from her collaboration album Checkmate!, titled "Make it Happen". The song went onto win Best Collaboration at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards Japan. The group's debut single, a remake of their Korean hit "Bang!", was released in August that year and charted at number seven on Oricon's Weekly Singles Chart.^[11] Follow-up singles "Diva" and "Rambling Girls" / "Because of You" had similar success and helped to establish a fanbase in Japan before the release of the group's debut Japanese album, Playgirlz (2012). Their second Japanese album, Dress to Kill, fronted by the Shinichi Osawa produced singles "Heaven" and "Shh", was released in 2014.

After School received attention for their unique live performances, often incorporating different performance styles into their songs, including drums, tap dancing and pole dancing, which garnered praise from Billboard who referred to the group as the "top performers in K-pop".^[12] The group also ranked number five in Billboard's list of the "Top 10 K-Pop Girl Groups of the Past Decade".^[13] They have also won numerous awards throughout their career, including the Korean Popular Culture and Arts Award and the Idol Music Best of the Best Award in the 19th South Korea Culture & Entertainment Awards, and have sold over 12 million copies of their singles domestically.^[14]

Since 2015, After School has halted group promotions and the members have embarked on individual music, acting and modelling careers.

History

Pre-debut

After School was first formed following Kahi's departure from Korean-American girl group S-Blush,^[15] as Kahi began planning to produce a new group together with the current CEO of Pledis Entertainment.^[16] The first member other than Kahi was Bekah, who was a trainee while Kahi was in S-Blush. With Kahi's recommendation, Bekah was brought from Hawaii to South Korea. They were then introduced to Jungah, followed by Soyoung and Jooyeon, forming a five-member group.

After School as a group first made an unofficial appearance on 29 December 2008 at the SBS Song Festival. Kahi and Jungah performed "Play Girlz" alongside Son Dam Bi whilst the remaining members, Soyoung, Jooyeon and Bekah served as backup dancers for Son Dam Bi's performance at the event.

2009: New Schoolgirl, "Diva" and "Because of You"

In the beginning of 2009, a few days before After School's debut, Pledis Entertainment announced that the group's music concept was heavily influenced by the Pussycat Dolls.^[17] On 15 January 2009, the group released their debut single album, New Schoolgirl.^[18]^[18] The album had three songs: the lead single "Ah!", "Play Girlz" and "Bad Guy" (나쁜놈). On 17 January, After School made their live debut on MBC's, Music Core.^[19] Following promotional activities for "AH!", After School planned to continue to promote New Schoolgirl with "Bad Guy". However, the track was deemed unsuitable and was banned from broadcast because of a single word of profanity was in the lyrics.

During the month of April, the group announced that a new member, Uee, was joining the group.^[20]^[21]^[22]^[23] The group then released their second single, "Diva"^[21] on 9 April 2009.^[22] They first performed the song on 9 April 2009 on M! Countdown.^[24] After School went on to win the "Rookie of the Month" award for the month of April 2009 at the Cyworld Digital Music Awards with the single.^[3]

Two new members were then added to the group, Raina and Nana,^[18] and After School made a comeback on 25 November 2009 with the single "Because of You".^[29]^[30] The song marked a change for the group to a more mature and sophisticated concept,^[29] and became extremely popular, winning three Mutizen awards for the group on SBS' Inkigayo.^[31]^[32]^[33]

The album was a commercial success, peaking at No. 2 on the Gaon Chart with the lead single "Magic Girl" peaking at No. 18.

On 6 December 2010, Pledis Entertainment released Happy Pledis 1st Album that consisted of four tracks: the title song "Love Love Love", "Someone Is You", and instrumental versions of the two songs.
