The group began their entry into the American market in 2009, with lead single "Nobody"; the single became the first song by a Korean group to enter the Billboard Hot 100. They are co-managed in the United States by JYP Entertainment and Jonas Group. They managed to place 4th with "Nobody" on the Canadian single charts for the past 2 weeks of March 2011.
Former member Hyuna (현아) left in June '07 due to health problems. She later joined girl group 4minute which disbanded in 2016. At the end of 2009, Sunmi (선미) left to continue her education. She was replaced with trainee Hyelim. She later on returned to singing with the release of her hit-single "24시간이 모자라" in 2013. With the announcement of Wonder Girls' comeback in 2015, Sunmi rejoined the group. Later in 2015, Sunye (선예) and Sohee (소희) officially withdrew from the group.
On 26 January 2017, Wonder Girls officially disbanded after members Sunmi and Yeeun decided not to renew their contracts. A farewell single entitled, "그려줘", was released on the groups 10th anniversary (10 February).

Wonder Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He thinks about me all the time
He got my love on rewind
Nobody treats him like I do
There's no party if I'm not in the booth
My sound keeps his heart in tune
Like badadadadadadum
He loves me and I love him too
He plays me all the night through
Keeps me spinning and grinning
I'm winning him over from you
Singing lalalalalala
Everyday lalalala
He sings with me lalalala
He knows me he holds me
From intro to fade
'Cause the DJ is mine
And girl you're wasting your time
He only rocks to my music
He loves the way I do it all night
The DJ is mine
(My baby my baby the DJ is mine)

He only rocks to my music
He loves the way I do it all night

Rebekah Sandoval, I was 17 years old when the Wonder Girls had their hit song "Tell Me" in 2007. I became a huge fan and I followed them from then on. Then they tried to break through in America in 2009. I always wondered if people liked them or not and if it was worth all the effort. I'm happy you loved them too and that they got you into K-pop.

I wish they'd tried the UK.
I'd hrard this song before I got into KPop. But at the time didn't know who they were.
In all honesty. I've only been into Wonder Girls for around a year.
So buying second hand albums and singles.

Sarah Song
Tiffany .G Not really. Gangnam style was the biggest hit. Gangnam style music video is the most viewed video on youtube. I think if it wasnt for gangnam style kpop wouldnt be as popular as it is today
