History

2011–2013: "Ma Boy" and ''Gone Not Around Any Longer''

Main article: Gone Not Around Any Longer

Sistar19 is a two-member sub-unit of Sistar under Starship Entertainment. Sistar19 was formed in 2011, with Sistar's main vocalist Hyolyn and rapper Bora. They held their debut performance as Sistar19 on May 5, 2011, on M Countdown with the single "Ma Boy", released that month. Their first mini album entitled Gone Not Around Any Longer was released on January 31, 2013. The lead single of the same name ascended to the top of the Billboard Korea K-Pop Hot 100 chart. In 2013, Sistar19 was nominated in the 2013 World Music Awards.

2023–present: Return and "No More (Ma Boy)"

On November 16, 2023, it was announced that the duo would officially be coming back in January 2024. Later that month, the duo is reportedly scheduled to appear as a guest on the recording of JTBC's entertainment program Knowing Bros, with the episode scheduled to air in January 2024.

In December, the group unveiled their new official logo, designed in black and white with the Sistar19 group name in it. In an interview with fashion magazine Arena Homme +, Bora mentioned that making the decision to be a part of the duo has brought her a sense of stability. Afterwards, Hyolyn sincerely stated that both of them want to convey the image and message that they have drawn and refined based on their genuine feelings and thoughts to those who have been patiently waiting for the past 11 years.

In January, Sistar19 confirmed their comeback with a teaser image released on the 3rd. The teaser features a real-life silhouette of the duo against a red background, accompanied by the title "No More (Ma Boy)" written at the top. Their comeback single "No More (Ma Boy)" was released on January 16, 2024.

In March 2024, Sistar19, through The Recording Academy's digital performance series "Global Spin," delivered a charismatic performance of their new single "No More (Ma Boy)" as a celebration for their return to music after over a decade.
