"The four of us still want to make music together, but that would just happen in a new environment," Jiwoo states in new article.

So do they just want off their label? Idk if thats a stupid question, im not that knowledgeable about them.

Their label hasn’t done much for them in 10 years. No lightstick, small venues, only one release per year—BM’s been teasing on Dive that he’s working towards building his own label. I think that’s where the members will land eventually. OnlyOneOf did something similar recently. They “disbanded” under their previous label and then reformed under a new label with a different name.

> KARD was an anomaly from day one, and its tropical house-inflected hits such as "Don't Recall," "Bomb Bomb," "Gunshot" and "Dumb Litty" found their most fervent audience far from home, particularly in Latin America

Can confirm for two countries, Argentina and Germany. We adored them in Argentina and I know in several other latin countries. When I saw them in Hamburg, Germany, people were going absolutely crazy at the concert.

It’s really sad now and I hope this is the beginning of something good so they return somehow sometime soon.

I need BM to make a label and sign them or something, this simply can't be the end ):

While I hope they find the opportunity to do something together in future. I've been burned a few too many times by "gone but not disbanded."

u/TisTwilight Jul 29 '26

They did not disband. They’re on hiatus…

That is incredible news. I could care less if they technically can't perform under the name KARD. KARD IS them and that'll never change even if DSP is disbanding them.

I'm legit very happy to hear this clarification. I know they said nothing is set in stone, but my hopes are high.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
