Some friend of mine said that 2-3 member group (not sub-unit like TTS, Orange Caramel or Sistar19) will never take off. So based on that, do you think these girls would be more successful as a 4 member group?

 

They have pretty voices, but I also find 3 members odd for a group.

 

Why do they say that?  S.E.S. was arguably the first highly successful female group in kpop put together by SM (pre-BoA) and are still well known today. Bada (the former lead vocal) is a successful solo artist now (Eugene and Shoo are both married and have kids). They still get together even now

And can't forget their photo shoot together earlier this year

If you guys could ask Purfles something, what are you dying to know?  Anything come to mind?

 

In no particular order:

 

When did they become interested in music/becoming singers/performing?

How were they scouted by Crescendo Music?  Was the agency formed around them?

What kind of music do they listen to?  Do they have a favorite song?

How fluent are Eunyong and Geonhee in English? (we already know Wooyoung is)

Do they have any siblings?  And are they younger, older, etc.

Are they friends with any other idols?  (I'm personally curious if Geonhee is friends with Uji from BESTie)

Is there a particular variety or music show they'd like to be on?

What are their plans for the future? (immediate and/or long term)

 

That's all I can think of for now. Sounds like you're getting to do an interview with them finally :)

They've promoted for 2 months straight. Something tells me they won't be making a comeback till either the end of 2016, or possibly 2017

 

Not exactly.  They didn't get booked onto the music shows before the end of the year, but at least they're giving them an opportunity now because there is space and not a lot of comebacks. I think we'll see them back at least once more before the year is over. I think MrJKpop was going to do an interview with them as well, so we'll have to wait and see on that.

I've never seen groups in Immortal Song.

 

OMG....pur....fols?

 

I always pronounced it Pur - fleas

 

Mamamoo was on Immortal Song not that long ago.  I know there have been other groups.

 

Yeah, it's an actual word (click on the little sound icon)

MrJKpop has always pronounced it correctly since purfling is the narrow decorative edge of string instruments (he builds guitars too).

I happen to know because my dad and uncle both play guitar and I was in band/orchestra for a number of years through elementary and high school.

Is this group still alive? I had high hopes for them after 1,2,3 and A Bad Thing.

 

They're still alive on social media. We haven't heard anything about a comeback though :(

 

This is one of my favorite performances

I've watched their past live performance videos, I feel they still lack experience or confidence during those live singing, Wooyoung was shaky. But they have so much potential... I hope they get a better song in the next cb, if they've not disbanded

 

Given the fact that quite a few of their social media posts have included each other and there has been no announcement stating so, I'd say they haven't disbanded. Crescendo Music seems to be a small independent label with no other groups (and also probably very little money)

Hmm...that is...disturbing. It used to have the promotional picture for Bad Girl similar to on their fancafe (which is still there). Everything else looks the same though including the little music clip, so either it's a glitch or they're replacing the mages? Because why else would they remove only the picture? Either way though, it makes me nervous...

I think they'll be updating the page soon. Everything else is still there except the promotional image.

Geonhee's new name is gh__v for those of you who might've tried going to an old saved link and got a heart attack like me

Freesia, the flower of friendship 

 

People are having a heart attack that she changed her Instagram name and think it means the end of Purfles :(

On a stranger note, I've been regularly checking on Purfles official site since the BG picture disappeared and this link popped up (http://www.crescendomusic.co.kr/index/front). It leads to a stripped down version of Heyne's site, but with this interesting picture under the albums tab:

 

C6v8ckVVwAAaT9W.jpg

 

(identical to the album section of Purfles' site only with different text for Heyne's older song LOVE007)

 

I'm not sure what that means or what this branch of their site even is, but I'm starting to think the picture slideshow broke on Purfles site and they just haven't noticed it because they never freaking update it. 

 

That's interesting and unfortunately, sounds like the more plausible explanation than them updating it for a comeback.
