Former member Bella has released a solo song! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3rJB5u5rII
I got that updated on the group’s page that she is now a soloist. For now we are not going to make a solo profile for her, we just have wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to much to do ~ James
Saebin now work as solo singer.

I got that updated – and also wanted to let you know we were recently able to move BarbieD to disbanded with their company removing them from the site entirely
~ Manwon^^
Star Road removing them from the website entirely? By the time Kiwi Band M changed name became BarbieD, they weren’t list on official website.
But since both Saebin and Ruby already remove mention as BarbieD member for long time, for now it save to say BarbieD disbanded.
We moved them to disbanded – but we couldn’t just update because the girls removed the group name from their SNS – we’ve seen many idols do that and remain in the group, we needed more information than just SNS. We look at many, many sources before moving any group to disbanded when their company doesn’t give a statement, we need pretty concrete evidence from many places.
~ Manwon^^
Kiwi Band M now become Barbie D. It seem simply just name changed, not rebranded.

Ruby ig : barbie_d_ruby
Got it updated ~ thank you for letting us know! this group sure has had some big changes since they started
~ Manwon^^
Saebin ig : s2ebini
Sieun ig : artist_sssse
Sieun probably left Kiwi Band M sometimes after March 2018. So far no confirmation from both Star Road or Sieun but all recent post Kiwi Band M on ig or facebook no longer featured Sieun anymore. Sieun also no longer mention and following Kiwi Band M anymore on her ig.
I messaged the company on FB to see if they respond, but it seems like she is out, but the group still follows her, so before we move her I want to double check ~ James
I think the members either changed their stage name or the company changed them to new members since on their official facebook page you can see three members with the names 시은, 루비 and 새빈 with profiles (photo post on May 3rd – profile post are also on their official instagram May 4th and 5th)
The company has change the line-up of the group so many times in the last year. They are treating Kiwi Band M as a new group yet related group (similar to Pure and Pureboy, a few years ago) that we are not touching their profile until Kiwi Band M makes their official debut (which was supposed to happen in July) and then we will update with the official Kiwi Band M lineup, but until then Star Road Ent needs to make up their mind about who is in the group and who isn’t. We will not be touching the Kiwi Band profile until they officially re-debut ~James
Ah I was already wondering what they are doing because I was confused as hell… I don’t like it when companies are doing sth like this… since you mentioned it the whole Pure, Pureboy, Naughty Boys stuff is also confusing and frustrating… thank you for clarifying it 🙂
Kally is a new member of Kiwi Band M too 🙂 It’s on their Facebook page
I am going to hold out on updating kiwii band until the full line-up has been released
~ Manwon^^
Kiwi Band made a comeback yesterday with Let’s Go Together
We did see that already. We follow all of their SNS already so we knew it was coming. Yesterday we spent more than 6 hours playing catch-up on comebacks, it will take us some time to update their page as we are very busy, please be patient. ~James
No problem, take your time
they have new member called Ellie and their fanclub name is Kist^^
Thank you for letting us know! We’ll get both things changed!
~ Manwon^^
they got a new bassist ~ called Jenny 🙂
Thanks for sharing this with us ~ I will definitely look into it and see what I can find
~Manwon^^
