In 30 seconds: TAHITI
The early singles are bright dance pop, and the later ones grow considerably more adult in both sound and styling.
Worth a look if you want to see how a small-agency girl group kept going long after the first line-up dissolved.

KPOP DISCOVER's TAHITI note
TAHITI is a girl group that debuted from Dream Star Entertainment in July 2012. The later years also ran under the name JLine Entertainment, and the line-up changed more than once. The final formation was Minjae, Miso, Jerry and Ari, and in 2018 the disbandment became known through a message from Jerry. The catalogue is short, yet from 2012 to 2016 they put out five or more releases and kept going through every change of membership.
Three songs are worth holding onto: Tonight, Love Sick and Phone Number. The 2012 debut Tonight is bright dance pop and shows the early tone most plainly. Love Sick, released in 2013, is the one later listeners gather around and the title that comes up whenever the group is discussed. Phone Number, out in January 2015, represents the later TAHITI, grown-up in sound and in presentation. Those three alone reveal how much changed in a short span.
The turn came in 2014, when Jerry joined. Oppa, You're Mine carried the bright line on, and from around Phone Number in 2015 the grown-up impression moved to the front. I Want To Know Your Mind, released in May 2016, was the last single and closed a catalogue that had been renewed without a break until the end. Tonight, then Love Sick, then Phone Number covers the early tone, the song later listeners gather around and the late-period signature.
Editors' take Tonight / Love Sick / Phone Number — changes of line-up and a deepening sound in three songs, from a Dream Star Entertainment four-piece.
Trivia worth knowing
Line-up
TAHITI went through several line-up changes while active, so the final membership is the clearest place to start.
Signature song
Tonight, Love Sick and Phone Number in order trace the move from a bright start to a more adult register.
Fandom
Black Pearl leans on the island image behind the group name, which makes the fandom name easy to hold.
Stage
Music show stages, rather than the clips alone, show the formations and expressions after the numbers shrank.
Comparison
Set beside Blady and SKarf, both the difficulty and the appeal of smaller-agency girl groups in the early 2010s come through.
Where they stand now
After the disbandment some members led listeners back through their own later work, so the chronology is worth keeping.

Japan activity score
KPOP DISCOVER original metric
No. 240/ 241 groups
No. 240 of 241 groups with recorded activity in Japan (top 100%)
- 0Japanese releases
- 0Japan-related tracks
- 0Members from Japan
- 1Official Japanese accounts
The denominator is the 241 groups, out of 564 covered by KPOP DISCOVER, whose raw score reaches at least one point. The score adds 10 points per Japanese-market release, 3 per Japan-related track, 12 per member from Japan, and 8 per official Japanese account. Japanese-market releases carry the most weight because they are the most direct evidence of activity; related tracks add track-level detail; members from Japan stand for Japanese-language communication and continuity; official accounts stand for a permanent point of contact. The weights are an editorial judgement, not a statistical optimisation, and the ranking tracks release volume in Japan closely.
