Gugudan was one of the adored girl groups that always released the best bops during their time as an active K-Pop girl group. Having debuted as a 9-member girl group in June of 2016, the group was active for 4 years before disbanding in Dec. 2020. It's been almost three years since their disbandment and the members have each continued their careers in their own ways.
Their group name 'Gugudan' was always representative of the multiplication table in Korean, emphasizing that they have different charms that could be multiplied - and they've continued to do so in their personal capacities.
Let's find out what all the members are getting up to almost 3 years after their disbandment.
Note: Many members of the group go by different names than the names they used during their Gugudan activities. Their current official names have been used in the headings with their former stage names added in brackets.
