PIXY (Korean: 픽시; Japanese: ピクシー) was a girl group under ALLART Entertainment. Originally as six, they debuted on February 24, 2021 with the digital single "With My Wings".
They presumably disbanded sometime in the fourth quarter of 2024 due to inactivity, following the departures of multiple members and their agency's disestablishment.
History[]
2020: Pre-debut[]
In June 2020, the group's Twitter account was launched. A month later, their other accounts (TikTok and YouTube) were created.
2021: Debut with With My Wings, fandom name, first and second comeback[]
On February 24, PIXY released their first digital single, "With My Wings" with the title track, "Wings".
On April 26, on their official fan cafe, the group's fandom name was revealed to be "WINXY",[1] a combination of “Wings” and their group name “Pixy”. With this announcement, they also announced their first comeback would be on May 19, with the mini album Fairy Forest : Bravery.[2]
On September 10, the group announced their second mini album Fairy Forest : Temptation, released on October 7.[3]
On December 9, the group announced their second digital single "Call Me", released on December 14.[4]
2022: Ella's hiatus, Reborn, first U.S. tour, Ella and Satbyeol's departures, first Europe tour, and addition of Rinji[]
On March 11, ALLART Entertainment released a statement announcing that Ella would be taking a hiatus due to health issues, particularly personal stress and physical disability.[5] The group would continue to temporarily promote as five members for the time being until she returns.
On May 28, PIXY announced their third mini album Reborn, to be released on June 15.[6] Ella would not be participating in the album's recording and promotions due to focusing on her recovery.[7][8]
On July 27, 2022, the group revealed they would be going on their first United States tour PIXY Didn't See Us Coming Tour. The group would start off the tour with the first date in Los Angeles on August 11, 2022. However, the tour was later canceled.[9][10]
On August 27, ALLART Entertainment announced that group members Ella and Satbyeol had officially left the group.[11]
On August 29, the group revealed they would be going on their first European tour PIXY Wanna Be Your Villain 1st European Tour. The group will start off the tour with the first date in Amsterdam on October 13, 2022.[12]
On September 27, ALLART Entertainment announced that trainee Rinji would be added to the group starting at the European tour.[13]
On December 15, 2022, the group announced that they would be releasing an unreleased song titled "Trick or Treat" on the 18th at 18:00 KST.[14] On December 18, a concept clip for the song was released on YouTube.[15] Sometime afterward, Happy Tribe Entertainment ceased co-managing the group; therefore, ALLART Entertainment gained sole custody and full management of PIXY's future activities.
2023: Chosen Karma, second European tour, The Voice, Sua's absence from the EU tour[]
On February 19, the group posted a trailer hinting at an upcoming comeback.[16] On February 20, the group released the scheduler for their fourth mini album Chosen Karma, to be released on March 10.[17]
On September 8, the group announced that they would be going on their second European tour Pixy Last Night In The Dark City EU Tour. The group would start off the tour with the first date in Madrid on November 19, 2023. Their last show would be in Warsaw on December 9, 2023. However, on November 15, it was announced that the shows in Madrid, Prague and Budapest were cancelled. The tour would now only start in London on November 26.
On October 20, the group announced that they are releasing a digital EP on October 24.[18] The title was later revealed to be The Voice.[19]
On November 26, ALLART Entertainment announced that Sua wouldn't participate in the London show due to sudden issues related to her health and that she is expected to rejoin the group on the tour very soon.
On November 28, ALLART Entertainment announced that Sua wouldn't participate in the Strasbourg show, as well.
On November 30, ALLART Entertainment officially announced that Sua wouldn't participate in the Last Night In The Dark City EU Tour due to a bicycle accident.
2024-2025: Closure of ALLART Entertainment, Dajeong, Lola and Rinji's departures[]
On June 10, 2024, it was discovered that the ALLART Entertainment building was closed and abandoned. This left the status of PIXY uncertain, as no official statements were made.[20]
On June 20, Dajeong announced via her Instagram that she had left PIXY.[21]
On September 15, member Lola shared a handwritten letter on her Instagram account which confirmed that her contract with ALLART Entertainment had ended on September 11 and that she would be leaving PIXY.[22]
On February 20, 2025, Rinji was referred to as a former member of PIXY during her graduation from Hanlim Multi-Art School, confirming that she has withdrawn from the group.[23] It is safe to assume that the group had quietly disbanded sometime in 2024.
