SISTAR promoting "Push Push" (2010)

SISTAR made their first appearance through a Céci magazine photo shoot on March 19, 2010 for the clothing company FUBU. A representative for FUBU stated "We thought that SISTAR would fit very well in the FUBU brand’s hip hop concept. They fit very well with our visuals of street fashion." Starship Entertainment described SISTAR as a girl group who "...has skill and style with their eccentric music, choreography, and fashion", and said they will "...create a new culture code as they will be a style icon to the age range of 10-20". The MV teaser for "Push Push", the title track to their debut single, was released on June 1, 2010. Their debut single was released on June 3, 2010 while their debut performance was at Music Bank on June 4, 2010.

(We Never Go Alone)" for the South Korean team competing at the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The group was sequentially chosen to be the yearly ambassador for SICAF at the 14th annual festival in late June. On July 6th, 2010 SISTAR's agency announced the group won the "Rookie of the Month" award from "Cyworld Digital Music".
