After a break of almost one year, Brown Eyed Girls returned with their second digital single I Am Summer. Vol.1 in June 2007, and their second album Leave Ms. Kim in September.
In January 2008, the group released their first mini-album With L.O.V.E. Brown Eyed Girls. The first song chosen to promote the mini-album was L.O.V.E. which became a big hit Korea.
Brown Eyed Girls's second mini-album My style was released in September 2008.
On July 20th, 2009, Brown Eyed Girls released their third full-length album Sound G. In this album was included the song Abracadabra which marked a change in the style of the girls from more conservative to a provocative one. In October, a "repackage version" of Sound G was released. This version was a mini-album featuring 5 songs not included in the original release (which was intended to be a triple CD album although it was released in a 2-CD format).
