Brown Eyed Girls
Brown Eyed Girls (브라운 아이드 걸스) is a Korean pop girl group formed by Nega Network. They have arisen to significant success, beginning with their 2008 hit song "L.O.V.E." and their 2009 mega smash hit "Abracadabra". The choreography for "Abracadabra", dubbed the "Saucy Hip Move", proved immensely popular amongst the public. The song was subsequently parodied by "Dirty Eyed Girls", a parody group formed by select members of 2PM and 2AM.

Information
Brown Eyed Girls debuted in March 2006 with the album Your Story after 3 years of training. The album didn't sell as well as expected, but in August it was re-released including 5 new songs, one of them being "Hold The Line". This song samples Sugababes song "Push The Button" and Daft Punk's "Technologic". "Hold The Line", boost the group's popularity and even was included in the soundtrack for the video game Pump it Up.
After a break of almost one year, Brown Eyed Girls returned with their second digital single "Naega Yeoreumida Vol.1" in June 2007, and their second album Tteonara 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).
At the end of 2009, the group won the award of "Best Female Group" at the Mnet Asian Music Awards.
