  • Jeon Jae-eun Puretty () was a South Korean girl group formed by DSP Media. The group debuted in Japan in 2012 through the anime series Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future, where fictionalized versions of the members appeared as the secondary cast, and their songs, "Cheki Love" and "Shuwa Shuwa Baby", were used as the series' ending theme songs. Despite plans for them to make their Korean debut, the group disbanded in January 2014, with DSP Media announcing the possibility of its members becoming part of other groups in the future.

History

In January 2012, DSP Media announced that they would be debuting a sister group to Kara and Rainbow. Temporarily nicknamed the DSP Girls, the group revealed plans to debut simultaneously in both Korea and Japan through the 2012 video game and anime Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future, with fictionalized versions of the members as the secondary cast. Puretty would sometimes feature alongside Prizmmy at the end of each episode of Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future in a segment called "Pretty Rhythm Studios." In the Korean dub of the series, the members of Puretty had their own live-action segment titled "Charming School at Prism Stone."

Puretty held their first official performance at the Tokyo Toy Show 2012 on 15 June, promoting their debut Japanese single "Cheki Love". In August 2012, they performed at A-Nation. In January 2013, the group released their second single, "Shuwa Shuwa Baby."
