In this series we remember songs that have been forgotten or were never even given the attention they deserved. Today's Hidden Gem is Phone Number by Tahiti
They just don't do Kpop like this anymore. The concept, the bright video, the memorable chorus choreo that anyone can do. Honestly it should have been a big hit like Miniskirt for AOA. Those vocals too! Jerry (the blonde) totally killed it with the runs.
Tahiti made a couple more comebacks after this song. Jisoo left the team and Miso DRAGGED her, I've never seen anything quite like it in all my years as a Kpop fan. They tried continuing as a quartet and switching labels but they just ultimately disbanded. Minjae did a collab with Ellin of Crayon Pop a couple years ago and is a BJ on Afreeca TV. Jerry debuted as a soloist in 2019 and she is preparing to debut in a new group called St Onair (sadly the label in sketchy). Jisoo got married and teaches pilates. Ari was in a fictional group called Red Queen for a kdrama called idolm@ster. She is also dating Ryeowook of Super Junior.
