T.T.Ma (Korean: 티티마) was a five-member South Korean girl group that debuted in 1999.[1] The group, which was referred to as the female version of NRG, disbanded in 2002.[2]

History

One of the group songs, "Loner" was featured in the South Korean dance simulation game Pump It Up.[3] On January 25, 2001, T.T.Ma and their labelmates NRG signed a contract with a Latvian concert performer to embark on a European tour in June, making them the first K-pop groups to perform in Eastern Europe.[4]

After some speculation of a third album, the group was disbanded in 2002, with only Soy (the group leader) continuing in the entertainment industry as a VJ.[5] On May 15, 2007, Ujin released a solo single and the band reunited for a Christmas single that year.[3]
