K-pop girl band SeeYa, who have been together for five years, will soon disband, according to their agency Core Contents Media on Wednesday.

Core Contents announced in a press release that the girl group will no longer remain a group after unveiling their final album titled "Good bye my friend" on January 11 which will feature their greatest hits as well as two new songs recorded with former leader Nam Gyu-ri.

"The members of SeeYa have told me that they want to go their own ways," Kim Kwang soo, the CEO of Core Contents Media was quoted as saying, adding that they will fully support them on their future endeavors.

The trio first made their debut with original members Nam Gyu-ri, Kim Yeon-ji and Lee Boram in 2006 with their first album "The First Mind" and have produced several popular hit songs such as "A Woman's Scent," "Shoes," "The Day" and "Love's Greeting."

The group then returned to the music scene in the latter half of last year with new member Soo-mi after Nam left the group in April 2009 to pursue a solo career.
