During the latter half of 2010, rumors began to circulate through Korean media sites that E-Tribe, the producers behind breakthrough hits such as SNSD's Gee and Lee Hyori's U-Go-Girl, were planning to launch a new girl group. The producers quickly denied the rumors and said they were untrue.

On April 13, 2011, Dal Shabet released their "Pink Rocket" music video.[6] Promotions for "Pink Rocket" began on April 14, 2011, on M!
