Interesting read. Prose is good and what helps is the article is well sourced. So kudos.

General

  • No problems with sourcing, nor the reliabity.
  • No issues with imaging.
  • No dead links
  • One dablink needs addressing
  • Is it acceptable to use a YouTube link as a External link, per WP:YT and WP:EL

Lead

  • "The group was dissolved permanently in 2007" 'was' is redundant, perfectly fine to remove it.
  • "they were the first artist" as far as I'm aware of, artist refers to one person, should be artists, per plural

Career

  • "Maia decided to form a duo, a singer and a musician" replace comma with colon
  • "This situations was exacerbated" → This situation was exacerbated

Later activities

  • "and by 2011 Korean-inspired boy and girl bands had become dominant" place comma between '2011' and 'Korean-inspired'

  • Dab dealt with. RatuVEVO is an official feed, so there are no copyright concerns; should be acceptable.
Was removed, artist changed to musical act (allow the inclusion of solo artists as well), changed to "consisting of", oops, and done.
