JQT (제이큐티) was a four-member South Korean girl group that was formed under GP Entertainment. The 'J' in the group name comes from the common letter in each of the members names, while the 'QT' stands for 'Quality' and 'Quartet'. Three of the four members are from the disbanded group i-13, a girl group that was considered the female equivalent of Super Junior.
The group originally debuted in 2009 with Min Jung, Ga Jin, Ji Eun and Min Sun. In September of 2011, it was announced that Min Sun would be leaving the group to focus on a career in acting. She was replaced by Lee Jin Kyung, a company trainee. JQT was preparing to debut in the United States with help from Melvin Brown and Akon.
The group disbanded in 2012 after the members refused to renew their contracts with GP Entertainment.
