BeForU (ビーフォーユー, Biifooyuu) is an all female Japanese Pop group that belongs to the Avex label. Final members were 小坂りゆ (Riyu Kosaka), 立花彩野 (Ayano Tachibana), 西内裕美 (Hiromi Nishiuchi) and 福下恵美 (Megumi Fukushita). Its original 4 members were chosen from a Bemani Audition set by 前田尚紀 (Naoki Maeda), and debuted as BeForU in 2001 with their first song DIVE, which was notable as being the first J-Pop song in the Dance Dance Revolution series. Originally formed by 小坂りゆ (Riyu Kosaka), Noria, 代真 (Yoma) and 前原しゆな (Shiyuna Maehara), after the departure of the last in 2004, auditions were made again and 3 new members joined: 南さやか (Sayaka Minami), 外花りさ (Risa Sotohana) and 有沢みはる (Miharu Arisawa), known as the BeForU NEXT. In 2006, they were signed to the Avex label, and released their first major single Red Rocket Rising later that year. In 2007, due to personal problems and health problems, Yoma and Miharu Arisawa left the group, and on December 30th of the same year, Noria and Risa Sotohana had their "graduations" from BeForU, to start their upcoming solo careers. On January 2008 were introduced three new members, 立花彩野 (Ayano Tachibana), 西内裕美 (Hiromi Nishiuchi) and 福下恵美 (Megumi Fukushita). In April 2008, Sayaka Minami left the group, leaving Riyu, Ayano, Hitomi, and Megumi as the final members of BeForU. In October 2009, their official site got closed, and as their major contract ended, apart from the start of Riyu Kosaka's start as a "free" artist announcement, future plans for BeForU got unknown, leading into an undefinite hiatus for them.
