Rey shortly afterward left the group.[15] Due to its popularity, in 2012 the single was picked as the opening theme of Indonesian teen soap opera Yang Masih di Bawah Umur [id] (English: The Underage) which aired on RCTI, where the group also made cameos in some episodes of it.[17][18]

On January 25, 2012, the group unexpectedly received the Outstanding Girlband Award at the 2012 Dahsyatnya Awards, beating the likes of already well-known girl groups such as 7icons and Cherrybelle.[19][20] However on April, the group saw a change of its original line-up, when Yui left the group due to an unspecified health reason, she was then subsequently replaced by Uty.[21] In the middle of 2012, Super Girlies released their third single, Missing You, a remake version of the original soundtrack of Indonesian teen soap opera Cinta Cenat-Cenut 2.[22] Later that year, the group released their fourth single, Hip Hip Hura.[23] The single was originally released by famous Indonesian singer Chrisye in 1985, while the cover version by the group is remade with new J-pop arrangement and feel.[24]
