Comment:

 Unfortunately, in the current UI, dragging a contact from one group to the
 other isn't the way to accomplish your goal. What you need to do to change
 the grouping in the contacts menu is "right click" (context menu) on a
 contact, then navigate to "Tags" and choose the appropriate ones.

 The reason they've "disappeared" is that you're merging contact. What you
 need to do is click on the contacts you can still see, then there's a
 little down arrow that appears, when you click it, it'll show you
 alternative accounts for that same contact. To unmerge, "right click"
 (context menu) on the account name and select "Detach from contact".

 Hopefully that's clear. Let me know if it works for you.
