Pre-debut

Before their official debut, Nine Muses released a track for the Prosecutor Princess OST called "Give Me" with Seo In Young. The group was announced on March 26, 2010, after their youngest member gained a lot of interest from the public by appearing in the music video for label mates ZE:A.

Nine Muses made their official debut on August 12, 2010, with the release of their mini album Let's Have a Party.

Nine Muses originally had 14 potential members, but when the name of the group was announced, the company selected the nine members most ready to debut in the group.

Later into their debut, member Jaekyung left to focus on her modeling career and was replaced by Hyuna. In late 2010, the girls continued with follow-up promotions for the song "Ladies".[1]

In December 6, 2010, it was announced that the band was preparing to advance to Japan. On December 26, 2010, Nine Muses held a successful performance of six songs on Seoul Train, an event in which K-pop artists and groups perform for their Japanese fans, alongside V.O.S. and ZE:A.[2]

2011: Line-up changes and "Figaro"

It was confirmed on June 9, 2011, that the group would become a seven-member sub-unit. Star Empire Entertainment initially stated that Rana and Bini were still in the group, but weren't going to participate in this round of promotions.[3] However, On August 11, after months of hiatus, Star Empire announced Rana and Bini's official departure from Nine Muses. The decision was mutual as Rana and Bini wanted to pursue individual activities. However, they are still signed with the company.[4]

The song was produced by Sweetune, who was also behind their "Figaro" single. The song received a good response and had garnered a larger fan base for Nine Muses.

On February 20, Star Empire Entertainment announced that the group will make their comeback in March with a new track due to the good response.
