Nine Muses (Korean: 나인뮤지스), sometimes stylized as 9MUSES, is a nine member South Korean girl group under the Star Empire Entertainment music label. They are also referred to as Namyu (나뮤) by fans, an abbreviated form of Na-in Myujiseu (나인뮤지스). The group made their official debut in August 12th, 2010 with the single "No Playboy" as well as the release of their first single album, Let's Have a Party. The group originally had nine members until Jaekyung dropped out of the group to pursue her modelling career. Hyuna was then added to the group near the end of 2010. On 11 August 2011, Star Empire Entertainment announced that Rana and Bini had left the group in order to pursue individual activities. In January 2012, Kyungri was officially added before their News promotion. In January 2013, after having performed with the rest of the members for the whole of 2012 after their Ticket promotion is over, Son Sungah was finally officially announced as the ninth member making them a nine-member group again.

History

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. They have also taken part in the documentary, 9 Muses of Star Empire, showing each and every one of their hardships as trainees and into becoming Nine Muses.

2010: Debut and Let's Have a Party

Nine Muses made their official debut on August 12, 2010, with the release of their single album Let's Have a Party. The lead track of the album being "No Playboy", a song produced by composer Rainstone and Park Jin Young. 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] It was later confirmed that Rana dropped out but wishes to stay in the industry, while Bini was replaced, presumably by Kyungri.

The group released their first digital single "Figaro" and its accompanying music video on August 18;[5] after revealing two teasers and concept photos earlier in the month. They made their comeback performance on M! Countdown the same day as the single's release.

2012: New members and Sweet Rendezvous

Nine Muses introduced their new eighth member, Kyungri, at the groups's performance in Abu Dhabi, UAE.[6][7] They revealed concept photos for their second single "News", featuring all 8 members, on January 1, 2012.[8] Nine Muses released the music video for "News" on January 10,[9] with the single release a day later on January 11, 2012. 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. On March 6, a teaser video for "Ticket" from their Sweet Rendezvous mini album was released.[10] The music video for "Ticket" was released on March 8.[11] On April 6, Sera hinted that the group is working on their next comeback song through an Arirang interview and that Nine Muses added their ninth and final member, Son Sungah.[12] On May 25 they released two music videos for their new military campaign song "My Youth’s Allegiance".[13] It was rumored that Nine Muses would make a comeback on December. On October 10, Nine Muses announced their official fan club name which is 'MINE' after the members went to through together a list of suggestions by fans. MINE is a combination of 'My' and 'Nine' which means 'My Nine Muses'.[14] Nine Muses announced at the Walk with the Stars event on 17.11.12 that they will have a comeback in January 2013.

2013: Dolls and Wild

It was officially announced that Nine Muses would comeback on January 24 as a 9 member group, confirming Sungah to be the 9th member. Their title song is being produced by Sweetune, marking the 4th collaboration between Nine Muses and Sweetune.[15] On January 10, Star Empire announced that their title track will be titled "DOLLS," and will be released as a single album.[16] On 22 January 2013, they performed a special comeback stage with "Dolls" at a military base and received explosive response from the soldiers.[17] Then they debuted at number 35 with the single "Dolls" on GAON TOP100 Chart & 11th on M!Countdown, they peaked 7th and have been in the Top 10 for some weeks. 'Dolls' peaked at the 17th place on the Gaon Chart and has become the group's highest charting single.

Lee Sem featured in Kim Jin Pyo's (너는 나를) music video for his song "You And Me" (너는 나를).[18] The group is set to have a comeback on May 9th with a mini-album.[19] The group’s official Twitter revealed the teaser photo with the words, “2013.05.09 Nine Muses[9MUSES] is coming back with mini album 'WILD'!! Please give us a lot of love and attention.”

On May 9, 2013 the music video for "Wild" was released, both by Loen Entertainment [20] and Nine Muses Youtube channel [21].
