The group debuted in 2010 with "No Playboy". Shortly after their debut, Jaekyung, Bini, Rana and Euaerin were announced to be leaving, although Euaerin decided to return to the group. They also promoted their debut single album side track, "Ladies".
The group had a much better received comeback in 2011 with Figaro, although it was revealed that their company had nearly decided to rename them "Sweet Candy", due to fears that people would become confused as to why a group called "Nine Muses" only had seven members. In 2012, Kyungri was added to the group lineup in time for their 2012 release: "News". In 2013, Sungah was added to the group line up, so Nine Muses could finally live up to their name and promote with 9 members.
2013 was a busy year for Nine Muses; four comebacks and their first full album being released. They promoted (in order) Dolls, Wild, Gun and Glue; Gun being the title track of their full album "Prima Donna".
In 2014, members Lee Sem, Eunji and Sera all announced their departure from the group, and the company announced there would be a comeback in August of that year with a new member. In 2015, two new members, Keumjo and Sojin, joined the group.
In 2016, members Euaerin and Minha left the group following the expiration of their contracts. Later in the year, Hyuna also left the group due to contract expiration. They came back as a subunit named 9MUSES A (나인뮤지스A) which consisted of Kyungri, Hyemi, Sojin and Keumjo with a single album MUSES DIARY. In 2017 it was announced that the group will be coming back with the same line-up as Nine Muses rather that Nine Muses A with Sungah being on hiatus to study music. They released mini-album MUSES DIARY PART.2: IDENTITY in June.
Nine Muses announced their disbandment on February 10th, 2019.

나인뮤지스 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
옷깃만 만지작
그러다 날아가지
그렇게 밍기적 밍기적
멋쩍게 밍기적
그러다 날아가지
쭈삣쭈삣 티 난다
그러다가 놓칠라
바로 바로 와
애가 왜 그래 oh
숫기가 없어 oh
옛다 틈이다 oh
어쩌면 이런 기회는 없어
솔직해져야지 이봐
예의는 지켜야지 이봐
곱게 말해야지 이봐
남자면 남자답게 와서
마무리는 잘해야지
그렇게 만지작 만지작
옷깃만 만지작
그러다 날아가지
그렇게 밍기적 밍기적
멋쩍게 밍기적
그러다 날아가지
여기저기 재지마
곁눈질은 안 좋아
너보다 더 잘난 남자는 많고 많단다
애가 왜 그래 oh
숫기가 없어 oh
옛다 틈이다 oh
또 다시 이런 기회는 안 줘
못 본 척 하잖아 이봐
순한 척 하잖아 이봐
예쁜 척 하잖아 이봐
너 때문에 힘들게 웃잖아
마무리는 잘해야지
운명처럼 와줄래
맘에 불을 켜줄래
진지하게 고백해주면 OK
멈칫 멈칫대다가 네 큰 코 다칠라
Touching Touching
내 맘을 흔들어줘봐
애타는 너의 마음과
태도를 내게 보여봐
불쌍도 하지 바보같지굴지마
솔직해져야지 이봐
예의는 지켜야지 이봐
곱게 말해야지 이봐
남자면 남자답게 와서
마무리는 잘해야지
그렇게 만지작 만지작
옷깃만 만지작
그러다 날아가지
그렇게 밍기적 밍기적
멋쩍게 밍기적
그러다 날아가지
The song "건" by 나인뮤지스 talks about a young woman who is being pursued by a man who seems to be fickle and unreliable. The lyrics describe the man as being touchy-feely, constantly playing with the woman's clothes and making annoying noises. The girl is clearly annoyed by his behaviour and is looking for a way to get away from him. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "그러다 날아가지" which means "flying away like that", perhaps indicating the woman's desire to get away from this man.
The song also touches on the importance of honesty and sincerity in relationships. The lyrics advise the man to be more straightforward in his approach and to express his feelings in a more respectful manner. The woman also acknowledges the fact that there are plenty of other men who are more deserving of her attention, indicating that she knows her worth and will not settle for anything less than what she deserves.
Overall, the lyrics of "건" speak to the experiences of many young women who have had to deal with unwanted attention and the importance of setting boundaries and demanding respect in relationships.

This song still EATS. 9M’s discography will always be one of the strongest in kpop. This vibe, the instrumentals, the soulful vocals and Euaerin’s iconic rap? Forever Mine 💜
