Debuting in early 2007, they became popular in the fall of that year with the song "Tell Me." They have scored five consecutive #1 hit singles: "Tell Me", "So Hot", "Nobody", "2 Different Tears" and "Be My Baby". In 2008, they won two "Artist of the Year" awards.
The group began their entry into the American market in 2009, with lead single "Nobody"; the single became the first song by a Korean group to enter the Billboard Hot 100. They are co-managed in the United States by JYP Entertainment and Jonas Group. They managed to place 4th with "Nobody" on the Canadian single charts for the past 2 weeks of March 2011.
Former member Hyuna (현아) left in June '07 due to health problems. She later joined girl group 4minute which disbanded in 2016. At the end of 2009, Sunmi (선미) left to continue her education. She was replaced with trainee Hyelim. She later on returned to singing with the release of her hit-single "24시간이 모자라" in 2013. With the announcement of Wonder Girls' comeback in 2015, Sunmi rejoined the group. Later in 2015, Sunye (선예) and Sohee (소희) officially withdrew from the group.
On 26 January 2017, Wonder Girls officially disbanded after members Sunmi and Yeeun decided not to renew their contracts. A farewell single entitled, "그려줘", was released on the groups 10th anniversary (10 February).

자꾸 첨이란 말을 너무 많이해
이런 감정은 첨이라며 말을 하는게 이상해
난 다른 여자들과 다르다는게 좀 수상해
내가 아는 애만 해도 몇 명인데
그 여자들은 아무 의미도 없다는게 이상해
그동안 사귀었던 여잔 뭐였는데
남잔 다 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
너만 (너만) 다르다고 말하는 건 뭐야
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony 말도 안 돼
말도 안 되는 말 정말
여잔 다 가지고 놀기만 했었다면서
나만 (나만) 다르게 생각한단 건 뭐야
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony 말도 안 돼
Irony 말도 안 돼
말도 안 되는 말 정말
다른 남자 애들 안 좋은 얘기를
자꾸 내게 자세히 말해 주는게 너무 이상해
니 친구들 안 좋은 얘길 왜 내게 계속 말해
너만 안 그렇단 말이 좀 이상해
니 친구들 모두 너와 함께 다니잖아 말이 돼
친구들 모두 다 그러고 있는데 너만 안그러고 있는게
남잔 다 (남잔) 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
너만 (너만) 다르다고 말하는 건 뭐야
Irony uh 말도 안 돼
Irony 말도 안 돼

말도 안 되는 말 정말
Uh, break it down, uh four, three, two, one
너무 진실한 것처럼 말이지
너무 그러니까 이상한거지
말을 곧이 곧대로 듣지 못하고
자꾸 의심하게 돼 믿지 못하고
잠시 생각해보면 니가 뭣하러
그렇게까지 나에게 환심을 사려
할까 싶어서 믿어보려고도 해봤어
하지만 수상해 아무래도 안되겠어
남잔 다 (남잔 다) 믿어서는 안된다고 하면서
너만 (너 하나만) 다르다고 말하는 건 뭐야 (그게뭐니)

The song Irony by Wonder Girls talks about the confusion and doubt of the singer towards her relationship with her boyfriend. She is puzzled that people keep telling her that she is being treated differently yet she cannot pinpoint what is different about her boyfriend’s behavior towards her. She is also suspicious when her boyfriend’s friends keep revealing unsettling details about him that she hadn’t known before. The singer is conflicted between trusting her boyfriend and not being able to believe what she hears about him.
The lyrics of the song depict the irony of the situation she is in, where she is finding it hard to trust her boyfriend despite his insistence that he is different from other men. The song reflects the conflicting emotions felt by someone who is unsure of the authenticity of her relationship, as her partner professes love and promises but there are inconsistencies in his words and deeds. The lyric 'Irony 말도 안 돼, 말도 안 되는 말 정말' (Irony doesn't make sense, words that don't make sense) echoes the singer's frustration and disappointment of not believing what she hears.
Overall, the song describes the irony and complexity of romantic relationships, where one can easily fall into a web of doubt and uncertainty.
