Nine Muses‘ Bini (Lee Hye Bin), Rana, (Lee Ra Na) and Lee Yu Ae Rin (Lee Hye Min) have declared that they will be leaving the group in order to branch out into other areas.
Bini alerted fans of the career change through her personal mini-homepage, as she wrote, “I am no longer red haired, or a singer anymore.” The post had netizens wondering if Bini was planning to leave the group.
Their agency, Star Empire, clarified on the matter through Newsen on February 11th. “Bini, Rana, and Lee Yu Ae Rin are not leaving the group. They’ve always had an interest in acting and modeling, so they will briefly be taking a break from the group in order to pursue those areas. Depending on what happens, they might return to Nine Muses.”
The three are also not participating in the group’s next album, as representatives continued to reveal, “They are not joining the group in their rehearsals, but they do visit the company and keep in contact. They will remain under Star Empire.”
Star Empire hinted at the possibility of additional members by stating, “Nine Muses is always open to new members, so a new member might be added for their next album.”
The group is currently collecting tracks for their next comeback.

‘Model idols’ Nine Muses will be making a comeback in January of 2013.
The girls have finished recording most of the songs on their upcoming album, which is currently undergoing post-production. Nine Muses’ title track has been revealed to be produced by Sweetune, who’s worked with the group since their song “Figaro“.
The upcoming album will mark almost a year since Nine Muses promoted their song “Ticket” last March. The members are reported to have performed at events and finished individual schedules in the meantime.
What’s particularly interesting is the rumor of a member change. After a photo of an event promotion was spread online, fans noticed that some members were not present. Nine Muses is also rumored to be planning to promote as a full 9-member team once again.
Hello, 9 Muses of Stare Empire fans!

Girl group Nine Muses is about to make their fourth comeback this year, as they have just revealed a teaser for “Glue.”
Their upcoming digital single titled “Glue” will be released on December 4, but to give the fans a taste of their concept, a teaser picture was shared on the group’s official Facebook page on November 27. It is certainly one hot teaser with a bold red background and sharp white letters, but the attention is immediately drawn to the small cropped photo of lips, which seem to be leaning in for a kiss. The number 25 placed strategically right between the lips represents the recommended audience for the girls’ comeback that, according to the representatives, is 25 and over!
For the time being, we only wonder how much sexier the girls can even get anymore. The group’s agency Star Empire Entertainment revealed, “‘Glue’ will once again highlight Nine Muses’ trademark beautiful, sexy, and confident image.”
Stay tuned for the single release on December 4 at noon (KST)!
Nine Muses Eunji and Leesem graduate from groupNine muses starting to be a problematic name for this group... Eunji tho, bummer. I liked her skinny ass and dimples. :(
Eunji and Leesem will be officially graduating from Nine Muses. A graduation picture of all the members of the group shows that the remaining members respect the two’s decision to walk a solo path.
Though they will be leaving the group, the two will still remain in contract with Star Empire.
The agency revealed that Eunji and Leesem will take a break, then return to the entertainment scene through various MC and variety promotions.
Nine Muses will focus on individual activities for the time being and will promote as a 7-member group.
It appears that Nine Muses star Sera has become the latest member of the group to announce her departure. A plethora of Korean news sources carried news stories on June 24 with a quote from a spokesperson from Star Empire Entertainment, Nine Muses’ talent agency, that appear to confirm that the singer will no longer be working with the popular girl group.
The spokesperson was quoted as saying, “Sera’s contract with the company has expired, and she will now be graduating from Nine Muses to focus on solo activities. We wish her all the best.”
The same representative did offer some cheer for Nine Muses supporters, however, announcing that fans could expect a comeback from the group in August, featuring a “new member.”
The group was rocked by the departure earlier this year of two other members of the group, Lee Sem and Eunji, who both left in January. After a very busy 2013, the group has been on something of a hiatus since the release of their last hit as a nine-piece, “Glue.”
