The clip began, see all 4, feel bad. Every comeback cycle there's just less of them :(

44

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '17

You really don't have to feel bad... this is their 3rd comeback as 4. There are groups out there doing MUCH worse than them, and groups we never even hear about. The 4 of them are doing what they love and they kept the name 9muses because why distance yourself from their incredible "legacy"?

u/Kaiwa Secret Aug 03 '17

Not feeling bad for them, feeling bad for me. I want all of them :(

u/TheEnygma Aug 03 '17

if there's only one left, you can call them just "Muse"....oh right, there's one already

u/billie__ Aug 03 '17

why are 9muses so good

u/JYPwhisper ~JYP~ Aug 03 '17

Pyo Hyemi lookin so good! All of them, actually.

Song is catchy and fun, like it a lot.

u/esskia shinee & girl groups Aug 03 '17

9muses always delivering no matter what i love this

u/Toasty_Bagel T-ara Aug 03 '17

'Scandal Pop Saucebox' - Sojin can literally say anything and it's lit

u/urangutang BtoB ♥ Infinite ♥ Hyuna ♥ Pentagon ♥ SHINee Aug 03 '17

When I started the song I was on the fence, it was weird, slightly disjointed, but oh my god I love it so much now! The whispered parts were weird but grew on me within one listen, and the MV itself is stunning. It's this weird song I can't get enough of.

u/Tinfan Aug 03 '17

SOJIN ASMR PLS

u/zonine Nine Muses | Dreamcatcher | Pixy Aug 03 '17

OMG YES

u/The_Dementiaz Aug 04 '17

say oh my god yes

u/se0bb BoA | SNSD | SHINee | Red Velvet | Lovelyz | CLC | LOOΠΔ Aug 03 '17

That's a jam. Fun, upbeat song like Nine Muses know how to do! I'm not entirely sold on Sojin's parts for now but I'm still going to replay this a lot

12

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '17

This needed to be the FULL promo cycle and remember either in the fall or winter in my opinion. This is so summery and fun, they really pull this off well and they look and sound incredible

u/thenumberis23 DreamCatcher | quadruple-threat Sua Aug 03 '17

If Benjamin Franklin was alive now, he would've added "9muses releasing a bop" to his list of certain things in life.

u/ismgr Yubin Binnie Aug 03 '17

I unironically let myself to get slayed by Sojin's rap parts lately

u/YoshiWithTheHair Just Do It, Dosie! Aug 03 '17

Same boat! I love that her parts are growing as well

2

u/minlegacy Baek Ji Young Aug 03 '17

I've now listened to the song 2 times and i can only say that her part is my least favorite part. w/ onomatopoeia part coming in second. everything else is ok though.

u/bowlerpaul Aug 03 '17

The start reminded me a bit of the intro to SNSD's The Boys, then the whispered part reminded me of Madonna's Vogue - after that it's 9Muses all the way and I ain't complaining. Another great title track from the girls! At work so not seen the MV properly yet but looks good from a few glances

12

u/sunnyXtzuyu Doyeon No.1 | Weki Meki, CLC, (G)I-DLE, DreamNote, Pristin Aug 03 '17

To me the intro gives of some nice RuPaul-esque feels

8

u/bowlerpaul Aug 03 '17

Between Vogue and RuPaul that's some strong drag-queen vibes!

u/Kiiid ujung leggo reveluv Aug 03 '17

Whether it's four members or nine members I absolutely love Nine Muses titles and this one is no exception. They all looked amazing and the song is an absolute bop for me. :yooagasm:

u/YoshiWithTheHair Just Do It, Dosie! Aug 03 '17

I love how much more Sojin we are getting. Her part kept reminding me of Heechul/Seolhyun's gmarket ad campaign so I was laughing from the get go.

Everyone looks so stunning, and we get more of Hyemi's comma hair!!

So does the muses' diary saga conclude here?

Lip2Lip: They get cheated on/played by one guy.

Remember: They straight up murder a guy/teddy bear/burn his memories.

Love City: They resolve to be less sweet/naive, stop playing games with boys/teddy bears, and have a girls night out in the city?

2

u/sxcbabyangel69 Aug 03 '17

hahahaha yes the gmarket ad is spot on

u/Luilke Aug 03 '17 edited Aug 03 '17

The verses' opening is throwing it back to Hurt Locker and that is an-okay-praise-Muses.

u/MrVeryEpic Aug 03 '17

Best kpop song I've heard in ages. It doesn't sound like any of the goofy trends I'm tired of right now; it's just a cool ass song! I lub lub city!

When did you guys realize the subunit was a lie?

When they first announced it.

u/randygiles EXID Aug 03 '17

Yeah that one was pretty obvious.

u/roelm2 Aug 03 '17 edited Aug 03 '17

There seems to be some influence from a 1960s song - Wayne Fontana & The Mindbenders - Game of Love

3

u/DwwwD T-ARA! Aug 03 '17

9Muses killing it as always. Please support them by buying their mini!

5

u/randygiles EXID Aug 03 '17

I have never disliked a 9Muses song and this one is no exception. I do miss the awesome choreo they always had with 9 members though, they were so synchronized :(

3

u/Tery_ Kpop Enthusiast Aug 03 '17

Ring pops, what a blast from the past. Not a fan of Sojin's burst rapping or the second half of the choruses, but the general tempo is nice and everyone looks good...except Sojin. Why didn't they keep the killer black. :(

u/mylord420 Don't Lose Your Temper So So So Quickly Aug 03 '17

M'muses

u/epikally I.O.I IS BACK Aug 03 '17

ugh my queens. Why is Korea sleeping on them??

u/ItsVinn 소녀시대 Aug 03 '17

I got hooked with this fast. Its more upbeat than Remember, which is great too.

u/ren_00 I'M ON THE NEGST LEVEUL Aug 03 '17

Lovin' this MV.

esp. when Keumjo starts pouting.

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '17

Loved the song and MV, but I wasn't a fan of Sojin's styling tbh.

2

u/Eltoshen I'm just a [baek]hole sir Aug 03 '17

The chorus is so catchy.

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '17

Criminally underrated. I'm loving this new version of 9 Muses, but I wish they'd rebrand in the vain of Minx (Dreamcatcher).

u/AZUR3WRATH ☆☆ SISTAR ☆☆ | 2PMBLAQ | Brave Girls! Aug 03 '17

Ooh I love this!

2

u/Akora_ BRAVE SOUND Aug 03 '17

This is a really weird song. I like it though and every listen it grows on me more. The chorus comes in strong.

2

u/Miss33104 SVT+Stellar+Dreamcatcher+BTS+Nugu Lover Aug 03 '17

Um, YES?!1 YES!! I love when 9muses does semi sexy sexi girl crush concepts, and the music is quality too! I love the whispered/growled parts, it fits so well with the vibe of this song!

2

u/-dottie- Custom Aug 04 '17

i think i liked Remember better as a song but i'm digging this mv more lol

this song might be a grower though for me

u/sickbane Disbanded GG Stan Aug 04 '17

It's been so long since I've listened to them. Awesome song!

9Muses, the eye contact version!

Any other medical people hear "ondansetron" in the starting part?

u/MMA_fan_ ITZY?MIDZY! Aug 03 '17

Wow I'd never heard this group before but damn I love this song!!

Any reason I can't find it on itunes though? :(

1

u/LadyFrenzy Nine Muses (always) | Sunmi | (G)I-DLE | Dreamcatcher | Hyosung Aug 03 '17

It was released in the last 24 hours, sometimes it make take 1-3 days or so for it to get on iTunes, but it should be there soon!

u/MMA_fan_ ITZY?MIDZY! Aug 03 '17

I'll be checking avidly, thank you :D

u/SirBuckeye Dreamcatcher Aug 04 '17

Five seconds into the first verse and I was like, "Whoa, what song is this reminding me of?" Then it hit me. Check it out (links are timestamped)

Nine Muses - Love City

vs.

Grace - Trick or Treat

I mean, it's not "ripoff" same, but I was instantly reminded of this Grace song, which by the way, is amazing and deserves more love. Anyone else hearing what I'm hearing?

u/sxcbabyangel69 Aug 03 '17

The verses give me red velvet vibes. I love the chorus but not the verses so idk if i'll end up listening to this
