# Thoughts on comeback + Song introduction.
"Nine Muses has come back since 9 months with Dolls!
Compared to our other songs we included lots of brass so it's a song full of life.
The emotions of organizing her heart after breaking up with meaningful lyrics 'Dolls', defines why people have to act that way after love breaking up, and expressing the process of how the people can heal themselves afterwards. It's a catchy song so please give us your support." (Sera)

# The most dolls like member of Nine Muses.
"EuAerin thinks to herself 'I'm a doll' and tries her best not to blink. Do you want to see?" (LeeSem)

"I think all Nine Muses members look doll like, look girly, and look mannish all together, so everyone looks like dolls." (EuAerin)

# Episodes during Album preparation.
"I feel very attached to this song. Honestly during the middle this song went over to another artist. After some complications the song came back to Nine Muses, through our comeback and after each stage my feeling of attachment grows." (Hyunah).
"I'll do my best, please cheer us on." (LeeSem)

# Frequent member changes.
"Nine Muses started as 9 members so I wished we ultimately went back to 9 members again.
For the members that left all they could do is cheer for us on the side. To fill the empty spots instead of being stressed out we became a more tightly knit group.
Looking back now (The frequent member changes) is the driving force that helped us rely on each other more." (Sera)

"It felt like we were a walking audition group. The new members were skilled so it kept the regular members on their toes. So it was nice." (EuAerin)
"To each her own. We try to look on the bright side" (LeeSem)

# Anxiety from their 'performance'. (charts)
"It's been 4 years since our debut, at first we did want to chart well. But instead of caring about performing well on the charts, I feel that showing us improve little by little is better now. I want to show us climbing higher and higher." (Eunji)

"The current music market's rate of rising/falling popular songs is faster now. Nine Muses with our musical color, prefer to have songs that give a longer lasting impression that you can listen to over and over without getting tired of it. So we're not too concerned about chart performance." (EuAerin)

# 'Army' Showcase.
"Honestly I was worried when our company first mentioned the idea of an 'army' showcase. I thought it would proper to have the showcase for the fans that waited for 9 months for our comeback. Would it be too much attention to one part of our fans, would other fans be disappointed I thought those at first. But since it was an innovative first try having a showcase at the army I thought it would be special too. Also many troop camps try and find us and welcome us. So it became a meaningful showcase in the end." (Hyunah)

"After our debut we have a close connection with the troops. They always look for us and we feel our energy recharged after each time. So we wanted to show our gratitude. It felt like we did that part pretty well so I was happy.
I believe instead of just performing normally, 'communication' is important. When we see them enjoying the stage and cheering we receive that energy and can show a better stage. Please cheer for us in the future too." (LeeSem)

# The comparison to 'Girl's Generation'.
"With just the fact we have 9 members, we get lots of questions that compares us to SNSD sunbaenims. (seniors) We answer the best we can but the statement becomes distorted and it becomes article material. Some example titles are 'SNSD, Our level is different', 'Step aside SNSD' like so. Whenever that happens it really becomes a hopeless situation. All these aggressive headlines makes me sad." (Hyunah)

"Even if we didn't say anything close to that, it still goes through. They're obvious false reports." (Hyemi)

"If you read the interview contents people know 'Ah they're not like that' but if the article is long people they selectively read parts they're interested in and remember that and the sensational title. That's why misunderstandings happen. On that point that makes me very sad." (Eunji)

"We answer all the questions with honesty but when it becomes spotlighted like that it's very sad" (Hyunah)

"For Nine Muses compared to other groups have less skin exposure. We wear long jackets and long boots often. We're limited in the exposure but after the stage it becomes a controversial topic. I want to show our performance and singing skills but only our outfits become the center of attention." (Hyemi)
