Nature (stylized in uppercase) was a South Korean girl group established in 2018 by .[1] The ensemble comprised nine members: Sohee, Saebom, Aurora, Lu, Chaebin, Haru, Loha, Uchae, and Sunshine. Their official debut occurred on August 3, 2018 with the single album Girls and Flowers.[2]

Prior to their debut, original member Yeolmae departed. Loha became part of the group in November 2018, followed by Kim So-hee joining in October 2019. After six years of activity, Nature officially disbanded on April 27, 2024.[3]

2018: Debut and releases

In June 2018, , under the leadership of former SM Entertainment executive Jung Chang-hwan, revealed plans to launch the girl group Nature in August.[4]

Nature made their debut on August 3 with the single album Girls and Flowers, featuring the title track "Allegro Cantabile," a remake of the well-known anime Nodame Cantabile opening theme.[5] The original music video included former member Yeolmae but was subsequently modified to display only the current lineup.

To promote "Allegro Cantabile," the group engaged in busking events and performed on prominent music programs such as Music Bank, Inkigayo, and Mnet.[6] On August 30, Nature received the New Artist of the Year award at the Soribada Best K-Music Awards. By September 3, their "Allegro Cantabile" music video had exceeded two million views on YouTube.[7]

Towards the end of August, Nature initiated the Pop Cover Project, which featured five vocal and dance renditions of popular tracks including "Walk Like An Egyptian" by The Bangles and "Kiss" by Prince.[8]

On November 4, new member Loha was revealed through V Live. Subsequently, the group released their second single album Some & Love, led by the track "Some (You'll Be Mine)" on November 22.[9] A performance version followed shortly after on December 3.[10]

2019–2020: I'm So Pretty, Member Adjustments, Nature World: Code A, Japanese Market Entry, and Nature World: Code M

On January 15, Nature unveiled the music video for "Dream About You," the B-side track from their second single, Some & Love. The visuals showcased the group dressed in blue tutus and marked their inaugural use of a prop in choreography—a magical star wand. A performance-focused video was subsequently released on January 25.

On June 24, the group announced their return scheduled for July 10 with their debut mini-album titled I'm So Pretty. During this period, member Gaga took a temporary break to concentrate on her education. The music video for the album’s title song premiered on July 10, followed by a performance version on July 24.

On October 8, Kim So-hee, known from Produce 101, joined Nature after signing with n.CH Entertainment; concurrently, Gaga officially left the group to pursue her studies. The agency confirmed plans for a comeback in November. On November 12, Nature released their second mini-album, Nature World: Code A. Aurora was absent from this comeback due to her participation in the third season of China's Idol Producer. The music video for the lead single "Oopsie (My Bad)" was launched the same day.

Nature made their official debut in Japan on February 12, 2020, under Pony Canyon with a Japanese rendition of "I'm So Pretty".

On June 1, Nature announced a comeback set for June 17 featuring their third single album, Nature World: Code M. Promotions involved seven members as Loha was on hiatus for health reasons and Aurora remained in China. On June 15, Sunshine was withdrawn from promotional activities due to a leg injury, leaving six active members; however, Sunshine did participate in the showcase event held on June 17.

2022–2024: Nature World: Code W Era and Group Disbandment

On January 13, 2022, through their mockumentary series NATURE Can't Go Down Like This, Nature disclosed preparations for the special album Rica Rica, which was digitally released on January 24—marking their first output in a year and a half. n.CH Entertainment revealed that the choreography for the title track drew inspiration from the Jaouli dance of Ivory Coast. The accompanying music video featured seven members as Loha remained on hiatus due to leg injury but contributed to recording and later promotions. Sunshine did not participate in any further activities after this point.

On October 17, n.CH Entertainment announced the upcoming release of their third mini-album, NATURE World: Code W, initially planned for November 2 but postponed to November 6 out of respect following the Seoul Halloween crowd incident. The five-track record included the lead single "Limbo" alongside previously released "Rica Rica." Member Lu was absent from promotional activities due to health concerns.

By December 2023, Nature's contract with Japanese label Pony Canyon concluded, leading to the closure of their Japanese website and cessation of mailing services by December 27. The group officially disbanded on April 27, 2024.
