LADIES' CODE (Hangul: 레이디스 코드) is a South Korean girl group under Polaris Entertainment. The group's original lineup consisted of leader Ashley (애슐리) and members RiSe (리세), EunB (은비), Sojung (소정), and Zuny (주니). They made their debut with the mini-album Code#01 Bad Girl and the title track "Bad Girl", which were released on March 7, 2013.
On September 3, 2014, the members were involved in a car accident in which RiSe and Sojung were severely injured and EunB was tragically killed. RiSe later died on September 7, due to her injuries from the accident.
In the wake of EunB and RiSe's deaths, the group would go on to achieve major success on the music charts as fans of the group began posting messages on online communities and SNS encouraging people to listen to the song "I'm Fine Thank You" as a tribute and to fulfill EunB's dream of ranking first on the music charts.
The group's final performance with all five members aired on KBS on September 14, 2014, bookended with a tribute to EunB and RiSe. On September 15, 2014, Polaris Entertainment released a tribute music video of "I'm Fine Thank You", using behind-the-scenes footage of the group to honor EunB and RiSe.
On April 26, 2015, it was reported that Zuny, Ashley, and Sojung had resumed their practice schedule while continuing to receive counseling and follow-up treatments for injuries sustained from the crash.
They returned as a trio on February 24, 2016 with the title track "Galaxy".
On October 13, 2016, Ladies' Code released their single album Strang3r along with the title track "The Rain".
On December 12, 2018, the group released a Christmas single "The Last Holiday", making it their first release in two years as a group.
In May 2019, Ladies' Code released a single titled "Feedback (너의 대답은)".
On October 10, 2019, Ladies' Code released their fourth album Code#03 Set Me Free, their third from the "Code" series. This album was released six years after Code#02 Pretty Pretty. The title track for their fourth album is called "Set Me Free", and was written by 1Take and TAK.
On February 17, 2020, all of the three members left Polaris Entertainment following the expiration of their contracts with the label. The group is currently on indefinite hiatus, with the members pursuing solo careers.
