Yes, that is correct. I am not 100% sure on this topic but I believe it is Denmark and Sweden, of the Nordics, that signed up in 1992 to Maastricht which would mean eventually joining. But, in both cases, they haven't done so because it isn't popular (Denmark failed a referendum in 2000).
And their choice is not to peg to an economic region that is nothing like their own (although tbf, this is true of Germany/Netherlands/Austria/etc. too). The EU is not inevitable. The distortion to financial markets is not worth any political benefit (this has been true of the EU since its inception, first Germany and France were in crisis, then 2008, then debt crisis...what a mess).
