[NEWS] 4minute fansite closes due to Hyunah's impending solo

Chinese 4minute fansite, LikeTheMuzik, has recently closed down due to disappointment over Hyunah's impending solo. However, the owner of this fansite did not leave quietly.

LikeTheMuzik was a 4minute fansite where 4nias could gather to talk about 4minute and download their latest TV appearances. Since its shutdown, the owner of the fansite has compiled several pictures and also left a message on the website. The pictures that the owner created are "facts about Kim Hyunah" that show his intense opposition against Hyunah.



The owner's first fact shows Hyunah and her fans defending the "Bubble Pop" star against shaming accusations. However, the picture ends with Hong Seungsung, the CEO of Cube, replying, "If you are not, then who?", reflecting the owner's thoughts about Hyunah's stage persona. (A/N: The English version uses bitch, but the Korean version uses 창녀, which is more appropriately translated as whore.)



The owner's second fact begins with Hyunah's confessions in recent shows, where she reveals that life is not as easy as it seems for her. In this scenario, when told by fans to stop acting in a cheap manner, Hyunah responds, "No way! I'm bitch style!", referencing Hyunah's recent involvement in Psy's worldwide hit "Gangnam Style".



The last picture depicts citizens watching TV, showing pity over those who are forced to become prostitutes to overcome adversities in their lives. They then complain after seeing a perfeormance of Hyunah's "Trouble Maker". The last frame of this picture shows Hyunah's parents living happily with the money Hyunah is making through her controversial work.

Finally, the author leaves a message to the visitors of his site.

If you love 4minute, don't hate Hyunah
If you love 4minute, don't talk about Ssang-Yoon unit
If you love 4minute, congratulate to Hyunah
If not, 4minute will get hurt
So, I don't love 4minute any more
No matter 4minute hurts or not, I really hate Hyunah the bitch

The LikeTheMuzik owner acknowledges that 4minute fans should not hate Hyunah for the numerous opportunities given to her over the other members. They should instead support Hyunah and not complain about 4minute's long-rumored "Double-Yoon" unit. However, this person reveals that he is no longer a 4minute fan because he cannot abide by these rules and suppress his hatred of Hyunah anymore. He then leaves a closing message, saying "Lastly, to those who have been supporting this place, sorry. Goodbye."

Cube's spotlight of Hyunah over the other members has long been controversial. Many fans have felt that Hyunah is unfairly favored over the other members due to her many solo projects and variety appearances. However, not many have expressed their displeasure in such a high-profile, extreme way.

[NEWS] Yang Yoseob's flood of tears during 'Hello' recording... why? @itzmeys

Yang Yoseob's flood of tears during 'Hello' recording... why?

[OSEN= Cho Shinyoung Reporter] BEAST's main vocal Yang Yoseob had shed a flood of tears during the recording for KBS 2TV 'Hello' attracting attention. Even before the episode had been aired, the rumor that the recording had been a "sea of tears" had been spreading amongst the fans.
During the recording for 'Hello' that took place on the 19th, one female who was aspiring to be a singer at the age of 27 appeared with the words, "please make a decision if I can become a singer." On this day, the guests on the show were members of BEAST, who had made a comeback recently.

According to the staff, this woman had been living the trainee life under one famous management. However, she faced many pains of elimination in the process of a team being made. In addition, she broke the heart of the audience when she admitted that she had been scammed by one of the "ghost" agencies in the past.

However, the reason why she kept on going until the age of 27 was because of her mother. Her mother couldn't accept the fact that her daughter can't be a singer so after pondering to herself about her future plans, she decided to visit 'Hello' with the question, "Can I be a singer?"

So when the producers of the program heard about her story, they made a stage for the woman to show off her talents and skills and for the first time on the program, instead of choosing between the answers "that is a real question, or no" the audience had to choose between "she has a talent to be a singer, or no."

But, when Yang Yoseob heard her story, he started to bring up his own and ended up showing his tears. Yoseob said spilling his tears, "I was also a trainee and whenever a team was being assembled, I was always disqualified. For the last time, I auditioned with Lee Kikwang for BEAST and beforehand we decided that we were going quit being singers if we were eliminated again. But through the audition, I was able to join BEAST." In addition, he confessed why he had to become a singer and his dreams of being a singer.

Watching Yang Yoseob cry on a program surprised the BEAST members and Yoon Doojoon suggested that Lee Kikwang and Yang Yoseob send a letter to each other during the recording. Then, Yang Yoseob showed tears once again saying "thank you" to Lee Kikwang.

The production team staff stated, "Everyone was serious when they made their choice for the woman. In addition, Yang Yoseob's genuine tears showed his honesty. Please watch the show to watch for yourselves,"

Meanwhile, the story of the woman that made BEAST's Yang Yoseob cry can be seen on 'Hello', which will be broadcasted on the 27th.

[NEWS] Hyunah holds a tearful confession with her members St

Hyunah could not stop her tears while confessing her feelings towards her groupmates.

In the latest episode of 4minute's Travel Maker, 4minute shared their innermost feelings with each other. Hyunah revealed her thoughts on her group, "I'm very proud of 4minute. No matter how others criticize us, I believe all five of us are amazing individuals." Hyunah began to tear up as she continued on, "I think we're all irreplaceable. Just like when Gayoon-unnie was sick or when I was sick, we were all so worried and we found it hard to continue on even with four other members."

In an attempt to hide her tears, Hyunah put on her sunglasses, but when her tears fell even harder, she added, "I don't know why I can't stop crying like this."

She continued to profess, "Don't get sick and weary, guys. Let's hold on and keep going with one heart and one goal, just like we are now."

Seeing Hyunah's teary confession, the other members could not hold back their tears as well.

4minute maknae Sohyun also revealed, "I want 4minute to stay together forever, but if it doesn't work out the way we want it to, I hope we'll still be close. I want us to live in the same area or even the same building, and we can always meet up and see each other often. I don't want us to ever drift apart."

Viewers who saw 4minute's touching confessions left comments such as, "She seems to be really close with her members", "They all care for each other so much", and "Hyunah's tears seem very genuine."

[NEWS] Hyunah making a "Latin style" comeback in October

4minute’s Hyunah is preparing to make a comeback in October with a Latin-style song.

Hyunah's debut solo album “Bubble Pop” was a viral hit and received lots of love and popularity. Thus, she will be releasing her second solo album in October, 1 year and 3 months after her first one.

Hyunah's comeback will be “Latin style.” Shinsadong Tiger will once again compose the title track, a song infused with Latin elements.

The director for her MV will be Hong Wongi. President of Cube Entertainment Hong Seungsung revealed, “We are filming Hyunah's MV in South America for this comeback. We will be shooting in multiple countries such as Peru, Chile, Argentina, and more."

The reason for this destination may be due to 4minute’s popularity amongst South Americans. In December 2011, Cube Entertainment held their United Cube Concert in Brazil, where 4minute received explosive reactions from locals.

Hyunah's song Bubble Pop received much attention worldwide, even ranking #9 on Spin Magazine's "Best 20 Songs of 2011".
