4Minute's Kim HyunA uploaded a playful picture of them through her Twitter as to inform their fans on how much they have enjoyed their visit in Malaysia.

4Minute took this shot from a premiere shopping street in Malaysia. The girls decided to make a wacky, silly picture that would show their cute personalities. As you can see, 4Minute's leader, Nam Jihyun, who's the tallest among the them, raised her arms, resulting to HyunA posing with her knees bent, hiding half of her face showing a comic expression as she placed her face near Jihyun's underarms. It's also noticeable how Gayoon made a funny-expression too which somehow relates to Jihyun's underarm too.

From that picture, fans commented:

"What are you doing HyunA unnie ㅋ ㅋ! Why are you girls doing that .. ㅠ ㅠ "

"HyunA unnie lol. Can you get that smell?"

"Those are my idols, girls like 4Minute! Your reactions are very interesting."


Meanwhile, 4Minute has also started filming their newest TV show entitled "4Minute's Mr. Teacher" which aims to prepare the girls for their upcoming promotional activities outside South Korea. The show aims to have the girls of 4Minute learn the language and culture of different Asian countries such as Thailand, Taiwan and Japan.

For now, it has been confirmed that Nichkhun's brother will be the group's teacher for their Special Thailand episode.

[News] G.NA Teaser. Point in Common with lovers Doojoon - Jinwoon? All former JYP trainees

Posted: 14 Jan 2011 05:45 AM PST



[Newsen Lee Eonhyeok Reporter]

Singer G.NA has revealed the teaser video that she and 2AM's Jinwoon had filmed together.

At 10 am on the 14th, CUBE Entertainment released the teaser video for G.NA's 1st full album 'Black & White' on the official fan café and other online video sites.

G.NA held an enthusiastic performance with 2AM's Jinwoon after her debut song 'I'll Back Off So You Can Live' music video, which she had filmed with Yoon Doojoon. Jinwoon posted a playful tweet on twitter saying "This time around, I'm Gina noona's boyfriend?"

Before her debut, G.NA was a JYP trainee along with Yoon Doojoon and Jinwoon. The fact that these two people announce that they are transforming into G.NA's boyfriends every album release shows the work of a long time friendship in action.

Within the 1 minute long teaser, G.NA and Jinwoon enter as lovers and a romantic atmosphere filled the air. These two people loved each other, but after breaking up, they both cried at the thought of beautiful past memories. This scene can remind one of a melodrama.

Especially in the 'back hug' scene, where he pulls her in warmly with large snowflakes falling in the background and happiness sinking in, viewers' hearts become thrilled.

G.NA's first full album will be released on music sources on the 18th.
