[news/video] 4Minute in Hong Kong

The girls have already went to Taiwan, Philippines and Thailand for their Asia Tour. This time, they are here in Hong Kong for a 5D4N trip to promote their mini album, 'For Muzik'. As HyunAh has to attend Music Bank on the 19th, only 4 members arrived in the Hong Kong airport. The flight was about half an hour late (they reached at 12:40AM), but that did not affect the 50 fans (approximately) who came very early in the morning to the airport to secure a good spot. The girls wore shorts and thin shirts, as if telling everyone they are fearless of the cold weather. 4 bodyguards were present to ensure the safety of the girls.

Members of the media and press were impressed because 4Minute did not put on airs as the hottest Hallyu stars, but instead, allowed everyone and anyone to take photos of them. Other than greeting the fans, accepting their gifts and giving out autographs, the girls called out "I love you!" when fans screamed "Saranghaeyo!" Even after they have boarded the shuttle bus, they did not show any sign of impatience at the fans chasing after them, and even smiled and waved. For more pics of the girls at the airport, click here.

On the same day, the girls were interviewed by various media groups in Hong Kong, then proceeded to have a Japanese style dinner with their manager in the evening. HyunAh joined them later in the day.

Today, 20th of February, 4Minute attended 'EMax X 4Minute fan-signing' with fellow Universal Music label-mates (seniors), Mr. , and exchanged autographed albums. Check out some videos below.

[news] BEAST, Putting their comeback ahead and their surprise entrance in 'Invincible Youth' "Look Out For a Completely Different Look"

[Newsen's Reporter Lee Eunhyuk]

The comeback countdown of the 6-member boy group BEAST has begun.

Before their comeback, BEAST (Yoon Doojoon, Yong Junhyung, Yang Yoseob, Jang Hyunseung, Lee Kikwang, Son Dongwoon) appeared in KBS 2TV 'Invincible Youth' while 'Producer Hyuna,' who participates actively and lives under the same roof as G7, had to set out for a supporting fire as 4MINUTE Hyuna.

BEAST, who flew a homerun with 'Mystery' after debuting with 'Bad Girl' in 2009, Yoon Doojoon has been actively working and showing various sorts of skills in many different places in MBC Sunday Sunday Night's 'Danbi.'

Recently, the CUBE Entertainment agency signed a contract at a mutual signing ceremony with the worldwide record company Universal Music, moving to advance overseas.

[news] U-Kiss Interview (Sports Chosun T-news Interview w/ Ukiss)

Sports Chosun T-News] The group U-Kiss is always working towards the future.

For them to debut was in August of 2008. But for U-Kiss to actually gain popularity in their name was November of last year with the song 'ManManHani.' Their competition was greater. Near the same time U-Kiss debuted, 2PM also came out. The members had to watch their competition grow more and more popular, how would have felt through this?

With 1 year and 5 months since their debut, their first album Ukiss's 'Only One' was released and the members were finally able to wipe off their sorrows from then.

With 'ManManHani' they've transformed completely.
They were able to compare their lives before and after their comeback 'ManManHani.' The comparison of their past and present lives are too big.

There isn't just one bad memory of U-Kiss. Their backstage room was labeled 'U-Kizz' at one time, but that isnt it. At one concert, 6 members were given 5 mics and had to perform live sharing mics.

On a cue sheet for a music program, U-Kiss's song was named 'Unkwown.'

The members say "Those unfortunate situations made us lose our confidence, we didn't want to leave the backstage room with other popular singers staring at us, unkwown."

But with their big hit "ManManHani" their entire lives were changed. Wherever they go, they have the confidence to say something now.

Ukiss's recalls "We shot our first CF since debut. We actually looked foward to our music video setting for once!" and "Particularly when our manager hyung receives calls for schedules we can hear the power in his voice."

From Strong Guy dance to 'Whirlwind' Dance

With the overloading popularity their burdens have gotten greater too. Their popularity from 'ManManHani' is supporting their high rankings with 'Bingeul Bingeul.'
Their recent release on the 3rd raised their standings on various music charts and downloading sites.
Their "Bingeul Bingeul" is another great track from the Brave Brothers. The electronic hip-hop song has an addicting feel which can hopefully rise above 'ManManHani'

More importantly, the 'Strong Man' dance from 'ManManHani' left fans wanting more which the 'Bingeul Bingeul''s 'Whirlwind Dance' gave.

Ukiss's popularity is swifting to other countries.

The first album has 14 tracks made with their determined sweat and blood.
Including their title song 'Bingeul Bingeul,' other tracks such as 'Without You,' the addicting song 'What,' and one of the best 'Dancing Floor' show Ukiss's strong image.
Winning over their past sorrows, Ukiss's new album and concept has shown a great reaction from fans.
With their successful promotions in Korea their road to promoting more overseas has opened. They're planning on touring 8 countries in Asia a few of them being Hong Kong, Japan, China, Thailand, Finland. Their plans are to promote their albums and perform in concerts.

Ukiss's overall goal is to 'receive number 1 on a music show' and with the great success from 'ManManHani' they're more determined in winning number 1 with a fresh new song.
