  1. I read the article and dang as a former avid 4nia, I didn’t know she moved to Bali bc she was struggling mentally massively

    4minute disbandment + not being able to transition into actress pathway quickly + older brother’s sudden death, what a molotov cocktail of stress for her

    I’m very curious what Cube offered her for her to willingly come back (esp considering they disbanded 4minute out of nowhere, I dare say 4minute didn’t even reach their ultimate peak of their career – their disbandment is as bad as Gfriend’s sudden disbandment)

    And also curious on what sort of creative direction she has in mind for the new idol group. I do wonder if there’s a tiny teeny possibility of her making a comeback as an idol too down the line if she’s up for it

  2. One of the most unique voices in K-pop! So happy to have her back in the industry!

  3. Woah this is interesting. Happy that she’s finding success/new opportunities. I was a 4nia back in the day; 4minute was the first gg I stanned 🥺

    Cube is falling into old traps, she’s for sure being hired to work with their female trainees leading up to their debut, because CUBE needs another hit group to start growing before idle leaves them now that it’s pretty clear that won’t be NOWZ and they’ve already given up on lightsum.

    This is the second time after idle (who saved them from their trouble when the roster that built the company left and the rest of the roster struggled to make up for their absences), their business model now really is as simple as “debut an act that must do well or creditors will come take our kneecaps —> get lucky and they do —> rely on them entirely and fail to copy the success for 7+ years —> shit, what happens when they leave though? —> ohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuck —> debut an act that has to do well or creditors come take our kneecaps….”.

  5. huh, that was unexpected. i’m still sad we didn’t get anything for 4minute’s 10th or 15th anniversary.

    Additional info: She did her group 4M’s outfits starting from What’s Your Name to Hate. I really loved the styling in their Hate stages and even What’cha Doin Today are still pretty.

    I kinda want to see 4M’s reunion ngl
    But like someone said, I just hope Cube won’t take her for granted. Maybe she will give Cube’s rookie groups the concepts and styling they needed.

  7. I’m surprised people are shocked by this. Its probably a well paid job and its at a familiar location getting to work with trainees and guide them, who better to help tham than a former idol? Sounds perfect tbh and I hope she does well. Sure its at Cube which perhaps didn’t treat her well – but there are probably lots of new people there now who had no part in that. A job is a job.
