4minute

4Minute (Korean: 포미닛) is a popular five-member South Korean girl group created by Cube Entertainment in 2009. The group's leader is Nam Ji-hyun, and the other members are Heo Ga-yoon, Jeon Ji-yoon, Kim Hyun-a, and Kwon So-hyun.[1] The girls released their first single on June 15, 2009 and made their debut stage last June 18, 2009 on Mnet M! Countdown. Their official fan club name is "4Nia" --- a combination of 4Minute and mania.


Cube Entertainment announced the creation of 4Minute in May 2009, along with the identity of two of the group's members, Nam JiHyun, the group's leader and Kim Hyunah, a former member of Wonder Girls.[2] On 11 June 2009, the silhouette teaser video was released online, along with their official website.[3] The remaining three members' identities were not announced until June 12.[4]
Cube Entertainment had released a teaser for their first single "Hot Issue" on 10 June while the single debuted on June 18. The group promoted the song from its release until August. At the end of August, 4Minute released a mini-album called "For Muzik" which was alongside their second single, "Muzik". 4Minute won a mutizen award and a mnet award for their second single "Muzik". Their third single was "What A Girl Wants" was released shortly after the release of their EP.
On 21 June 2009, after the first week of "Hot Issue" promotions, fans stole various items from the group's van, including clothing and other items. Cube Entertainment said, "It was very unfortunate that such an ordeal occurred."[5] Two months later, on 27 August, KBS banned the playing of "Won't Give You (안줄래)" for what they considered to be overly sexual lyrical content.[6] The lyrics in question, in the style of a first-person narrative, express an unwillingness on the part of the subject to "give" herself or her heart to her partner. Cube Entertainment responded to the ban by stating that the song was intended to be "about the pure feelings of a girl to a guy" and that they were very disappointed by the decision.[7][8]
4Minute was featured in fellow label-mate Mario's Christmas digital single "Jingle Jingle", which was released on 2 December 2009; the music video premiered online on December 3, 2009. They also recorded a remix with American artist Amerie for her song 'Heard 'Em All' that was released on the Asian version of her fourth album.[9]
