HyunAh,”C’mon girls, we won’t stop!”
Wearing silver headphones bigger than one’s face sat girls in their teens. Surrounding staff helped to choose blonde dyes for the girls.
On the afternoon of the 19th at 2pm, on the second floor of a shopping mall in Seoul’s Dong Dae Mun, was the live shooting of a music video. The person responsible for directing the music video, director of photography a.k.a PD Kim In Goo(?) of Breakfast Productions(?), gave instructions to the girls, “Ok! Look like you enjoy it! Just relax and enjoy!”
“Black looks too dull.” When she gets to rest alone, she lets out a sigh of relief, but the moment she gets in front of the camera, she looks fresh and good on screen.
Amongst teenage girls who dyed their hair blonde, there is Kim HyunAh from girl group 4minute who is 17 and is a second year student at Korea Arts High School’s Music Department. After 1 year of preparation, this group that debuted in June of 2009, has already gotten first placing on SBS programme, Inkigayo, increasing the pace of their development. Kim HyunAh’s manager states, “This month, her schedule is packed and cannot afford to cancel one day off to rest.”
“Even this morning she had to wake up at 4.30am for her schedule, her time is not enough to even clock in the necessary 7 hours of sleep,” HyunAh’s manager added.
4minute didn’t have time to thank the people they wanted to thank, because they didn’t think of winning an award so soon. With the increasing pressure, there was one morning where they had to practice during late night, all the way into the early morning.
“That is because we want to work harder,” said HyunAh.
Recently, with the high influx of female idol groups, many of the most popular groups are attracting a lot of fans, which makes it a competitive market, as fans tend to shift from idols to idols.
When HyunAh first left the entertainment industry, it was not an easy period for her. Many people observed her, and she had to report everything she did to her mom. It was to the extent that even though she didn’t cry, she wanted it to just stop.
