‘The Romantic & Idol’ Who Has the Heart of Jihyun?
Jihyun, the girl at the center of attention in ‘The Romantic & Idol’, has revealed her choice.
In November 25th’s broadcast of ‘The Romantic & Idol’, Jihyun made her heart clear. Previously, Jihyun had been chosen by JB, MBLAQ’s Mir, ZE:A’s Hyungshik and 2PM’s Jun. K.
Jihyun remarked, “Hyungsik is very comfortable to be around. He talked to me as a man rather than a dongsaeng. Honestly, Jun. K-oppa is very different from how he’s seen in broadcasting stations. He was like a kind oppa when he was teaching me how to drive, so I thought that he must be thoughtful and caring to women. It surprised me.”
Before Jihyun’s selection, the males also showed their concern. JB said, “The other girls aren’t the one,” and chose Jihyun. MBLAQ’s Mir and ZE:A’s Hyungsik also chose Jihyun. Hyungsik said, “Ever since our first meeting until coming here, my heart continues to pound. I get butterflies in my stomach. I really haven’t had this feeling in a long time.”
Jun.K also had a date with Jihyun due to the song-shuffle date before. He said, “Jihyun is really cute. But I had no idea because we never had the chance to spend time together.”
After this, who did the girl at the center of all attention choose? Finally, Jihyun chose ZE:A’s Hyungsik. She said, “I was more attracted to his young age than I thought I would be. Jun. K-oppa is very nice, but his skinship is too natural. I think he matches with Jei-unnie more.”
In the end, Jihyun and Hyungsik were paired together, as were Jun. K and Jei. However, Mir and AOA’s Hyesung were not matched together. Likewise, JB and Rainbow’s Oh Seungah’s pairing also failed.

The insider continued, “Hyuna has been receiving a lot of attention from international media outlets with her new track, ‘Ice Cream‘, and is expected to be the next to continue Psy’s trend. Scooter Braun’s agency has been showing interest especially with her having starred in the ‘Gangnam Style‘ music video. There’s a big possibility that Psy will be meeting with Hyuna in L.A. as well.”
On whether or not this means Hyuna will be preparing for her American advancement remains up in the air. In a previous interview, Hyuna had stated, “I do want to advance but I don’t think it’s anything I can rush. I want to practice more and do it properly, as well as learn more English. Although these are my thoughts, my agency has their own plans so I’m not sure what direction my promotions will take yet.”
Representatives of Cube Entertainment commented, “It is true that Hyuna will be meeting with Scooter Braun’s agency while filming her CF but we haven’t scheduled a definite meeting date yet.”

Hyuna “I Wanted People to Look at Me Favorably as a Rookie…”
# “I Fell A Lot and Got Back Up Too”
It’s already been 6 years since her debut in the entertainment industry. She debuted with the Wonder Girls in 2007 through JYP and later moved to Cube Entertainment and came out with 4minute.
“There was some time when I had no activities after Wonder Girls, so it’s embarassing to say that it’s been 6 years. If I look back, there were a lot of fun days. However, since I’m the type to keep my worries to myself, I always had something on my mind. I wanted people to look at me favorably when I was a rookie, but that wasn’t the case. But now I see that there are more people who like me so I’m happy.”
She went on, “Even today, I went out to eat lunch and had kindergarteners point their fingers and say ‘It’s HyunA.’ I’m happy that little children and restaurant workers recognize me. I fell a lot, but because of that I was able to get back up.”
She revealed that she realizes that she is getting older. Something she thought was right a year ago, she now understands that it’s not the whole picture.
“There were painful experiences in the past, but it helped me to be stronger. Fans nicknamed me ‘HyunA’s mind is a rock’ because of my stability. Haha.”
HyunA also shared a text message her father sent her on the day of the interview.
“My father sent me a text, ‘You must live a happy life,’ I replied, ‘It’s happiness when I receive acceptance from the public for what I enjoy doing.’ He was surprised with my answer. He told me that he didn’t know his daughter grew this much.”

YONHAP INTERVIEW WITH HYUNA
Hyuna, had a chance to sit down for an interview with Yonhap News at KBS’s “Music Bank” dressing room.
HyunA shared, “I think it’s because of PSY that my recent music video received so many views. Also, it’s not just me, but K-Pop as a whole benefited from his achievements.”
# You’re Sexy“I tend to have a ‘strong’ sexy image on stage, but there’s another side to me. I usually wear slippers off stage and staff members nickname me as ‘aegyo’ girl. Nowadays, I have fun switching from cute to sexy. My stage presence is so different from me off stage.”
HyunA didn’t try to hide her flaws.
“I receive strength from netizen comments like ‘She can’t sing, but she’s trying,’ rather than ‘She couldn’t sing before, but she improved now.’ Rather than trying to see me through rose-colored glasses, it’s better that I am criticized for what I did wrong so I can improve every time I stand on stage.”
# Greed for Global Popularity?“I do have eyes on the global market, but don’t want to be hasty. PSY oppa paved the way for other artists, but I’m afraid that I’ll ruin his work if I go unprepared. It’s better if I practice more before advancing. I also need to practice my English if I want to freely communicate in America.”
“It’s really cool to see PSY oppa in a new ad whenever I turn on the TV, ‘Gangnam Style’ being played every couple streets and his picture plastered all over the place. I saw his ‘horse dance’ picture on an American french fries bag and thought, ‘Oh, this isn’t just little popularity. He’s really hit it big.’”

121112 Gayoon's post on fan cafe
4NIAS!
Waw, it really has been a while ㅜㅜㅜㅜ I miss you ㅜㅜㅜㅜ
I had been watching the fan cafe, and I’ve been seeing 4Nias worry a lot about me, being curious about me, asking about my whereabouts so that’s why I decided to post an entry on this late night without thinking twice about it..!
First of all, I am very very sorry.
These days, I have been diligently receiving treatment,. I have been spending my time not at the company but at home in order for me to recover and be healthy.
Judging from the situation, it seems that I have been ill for quite some time and delayed being treated…and that’s what it lead to..ㅜㅜ (4NIAS, be treated as soon as you’re sick ã…œyou have to listen to what the doctor tells you well too!!)
Please don’t worry too much!! I’m feeling much better now!! If you wait a bit more, you will probably see us as five again soon!!
I’ve been eating delicious dishes cooked by my mom, so you will probably see a chubby Gayoon very soon……ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ
Since I’ve been staying at home and there is nothing else for me to do, I have been learning to appreciate the precious things one by one.
The members, 4Nias, the managers oppas, Cube family, the staffs, our dance teacher, our vocal coach, our english teacher too! Even our hectic and tiring schedule sigh!!! Even the exhausting practiceã… ã… ã… ã…
The things I used to hate before, I came to miss them very much now. ã… ã… ã…
Even so, our stream of light, the light at the end of the tunnel…whenever I look at our fancafe!!!!! Even though I used to look at it, I have been closely watching it and looking at everything lately ^^
I’m watching over everything…!!ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹
While reading your posts, I felt really sorry and thankful at the same time ã… ã… ã… I swear, I do not know anything except for our 4NIAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please, from now on do not worry too much, you just need to wait a bit more!^^
When I’m back, I’d have worked hard preparing for our year-end performance and will work even harder working on our new album!
Everyone, the weather is very cold lately so be careful not to catch a cold and also always maintain a good posture. And get the right amount of sleep! And regular meals!!!
I will be watching over you, so don’t you forget^^♡
