Cube Entertainment spoke to Newsen on the 21st June, “4minute will be releasing yet another Brave Brothers-collaborated digital single on the 28th, titled ‘Is it Poppin’ on various music sites. It’s a song that involves a love story. They have completed the recordings and MV shoot for the new song recently”, he revealed.

Regarding 4minute’s ‘Is it Poppin’ concept, he explained, “It’s neither a sexy or charismatic concept, but a cute concept – a hip hop dance song that goes well with the summer feel. It is expected that this comeback will be continuing ‘What’s Your Name’s charms.”

4minute had made their comeback with ‘What’s Your Name’ in April 26th. Not long after its release, the song swept #1 spots on various real-time charts. Despite the 4~5 weeks of promotion, the song remained at #1 on weekly charts, showing the power of a strong idol group.

Most of the girl groups go with the sexy concept recently.

4minute announces return with “Like Water?” with Sohyun’s teasers

It’s true! 4minute is really making their return and here to prove it is a teaser image of Sohyun!

Earlier today, a seemingly random video clip of Sohyun going fishing was uploaded on Cube’s YouTube channel, leaving fans to wonder what was going on.

The question has been answered as the agency has just announced through a press release that the girls will be returning with the song “Like Water?” to cool you down during this heat of summer!

The song is said to be a hip hop dance track that will allow you to feel the unique style of 4minute once again, so stay tuned for its release on the 28th!

4minute Set To Go Head-To-Head With 2NE1 On The K-pop Charts!

Hot on the heels of 2NE1′s comeback announcement comes news that 4minute may be returning with new music as early as the end of this month. According to reports, 4minute’s already filmed a music video for their new single, and are just in the process of finalizing their official comeback date, which is said to be late June. They’re also planning to retain a similar concept to the one they sported during their recent “What’s Your Name?” promotions, which saw the group tone down their fierce image for a more fun and fashionable style.

If 4minute sticks to a late June comeback, or even an early July one, they’ll go head-to-head with 2NE1, who will be back early next month with their first new single in almost a year.

If we were taking bets on a 4minute Vs. 2NE1 chart battle a year ago, 2NE1 coming out on top would’ve been a no-brainer. But a lot has changed in the past six months. 4minute demolished K-pop competitors, T-ara N4 and SECRET, in May with “What’s Your Name?,” which is currently one of the biggest singles of the year and is still ranking in the top ten of the official GAON chart. Meanwhile, 2NE1′s CL flopped with her solo effort, “The Baddest Female,” which was poorly-received by K-pop fans and tanked on the charts. 4minute also has a lot of positive buzz right now thanks to the very recent success of “What’s Your Name?,” whereas 2NE1′s just coming off of CL’s dud solo debut and have released only one single as a group in Korea in the span of almost two years.

Anyway, besides each other, both 4minute and 2NE1 have a lot of other competition to worry about right now. Not only is SISTAR dominating with the release of their sophomore album, late June will see highly-anticipated comebacks from Girl’s Day and Roy Kim, while July will see the return of rising solo superstars, Ailee and John Park. Sunny Hill also just released a new album today (which looks like it’s going to do quite well), and Dal Shabet and B.A.P will be back soon, which will further crowd the charts.

Outside of SISTAR, who do you think will rule the Summer comeback rush?
