130731 K-pop Face-Off: 4minute HyunA vs. Brown Eyed Girls Gain

4minute, HyunA, Brown Eyed Girls, Gain

Did I just open a forbidden can of worms? 4Minute’s Hyuna and Brown Eyed Girls’ Gain have one thing in common: they have sex appeal oozing from their pores. When I think about sex pots in K-pop, these two pop up in my head immediately. Over the years both ladies have proven to be the stars in their groups and continue to show the world how they bring sexy back time and time again. But who is the ultimate sexy lady? Let’s round these two out in today’s K-pop face-off!

HyunA, HyunA, HyunA. She’s 4Minute’s most popular member and one of the hottest singers in the K-pop scene. Known for her sexy figure, scandalously delicious dance moves, and seductive winks, HyunA is undoubtedly trying to win the title of sexiest K-pop female performer. Her first solo debut, “Change” was a huge hit with audiences but had a 19+ rating due to her provocative pelvis thrusts, outfits, and dance moves. Fast forward to her “Bubble Pop” days, and HyunA still proved to be a sex goddess to reckon with when she danced her way in a wife beater and short booty shorts. Her fame skyrocketed to new heights when she became the hot female lead in Psy’s worldwide hit, “Gangnam Style.”

Brown Eyed Girls’s Ga-In is someone I like to call fearless. She’s not afraid to cross boundaries and showed us just that in the group’s hit music video and song, “Abracadabra.” The controversial video features Ga-In engaging in some rough movements with a male actor, floor humping inappropriate dance moves, stripping of shirts, and an almost kiss with fellow member Narsha. She also starred as Psy’s female lead in his follow-up hit to “Gangnam Style,” “Gentleman,” which featured the singer acting sexy and goofy alongside the superstar talent.

Who is your choice for sexiest pop singer?

130705 4Minute's Huh Gayoon Doesn't Like Her Small Feet

4Minute’s Huh Gayoon has once again admitted that doesn’t like the fact that she has really small feet and ankles during a recent airing of KBS’s “Happy Together Season 3,” featuring Huh Gayoon, Hyuna, Sistar’s Dasoom, Soo Yoo, Super Junior’s Kyu Hyun and Henry.

Huh Gayoon was appearing as a guest in Happy Together’s “What is Your Name?” special featuring slightly lesser known members accompanied by their more familiar group member. During one of the discussions they began to talk about what qualities they possessed that were unique to them. Gayoon’s stand out feature was her self proclaimed “Nano-sized ankles” which Hyuna claims is the same size as most female’s wrists.

Gayoon then talks about how her extremely small 210.22mm feet size (Size 35 in the EU and Size 5 in the US) was something that she didn’t like about herself. She then mentions how she has to wear 3~4 socks just so her feet are big enough to fit within the heels she needs to wear during her on stage performances.

This is of course not the first time she has mentioned her small feet. She was previously on “Beetles Code 2” where she actually showed everyone how she was wearing multiple socks while her super small ankles has caught the eyes of fans several times previously. As someone with reasonably sized feet (280mm) i have no relative idea about how small this actually is but i can reasonably assume that it would be quite difficult to find shoes that aren’t designed for primary school kids in mind.

So any readers here with extremely small or large feet? What kind of difficulties do you face? Would be interesting to see if there is someone with even smaller feet that Huh Gayoon.

130704 4minute Huh Gayoon Reveals Secret About HyunA ‘Breathes Hard on Stage To Stand Out’

Dasom revealed that her moves get more exaggerated and Huh Gayoon said she does the opposite of what the other members do.

Huh Gayoon also said, “HyunA’s breathing gets rougher. At the ending of the song, if all the members stop in one position and hold in their breathing, HyunA especially breathes loudly and looks at the camera,” arousing laughter.

HyunA, slapping Huh Gayoon’s butt for putting her on the spot, said, “That’s not it. The members keep making fun of me for that.”
