Hyuna: "There will always be strong competitors no matter what time you make your comeback. Instead of trying to find a period where there aren't strong competitors, we decided to take them on up front. If we have a good song, people will like it."

1. [+135, -11] I think they've been pushed aside by Orange Caramel;;

2. [+128, -13] SNSD and 2NE1 are now nearing the end of their promotions... I don't think they're overlapping promotions at all. And for a group with name value to not win #1 on digital charts is a shame. Everyone practically knows 4minute by now, no? I feel like 4minute always tries to go the safe, public friendly route, which secures them average records but nothing more than that.

3. [+118, -17] Haven't liked a song by 4minute since Hot Issue

4. [+12, -4] But reality is, they're being pushed aside by even Orange Caramel ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+12, -2] Don't think they'll be breaking through any fronts

6. [+10, -2] This is their worst title track by far.......

7. [+7, -1] Their song's just too bad...

8. [+6, -1] You're aiming to do what with that song....
