4minute's HyunA under criticism for super short mini-dress

[etude.livejournal.com]

Girl group 4Minute’s member Kim HyunA has been put under the chopping board of the netizens for the performing costumes she wore, which was deemed indecent and inappropriate for the young fans.

A video of HyunA performing with 4Minute on their new song ‘Muzik’ has been uploaded on Youtube on 19th September, and HyunA’s mini-dress was spotted constantly going up while she carries out the choreography of the song. While she was dancing, the really short miniskirt kept going up, to the point her underpants was visible. HyunA was even seen pulling her mini-dress down.

Obviously, the fashion malfunction lies in the fault of the group’s fashion coordinator.

Netizens say:

• “For a young teenager, she is wearing one really short minidress”


• “What’s with the coordi?”


• “At this rate, her outfit will be deem inappropriate and lascivious”


• “This is really going overboard, she is still so yong, u 17 years old”


• “This is pathetatic, why are the singers suddenly all under criticisms? It’s like our country has done something. It happened to both male and female singers – beasty idols, sexy idols, young idols”


• “Looking at it, her skirt just need to be a little longer and it solves the problem”


• “Coordi, you should try wearing it”

“For a young teenager, she is wearing one really short minidress”

Oh so they do realize that most of these girls are young teenagers...for a minute that I thought they didn't...*looks at other concepts...

“Coordi, you should try wearing it”

I love this netizen.
it was obviously not hyuna's fault, so I'm glad the netizens aren't calling her slut or anything.
She kept pulling it down, poor thing.

IA.
I know right, you have to sympathize with her...I'm sure we all had those moments before~
*I know I have*

poor girl looked so uncomfortable ): srsly though, this dress is not meant to be worn when dancing. wth was the coordi thinking...

This :(

[cookie-nut.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I agree this is DEFINITELY on the person or people responsible for their wardrobe.

I don't know WTF they were thinking. :/

[tabi.livejournal.com]

As much as this is mostly the coordi's fault, Idk why Hyuna herself didn't say anything about her dress? Are they disallowed to say anything about their outfit choices? I mean, if I had to wear a dress like that, I would be all DNW.

[unreal.livejournal.com]

I was thinking the same.

[hey-insomnia.livejournal.com]

I wonder when these reporters will stop making articles like this? It's like they're relying on the netizens for news all the time.

[miduhyo.livejournal.com]

that's how the korean press works, that's how it's worked for a long time, and i don't see it changing any time soon, personally.

[booksandsarcasm.livejournal.com]

xD I dunno. What I think sucks that is because of groups of netizens blowing things WOW out of proportion, when there is legitimately something to complain about it's written off as 'just the netizens complaining again.' It sucks for all the people who aren't always running their mouth because when they genuinely have a complaint or opinion it becomes like this. xD

[evil-zucchini.livejournal.com]

I wish they'd style idols more age appropriately. I mean, I know they're in the entertainment business and image matters and yadda yadda yadda, but most of these girls aren't even legal yet.

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

Blame the company.
They know exactly how short these skirts are. Not just for them but all of them. They know how the camera is angled and where the crowd sits.
They are puppets they wear what they are given.
Also i do think that's what dress rehearsals are for to see any foreseeable probs and they all got the thumbs up grin from the peeps in charge.

“Coordi, you should try wearing it”

I like this reply. 4Minute still sucks at live perfs though. But whatever. I still like the girls though. Haha.

[hey-insomnia.livejournal.com]

4Minute still sucks at live perfs

MTE. I still dig them though. I always watch their performances on youtube. LMAO.

[gabbeeee.livejournal.com]

Im so glad the netizens are actually blaming the coordi and not screaming slut like they did tiffany

[etude.livejournal.com]

IA, I thought they'd go all out on her,
glad they're being reasonable!

“This is pathetatic, why are the singers suddenly all under criticisms? It’s like our country has done something. It happened to both male and female singers – beasty idols, sexy idols, young idols”

:/ you got that right.

also, lol at "pathetatic"?

[eclara-9.livejournal.com]

The underlined part makes me sad ;____;

[oldwillow-brook.livejournal.com]

Everyone kept reading past the word. And I was thinking does anyone notice that pathetatic ISN'T a word? XDD

[robotiques.livejournal.com]

They obviously didn't have her practice dancing in it before they sent her out on stage. \:

[stelf.livejournal.com]

rofl me too me too.

[stopthedisco.livejournal.com]

It's more like "4minute coordi under criticism" lol. But yeah seriously, Hyuna is, what, 17? I'm about her age as well and my parents and friends would never let me out wearing something like that so wtf is up with the coordi/stylist.

“This is pathetatic, why are the singers suddenly all under criticisms? It’s like our country has done something. It happened to both male and female singers – beasty idols, sexy idols, young idols”

Ilu sane netizen.

[oystersauce87.livejournal.com]

It is really short but at least the safety shorts(?) is the same length as the skirt and her undies isn't visible

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

i'm curious - is it really just underwear underneath that or does she have on shorts? not that it matters that much, because that dress is still way too short and her coordis really should have at least had her practice dancing in it first (there's lots of hip movement - it was bound to go up) but yeah... curious!

[edgirl-12.livejournal.com]

...she's 17??!

[audiobebop.livejournal.com]

That's what I'm saying!

[patapoufe.livejournal.com]

The coordi puts together the outfits, so in all likelihood she/he picked out the dress. The company hires coordinators exactly for that purpose after all. : o

[visual-jaeho.livejournal.com]

None of them is 20 yet, the oldest was born in 1990 and the youngest in 1994, but yes they look older than their real age.

[pickychu.livejournal.com]

I don't get why they couldn't give Hyunah leggings with that outfit. It would go with almost everyone's look seeing as half of them are already wearing leggings.

[moyashii.livejournal.com]

I'm ngl, but she looks super skanky in that :| I don't approve.

[snamorsixteen.livejournal.com]

"under the chopping board of the netizens"

oh yes. there is a CHOPPING BOARD for korean netizens. a butcher shop even for stars they don't like.

[nudrive.livejournal.com]

I feel so sorry for her.
She had to keep on pulling it down :/

But srsly, what were they thinking? I wouldn't even want to wear that around the house let alone wear it while dancing on stage
