[News] Universal Music Japan released 4Minute's FIRST Short Ver. MV

The 4Minute Japan craze is really coming near! Just a while ago, Universal Music Japan, 4Minute's label in Japan, has just released a Short Version of 4Minute's FIRST MV. Although it's merely a Teaser and a Low quality video, I believe that this will still not fail to make us, 4Nias, to scream in front of our screen and wish for more.

Among the girls, Jiyoon and Sohyun had the biggest change, which is pretty obvious with their hair colors.HyunA had the curly hair in the dance part, while Gayoon and Jihyun maintained their black hair.

The dance is pretty interesting too, most especially the "butt-tap" dance step which is expected to garner much attention. Overall, I believe that it's a well done music video. Let us all stand by for the Full version of the Music Video and their Full comeback to the Japanese market!

Here's the MV anyway :
