Qri threw her fans in for a loop with her newest selca.

The gorgeous T-ara member looked pretty with a shower cap pulling back all her hair. But combined with her rather unique cell phone case, the picture turned a little spooky. She herself admitted that it was a little bizarre, tweeting, “Sorry if you were surprised. Good night~~“.
