HyunA Reunites with Kwon So-hyun, Silences 4Minute Feud Rumors After 9 Years
On June 24, HyunA posted several photos on her social media without any captions, showing her and Kwon So-hyun posing closely and affectionately, showcasing their ongoing chemistry.
Kwon So-hyun also took to her SNS, writing “I’m so thankful, happy and touched that someone is cheering for my new journey. I’m going to cry… Thank you so much” along with a video.
In the video, Kwon So-hyun is seen reacting emotionally to a cake prepared by HyunA, saying “Thank you, sis. I’m truly touched. I didn’t expect it at all. It’s so pretty, how could I even eat it?”, expressing heartfelt gratitude.
HyunA warmly responded “Do everything you want to do on YouTube. Go after whatever you truly want to do”, showing strong support for So-hyun’s new endeavors.
Previously, Nam Ji-hyun, former leader of legendary girl group 4Minute, marked the group’s 16th debut anniversary on June 18 with a nostalgic and touching tribute—while subtly ending long-standing speculation about a feud with fellow member HyunA.
Posting on social media, Nam Ji-hyun shared throwback photos and an emotional message reflecting on their years as idols. Her tribute prominently included all five members—Heo Ga-yoon, Jeon Ji-yoon, Kwon So-hyun, and notably, HyunA—reigniting fond memories for fans and silencing persistent rumors of a fallout.
Whispers of a rift between HyunA and the rest of the group had circulated for months, particularly after HyunA’s wedding with singer Yong Jun-hyung in October went unattended by the other four members. When Ji-hyun, Ga-yoon, Ji-yoon, and So-hyun later reunited publicly without HyunA in March, speculation grew stronger.
But Ji-hyun’s anniversary post turned that narrative around. She prepared flowers and cakes to celebrate the milestone and made sure to include HyunA in her heartfelt memories. In response, HyunA posted an old group photo with the caption: “We were so beautiful, so precious.”
Ji-hyun’s caption read in part:
“Back then, when I only felt vague gratitude and was unsure how to build relationships… Watching our manager drive us through all-nighters, traveling the world, performing in languages we didn’t know—those were truly sparkling moments.”
She concluded with a message of gratitude:
“Our 20s were filled with tight schedules, connections, and love. Those glittering times remind me to live even better moving forward. To our members, staff, and fans who still remember and support us—thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
The public exchange between Ji-hyun and HyunA now offers a heartwarming closure to fans, reminding everyone that no matter where life takes the members, the bond they formed under the name 4Minute remains unbreakable.
