[Double Take] 4minute + 2NE1 = 2NE5

Am I going blind or does 4minute (above) really do look like 2NE1 (below)? If you didn’t know there were two separate groups you can easily get confused.  So much for originality.

But people must be getting confused or wanting more of the 80’s flashy neon look because 4minute’s debut single, “Hot Issue” is a runaway hit on Cyworld online music chart with a whopping growth rate of 74,900%! Whoa! Where does that leave 2NE1?

Well, if they both want to dominate the Korean pop scene, they should just join forces and rename themselves- 2NE5

Then everyone will be happy.

Check out 4minute’s photoshoot:

4minute’s music video, “Hot issue” should be released any time now…

    Seriously, is it just me or are the 2NE1 girls ugly… Dara is the only pretty girl in the whole group. The other 3 girls are just nasty. And their wannabe black ghetto girl talking/rapping is a TOTAL TURN OFF!!

    The only two girls that are pretty in 4Minute is HyunAh and that girl thats always wearing glasses with short hair..

    So far, 4Minute hasnt plagiarized any songs from the U.S. I dont recall 4Minute having any copyright issues
    like “I don’t care” did. So who’s really copying who??
