Kim Hyuna (Korean김현아; born June 6, 1992), better known by the mononym Hyuna, stylized as HyunA, is a South Korean dancer, songwriter and model. She is the main rapper and a singer of the Korean girl group, 4Minute,[1] as well as one-half of the musical duo, Trouble Maker, and has also led a successful solo career.

Hyuna first rose to fame as the lead rapper of the Korean girl group Wonder Girls, before she left in 2007 due to health issues.[2] In 2008, she signed with Cube Entertainment[3] and subsequently debuted with 4Minute a year later. Their debut single, "Hot Issue," went on to sell 4 million copies.[4] She also became notable for her solo career, with her debut single, "Change", reaching sales of over 2 million copies. She is also well known for her appearance in Psy's worldwide hit, "Gangnam Style". She describes her solo career as "performance-oriented music."[1]

Early life and education

Hyuna was born on June 6, 1992[5] in Seoul, South Korea. She attended Choongam Middle School and Korea High School of Music and Arts and currently attends Konkuk University, majoring in art culture, receiving special admission to the school.[6]

Hyuna's Hanja name is "泫我". However, her Chinese teacher told her that it sounded weird in Mandarin (pinyin: Xuàn Wǒ, it could be translated as "I weep") and recommended she adopt the characters "泫雅" (pinyin: Xuàn Yǎ) as her name for promotional activities in Taiwan. Hyuna agreed to the change after commenting that "泫雅" sounded adorable.[7][8]

In 2008, she transferred to Cube Entertainment.[3] Hyuna then debuted as part of the girl group 4Minute. Announced in May 2009, the group debuted with the single, "Hot Issue" on June 15.[11][12]

Cube Entertainment stated that the music video would be re-edited and submitted for approval.

HyunA and Hyunseung have proven that the audiences have a lot to look forward to and that the duo is more than just a gimmick devised by Cube Entertainment.
