It's a very merry Christmas indeed for the members of now defunct girl group 4MINUTE. Three of the five members of the former Cube Entertainment idol group gathered together to celebrate the end of the year.

Members Jiyoon, Gayoon and Sohyun got together for a small reunion, proving that their friendship is still going strong. They were photographed together with some of their friends. According to Koreaboo, SISTAR member Soyou and rapper Shinsadong Tiger were also present at the gathering of friends. Members HyunA and Jihyun were noticeably absent from the get-together. HyunA is currently busy with her activities as a solo singer, which perhaps explains her absence.

4minute disbanded in June this year after 7 years together under Cube Entertainment. When the contracts for each members expired all of them decided not to renew, except for HyunA who re-signed with Cube Entertainment and is now pursuing a solo career.

The members had envisioned a different future for themselves. Some wanted to take on acting and some wanted to move forward as singers. It was also said that the decision to disband came after months of deliberation. It was ultimately decided that it would be difficult to maintain the team given they have different aspirations.

A month after HyunA renewed her contract with Cube Entertainment she released her fifth solo album titled "A'wesome." The track list contains six songs, including the lead single "How's This."

"Actually you can't really tell if it's a good song or a bad one while you're recording," HyunA told Star2 about her new music. "So until it's released and the fans hear it for themselves, it's hard to tell whether a song will be a hit or not."

"A'wesome" saw HyunA taking a more active part in the recording and production process of her album. She even contributed lyrics to all the songs on the album.
