On the set of MTV show "4minute's Friend Day"

"Who lied that it was going to rain? See, it is one of the most often-told lies by grown-ups." HyunA says sulkily as the day is bright and sunny, contrary to the weather forecast. But, even as she complains, she cannot hide the smile that spreads around her mouth. The shoot for MTV show "4minute's Friend Day," in which members of girl band 4minute become friends with civilians, kicked off with HyunA's jolly whining. Today's shoot will feature 4minute going on a picnic to Gang-chon with three female high-school students, 23-year-old military reserve officer and Ha Jae-ik, the son of Ha Il [Korean name for famous American lawyer and TV personality Robert Holly who lives in Korea]. They board the train with excitement in their hearts, leaving behind the awkwardness they felt during the opening shoot at Cheongryangri station.

At the beginning of the episode, Jae-woo, who is the oldest among the group, grabs attention with his story about "hugging HyunA who came to [his] military base to perform." But less than thirty minutes later, he becomes overpowered by the storm of girl talk and gets pushed out of the spotlight. They start playing 'The Image Game' where they can attack one another's weaknesses, and their own messed-up version of '1-4-7 Game,' causing a raucous on the train for quite some time. Then they go after the producer's wallet, asking "How much does it cost to buy everything in the [snack] cart?" The ten cast members sure look like a group of troublemakers.

What's more, they begin racing with carts and playing a fishing game near the stream. With kimbap and chicken set up as prizes, the games add fuel to their competitive fire. Gayoon displays incredible speed worthy of a car racer and makes the producers repeatedly shout out, "Huh Force!" In a bid to recover their masculine image, Jae-woo and Jae-ik, who were feeling a bit left out among the female herd, play the fishing game as if their life depended on it. The cast shows no sign of physical exhaustion, not even after spending the whole day shooting the show. Watching HyunA hop on a bike and circle the cart track on her own free will, one thought comes to mind; yeah, being young is the best thing in the world.
