4minute announced the release of their first Japanese single of 2011, “WHY“, just under two weeks ago, and a little while after that announcement, they revealed a 45-second preview of the track.
Just recently, the group revealed the album covers and tracklists for the three versions of the single. As previously covered, it will come in two limited editions and one normal edition. The limited editions (A & B) will contain a DVD with some combination of a PV, behind-the-scenes footage, live footage, and a trading card. The normal edition (C) will just come with a trading card, of which there are five possible to collect.
Also of note is that “WHY” will now be released on March 9th, which is a change from March 2nd, though no reason was given.
Check out the covers and tracklists below!

Fans gushed, “It’s the best, a completely new image to 4minute!”. Out of the five members, however, leader Nam Jihyun garnered the most praise with her new hairstyle. Dyed orange, her hair is wrapped high above her head, which made it look like a carrot.
A representative of Cube Entertainment revealed, “In order to achieve her carrot hair, Nam Jihyun had to spend three hours with her stylist.”
Fans commented, “It looks like soft ice cream,” “She looks like a rabbit and her hair is a carrot!,” and “Crunchy crunchy carrot Jihyun.”
