Korean female idols 4minute are gearing up to make their comeback to the local music scene next month, according to their agency Cube Entertainment on Friday.

"The girls recently finished shooting the music video for their title track and they have completed the new album," a PR official from Cube told 10Asia over the phone. "They are practicing for their comeback performance which will be around early April."

4minute splashed into the local music scene with their debut single "Hot Issue" in 2009. They have enjoyed success in several Asian countries including Taiwan and the Philippines with their mini-album "For Muzik."

They were the first K-pop girl group to branch out into the Japanese market in early May last year, producing three Japanese singles "Muzik," "I My Me Mine" and "First." The group's first full-length album "DIAMOND" was released in early December.

The girls have received the "K-Pop New Artists Award" at the Billboard Japan Music Awards in February and have been promoting their latest Japanese single "WHY."
