Woollim Entertainment reveals mysterious photos featuring INFINITE’s L, Sungyeol, and Sunggyu

Before the unveiling of the mysterious video teaser asking “What’s the next big thing?“, Woollim Entertainment has also released a few mysterious photos as well, leaving fans to wonder if there may be a connection between the new video teaser and the photos.

On the 24th, the agency posted a picture of INFINITE‘s Sunggyu with the comment, “October 24th, 2012 Wednesday. We’re back with the photo you waited for! The main character of the photo is Sunggyu!! Have a good day and look forward to tomorrow’s photo!”

This comes after the previous tweets the agency posted on the 22nd and 23rd featuring pictures of members L and Sungyeol.

They wrote with L’s picture, “October 22nd, 2012 Monday Spend an enjoyable afternoon with INFINITE’s L’s picture! Starting from today, for a week, look forward to the members’ pictures that will be revealed one by one ^ㅡ^“. 

With Sungyeol’s photo, they wrote, “October 23rd, 2012 Tuesday is Sungyeol’s photo! It got really cold after it rained yesterday ^^ Everyone, be careful of colds and look forward to tomorrow’s photo ^^”

What is intriguing is that each member is holding up a sign each with a different syllable. L’s says “Na” while Sungyeol’s says “Neung”, and Sunggyu’s reads “Dae”. So far, the letters mean nothing, but fans are looking forward to completing the phrase with all 7 members.

What do you think these letters could mean?

Who Wore it Better: Hyunseung vs. HyunA

Everyone’s favorite Troublemakers are dressed to match for this edition of Who Wore it Better!

On September 5, B2ST‘s Hyunseung wore Balmain’s black faberge printed new biker jeans (~$2,075 USD) for a performance.  He also wore the white version of a Balmain belt ($426 USD) featured recently in this column and a Chrome Hearts necklace (~$2,066 USD), with a white blazer by Korean brand Juun.J (I couldn’t find it for sale anywhere, but you can view the collection here).

In teaser photos for her newest solo project, “Ice Cream“, 4minute‘s HyunA wears the same pants in a different color, along with a version of this Balmain shirt ($1,100 USD) and suede, pointy-toe pumps, also by Balmain ($475 USD).
