T-ARA releases two versions of their new music video ‘Hide and Seek’

T-ara give their fans an early Christmas gift with their new music video ‘Hide and Seek’. The girl group will be released its special winter single, ‘Hide and Seek’ from their 8th repackaged mini album.

This song features an acoustic guitar and is a medium tempo ballad. This song compares love to the game of hide and seek and its soulful melody is perfect for the season. The MV, on the other hand, was released in two versions: the official music video and the winter version. The two are basically the same except that the winter version was recorded in a pale effect to add more drama to the song.

A few days before the MV release, they released a Christmas card-like photo that showed the 6 members wearing cute Christmas costumes. On Christmas eve, the six girls plan to hold a charity event with their fans which will take place from 1PM to 7PM at a cafe in Nonhyundong, Seoul. It will be hosted by live video streaming platform Ustream Korea.
