Seven thousand K-Pop fans filled a Yangon stadium on Saturday night to watch five-piece girlband 4Minute, according to South Korean media.

Osen reported that that the group received an “extraordinary welcome” from locals, with hundreds of fans mobbing the women when they arrived at the airport on Friday.

During a sugary sweet performance at the Myanmar Event Park, Jihyun, Jiyoon, Hyuna, Gayoon and Sohyun showed a lot of love in return, donning shirts emblazoned with the event slogan, ‘4Minute Fan Bash In Myanmar’.

Hyuna ended the show by telling the crowd she needed to take a photo so she could remember their faces, according to fans who posted elated messages to Twitter.

The group rounded up their trip with tours of Bogyoke Market and Shwedagon Pagoda, where they tried out local dress, sort of, on Sunday.

They flew out in the evening. Come back soon – and thanks for all the selfies.
