    September 21, 2008 · 3 Comments

    Wonder Girls released their new song titled “Nobody” 2 hours before!

    It was really interesting. It has some old school and new school mixed in it. Their new style is in fact really interesting! The gloves and their outfits shines the most! Their new dance is of course really nice.

    In the teaser, the song “Nobody” was slower, but the dance version was added in the new MV! Check it out!
