Different styles, diverse backgrounds, united into one. Let’s take an intimate look at all 7 members of 4EVE together. Here are the journeys, the talents, and the quintessential training prior to their dream debut as the girl group.

The 7 girls of the new generation entered the floor with a concept ‘Girl Crush’, which boasts an image of girls who stay true to themselves with both outer and inner confidence, as well as courage to express their own feelings and perspectives, all of which distinctly through 7 looks and 7 characters. Now, shall we dive deeper into their story-rich paths to this very dream as a girl group?
Fai-Nattaya Buttura
Age 18, Chiang Mai -IG : callmebanananana
This girl with a cool vibe ‘Fai’ has a great passion for dancing and comes with various associated skills to boot; the gifts she has been harnessing in numerous competitions, while her favorite most familiar styles are hip hop and street dance. Although her mother has been motivating her into many activities involving instruments, singing, and dancing since her childhood, dancing has resonated with Fai the best. This is thanks to the almost immediate connection she felt with the activity and how ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ are non-existent in the dictionary of dancing, like going with the emotional flow. Apart from helping to better understand her own body, dancing is also an intriguing and challenging art in itself. As for musical aptitude, Fai started off by learning to play ukulele before turning to guitar and ultimately to bass. There was one nickname granted by Fai’s friends to her and that was ‘Gluay’ (Banana) because she always rehearsed with a banana hat on her head. In an interview with Fai, she shared her other dream to become a psychiatrist before applying to be 4EVE’s trainee, as she wanted to bring happiness and smiles to every patient’s life.
Fai entered 2 dancing competitions during her 5thand 7thgrade (in 2015) including the world stage of U.S. Hip Hop International Thailand and the audition of ‘4EVE Girl Group Star’, the latter of which was through her mother’s encouragement to apply in Chiang Mai on the last applicable day.
Did you know she’s also known for being a support teaser of the group’s junior member, while in her time off, she loves listening to music and hopping between cafes? The next step within the world of entertainment for her is writing her very own songs accompanied by her very own beats. Because of her age, she’s got to be the member of both ‘Chara Line’, which means a line for older members, and ‘ Maknae Line’, which comprises youngest members, within the group.
Punch-Tipanan Nilsiam
Age 16, Bangkok - IG : ppunnch
This endearing girl ‘Punch’ also has a passion for dancing, with her experience dating back to her cheerleading routine. Her mother used to encourage her to participate in a number of activities, hoping for her daughter to overcome shyness. In Punch’s 9thgrade, a label came into contact, inviting her to a training academy towards her artist debut in Korea, prompting her to develop dancing into a serious skill. Following a competition, people surrounding her shared how joyous she looked during her performance, judging from her eyes, which was why Punch decided to become a real dancer since then. The most familiar styles of hers include sexy and hip hop dances, while packing a ‘punch’ with rapping prowess as well. Her social media presence is especially immense in the app ‘Tik Tok’, with over 800k followers, while the majority of her content are dancing clips in her own style. This led to her receiving an honor to be Tik Tok representative of Thailand, a contest chance in Taiwan, and a People’s Choice Award, resulting in her recognition as a Queen of Tik Tok.
Punch’s dream is to be an artist becase of her wish to spread joy as do the artist she is inspired by, which is New Hope Club.
With the age of 16, Punch is in the group’s Maknae Line, and though her resting face may be fierce, she’s actually a wholesomely silly girl. Her usual pastimes include playing piano and reading about psychology, given her interest in human’s complex mind. Besides those are going on photo tours anywhere along the BTS Skytrain lines, and collecting souvenirs from overseas like display models and brooches. The next step within the world of entertainment for her is to be an beauty and lifestyle influencer.
Mind-Atitaya Tribudarak
Age 21, Chonburi - IG : .tiya
This lovely girl ‘Mind’ is a musical broadway actress, with an eccentric name given by friends ‘Ma-yod’. The name’s origin is from her name tag for the university’s welcoming ceremony, which was improperly designed in terms of Thai calligraphy and then instead read ‘Ma-yod’ instead of ‘Mind’. To this day, ‘Yod’ has become the shortened go-to name among her friends.
Mind has always been keen on taking part in several activities like volunteering as a dancer in her school’s performance since being on stage brings much happiness to her. She then had an opportunity to become a professional dancer in her 9thgrade and after 2 years of training, she even earned an award for ranking in the competition’s top 5 in the first year. Mind’s previous 2 stage performances with Muangthai Rachadalai Theatre are ‘Bunlang Make The Musical’ and ‘Four Reigns’ and another TV show ‘Game Rak Ao Kuen’.
Mind’s dream is to be an artist to boost people’s spirits as everyone needs it. She also share her obsession with dancing and performing as it clicks with her so deeply in the moment. The program 4EVE Girl Group Star she auditioned in did indeed grant her a chance to take another step to eventually debut in this girl group.
Her hobbies are sleeping, watching movies, listening to music, and basically enjoying peace and solitude. The next step within the world of entertainment for her is to be a musical as well as performance artist, while also looking to manage a resort with her family. In 4EVE, Mind represents a father and mother figure who’s there to provide guidance to younger members like the group’s big sister, as everybody calls her in a Chinese nickname ‘Che’.

Before joining the industry, Aheye joined started this singing career when she was 7 years old and got to compete in the program ‘We Kid’ when she was around 11–12 years old. Moreover, Aheye has auditioned with Korea’s giant label ‘YG Entertainment’, who invited her via a direct message during the casting process. She, of course passed the audition and proceeded to the video submission round, where selection is made by the president.

Being in the group’s Maknae Line (and the youngest member), Aheye’s characters are noted for her not-so-great ability to keep secrets as her suspicious behavoir is often apparent. Her free time is filled with listening to pop music and going out to exercise at Rot Fai Park with her family. Her favorite collections are merchs in the theme of her beloved Korean artist ‘Jisung’ from the band ‘NCT’, because he’s also a Maknae, youngest member like her. The next step within the world of entertainment for her is to dabble in writing music or taking up an instrument.

She has also been contacted by a label with an offer for her to join an Asian girl group, but has rejected that due to certain reasons.
As for Hannah’s personalities with her friends or close ones, she would be the one full of silly shenanigans and has reactions to any situations, with a goofy catchphrase like “Gru!” In her time off, she would take a stroll with music between her ears and collect various postcards of Lisa-Jennie from BLACKPINK as hobbies. Hannah has also adopted a nickname ‘Butsaba’ created by the group, as she saw Aheye as a character called ‘Klai Rung’ in a performance and adore it so much that she wanted a Thai name of her own.
