  1. OMG Eunjung please don't blame yoruself haha, these things happen...its so unfortunate though, everytime they go overseas they get mugged/things stolen etc. This happened a while back with another KPOP girlgroup member too (forgot who)...

    Or its probably an angry fan pissed off @ the new 9 member formation lol...

    Btw does anyone else think the 3rd and last picture which contained new members, some of them look like KARA's Nicole or SeungyeON? The 3rd pic with the red hair girl looked like Nicole, so does the one wearing that black hat beside her. The bottom right picture with the longer red hair girl looks like Seungyeon lol..

    Cant wait for this release on GOMTV...so happy that its not YT exclusive since YT has horrible quality.

  2. I almost completely agree with AKP's article. I am surprised this "skill" still exists in their writers as being a news "outlet", they tend to engage in more neutral articles rather than siding with arguments.

    Even now, I'm quite utterly shocked that this change wasn't a joke, and the real intention was indeed to "fix" their so called "lazy, prideful" members. Not only is that true only on an extremely subjective level, its also an over-generalization. The CEO is probably basing his judgement on maybe only 1-2 occurences in the past that had members ending up that way, and I believe its really unfair that T-ara are being punished because he couldn't throw this on anyone else aside from them...

    Also, his perspective on improvements isn't right too. I won't really say its completely wrong, but he is definitely ignoring the biggest issue. If he wants to fix, do it right -- maybe investing more on member training (such as how JYP trains miss A personally on these interpersonal and other minor skills as celebrities), and proper line distribution so members will get to shine equally on stage.

    His idea of continuously expanding the group wtih new members may in fact hinder the current members' abilities even more, as Boram, Qri and Hwayoung are already being treated unfairly lyrics wise. For some reason I feel that this is one of the few things the CEO originally intended in his group reformation, to accuse Boram, Qri and Hwayoung for not trying hard enough to hone their vocal skills and have the new 2 members replace them. Not really sure, just felt that his explanation regarding T-ara's improvements, and his actions are inconsistent, and it seems to not completely agree with his original intentions.

    Also, its a really cheap move to "strike" during T-ara's first vacation since debut. The whole vacation seems to be more like a trap, an excuse for him to "fix" their laziness and pride lol.

  3. This guy doesn't understand the basic principles of life. When certain aspects of life gives you crap, you fix it to avoid further occurences in the future. He shouldn't even be considering removal of members as that's just evading the issue, not even attempting at fixing it.

    If he wants a successful T-ara, maybe he should be emphasizing fixes to the current members, such as investing in more training and more careful about minor issues he mentioned. Adding the 2 members may not even resolve these issues.

    Although I guess changes are made and there's nothing we can do about it. Hopefully the 2 new members are likeable, cause Im going to find myself in a difficult position to accept this new changes after having T-ara being this way for the past year and a half or so.

  4. This is the only news ever since I started liking K-pop which I couldn't accept. Member changes after 2 1/2 years of debut is just absurd, I mean thats just going to cause an outrage especially with the fans, as well as the kpop world. I really hope its just adding and not removing. Maybe davichi :D

    I do hope that April 6th is Korea's Aprils Fools Day or something, or that its just an attention grabber for their new album which KKS has sacrificed his life for

  5. Pre ordered, though I feltlike its a huge waste considering its just HD ver. of the MVs lol. Is this MV alot higher than those gomtv releases? Also will it include like bonuses? Like photobook, card, poster etc.?

    O nvm, I just saw on yesasia which included details, for anyone interested. Plus I also just noticed that this is the JAP ver. of the unreleased crycry MV lol

  6. For me personally:

    Jiyeon - I think she is a very safe member. She may have a lot of activities, but she is undoubtedly the face of T-ara.

    Hyomin - I think she is also safe. She's always been loved in T-ara and don't see her leaving

    Soyeon - Also, I think she is safe. Soyeon is the voice of the group!

    Eunjung - I, am unsure. She's had an injury of late and CCM seems to be pushing her back in performances.. CCM will only be going for the healthy members, and CCM is evil enough to boot her for it.

    Qri - My bias, not too safe. She's one of the least appreciated members of the group, and she's also the second oldest. However, CCM seems to be really pushing her in the last few promotions, plus she is really improving. Also one of their best Japanese speakers!

    Boram - I feel she is the least safe. She's already voiced her opinions on her health and everything, I feel like CCM could be using this to get rid of her.

    Hwayoung - I'm really not sure. While she's the newest member, she does seem to be a great rapper, and has great abilities. However, CCM has never really used her. She's got next to no lines in most songs, and CCM always seems to favour Hyomin and Eunjung for rapping.

    You're right, but boram's real issue is that she's older. I mean she's near 30, thats a bit too old for this kind of girl group. But I think eunjung, soyeon, jiyeon and hyomin are almost definitely safe due to their importance in the group activities especially singing parts, but then again, vocalists/rappers can easily be replaced. Hwayoung is quite unsafe as well due to the fact that she hasn't yet properly toned her vocal abilities, she only gets to sing those weird recycled lines in their songs that seem to not even fit into the overall song. her dancing is considerably good though, and moderate rapping skills and young age may save her but who knows. KKS seems to be an irrational thinker, since his plans to increase group productitivty can be seen and predicted to be counterproductive even before implementation. But yah, only thing is the bear with it and wait for Apr 7, and hopefully this is either a prank, an ambition, or they just add and not replace.

  7. SO I suggested this earlier in the suggestions forums, and decided to take the initiative to start it.

    The ONE big thing missing in an int'l fansite is a place to ask general/casual questions regarding the group.

    I don't think this goes against the rules in any way, so hopefully this would be used as the place to ask general/casual questions about T-Ara.

    My questions are:

    Not sure if asked before, but how is the roommate system setup now that they have 7 members/ Is it the same from hello baby? Or do they have a new dorm? Since they don't talk or reveal much about these on variety shows so I don't think many fans, especially newer ones would know.

    Also do they have any funny sleeping habits? I remember watching somewhere about how someone from the group sleeps with eyes open or something, but can't really remember clearly who and where I saw it lol

  8. We're continuing improvements to the forum over time, but a lot of us are busy with life. Some of us with work, school, friends and a combination of them all. We have something cooking right now so we'll take your suggestion into consideration for the future!

    Thanks for the reply. yah thats completely understandable, I understand that the staff wouldn't be able to administer the board the whole time, but thanks for considering my suggestion. I can guarantee that thread/subforum will be filled with questions. There are too many things we want to know about t-ara that we can't know without that feature. :P

  9. *Nod head*

    Has he forgotten Jiyeon and Hyomin collapsed from exhaustion and were rushed to the hospital a couple times?Eunjung injured her knee and unable to shoot her drama nor performing Lovey Dovey on stage?I strongly believe he does not want the main vocalist to suffer from that too,does he?On second thought,maybe he will.Because what's on his mind is just MONEY and trust me,with his nutty mind,the nightmares might happen.

    "....disciplined them..." HELLO!!!!You're the one who needs to be disciplined!!These girls have worked their butt off for 3 years non-stop and you just giving them a break which is barely a week and you call them lazy??Wow,if I'm one of the members,I'll be hurt so bad by the mark he just said for all the hard works I did.Is this how he treat the girls?Job well done,Mr Kim....

    So,the new members will be performing on stage this June with their seniors who have worked for 3 years while they just debuting for 3 months.Urm,this just sounds crazy.What's more,the new members have to learn all the lyrics and choreography in a short period of time.What the H??

    To be honest,I have a feeling that apart from Soyeon and Hyomin who are main and lead vocalist respectively,the other are quite in danger.Maybe he can kick Jiyeon and Eunjung because KKS think they too "busy" with the acting.Or maybe the other 3..well,you know why...But,please don't add another members who will become another lead singer.Even when Soyeon is the main vocalist,I don't think she deserve enough attention like the Big 3.However,he is the CEO and anything can happen.

    Sorry for quoting such a big post but stupid keyboard won't let me delete.

    You may be right in regards to the vocalists being safe, but vocalists can easily be replaced. I think what matters most is age now. boram, qri and soyeon may or may not be in danger. Since boram and qri are nearing 30 as we speak, KKS might be an ass and decide to sack them. I really wish they won't though because it was weird for me at first to accept hwayoung in, but got used to it. Now KKS is planning another change that may remove existing members? Have to agree with everyone else, this is plain outrageous.

  10. Hi ive noticed that this forums doesn't really have a place to ask general and/or casual questions about T-ara. By general/casual questions I mean questions like whats the roommate order right now, have they moved to new dorms etc.?

    As a new fan of T-ara, I have alot of unanswered questions that can't really be answered by just PMing random members. Is it possible to have like a big "T-ara questions thread" or something similar in the general section or something?

    Also, I usually see pics of them in articles and stuff that I've never seen before, but there isn't a place to ask about that either. So, Is it possible to create a subforum in the photos section for requests + questions about photos?

    Thanks

  11. OMG it would suck so much if they replace member....the addition is OK but I would prefer not changing at all.....

    Wow and at first I had hopes that it was just addition of subgroups

    Also I think that the CEO has the wrong mindset for bringing a stronger feel to the group or whatever he claims he is trying to implement, because T-ara has been existent for about 2 and a half years, and we've all grew accustomed to the grouping and members. I'm sure most of the fans would be pretty unsatisfied and unpleased if they do plan to replace or remove members.
