    [13.04.04] T-ara's 4-member unit to debut with "Rural Life" in early May


    7-member girl group T-ara will promote as a unit.

    T-ara will debut a unit consisting of Eunjung, Hyomin, Jiyeon and Areum and they recently finished recording their song and are now preparing for their activities. They are trying to debut as early as the end of this month with "Rural Life".

    T-ara debuted in 2009 with "Lies" and on their Japanese single "Bunny Style!" which they recently released in Japan, they first tried units. The units were Soyeon-Areum, Boram-Qri and Hyomin-Jiyeon-Eunjung. The songs were all included as bonus tracks for various singles. This will be T-ara's first time doing a formal unit activity.

    What is T-ara's reason for doing a unit? The reason for T-ara to do the unit's activity is actually because since Hwayoung withdrew from the group last year, many fans were torn by the news at T-ara's height of popularity. T-ara will form this unit to try and mend the hearts of millions of fans again. Unit groups have been popular lately with Sistar19, 2YOON, ZE:A5, Infinite-H, and various other groups.

    The song "Rural Life" is produced by the hitmaker Double Sidekick T-ara will appeal to several generations, both young and old, and both men and women with their new unit song. T-ara plan to create a national dance similar to the "Roly-Poly" craze that they did with two years ago.

    Well, that's pretty good, considered what just happened a few months (and that the girls are still receiving backlash from that time). Let's hope (and pray) 2013 will be a brand new start for T-ara!

    [12.12.21] T-ara to hold large-scale Japanese fan meetings ahead of Japanese arena tour





    Girl group T-ara will hold their first large-scale fan meeting in Japan!
    According to their agency Core Contents Media on the 21st, T-ara will meet with Japanese fans early next year in an arena tour reaching 10,000~20,000 people each show.
    In June, T-ara toured in Nagoya, Fukuoka, Sendai and Sapporo. They successfully sold out a 20,000 seat two-day concert on a weekday at the Japan Budokan arena. They were one of the first Korean groups to perform at the legendary Budokan arena in Tokyo.
    Ahead of the arena tour, T-ara will hold large-scale fan meeting from December 24th to 28th in Tokyo and Osaka. They will perform hit songs and be able to communicate with their Japanese fans in a variety of ways.
    T-ara have a busy end of the year because after their fan meetings in Japan, T-ara will head directly back to Korea for the end of the year music programs in Korea.

    Honestly I don't think it's ccm's fault this time, they probably didn't foresee this coming...but I'm really sick and tired of netizens bashing t-ara for everything xxxxing thing, pardon my language. I hate having to see hate comments about t-ara all the time...
    Note: I can't stand how some fans keep on saying that they 'don't know how t-ara will recover from all this'. Honestly. As long as we support them, what's there to fear? Don't you guys have faith in our girls? Cos I definitely do.

    I disagree with the opinion that this is CCM/KKS's fault. As much as I dislike T-ara's management at times, I don't place blame on them for every little thing the netizens complain about.
    If the netizens were silent, and T-ara made a ton of money from this, I doubt most people would be objecting to CCM choosing this endorsement. This pachinko news was actually spread on Twitter more than a month ago, and no one said anything negative. So netizens now influence our opinion of right and wrong? So CCM should plan every move around what may potentially be criticized by netizens? Sounds like that's giving them more power, not a great idea to me.
    I know very well the bad that can come from gambling and how it's viewed in Korea, yet I have no problem with this endorsement whatsoever. I don't think pachinko is the greatest evil on earth. I literally laughed when I saw netizens were actually trying to create an issue out of this.
    Who cares what the netizens say? It's a bunch of losers competing for the most 'liked' comment. A Queen's on Twitter is even reporting the majority of Korean news is siding against the netizens on this issue. T-ara is making public appearances, has a Presidential endorsement, so maybe this isn't worth getting excited about.

    [12.11.13] T-ara's sleepiness on the plane attracts attention





    After promoting "SEXY LOVE" in Korea, T-ara has promotional schedules for their single album "SEXY LOVE" in Japan being released on the 14th. Pictures of them exhausted and sleeping have become a hot topic.
    On the 9th, T-ara traveled from Korea to Japan to begin their "SEXY LOVE" promotions in Japan.
    T-ara will tour various Japanese regions including Tokyo, Sendai, Fukuoka and Nagoya. They have a total of 12 mini-live events and plan to greet 3,000 to 10,000 fans with each day. They also have a busy schedule for Japanese broadcasts and media interviews.
    A photo released by their agency that was taken by their manager in the plane has caught attention. The T-ara members are all asleep on the plane ride.
    T-ara members have a busy schedule, so they all fell asleep on the way to Japan, but as expected, the leader Soyeon was awake checking the schedules and keeping the group on task. Eunjung's sleeping pictures have attracted attention before since she can fall asleep anywhere, and she's known as the idol who sleeps whenever and wherever.
    T-ara will return to Korea on the 19th.

    netizens never know anything about T-ara but kept boasting as if they know more about T-ara than to those who had known T-ara for a long time. cha eun taek really knows T-ara well since they were trainees. I have often seen him support T-ara after that scandal and how he defends eunjung many times after she was kicked out from 5F. he didn't care with netizens/T-haters which maybe hate him as well. i was amazed by his courage and honesty.
    aahhh.... he should become T-ara CEO instead KKS lol, he treats and understand them so well.
    poor eunjung, i'm scared with the last lines, i hope she will be fine without doing "stupid things" (you know what i mean) ;____;

    xserenax reacted to xbot in [12.10.19] "T-ara's Confession" members crying.. Will Hwayoung's exit be mentioned?   
    Honestly, by the preview I think this will only be a video journal/Behind the Scene of their Int'l fanmeets..
    But You know this just reminds me about what Kim C said in a talk show I saw in KBS World this week (Do Dream? forgot the title), anyway they end up talking about celebrities and scandals, I forgot the whole line but the the gist was ~that sometimes its just better to keep silent & ignore the scandals. People will say & think what they want and often giving explanations will only make the scandals bigger. But celebrity scandals do fade away by time. The most important thing its to push through & prove yourself to the public through your actions and work.
    And I think T-ara has done this.. Even a 'delusional' diehard fan like myself was suprised that T-ara had the guts to have a comeback on September but they did their own thing and just look at the results in the Gaon Chart for September 2012:
    Gaon Chart National Digital Singles Ranking: Sexy Love is #3
    Gaon Chart National Physical Albums Ranking: Mirage is #5
    Online Downloads For The Month : Sexy Love #5
    Online Chart – Streams : Sexy Love #5

    Ok its not perfect, but basically T-ara was the most succesful girl band in September despite the haters and that they were competing with the likes of Psy, FT Island, G-Dragon & TVXQ.. and if we add in the international fan meets, photobook sales, Japan promos? They did much better that most idol groups with or without the shadow of a scandal above their heads.
    Let the Antis fool themselves in thinking that everyone hates T-ara.. but the fact is obviously some one is still buying T-ara products. (I'm eagerly waiting for my preorder of 'The Best of T-ara Photobook+Album+DVD combo from Yesasia (thanks diadem forum for that link)

    After appearing at a press conference for the drama "Five Fingers", Eunjung was suddenly removed from the cast.

    xserenax reacted to Regius in [12.09.04] Core Contents Media clarifies "Little T-ara" performance announcement   
    Negative comments, yeah. This just shows how unreasonable 'netizens' are. Move on! All of the girls released statements giving rest to the whole bullying/diva issues. Regardless of the girls actual feelings in the matter, it is irrelevant now. Its like a court case where the primary parties settled, but onlookers wanted to proceed, in short what is the point?
    The continued 'attacks' has proven that it is not the ostracizing per se (now it looks like it was flimsy excuse by those who instigated and fanned the issue disproportionately). They (whoever they are) simply wanted to bring down T-ara. It's just pathetic.
    As to the implications of having children perform on stage, frankly I had similar thoughts. But one question runs through my mind: "Is it worth for T-ara to 'use' children?" From a moral/professional/business standpoint, NO. It'll erode their image and it won't be something they could recover from than some random (and false) accusation.
    To all Queen's and T-ara sympathizers: keep those haters/negative comments away from your minds. They are just trying to destroy T-ara - they didn't succeed back during the height of the controversies, they won't succeed now. The best way to plunge "critics" into the pit of irrelevancy is to forget them -- just think of this way: it is the last howls of a dying beast.
    As for T-ara, I'm looking forward to their "debut" (comeback), not 'simply' because of seeing Sexy Love and robot dance live, but see firsthand how the girls has overcome this hurdle.
    T-ara fighting!

    But regardless of who went to the site, it still shows that there are people interested in them. Love and Hate is better than no attention because that's when we'll see less of them. Even when the haters come by, they are exposed to the song and it brings along this type of publicity. I think they are ridiculous but they are helping to create more exposure for T-ara. In America, there is a saying, "There is no such thing as bad publicity." ,and I am truly hoping that this whole incident will fade like all things as we focus more on the work the girls produce. Better yet, this has brought on more new fans to help them reach an even higher status in Korea and internationally. The number of haters will fade as it started from baseless rumors anyway, there will still always be haters but the numbers will dwindle and in turn, the exposure has created more awareness about them and their music.
