Acute gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining...it can be caused by a multitude of different things, but it's usually associated with taking too many NSAIDS (anti-inflammatory drugs like Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Naproxen). This is more than likely why Boram developed gastritis; if she's having to take medicine like Tylenol or Ibuprofen every day, gastritis can develop. Another malady to watch out for is liver failure. This news is saddening on so many levels...for some reason I feel like the stage is being set for Boram to leave the group after reading this. I'm sad for one because this is T-ara's FIRST MAJOR TOUR EVER, and Boram is not going to be able to join the girls on their first tour date; it's possible she may miss the tour entirely. That sucks, as even if the girls are overworked I'm sure that on some level they recognize that this is what they've been working for, and Boram has played a major part in the group's Japanese promotions so her absense will be missed. She deserved to be there standing alongside the other six when they took their bow on the first night. Going back to the original point I made, I just fear that this may be used as a way to gently "push" Boram out of the group in the coming months. In a way it's the perfect crime...the foundation is laid by the announcement that she is having to be pulled from the group's promotions due to gastitis, leading to a public discussion on her health (which, let's face it, has been pretty poor since she joined T-ara); a few months later, Boram exits the group, citing that her health is her first priority and that she wishes to recuperate. The only problem is that KKS has become such a nasty monster that we could never be sure if that was truly the reason she exited the group...if it is true, then by all means, I applaud her on taking her life into her own hands and making a decision that will benefit her for years to come, but if this is all some elaborate ruse to push her out of the group while simultaneously absolving CCM/KKS of any guilt then I hope it comes back to bite the idiot in the ass, so hard. And I don't want to think like this, at all...I really don't. I want to think that they're being compassionate to her and they understand that this is truly out of her hands, but I just have a feeling that nothing good will come of this. Praying for you, Rambo. You're my bias in the group, and I'm so sorry that you won't get your time to shine on tour like you deserve. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

I am so sick of hearing about this girl...the more I hear about her the less legitimate the whole thing sounds. So, she's 14, she didn't even want to pursue a career in the idol industry, and at this point we really have no clue if she can sing or act because she was scouted by KKS on the street, no less. She can dance, but T-ara's choreography has never been known to be extremely challenging, and a good dancer is only going to make T-ara's issues with fatigue during their live performances MORE noticeable, so what's her purpose? I'll tell you: she's a visual, plain and simple, and it pisses me off. Her age isn't what's holding her back from debuting sooner than December...it's that there was plenty of work to be done before she could even set foot on a stage as I'm guessing she probably has no natural talent whatsoever. Furthermore, T-ara doesn't need visuals, there are plenty of beautiful girls in the group, all of which could be pegged as visuals depending on the territory you're in or who you're talking to. If T-ara needed anything it was a strong voice to help build a bridge between Soyeon's lovely but understated vocals or Eunjung's powerful but at times uncontrolled singing. THAT'S what we needed, not more dead weight for the girls to contend with. Dani will have lost her usefulness by the time she debuts as I've noticed a lot of people are sick of hearing about her, and it's only been two weeks since we found out about her. Furthermore, T-ara never NEEDED new members to achieve a total overhaul...KKS could have achieved a similar result by putting the girls on hiatus for several months to a year to work on their vocals and dancing abilities. He's going about this all the wrong way, and he's killing T-ara's momentum in the process. Hopefully the other new member will be what Dani is proving NOT to be...a talented, hard worker who helps bring the girls of T-ara to a new level. But right now I don't see it for Dani. At all. Hwayoung had to bust her ass to get in good with netizens, and she made sure it was known within a year's time of her debuting that she was a multi-faceted performer...excellent rapper, decent dancer, fair vocalist, surprisingly talented songwriter. She may have brought nothing new to the group, but she was a sound addition in that she is talented and blended well with the group. Dani better gear up and be ready, because I see her having it even worse than Hwa did when she debuted.

Um. So basically he's saying that a child he found on the street has the vocal and charismatic ability to land herself into one of the current most popular girl groups in the business. He's saying T-ara's 5+ years of work is worth one pervy glance from an old man to a girl just walking along the sidewalk. She didn't audition. She didn't train. She didn't pursue a career in singing or entertaining. She was seen on the streets at 12 years old and approached by a man with tons of money who promised her fame and riches. And we're supposed to respect her as a valuable member of T-ara? This is a joke and I'm not having it.

If he had cast her on the street, I think KKS should put more effort in refining her and make her debut a little later with other trainees or as a soloist. If she really is such a nice find, KKS shouldn't push her debut, especially not with a group that's already successful. It's just a downfall for both Dani and T-ara imo. And no matter how many hours of training is done beforehand, having only less than a year of training before putting in a top notch group is stupid as hell. But i guess he lost his "Midas touch" because of other suppose 'failures' So he's just playing it safe and putting her in an already successful group.

Ladies and Gentlement...! Bring you guys a good news. YES...!!! <<T-ARA>> is coming to Malaysia this year...!!! Date, Time, and Location will be kept "myterious" from you guys first. (: Stay tuned!!!!! Organize by:Jazzy Group of Companies

Isn't it unusual to scout someone from the STREET to an already established girl group? That seeing a child on the street made KKS think "HMM THIS GIRL IS WHAT T-ARA IS MISSING." When you think about this, really think about it, it should dawn on everyone that Dani was recruited for nothing else except her age. If she had been a talented youtube cover singer, a model, a child actress, anything at all it would have at least been excusable. One could at least have speculated that KKS was putting thought into how he manages his top girl group. "Hey maybe this little girl shows great promise, maybe she's passionate about singing, maybe she's a good dancer, maybe her english speaking skills will take T-ara to the next level." But no. Knowing she was cast from the street at 12 years old and thrown into a 3 year old girl group just makes it obvious there was no thinking involved. KKS literally took to the streets and picked up a random little girl, to show T-ara that he's their slave master and rub in in their face that he makes them. That their talents mean nothing. That they are his pawns and easily replaceable. He's despicable.

OMG why did you posted this video!!! I will try my best not to watch this because I really want to unpack mine and be surprised!!! Need surprises right now!!! I won't watch this!!! NO NO NO NO !!!!! HAVE TO WAIT FOR MINE NOW !!! BTW, i ordered only Diamond version for now. Will order the 2 others one very soon.

First, I was touched when Jiyeon saw her dad at the fan signing event, and now I'm even more moved because Boram is sick! Free T-ara! T.T

hahaha walking around eating icecream? so much for rejecting such an amount of money for "learning choreography" ... i guess she's learning by walking around.

[12.06.06] T-ara's Boram absent from new album promotions, discovered to have acute gastritis T-ara's Boram was revealed to have acute gastritis and was admitted to the hospital. According to Nikan Sports, T-ara left Korea on the 5th to Tokyo for their new album promotions. Before moving to the Japan, Boram was inspected at the hospital and found out that she has acute gastritis and thus had to stay behind for promotions. Core Contents Media said to MyDaily over a telephone interview today, "Boram will not be attending schedules with the T-ara members until the 11th or when her situation becomes better. There are still not solid results on the hospitalization test results, but we will keep a close eye on her health." Meanwhile, T-ara will perform in six cities in Japan on a 11-date concert tour beginning with Nagoya. They hope to reach an audience of over 40,000. *** Source: http://news.nate.com.../20120606n03891 / http://news.nate.com/view/20120606n04921 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

This is ridiculous ! How could he just hire her just like that? Does he even know that T-ara is not just an ordinary girl group in korea and in asia. We are talking about T-ara here---- T-ARA! And he just wants to add an undefined jewel LOL! This is totally unfair to T-ara, they trained their butts out just to be on top and Dani just walked on street and wholaaaa she is now part of T-ara. Bravo KKS!!!! I expected a little about this girl but how could she sing and dance in front of the crowd and face her detractors to prove herself if she is a totally newbie? Feel sorry for her! I put the blame on KKS. So, what is their concept for their next album after she joined the group? Since KKS keeps uttering how innocent she is, maybe their concept is cute, pure and catchy just like the theme in the song "Apple is A" but this time it would be "Banana is B".

I have enough with "the height of 167cm" which repeated over and over. c'mon if height is that important she could be model instead of idol. KKS, queen's will prove that you are wrong with your 30 years of experiences of sh*t

hello MR. pedo !! okay i know i said i'll support her but WHAT!! i was hoping she'll be talented. she doesn't even want to be a singer from the start. she's not trained! how about all those trainees who work 24\7 for years and only 25% of them get the chance to debut . and this kid she to enter in a popular group like t-ara just like that without any effort and experiance???!!! WTH KKS !! t-ara's soyeon, hyomin, eunjung, jiyeon, boram and even Qri they were all trained for atleast 3+ years!! omg this is so stupid and unfair for T-ara.

they look a bit stress...maybe bcoz language problem...But T-ara do a great job...

M-Queens here t-ara finally come to malaysia feeling excited now, but, on the other hand, im afraid of this is just only a rumour at the end the higher hope u have, the higher disappointment u will face if the news is true, i would like to buy front seat

Wah! It's just next door! Too bad not Singapore... So jelly right now. How I wish T-ara could come to Singapore after going to Malaysia! Heeheehee

Rambo unnie! Get well soon! I hope she didn't fall ill because of something else much bigger and serious. *Stupid brain, stop think such things!* And reading some of your comments makes me feel panic. What if that sorry excuse for a human KKS really uses her poor health as an excuse to slowly kick her out of T-ara?! That idiot better not do that! Boram, get well soon. FIGHTING!

Y NOT SINGAPOREEEEE (((((( WHEN WILL THEY COME

let's just hope she recovers soon instead of speculating the causes =) its good to know that she should be able to get some rest in the meanwhile

Boram, please be okay. You're making me into a cry baby KKS you better start treating your groups right. Clearly you've got the wrong definition of "lazy and full of themselves" cuz from what i'm seeing and hearing, no member of t-ara is like that. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

aw! Rambo! T.T gosh i think that was a serious disease! i believe that it is caused by a intaking too much drugs, stress, and skipping meals that can result to ulcer... argh! Rambo please get well soon! KKS please consider their health!!! damn! I'm also worrying to their leader... Soyeon stay strong too!

TTL is awesome!! I love this version where only had the girls voice..but why there's no Eunjung and Hyomin high note in the end?? tbh i was a little disappointed because i was anticipating it so much since it's been a while Eunjung and Hyomin had their high note part (although this is remake song) but the other songs sound great too..Keep Out and T-aratic Magic Music are awesome..

Haha (: She's cute ^___^~ Ahhh.. Normal girl.. Enjoy ur life before u become popular ass hell and get captured by the new fans (: still cant believe she's my age.. and she's soooo tall O___O

SHe looks cute! and I pity her. Cos of her age and CCM's decision to include her in T-ARA already has a lot of negative comments going towards her. I hope she'll be fine and somehow be successful!

She'll only join T-ara in December (if she does..) and yet we already know what she's doing day by day... How long will it last ? December is very, very FAR away from now, I'm wondering if CCM will continue like this all this time. Honnestly, I don't understand the goal of CCM, do they want us to be passionate about Dani ? She's nothing yet, not even a member of T-ara, just a young child !! Personnaly, I don't "hate" her, but I dont care at all about her either, I don't want to hear about her whereabouts or anything, this is killing me !!

Now that you've mentioned it, she somehow does look like krystal, It took a lot of time wondering why does she look familiar to me. ^^ Anyway, don't be so hard on this girl guys, whether we like it or not, she's gonna be the 9th member of t-ara. It's also hard for me to accept the changes in T-ara when we all loved them as 7-ara but there's nothing much we can do about it, really. If there's anyone to blame that would be KKS for making such a ridiculous member changes. * I don't hate Dani. I just hate the fact that KKS would put a 14 year old girl in a top girl group where she might get bashed for joining them when T-ara is receiving lot of love from their fans and is doing well as 7-ara. *

How can a 14-year-old girl can be a sexy look member of our T-ara

she maybe tall but whenever i look at her, she appears petite to me. and she's too skinny, especially her legs.. i think she needs to develop more as a woman before joining t-ara.. keke if i'm not aware that she lived in US, i would think that she's from southeast, she's kinda tan.

I thought so too, she is okay looking but not really worth 200 million won or whatever?? and anyway how will a cosmetic company sell anything with an unkown face?? usually they make cf's with famous people not with an unkown CHILD.

I like SNSD too but is it really necessary to say that she's Girls' Generation Yuri look-alike?(is it just me or she don't resembles Yuri?).Publicity much,huh CCM?? Sigh,I was really hoping the 14 year-old addition news was a joke but it seems that my nightmare has come true.T-ara's schedules are really harsh,tight,murderous and there are almost no gap in between.I'm not looking down on her but I doubt she manage to "survive" without collapsing twice or more during her time with the girls. Like Scatter-88mil said,I too can see the potential of Boram and Qri leaving the group - either by their own will or been forced by that scumbag.IF what KKS claimed that these two girls are really good singers is true (which I doubt),Soyeon might leaves the group too. I'm starting to worry if T-ara might be a laughing stock from netizens for having a Mother-Daughter years gap a.k.a Auntie Boram and Auntie Qri.
