hope boram will join in this drama MV ^__^ Boram Hwaiting !!!!!!!!

2330 and I see a car used in the present day still - maybe I'll find an 18th century musket in a garbage dumpster then. Katanas? Couldn't they have gotten say, something like laser guns, nail guns like the ones from FEAR or somethin? Or maybe something like a lightsabre? The last time katanas were used for fighting was WW2 by the IJA's officers (and they were more used for beheading, stabbing and cutting civilians and POWs). Plus using katanas in say, close-quarters combat (especially indoors) is a tricky thing - there's a reason why soldiers use bayonets mounted on their rifles (and even that doesn't occur very often in today).

i wont give in i think that dani is to young and i dont like it

I like Dani a bit more now after reading this Allkpop comment. I think it's true because this person doesn't seem like a troll or someone who would lie about it.

MTE! She has a strong voice but I don't really like it that much. It's very deep. It also sounds like she struggles to hit the high notes. I prefer Soyeon's voice too. It's strong but sweet.

Me too Tbh, I don't like her voice...too...how should I say this...deep (?) voice..The worst part is that her talking voice reminds me of IU's So comparing with T-ara members? Even without being biased, I can honestly say Eunjung, Hyomin, Jiyeon and Boram (although Boram's lives is questionable) are better. If her role is to carry Soyeon's burden, I don't see why these 4 original members can't do it. Her dancing? Nothing special. Unnecessary addition

she can sing,,, but unstable, and i don't really like her voice tone,,, its kinda remind me of boram,,, a bit flat, not unique... not hating, just saying welcome areum, hope you can fit in t-ara and improved

8th & 9th have same resemblance still i will not give-in........ only support 7-tara

I think the difference here is that Hwayoung WANTED to be in the industry, she was scouted on an entertainment show she appeared on, so she already knew this was something she wanted to do. I also wouldn't necessarily say she's improved since debut as she's always been talented...she has just been given more opportunities to show HOW talented she is as of late, whereas when she debuted she was kind of pushed to the back or given lines like "I like-a like-a dis" that did nothing to showcase her abilities. But she absolutely KILLED her part in "Ma Boo," and that was enough for me to realize that there was something special about her. Hwayoung has always kind of possessed a natural spark that catches your eye, too...in performances like "Cry Cry," where she doesn't sing at all, I always found myself watching out for her because she exudes confidence and sexiness in that choreo. I'd argue that she did the best job with it out of all the girls... But I digress. Dani, on the other hand, is just too damn young to know what she wants, and if being an idol hadn't even crossed her mind before she was scouted then my hopes aren't too high for her regarding her capabilities. BoA, who was similarly scouted, trained for YEARS before she was allowed to finally debut, whereas Dani will make her debut in mere months. T-ara are quickly becoming Asian-wide superstars; the last thing they need is a weak link in the form of an adolescent girl who is just figuring out who she is, much less what she wants to do with the rest of her teenage/young adult life. This little girl just better realize that once she's in T-ara, she's in it. She better stick it out for the sake of the other eight girls and not screw it up for them. She needs to bust her ass and bring her A-game since this whole ordeal has brought so much stress on both the group and the fandom that I'm surprised T-ara hasn't stepped up and said something yet. She has a lot to prove and if she ends up being dead weight it'll be pointed out fast by people who will have no problem obliterating a young girl and calling her the filthiest names imaginable just because they can. No special accomodations better be made for her outside of what is legally required for minors in the industry; if the older members are suffering and busting their butts, she better be right alongside them doing the same. After this I don't want to hear about member additions, deletions, NOTHING for a good long while, if ever again. And God help me, if T-ara end up taking the After School route and do the ridiculous admission/graduation system, I'm out. Kahi's recent announcement that she would be leaving AS to pursue a solo career brings the number of original members in the group down to 2. Anybody that's followed AS can attest to the fact that they are nowhere NEAR the same group they used to be, either in concept or in sound. It's a ridiculous system, and it just won't work for T-ara because it was never part of the plan for them to begin with. Hell, it hasn't even really worked out all that well for AS, and fans KNEW it was part of their concept. But these changes that KKS insists on implementing don't feel organic and are hardly sound; they're just ridiculous gimmicks that are just hurting the credibility T-ara had finally gained in the industry. If I didn't know any better I'd venture to say that KKS is INTENTIONALLY trying to destroy T-ara, because nobody can be so stupid to believe that such drastic changes won't hurt the group, especially when they're at such a precarious point in their relatively young careers. Now is the time to be promoting STABILITY, not restructuring them to the point that the fans won't be able to recognize the group as a whole any longer. Better yet, instead of scaring the girls into submission, why don't you listen to them, KKS? Their cries for a break are legitimate and shouldn't be stifled; there's no reason to punish them for telling the truth, and if you want them to get through the dreaded "3 year curse" intact then I'd be doing my damnedest to keep them happy and satisfied, not pouring salt on their wounds.

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.

Seriously, this KKS decision really make me hurt and sick!! I cannot imagine what that CEO thinking. He try to destroy t-ara slowly. From the start we know that t-ara is not idol group like After School. I don't really know the issues and concept about about AS graduation concept. I'm thinking the members really shocked about this KKS concept. Yes, KKS really really has a random thought. After succesful Roly Poly era and officially fans club, why he must try new "tactics" to the game???? Seriously, I think most of t-ara news and public exposure is just a damn hoax. Well, when you look at t-ara news in website, mostly KKS statement is about money like t-ara get CF offered, hyomin shares a bunch of money to gangkiz and eunjung robbed. Beside that, you probably thinking twice to save your bunch of money in your idol (ASSETS) bag unless you're so stupid,and why you must made a voting to get the name, if you still use the old names (Queen's take 'em all). I don't know about entertainment news in South Korea, but sometimes to get the public attention, you must making a delight story. Don't forget about jiyeon-kim tahee look alike when she debut. I think KKS is such a dumb controversy-lover man. So about this member addition, this is my assumption : 1. KKS is a money scumbag and want to get public attention with the controversion. I think he not stupid at all. I really really hope he change his mind and cancel his decision about member addition. I think he want making new girl group with dani as a members. Well, he always do that. Don't forget about 5Dolls and Gangkiz. I think because of Dani height and face, he can get attention from public. This is like jiyeon pre debut when she join with Seeya and Davichi in Woman Generation. Seriously, when KKS not announcement about 'who 9th member', there are some rumors about Shanon. We know that Shanon has voice when this Dani, we just know she is tall and 'charismatic' girl in her puberty. Oh please KKS, why you not show about Dani skill, why you just show her photo and say about her appearence which more like Krystal than pre-debut Yuri. So this is my biggest hope : KKS will cancel his decision and debuting new girl group with Dani and Shanon as members or others CCM trainee. 2. KKS want to bully t-ara member. Well I get this from theprophetblog and he say this about 2 months ago. And now we get the jackpot. KKS introduce the public about new members which young from Jiyeon. This seems KKS bully Boram and Jiyeon. How can he simply added a 14 years old girl into a group when the current maknae in group is the main visual has many fans among other members. Beside that, why the addition members must have 167cm height and charismatic face??? Oh please KKS, again why you just show her appearence. 3. KKS has really really random thought. If you big fans of t-ara you must admit that. KKS want make t-ara become SNSD. Maybe he want reach Lee Soman level and he is a dumb desperate businessman in his 30's year of the experience of music industry. Well you can get this from news about Dani who look alike Yuri predebut not Krystal or Seungri lost sister. Seriously, I give up. I really hope KKS just make a big issue (trolling) to get the public attention for t-ara popularity.
