I'm not interested but - my mother always - my mother's style is better than me (smile). Before she bought this for me. Qri 1. Like The First Time.

[12.12.05] T-ara receive 10 billion won offer to do Southeast Asian tour same time as Japanese Arena Tour T-ara were offered 10 billion won to do a Southeast Asian tour. On the 5th, T-ara's agency said, "We received an offer of 10 billion won (~10 million USD) to do a project tour next year in Southeast Asian countries such as China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, etc." But T-ara plan to do a Japan Arena Tour at the same time as the offer as well as do domestic activities in Korea. T-ara's Japanese Arena Tour would be able to reach over 150,000 people. T-ara's agency said, "We will think hard about the offer and reveal if we will go through with the Southeast Asian tour in January." T-ara is the first Korean girl group to have a concert at the Budokan in Tokyo and with two sold out performances. They went on a six-city tour earlier this year as well as completed showcases in some Southeast Asia countries. *** source: http://news.nate.com/view/20121205n37692 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

Loophole: So WHO actually offered CCM about this 10 billion won offer, eh? WHO? Even if this isn't a publicity stunt (seeing the money amount, it's goes to show CCM's up with its typical antics and overexaggerated crap again - not even other agencies go on bragging about stuff like this), it all goes to show that the ones who made the offer don't realize or care that they're potentially putting an even larger pile of work on T-ara's shoulders. This tour can wait long after the one in Japan's finished. Not during or before it. That's just overkill. Sidenote - anyone with even a hint of geography would know that China and Taiwan are not SEA countries, nor are they even considered part of SEA itself. Fail of geography there. Mate, how are you sure this money is going to go to T-ara, or even a majority or fair share of it? Chances are CCM will probably take the bulk of this money and leave the scraps for the members (which will also have to be divided in between 8 members, assuming this tour takes place after Dani's in), considering T-ara doesn't decide where to promote or how much money is distributed between the two. If you're going to favor increasing their workload while putting more risk to their mental and physical health after all the hell they've gone through in the past months, then I suggest you take a strong reconsideration. Promoting overseas as a long-term substitute for promotions in Korea isn't going to cut everything as with the majority of Kpop idol groups, Korea's always the most important source of income, followed by Japan. T-ara ain't SNSD. The validity of CCM's claims aren't even reliable and known to be full of outright lies and contradictions too. Well, with CCM known to be the most notorious and incompetent (not to mention unreliable) agency in Kpop, you can't expect people in the Kpop community to give them an easy nod. From the Nam Gyuri incident in mid 2009, KKS's unwarranted opinion of KARA's lawsuit against DSP, T-ara being overworked with visits to the hospital, new member additions over unjustified and illogical reasons and now the scandal back in July, 5dolls' bullying scandal etc, I don't think it's difficult to wonder why people heavily dislike CCM and won't hesitate to drop crap on it.

Me: Ok.. Korea Queen's doesn't love them like last time anymore so what? They got International Queen's on their back. Combine other country Queen's together surely more than Korea's anti. Let them roll on other country! Me: "Plan" means not confirm.. So it could be Japan Tour before or after Asia tour. (though i got a feeling it might be before Asia Tour) Promoting in Korea = new comeback which also means the last member adds in. Which will be another sail in the sea of storm. Though I want them release new album soon but still with all this "discussed plan", even I myself who is just reading the article could imagine how tired it can be. Just imagine yourself working your dream job like there's no tomorrow. Always overtime and lack of sleep. So, on top of everything, their health comes first. Knowing CCM is a cheapskate, wherever country they go, Queen's give them some food and a lot of vitamin supplements!!! They NEED IT!!

CCM probably exaggerated a bit, but I would love an ASEAN tour haha. Since promoting in Korea is still a problem, I'd agree for them to make tours in Asia. Hope it won't tire them so much though.

WOW, our girls are daebak! :""> So happy for them. America wants T-ara too!! :""> Fighting ~

omg omg!!! i was expecting in that "etc" hope t-ara will go to philippines too!!! hahaha i'll definitely going to prepare!!! (hope not weekdays)

Uh oh, I sense another incoming possibility of incredible amount of overwork and stuff like that. I for one, would like them to stay with their plans as it is :l

I doubt is not true the offer, but the way CCM makes announcements about T-ara is so pathetic always put the ammount of money,it´s oblviously the thing KKS cares the most in his life. And then for some people is like CCM makes false statements just to make believe T-ara is popular when it is not necesary, T-ARA IS POPULAR BY ITSELF, but CCM is a xxxx, so unlucky the best girl group in Korea is in their hands. whatever, i hope this is confirmed soon next year and for the summer or spring,after promoting in Japan and Korea, not to kill the girls of overwork just becausse KKS/CCM want that money.

This ain't funny anymore. How unprofessional. More embarrassment for the k-entertainment. And those sponsors as well, just rotten. Where is the justice here? Apologies to all who read this post, if its quite vindictive: boycott the show, boycott the sponsors' products.

pretending back up dancer.... sigh, and akp go, woah, "big news, big news" publish it!

T-ara Soyeon, "After withdrawing from SNSD is the most hard time" A girl who enjoy standing in front of the mirror since she's small, went to an art high school. During her senior year she became a trainee in a famous entertainment agency .Everyday she practiced hard until she needs to change her t-shirt 2-3 times because of the sweat, that's how much she's chasing after her dream to became a star. But was her effort not enough? 6 months before she was going to debut with SNSD, she withdrew. After giving up on her dream she stayed at her house only. She said it is the hardest part of her life. The people who support her dream to became a singer, her grandma and uncle's health condition started to be bad. 1 year later, her Grandma and Uncle passed. Giving up her dream was really hard. "Until now the one year and a half time after I left SNSD was the hardest time of my life. Not only my family supported my dream to became a singer but my whole family, especially my grandma and uncle. But on that one year and a half time when I want to stop being a trainee, the both of them passed away. When the both of them passed away the thing that they say is 'become a singer.'" After seeing her grandma and uncle leave Soyeon is once more determined. Soyeon said, "After the funerals of my grandma and uncle, I dusted myself off and tried to find my determination to reach my dreams again. I said 'Okay, let's try this again one more time.'" Accidentally she saw an article that said Mnet Media is looking for one more member to complete their 5 member girl group. For Soyeon, she can't miss this chance. "I look for people that can connect me. In the end she searched for Mnet Media's address. She asked if she can meet the CEO , and they let me in. At that place I auditioned, and I was chosen." In 2009 Soyeon finally debuted with the girl group T-ara, and had the dream that she wants. But SNSD who have made their debut at that time, trainee juniors like SHINee and f(x) members now became a 'singer senior.'" "When I first debut it's really awkward (smiles). On my first broadcast, SHINee's Jonghyun and Taemin came to greet me. At that time I treated them just like the trainee days, using informal language to them. Thinking about it after I thought it was really weird and I also worried a lot. So after that we talk and decided to talk comfortably just like the trainee days." Soyeon said, "Actually withdrawing from SNSD makes me and SNSD members awkward with each other. But after debuting and promoting with T-ara, a lot of that problem has been resolved." "Now the time I'm with T-ara and the time I spend with SNSD in my trainee days are the same. The time I am with SNSD as a member was good but I don't regret becoming a T-ara member. T-ara is a junior group who wants to became like SNSD. When I'm with SNSD, I'm the oldest. Now I still contact the SNSD members and my parents are close with the SNSD members' parents. After overcoming her hardship Soyeon lately have been active in the variety program. The program is KBS 2TV variety program '100 Points Out of 100.' She has been the guest since January .Even though her name is "variety-dol,' Soyeon only look at her script to know who the guest is. On the recent broadcast the guest listened to a short part of the song and guess what the title is. Soyeon, who was born in 1987 guessed the song and knew immediately, the song is Kim Ji Ae's "Hateful Person", which was released in 1989. "Haha, I'm born in 1987. If I need, I will show my ID card. I heard from my parents that I'd always sit in front of the TV and hum along to songs. I have a lot of interest to the senior singers' songs so that's why I know the songs." "I might get scolded. I only look at the script to know who the guests are and I also don't follow the script. I think being natural came out the best." "On variety I'll be a fun friend, on stage I'll be T-ara's main vocal, on acting I'll be actress Park Soyeon and of course, I will work even harder." Soyeon's message to the juniors who wants to be a singer: "I've started to became a trainee 10 years ago. If I were to say one thing is, the person who really wants to do it can pursue this career. This is not only about if you can work hard, but you must really want it. By just relying on talent alone, during the trainee days you only think you need to passion and dream. But after your debut that work becomes your society. You can't sleep, you can't eat, and also you have no friends. The only thing you can do is perform on stage. If you're a crazy person who really wants to do it, then only please pursue this career." *** Source: Nate Translated by: ela @ Diadem
