[13.03.27] T-ara's Eunjung-Hyomin-Jiyeon-Areum to form a sub-unit and create national trend 7-member girl group T-ara will return in late April or early May as a sub-unit consisting of Eunjung, Jiyeon, Hyomin and Areum. The team's name is not yet decided, but they plan to takeover with a national dance trend. T-ara's agency Core Contents Media said on the 27th, "We are sorting out the details for a sub-unit for Eunjung, Jiyeon, Hyomin and Areum right now." T-ara will work with the new hitmaker, Double Sidekick. Double Sidekick has made several hit songs lately, including Davichi's "Turtle" most recently. This will be the first time T-ara works with this composer. Eunjung, Hyomin, Jiyeon and Areum will appear similar with their promotions with T-ara, contrary to what most usual sub-units do. Their agency said, "We want to take this chance to familiarize the public with them individually." T-ara plan to appear on stage with a dance similar to the Village People's "YMCA" dance which became popular in the late 1990's that is easy to follow. The song will have an easy and gentle melody and dance their agency hinted. T-ara hope to make the dance a national trend. Their agency joked, "The song will hopefully be the second coming of 'Gangnam Style'." The other members, Qri, Boram and Soyeon, will stick to individual activities. T-ara will reunite in the summer and plan to reach over 150,000 fans in a Japanese Arena Tour. Last year, T-ara held a six city tour in Japan including two sold out performances in Tokyo's Budokan Arena. *** Source: http://media.daum.net/entertain/enews/view?newsid=20130327095908739 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

As far as I know, Hyomin's scandal was about joining a certain group that involves themselves in drinking & $ex.. The only thing they showed as a proof was her email Id. About Soyeon, well that was a rumor. Can be true n may be just a rumor as well. Btw, what scandal of Jungiee are you referring to?? Feeding Ricecake or FF scandal, or both?? Are those even a scandal??

I'm sorry for breaking the mood, but actually I wasn't really happy when I first heard this news Even if EunJiMin are my most favorite members, I just..don't feel right Hell, T-ARA have just gone through all the dramatic chaos last year, and even the damage after-effect still exists until today. At times like this, I prefer them staying together and move as ONE group. The strong members' bond and good atmosphere in group are what they need the most to resist all the hatred and bashing now Besides, this... I feel really bad for Soyeon-Qri-Boram. I assumed that "individual activities" for the 3 of them which CCM stated is just a passing-by-formality-comments like usual. Heck, they are humans, if I was them I would be pissed off. Areum just joined, and got all these things that Qri-Boram-Soyeon could only dream about for almost 4 years. I understand Areum is amazing and that CCM want to promote her as hard as they could by putting her with the most popular members, but still...it's a bit unfair for Soyeon-Qri-Boram -__- Pardon me

You'd have always thought if there was to be another subunit or something along the lines of TTL, Soyeon would be included. Sounds like this new song could be like Roly Poly, which had a dance all ages could do and enjoy. The whole Gangnam Style/YMCA tidbit thing...lol. Welp, regardless of everything, just give me some good music.

I would love to have Soyeon in this sub group instead of Areum BUT I think this will be good way to push Areum out into the public more since she's not very well known. I'm excited!

i think it will be a lot better if it is just EunJiMin. they just giving Areum a special treatment because i know eunjung and hyomin can rap to. I hope it will be a big hit, i pray for it and no negative reactions from the K-netizens. T-ara Fighting!
