Eunjung with blonde bob cut... I CANNOT stop drooling. Sso came out to kill everyone, I mean EVERYONE, and she succeeded. This live performance is SUPERB, I like it better than the official MV. Our girls had never failed to impress me. I applaud you with Minnie applause.

[13.12.04] T-ara's Japanese fanclub suddenly shutting down.. Will they stop Japanese activities? Fans were left confused and wondering if T-ara will put an end to Japanese promotions after it was announced that T-ara's Japanese fanclub will be abruptly shut down next year in April. T-ara's official fanclub in Japan "Sweet Treasure" announced via their website that "After T-ara contract expires in April 2014, T-ara's fanclub will be dismissed. The registration renewal will end on the 31st and the fanclub and website will be shut down in April next year." They also said "Next April will be the final version of the newsletter, but members cannot ask for a refund. Please understand." They also thanked fans for their support for the past three years and apologized for the announcement. Korean netizens and T-ara's fans were left confused what was happening next and if T-ara will sign a new contract with a new agency. In regards to this, Core Contents Media said on the 4th, "T-ara's contract with the local Japanese agency J-ROCK that managed T-ara win Japan will expire in April of next year and they will not be resigning it thus the fanclub and website operation by J-ROCK being put to an end." Core Contents Media continued to say, "Core Contents Media's Japanese office CCM Japan will manage them. There are no plans yet to automatically switch the fans into a new fanclub, but T-ara will not cancel Japanese activities point blank. Next year, they will focus more on Chinese activities." T-ara are holding their comeback on the 5th at Mnet's "M!Countdown" with their new song "What Do I Do". *** Source: http://news.nate.com/view/20131204n19765 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

I just notice it after you pointed it out and I call myself a toku fan .___. Super Dorky Rolyranger I think. Jiyeon is red, Hyomin blue, Boram green, Qri pink, Soyeon yellow and Eunjung mysterious purple ranger. XD

This cycle is is exceeding all my expectations and Eunjung's new hairstyle looks great! ♥

[13.11.28] T-ara's Boram releases TTL/Snow White style teaser image Ahead of their comeback, T-ara has released the teaser image for Boram. The 4th member teaser released to the public was Boram. In her teaser images she sports a new hairstyle - a short bob that gives her more edge. In her images, she first appears in a TTL style and then has a contrasting image of a girl eating a poisonous apple in a fairy-tale Snow White style. Jiyeon's teaser image was dark and sorrowful, while Eunjung's was futuristic and provocative and Hyomin had a mysterious, sexy bunny charm. Now with Boram's image, it shows all four so far are different from each other and expectations are rised for the remaining two members. T-ara will premiere their music video on December 2nd at the COEX Megabox movie theater. *** Source: http://news.nate.com/view/20131128n11141 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

[13.11.25] "Reply 1994" star Son Hojun to star in T-ara's new music video Son Hojun will star in T-ara's new music video. According to Core Contents Media on the 25th, Son Hojun recorded his scenes for the music video on the 21st and above is a picture of him with the members during a break. Core Contents Media said, "The appearance of Son Hojun in T-ara's music video was determined a long time ago. There was a friendly atmosphere as the members filmed with him." Son Hojun has appeared in a variety of dramas including "Coffee House", "Shanghai Brothers", and currently attracting a lot of attention in the tvN drama "Reply 1994". T-ara will release "What Do I Do" on the 2nd of next month. It's their reinterpretation of the "What Do I Do" that won as the University Song of The Year in 1977. Core Contents Media also revealed that the T-ara members choreography and facial expressions will be reminiscent of a musical. The music video was also filmed in the aspect of a musical. *** Source: http://news.nate.com/view/20131125n17551 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

[13.11.22] T-ara reveals Jiyeon's sorrowful teaser image for "What Do I Do" The first teaser for T-ara's new song has been released featuring Jiyeon. On the 22nd, T-ara's agency revealed the teaser image for Jiyeon. The teaser shows Jiyeon in one moment with tears in her eyes and smeared lipstick, but in the second image, Jiyeon's presentation has a different feel. T-ara's new song 2013 "What Do I Do" will show the member's acting and expression through a musical-like choreography. The focal point of the choreography was also made to be like a musical sequence. T-ara's 2013 version of "What Do I Do" will sample the song of the same name by Sand Pebbles. The new version was produced and written by Shinsadong Tiger and has a sophisticated melody that young adults can enjoy, while the older population can also enjoy because of the past-favorite melody being recreated. In the end, "What Do I Do" is a pop-dance song that everyone will love. T-ara's teaser images will be revealed sequentially for each member and finally they will unveil the song on December 2nd. *** Source: http://news.nate.com/view/20131122n15561 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem

Whoa!! This is totally unexpected. Being a regular viewer of the MCountdown show, I can honestly and objectively say this is one of the best live performance on the show. I can't believe that they actually recreated the whole street scene on stage. The whole set up plus the backup dancers make for a really lively and fun performance. A real visual feast. Good job T-ara! An absolutely brilliant performance! Let's hope this amazing performance will equally be matched with a top placing the charts for the T-ara.

Their color coordination is almost like Super Sentai series. This is T-ara Sentai... Should it be Retroranger or Dorkyranger?

That was AMAZING.. just wow.. and they really set it up like a musical. Love the small details & props, Soyeon's mirror, Eunjeung's handphone and Hyomin's.. er was that a trash can? Also I bet a lot of people were confused with the 1977 intro MV but it was the perfect opening imho Intro Credit: KmnetLive2

Jiyeon is perfection, nuff said Can't check the rest of the images though, it says I don't have permission?

This was from AKP's translation of Sports Seoul: "We plan to manage it through Core Contents Media's CCM Japan. Although the fan club will not be automatically switched over, we plan to start one again... T-ara's Japanese activities will definitely not come to a close. Once they complete their activities in China, they will start again in Japan next year." I don't have any Korean language skills so I can't say which is more correct. But if its correct, the Sports Seoul is really not that gloom & doom of a news: So CCM won't use J-rock anymore, T-ara will be more focused on China for next year and there will be a new Japan comeback in 2014. Anyway CCM also have Choshinsung/Chōshinsei/Supernova which have quite a following in Japan so it might not be a bad idea to have their own agency branch handling things there. They also don't need to look around if they want to market SPEED & their other acts there. Personally I don't think J-rock did a very well job of handling T-ara in Japan so I'm kind of happy they are gone. Did they even do any real promotion at all for Number 9 JPN or even Target ~anyone seen a live performance of those? When was the last time T-ara got into a major Japanese music show or even be on TV besides small time cable and morning news clips? <For a group that has done Budokan and always get top ten in Oricon except one time (more on that later) it is unforgivable that T-ara never performed in Music Station...> Why do T-ara always launch songs when the top local girl bands are also launching theirs? Who launches a CD single (lovey dovey Jpn) just two weeks before the launch of an album (Jewelry Box --> Lovey Dovey is in it)? Why come out with a pirate concept but don't promote with it? etc. etc. Of course you might say that the bone head moves were made by CCM (read KKS) but J-rock was the local expert of the market and should've known better. Some might also say that T-ara not showing that much on Japanese TV is because the scandal & that T-ara is not that popular any more... are you kidding me? T-ara gets top ten in Oricon for every single title song they have (even with lackluster promotions) except Number 9.. but even that song managed to get #13 without any promotion & with the Korean comeback ending just days before & still fresh on J-Queens minds (The Japanese do get youtube and can buy Korean albums in Japan also you know CCM). And you can even count with your fingers the number of Japanese girl bands that get to play in the hallowed Budokan Hall.. T-ara did two-day concerts there twice, this year alone (that's four times in my book) not to mention having a multi-city concert tour.

[13.11.27] T-ara to hold a release event for the "What Do I Do" music video at Coex Megabox Theater Girl group T-ara will reveal their 2013 "What Do I Do" music video at the COEX Megabox Theater.
