July is a massive comeback month for girl groups with AOA, SISTAR, Girl's Day and Nine Muses already making their comebacks and Girls' Generation following soon. On the flip side, T-ara has been excelling in China as proven by their fanclub just recently surpassing 1,000,000 members! T-ara is the first group to reach over 1,000,000 members - they experienced a surge in members after news that Jiyeon was dating actor and co-star Lee Donggun. After reaching an immense amount of popularity in 2011 and 2012 with "Roly-Poly" and "Lovey-Dovey" in Korea and breaking girl group records, T-ara has proven they are a global power artist when their Japanese debut single "Bo Peep Bo Peep" broke records on the Japanese Oricon chart. Now, they are continuing to break records for Korean groups - but this time in China. Despite that, they still continue to cater to fans in each country as proven by their 6-episode web-drama which will be simultaneously released in Korea and China. T-ara is currently in the middle of their Great China Tour and just released a new promotional video for it as shown above. They will hold a press conference on July 10th in Beijing ahead of their July 11th concert date.

Jiyeon (22) is revealed to be dating actor Lee Donggun (35)! On the 3rd, a Chinese fan uploaded an intimate picture of Jiyeon and Lee Donggun showing skinship at a restaurant with staff members from the movie "Encounter". "Encounter" is the Korean-Chinese movie that Jiyeon and Donggun have been filming since May together and slowly they developed a crush on each other. According to a source, the two are not scared to show their affection for each other after the movie filming process. Lee Donggun entered the entertainment industry in 1998 as a singer but since then he has been popular as an actor in various dramas and movies including "Lovers in Paris". Jiyeon began appearing in the industry during 2007 but debuted as a singer in 2009 as a T-ara member.
