Hwayoung just got out of this chaos and is already ready to jump right back in? I really wish she would take some time off, she must have some decent savings as she doesn't strike me to be the type to make extravagant purchases or investments. Take a month or so off and then ease back into the Kpop industry. We will still be here when she finally returns.

Have I dropped my paragraph+ long two-cents here yet? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO Hwayoung don't go back. You were just cut loose from a toxic environment to go running back and admitting fault. You're killing a chance for you to grow independently and for the other T-ara to redeem themselves. This is a win for KKS. Now he'll go on the tirade that you were always the root of the issue and that he was always right, the truth of the situation will never reach light and who knows what'll happen behind closed doors once more.

I don't care what becomes of the relation between Hwayoung-KKS or T-ara-KKS. As long as Hwayoung and T-ara make peace. If they did indeed have their difference at this point both sides are prob ready to start rebuilding bridges. Not a single F is given for that CEO who let his top group fall into a hole and proceeded to bury them by silencing them, pointing fault and just overall doing a terrible job delegating.

Well the good news is this incident has T-ara whipped. They won't ever bare teeth at each other again. Which is sad because a group of friends is naturally supposed to have their ups and downs, they just have to do it together.

Sigh, yet he still shifts the blame toward Hwayoung, the sister and T-ara. Last time I checked it was his dodging the truth and mud-slinging that fueled the fire anyways. How about, "I should've taken better care of my employees who are still very young at heart and mind". Would've at least made him look somewhat sympathetic and grateful for his employees. After all, what is CCM without T-ara.

Man that fool would take that as a challenge. He's too prideful as an industry CEO to let his employees leave on their terms. Let's not forget the repurcussions for breaching a contract. He would add salt to the wounds that the Kpop world has given them now.

Controvery or not. I still call myself a T-ara fan. I've always said it was tough being a T-ara fan. Now is no different,

Either that...or CCM will release one claiming the police to be divas.

Damn I would really love those posters. What a waste...

I hope the group doesn't do anything drastic. The whole Kpop world and then some will be watching that performance. And how does CCM contradict themselves within the same article. It's not a suspension of activities because there are none...yet they have canceled some. Hmm...

LOL KKS YOU CLOWN. Protect Hwayoung...but regularly release articles to make her look bad. Those articles have as much weight in truth as these anonymous posts coming up. Now the apex of this shtstorm is when this controversy becomes big enough to fall upon the ears of an American audience. Britney Spears wants her song back. THAT is real legal action, CCM.

It's frustrating why KKS won't let the girls clear the air. They're being attacked left and right and he's letting them take it. By the time he lets them, the negative feelings people have for the girls will be set in stone.

What is this dude's intention. Is it to help or harm Hwayoung after her departure? What is he doing to protect the rest of T-ara, the most successful aspect of his company. He is letting his empire burn because he can't keep the lies straight. That's what happens when you fill your staff with yes men and people fueled by money. I really wish the attacks were not at the members of T-ara until it's discovered the bullying incident exists [at this point the evidence does not favor the girls] and instead solely on KKS. If there is no bullying, he should let them speak...hell even apologize for upsetting fans and clear the air. How many days after and we've heard NOTHING from anyone involved. However if they are...man.

CCM is not dumb. A bit but not totally over the edge anyway. They're keeping Hyoyoung as a bit of leverage. It's much easier to control and discipline someone if they are an employee under a binding contract. By kicking Hwayoung out, it temporarily "solves" the problem but Hyoyoung is the life insurance. If KKS fired both Hwayoung and Hyoyoung, he would have no leverage and they would be free to talk as they want. While the situation might be reversed, that Hyoyoung is one of the more popular members in her group, she may face some icey attitudes and situations from the higher ups. It wouldn't be surprising that Hwayoung left on KKS' terms...to keep her mouth shut and take the media beating as it is dished by CCM. I feel so bad for Hwayoung, Hyoyoung and their parents. As a sign of respect, they have to take sht from the employers, esp ones who made their daughters famous and gave them a chance. Korean culture FTL I guess. Just my opinion, but I worked a lot for big companies who have their share of issues but did not let the damage get this out of control. Same sht, different pile

6-ara got me into Kpop. I loved 7-ara and I would support the group as 8, 9 or more because they are still T-ara. I'd rather Hwayoung not rejoin, in doing so she's right back at square one and she has to publically admit fault? He is STILL denying the bullying claims. T-ara should pull a Kara, and fight back. This situation can be still be saved if the rest of the girls started spilling the crap behind closed doors and they too express desire to leave CCM. They should rejoin as 7-ara at another label. That's if Hwayoung has no ill feelings towards the rest and vice versa. Hwayoung didn't take this crap lightly, so why do the other members continue to do so. KKS no longer has pull on the media that he thought he did. While he may have some pull over writers and producers, the bigger names do not have any label loyalty, only group. He can't cripple T-ara like he thinks he can.

Poor everyone. Even Qri, Areum and Dani even when they have done nothing. They have to be in the middle of this debacle and do nothing but watch the empire burn. Though this gives Eunjung a chance to redeem herself by bringing to light her view on the facts and what really went on. This should be plenty incentive to talk. Guilty or not, the damage is done. Please Eunjung do something to win back some sympathy. I'll stand behind you always but I'm only one in millions of fans out there.

Your guess is as good as mine lol. I can't understand Japanese.

It would be great to hear the two sides of the story that matter. However with the people in charge we may be hearing just one very skewed version. The others being repressed or falling on deaf ears. Here's something I stumbled on while on another site: Source: @kittychocola and http://forums.allkpo...hwayoung.19606/

I don't blame the fans. The consistent message here is we're all humans. I love T-ara as much as the next fan but I do not picture myself at one of their concerts and actually enjoying it at the moment. Maybe after some time to get out of the shock and let the facts settle, but a time of such high emotion often come with drastic, impulsive actions.

Not only feel but support what she did. Not the most mature thing, I admit but I'd do the same thing. Let's put it in normal people terms. Monday you hang with friends, they make negative remakes verbally. Tuesday, when they asked you to hang out again, do you happily oblige? I wouldn't. So later Tuesday one of the friends makes a public post not directly talking about you bot doing so in a passive manner. The worst kind IMO. That's public and proud cowardice. Come Wednesday I would be heated. REGARDLESS, that is my opinion. The only thing that matters is I hope Hwayoung sees this as the "darkest before dawn". And T-ara in general for not only being involved in this situation but being further manipulated by a certain CEO. Hwayoung did what none of them dared to do.

Readers - keep in mind she did so AFTER the Budokan concert, which if I recall is where this incident started. As a person, I'd be upset and would act similarly to Hwayoung after receiving such treatment then asked to perform with and for the same people not long after. I applaud Hwayoung. Don't take this crap sitting down.

If any smear campaigns erupt...Hwayoung is at a serious disadvantage even though she's likely to be a victim here . KKS has experience and the know-hows of the industry and honestly the staff who will do as told. Hwayoung has herself, sister and Twitter. No experience, no help other than pretty much herself. Fans opinions really aren't taken as ammo much.

WHY IS THE REST OF T-ARA SILENT. CCM said they wanted Hwayoung to stay, they are grown ups...they have access to the internet, phone, media, etc. we really need to hear their side. Obv someone is keeping them quiet on purpose. And Hwayoung's termination with no conditions? I bet she had a slew of conditions or was straight up booted, left on bad terms.

I love the group as a whole and support them so even if I have a preference of one member over another... while Hwayoung wasn't my all-time favorite, she has my consistent support as the underdog and sleeper rapper that she is . My preference for my bias won't override the repulsive acts committed toward a fellow member...though I won't jump on the hate bandwagon, the disappointment in T-ara and the management is strong enough. Injustive anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Good luck Hwayoung. This may be a blessing in disguise, we all have an idea how binding idol contracts can be and you have been freed of that and an environment where you were persecuted. She had shown the media her talents and DBD really showed it in the spotlight. I supported you since day one and will continue to do so. 6ara + Areum...you guys are still my favorite group but it won't be the same. Ever.
