[12.09.02] T-ara to release four music videos at midnight on September 3rd






T-ara's "SEXY LOVE" music video will be released at midnight on September 3rd.
T-ara's "SEXY LOVE" music video will be the sequel to "DAY BY DAY" and 15-minutes long and will also include a robot-dance version and a BTS music video making part. The drama music video for the ballad "Day and Night" will also be released at the same time.
The ballad "Day and Night" features Gavy NJ member Geonji as well as the famous 4-octave singer from Star King from British named Shannon and T-ara member Areum. The song is a sad ballad with a stunning rap part.
"SEXY LOVE" is fourth in the series which was produced by Shinsadong Tiger and written by Choi Kyujung. "Day and Night" was the joint-work of composer Cho Youngsoo and the lyricist Ahn Youngmin.
T-ara will showcase a robot dance on stage alongside their electronic synth-pop "SEXY LOVE" and will continue showcasing an exotic charm they began with "DAY BY DAY".
T-ara's four different versions (T/N: drama in two parts 'Sexy Love' and 'Day and Night', dance version of 'Sexy Love' and BTS version I think) of the music video will be released on the 3rd at midnight (September 2nd 11:59 PM).

[12.08.05] True or not, the public will only believe what they want about T-ara's bullying situation





"Tara-'s Hwayoung Was Not Bullied!" Written by Kim Yong Hyo, a reporter who has written many editorials on hot issues within the entertainment industry for the column [연예세상 비틀어보기]
T-ara’s Hwayoung never once mentioned the word “bullying.” And in reality she was not bullied. Netizens are merely creating evidence of bullying. (Those who seek the truth about such ‘bullying evidence’ please see the post http://thetaratruth.tumblr.com). Nevertheless, the public now believes “Hwayoung was bullied” as the truth. Why is this? Probably because from the very beginning, many believed in the rumour that there is bullying among girl groups in the entertainment industry. But some activists used what is claimed as ‘evidence’ to cleverly fabricate stories and to stir up the innocent and trusting public.
The first time I heard about the news of Hwayoung being bullied, I asked “So you’re saying that T-ara’s Hwayoung was bullied”? Because this it not the truth. Recently, I went with T-ara to their Tokyo Concert to gather information, and Hwayoung and the other members got along very well. Used in relation to her, the word ‘bullied’ is inappropriate. Born with a beautiful appearance to a relatively well-off family, she grew up lacking nothing. And also with her father’s vigorous support for his daughter to become an artist. (Personally finding his way to a large agency company for his twin daughters to become artists, and interfering with CCM with all his might, a father like this, if his daughter really was bullied, would he really stand by and do nothing?)
Of course, because young girls are grouped together in girl groups, issues of envy and jealousy will come up sometimes. (This is true not only with T-ara, but also other girl groups). But to part of the public who are on a witch-hunt against T-ara, these issues were not small conflicts, but collective violence. I can guarantee, such incidents did not, and could not possibly exist. But the public believes that T-ara members are bullies, without a doubt. Therefore, some of the members’ past and private life etc have also been dragged out into the public for discussion. Even more cunningly, netizens have packaged and claimed their actions on the internet as done to protect the victim Hwayoung from the other members’ violence and bullying.
T-ara is now fully wounded. But the cruel public continues to use their hatefully crafted products (i.e the ‘evidence’) to mock them. They truly see their own actions as legitimate and just. T-ara’s Hwayoung was not bullied. Even if there was conflict with Hwayoung, the level of intensity and strength compared to the bashing now done to Tara is not even one in a million.
The public only believes what it wants to believe. The more frightening part is that they will never admit or accept any rebuttals to the contrary. Their reaction to this article will probably be, “Oh, he must have received money from Kim Kwangsoo.” But this is not a rebuttal. It is the truth that those who hate T-ara never want to believe.

I hope the choreo is gonna be awesome plz!!!!
i hope one day Kyle Hanagami will do T-ara's choreography. he is the best and i kinda wanna see Jiyeon's popnlock/bboy skillz ^^ We need to see her talent.

yeah..jiyeon is way more better than both of them
she is a perfect maknae for t-ara no matter how many newcomers are added
but it seems that jiyeon is quite nice to Dani,
i think maybe jiyeon wants to be a good unnie just like how the others treat her when she is the maknae..
for me, it is really awkward to accept Dani as the new maknae, if only she is older, it will be better..
hope only good things will happen to them day by day..
jiyeon fighting!! t-ara fighting!!

I don't think it will happen...Jiyeon will still be the visual and main dancer of T-ara..And forever maknae to us..her fans right.... ^^
Since Jiyeon have the most fans in T-ara..I think she will still get most attention in T-ara.... ^^
And from what I see.. Dani and Areum are not that talented (only my opinion..no offense to dani and areum..) ...Jiyeon is way better.....so..don't worry.... ^^

Jiyeon lost everything....maknae, visual and main dancer.....what will happen....
This is what CCM pay her back..... no idea what KKS think.

dudududu I only see Jiyeon as maknae, what should I do??

Uhh..getting used to her is gonna take a while. "She's good at dancing and dropped T-ara's overall age, she's going to be a gem to T-ara" So, which part of that doesn't apply to Jiyeon? xD I still feel like shes an unnecessary addition >.>

I dont know if my post would be warned or not but still wanna say.
I've try my best but cannot welcome her
If the one who made this interview join our fandom he would see how messy we are now.

Well, of course she had to say as if it doesn't affect her negatively. Idols, particularly female idols, in Kpop are expected to be happy little angels by the media and the public as well as the fans themselves. They do anything slightly that's 'off the radar' then they get hounded mercilessly by netizens.
After all, KKS did say that if any of the current members opposed the member addition themselves, they'd be kicked out. This hardly comes as a surprise. There is a reason why she and Eunjung (or was it Hyomin?) played it off cool when asked at the airport prior to the trip to europe.
This comes off as a no surprise to me.

Ppic 1 and 3 are Daebak Love triangle for EunJiMin ...
Pic.1.
Dino:Eungio oppa!!!
Eungi:What are you doing? Why are you kill my Minnie?
Dino:Your Minnie? How about me? WAEEEEEEEEEEEE??????????????
Eungi:Why both are you always confusing me?
Dino:You the one always confusing us.That’s why I have to kill her.
Pic 3:
Minnie: Eungi oppa..I..have….something…….to……tell…..you….
Eungie oppa: Stop talking. Please don’t go..
Dino: You and you (pointing to Eungi and Minnie) both you can go to the hell!..If I can’t get you oppa,she also can get you.Nobody!
Eungie: Jiyeoh-ah,why are you being like this? (unfortunately…)
Dino:Op..oppp…oppaaaaaaa….I love......yo.......youuuu....Day........by.....Day...(starting collapse)
Eungie;Jiyeoh-ahhhhhhHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Minnie-ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here comes the whiny 14 year old, who had no interest or prior training in singing or dancing before being selected to be in the group, wanting to be on stage with established members in less than half a year of training. She clearly just wants to get all the fame and attention that T-ara has earned over the years without having to wait until December to do it. She wants to get on stage so she can hear people cheer for her and shout out her name without a clear understanding of how the Korean music industry works as well as how she'll possibly be perceived. I feel quite sorry for her as she comes across as not having a clue about what she's getting into. I seriously hope they reconsider her joining the group as she seems to be giving CCM a headache already with her request. She has no regard of how her joining the group can affect the others and is solely concerned about getting on stage just to be there. Exactly what I'd expect out of a 14 year old but not a future member of T-ara.

If he had cast her on the street, I think KKS should put more effort in refining her and make her debut a little later with other trainees or as a soloist.
If she really is such a nice find, KKS shouldn't push her debut, especially not with a group that's already successful. It's just a downfall for both Dani and T-ara imo.
And no matter how many hours of training is done beforehand, having only less than a year of training before putting in a top notch group is stupid as hell.
But i guess he lost his "Midas touch" because of other suppose 'failures' So he's just playing it safe and putting her in an already successful group.

She's cute but she should not be in a group with grown women! KKS is a moron! This is totally going to ruin T-ARA's image because now they:
a) Won't be able to do sexy concepts anymore and their previous sexy songs won't be able to be performed the same.
b ) Will get torn apart if they do a sexy concept because a 14 year old should not be doing sexy!
I hope that KKS changes his mind. It's not too late!

Seriously! Why on her birthday?!?! Why on Jiyeon's birthday?!?!
And the 8th will be revealed after Hyomin's birthday... Could you just reschedule the revelation.. make it after Jiyeon's birthday.. Please! Dont ruin her day.. it's her special day..

i really don't know what to said... this news is around for like centuries now... i want to see the new members already!! if they are good then great if not then they should really change the company's CEO! As long as my Park Sso is there and the MAIN VOCALS i'm cool with it. no matter how old is she there will be always jiyeon and hwayoung as my maknae...

Meh, I don't like it when groups change, especially for no reason. I only hope this doesn't have a negative effect on the current members.

my jiyeon unni is NOT the maknae anymore!!!!!!!! i hate it!!!!!

Lol whatever CCM... I don't know about others but I'm sick of such news to the point that I can't be bothered anymore. As long as the current 7 members are around, I don't care if u want to add anymore. Hopefully they will be lovely ladies like these 7 girls, then it will be great. If not, I'll just treat them as non-existent. Still gonna love the current 7 regardless of what happens though!

[12.03.22] T-ara to all go to Europe together and become first girl group insured for 10 billion won

Girl group T-ara will all go together to Europe for 9 days and 8 nights, and while on vacation, will be insured for 10 billion won.
T-ara members will fly to Milan and Venice, Italy then go to Austria and Switzerland and go back to Milan. On the 22nd, their agency announced that while on their trip, they'll be insured for 10 billion won in case of the situation that an abrupt event occurs.
T-ara will take a plane to Europe for 9 days and 8 nights with Core Contents Media's CEO Kim Kwangsoo and actresses Hwang Jihyun, Choi Sooeun, Lee Haein and supermodel Kim Hyeji, who are all part of a new seven-member girl group. With the girl group, they'll travel across Europe filming a music video.
The seven-member girl group's music video is directed by the "Music Video King" Cha Euntaek. They'll also be joined by Song Saehyun, who is a popular fashion photographer. Accompanying them will be 20 staff members. All in all, the trip will cost around 1 billion won and is all for the new girl group.
Even before their debut, music industry officials have been anticipating them.
T-ara members will also help Cha Euntaek and Song Saehyun by assisting them. T-ara will be able to add in their own personality into the shoot.
The seven-member girl group will release seven different music videos shot overseas. Their music videos will be different from regular music videos, and will be the same as a visual CF.
The seven-member girl group will debut in May.

And yes,we should.Some of them barely had any lines.Now,with the new members...hurm..
*Nod head* This just isn't fair to the old members.I seriously want KKS to resign.I wonder if T-ARA members already know about this.I bet each of them is feeling nerve wrecking like we are.

What the f!!! What the hell is ur problem??!! First Hwayoung... I mean she hasn't coped up with the popularity yet!! And now ur gonna change the members?!! Or perhaps add some?!!!! Ur so stupid Mr. CEO!! Do u even know marketing??? This is why t-ara doesnt have a fixed fanbase!! Its bcuz u keep on changin!!! Wtf?!!u dun give them theirdeserve breaks [only recently since debut, ur worse than SME] and u even excluded ur ace!! Baby dino!!
Gash now ur gonna change the members??!! Why can't u just keep the original members as it is!!! How stupid!! I am freakin sure that MAJORITY of the fans will disagree with this!!! I mean completely!!!

Then that will no longer be t-ara. Might as well give it a new name to that group.

Well this sucks. A lot. If my favorite gets removed, I don't think I could call myself a T-ara fan anymore.
