  1. Random scouting like that isn't unusual. That's how Eunjung was found a long time ago, Soomi from Seeya/coed/5dolls, Jessica from SNSD, Lee Hyori, etc. And she'll have about as much training as Hwayoung did before debuting.

    Anyway, I'm still curious to see what she'll be able to add to T-ara. Hopefully she'll show as much growth as Hwayoung has over the past 2 years!

  2. I'm starting to worry if T-ara might be a laughing stock from netizens for having a Mother-Daughter years gap a.k.a Auntie Boram and Auntie Qri.

    2NE1 has Bom+Dara/Mimzy with a 10-11 year age gap and After School has Kahi/Gaeun with a 14 year age gap. It's not that big of a deal. She is young, but a lot of people debuted at 14. Sohee, Sunmi, HyunA, etc. This is just a few off the top of my head but there's a lot more as well.

  3. CCM certainly didn't leak anything about Nam Gyuri when she left.

    They really didn't leak anything, but they very obviously made a strong attempt to drag Gyuri's name through the mud during that press conference they had on the set of Women's Generation. They aired out all of their private dirty laundry to the public, called her a liar, said she had dual contracts, a secret boyfriend to "sponsor" her (we all know what that means), etc. They all made the whole situation much bigger than it needed to be, just to vilify Gyuri.

    This was Gyuri's response to the situation:

    I hated having to join hands with the devil. I didn’t want to live the kind of life people commonly talk about, about being entangled and bound to money. Who is the person behind me? When did I have a dual contract? Who is my sponsor and who is this boyfriend that is helping me? How much money did I make and how many hidden secrets contained within secrets do i have to reveal? This whole matter has turned into a huge “he said, she said” situation we’ve all dealt with in elementary school. The three members and company involved should really stop with the media play. It’s starting to make them all look bad because they all just seem to be playing victim. It’s time for them to invest the pretty penny they made into something called a lawyer and take it to court already.

  4. It looks bad just looking at the ranking, but the sales are pretty good for their second week... For comparison, Bo Peep Bo Peep sold about 8,000 in its second week. They ranked #8 that week just because all sales were lower, I guess. For them to do the same this week they would've had to move another 20,000 copies which would be impossible :lol: Not even the two artists who sold 120,000+ last week stayed over 20,000 this week.

  5. On January 9th, Core Contents Media had a phone interview with News En, stating, “What reason do we have to add another member?”

    Wonder what happened to this. lol

    I'll save my reaction for April 7th. At this point, it still seems like scare tactics/noise marketing due to the fact that he keeps putting out statements saying they're "undecided", he's just throwing all the unconfirmed possibilities out there because he knows they'll make news and get everyone talking. Isn't Kwangsoo well known for his media play? I'm sure something is going to change, but right now I just don't feel like it'll be as devastating as most people think it will be.
