WOW?! Thank you for sharing! I appreciate all you dedicated Queens who collect the published hard copies of magazines, articles, and new papers and post them for the rest of us to view. I would, but I just don't have the time and money to source them out all over the world. I try and buy as many "Official" DVD/PhotoBooks as I can find in every Country/Fan Club possible. So, if you Queens and Kings know of any new releases....please PM me! I would prefer ENG SUB'S first, but if not, then the original country language is ok. I will find a way to translate it after. My bias is Jiyeon #1, QRI #2, <3 Hyomin & Eunjung #3.....but, I am interested in all our Girls!!! Mahalo, David from Hawaii @dyohagi dave.yamada.3@facebook.com Hwaiting T-ara!!!!!!!!!

As always the professional discipline that each member displays in their busy schedules reveal the mastery of their skills as true entertainers! I bow to their awesome abilities to perform wherever and whenever CCM & KKS demand them to be, and still produce outstanding concerts, fresh stage shows, thrilling MV's, adorable reality shows, extremely close-up and sometimes very intrusive and painful intrusions into their personal life shows (which we Fans thrive on?!?!^ ^), beautiful songs, stellar dramas and movies, and do so much more.......yet, they all look like Princesses poised ready for a cotillion with their ravishing beauty and exquisite S-line figures every time! That's our ❤T-ara!!! I'm looking forward to this new promotion as well as all their Japan releases and tour!!! Hwaiting T-ara, T-ara N4, and QBS❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love their facial expressions! It is good to see them relax and enjoying themselves, although "working on the job" as usual.

Thank you for allowing me to share in the forum and all the great news and information of the Best SK Idol Girl Group~T-ara♥, there is in my eyes!!! I will continue to donate whenever I can!

Hyomin is definitely our model of T-ara♥♥♥! Such a natural anywhere she poses....always pretty, always gorgeous!

I expected a new release soon after their "Comeback" in Japan as T-ara7, but I didn't think it would be a listing of this compilation of songs either?! Totally caught me by surprise. T-ara is/has been full of surprises as of late? A new strategy of KKS & CCM, or just shooting from the hip-type-of-management again? Regardless, luckily so far, they have been doing fine. Thank goodness. And, I for one will continue to support them as I always have and will. I look forward to this new albums' release, because I like their Japanese style of music/songs......although, I do prefer them overall in their native language. I will put in my order as soon as I find it on the web!!! Hwaiting My T-ara, T-ara N4, and QBS❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Ps. Thank you very much for the Breaking News! Aloha Diadem!!!!

I understand QRI's puppy name Babpur is translated as "grain of rice"??? Is that correct!? That is so QRI!!!? With her humor! I Love Cutie QRI!!! That is why she is always my second or third bias❤❤.....she keeps tugging at my heart? Aaaaahhhhhhh!!! Lol!

She is so yummy cute!!! OMG!!!! Lol! I Love how shy she gets when she gets cornered! Such a Lovely Lady.......you just don't find many pure and innocent gems like her anymore in this world anymore??? But, we found her! I am so proud that I can be associated with her by some small minuscule way. ヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ May she blessed

Lol! They are so funny! This one came out really fast? I am surprised and happy?! Especially right after my favorite bias Jiyeon's Birthday! I am already on a high from staying up all nigh to tweet with everyone at 2:00am Hawaii time! Lol! Then got to talking with everyone on her birthday.....

Poor girls.....I'm sure they feel a little uncomfortable as well as lonely since there is only themselves to talk to in that very loud and extremely rowdy crowd!!!? (.-.)。。。。In shock!!!!! HOW RUDE!!!! O M G ......?????? That video!!!? Is that really our T-ara N4 ladies???? ........................

Cutie QRI is my Princess♥♥♥! She is always beautiful as she is graceful...... Hwaiting QBS in Japan! Gambatte masu!

Looking Gorgeous ♥♥♥Hyomin!!! Just like a S. Cal. Beach Babe!

It seems the "backlash" or the result of has started already. I m getting all sorts of inquires from friends from the mainland about T-ara N4!!!!!! In the positive note!!!! (☆_☆) My friends know I am a Huge fan of K-Pop/J-Pop and wanted to know who is "T-ara N4"???!!!!! WOW?!?! They had seen it on YT or news? I am trying to get link or info to share!!! Awesome Queens! Well......if anything, this is global exposure of the Brand Name T-ara! Maybe this is not what was intended, but results wise, a hidden blessing for our Queens! Hwaiting!!! quote name="Emperor Ryu" post="413548" timestamp="1368322620"]Chris Brown was arrested on March 5, 2009, which is much longer than T-ara's incident last year, so there's a difference beside the level of severity and consequences that was taken between both parties here. I do not believe you're correct about Kim Kwang Soo only keeping Hyomin, Eunjung, Jiyeon, because Areum is right there with them as a sub-unit, and Jiyeon informing everybody about the Soyeon-Boram-Qri sub-unit later on. I was told that Girls' Generation will be releasing an English Album this year. 2NE1 is rumored to release one as well, including the Wonder Girls, although that seems like it'll happen next year for them. I remember reading about Rania making a push into the U.S. sometime this month and rumors about talks with signing with a label company. Not sure which one, but I do recall someone mentioning one of Chris Brown's labels. I'm not going to jump to conclusions about any of their works, because I haven't heard and/or seen any of the works to make an accurate assessment. In fact, none of us can make such conclusions until we've seen officially released promotional materials for them. Best to wait for their releases and watch the results unfold. Psy is helping to pave K-Pop a way more accessible into the U.S. market, thanks to previous K-Pop artists before in their attempts to get in as well, even though it didn't yield as much, but in the larger picture, it is progressing better than before. We're not sure how good their level of English is right now, but Dani is from the U.S., and if I can recall, Tiffany from Girls' Generation did most of the interviews while in our nation. Again, K-Pop since the late 1990s has vastly improved presently. Even though the measure of success is not on par with the local prominent U.S. artists, that doesn't mean that they're failures, because without such attempts, Psy, Girls' Generation, Wonder Girls, and 2NE1 won't have gotten that much opportunities to perform here. Given how other K-Pop artists are getting into the U.S., like f(x), Rania, and Sistar, K-Pop has been working progressively over the years, because there are fans here. There are way more K-Pop artists getting into the U.S. since the early 2000s, and that alone speaks just how much the genre has improved and still improving. Please remember that T-ara incident is actually the biggest farce by antis ever in K-Pop history. His fourth album did top the Billboard 200 upon its release and sold around 270,000 copies during its first week, in early 2011. His "Yeah 3x" single did well too, even internationally, which was rather surprising, but did signify that we've moved on from his wrongful ordeal with Rihanna, even though this incident is already permanent on his life record. Given the positive feedbacks that was received on his comeback, I still believe there's redemption for him to achieve, but still open for debate because of the potential backlash for an alleged accusation that he violated his court sentencing term, and his second break up Rihanna by classically cheating on her with another woman recently. I'll give Chris Brown the benefit to improve himself. As for T-ara working with him, I still do believe it'll be more in favor of T-ara. But, we'll just have to wait and see, because it's still in the negotiation phase and nothing has been finalized on this collaboration. Well, he did complete his domestic violence courses and was psychologically approved to deal with his own anger management by court order, so I won't overly exaggerate, but will be cautious to be safe when working with him and keep things professional as singers and co-workers, that is, should they complete their negotiations and decide on working together, and have him assist T-ara debuting in the U.S. Please keep in mind, we still don't know when T-ara's U.S. debut will happen. It could next year, or the year after, and there's lots of things that could change during that amount of time. I don't believe any of those options are viable given the circumstances Chris Brown is currently facing from both the court and the public. He knows if he screws up this opportunity, an international one, he'll be struggling much worse than before in terms of his career and public image. He won't be able to make the level of comeback like his fourth album, should he screw up this one with T-ara. When his fourth album was released back in 2011, to much of everybody's surprise here in the U.S., international communities sprang forth in support of his single. European countries more notably. But his single with Justin Bieber, "Next To You" peaked at 95 on the GAON Chart, and his "Strip" song reached 43 later on during that year. Suffice to say, South Korea is aware of Chris Brown. As for the reactions here, everybody is reliving the events that happened back in 2009, despite efforts to remind others what has changed since then and what's happening right now. There's a possibility that it could work out for T-ara more than Chris Brown, should this become officially agreed that both him and T-ara will be working together in the U.S., which would be T-ara's debut in our country. We'll just have to wait and see what happens next. All of us are not sure just how successful this possible T-ara and Chris Brown collaboration is going to be, given the positive results from their comebacks. Image wise, and reputation, aside, it is possible to create a workable collaborative music together. Everybody in the entertainment industry faces that possibility of falling short in their works. The K-Pop industry are actually making more better progression into the U.S. market gradually, seeing how successful BoA, Wonder Girls, 2NE1, Girls' Generation were able to perform way more than previous K-Pop artists. When searching Chris Brown's earlier days it wasn't this bad, at least he's striving to redeem himself now than never, which is a good thing. As for T-ara, some of the antis still can't handle the truth from the members themselves, which still makes them rather pathetic. Some of other antis have changed for the better, which is good. They are still in the negotiating phase in light of these media reports on it. Nothing is finalized yet. I don't think it would tarnish T-ara's image, considering Chris Brown has his own to worry about. Since lots people don't believe in the antis against T-ara, and some antis becoming fans again, thanks to N4, T-ara is in a much better position to gain from this. Lots of things that could happen in the future for everybody, but considering the positive feedbacks for both T-ara N4's and Chris Brown's comebacks there might be a possible workable collaboration that could be beneficial for T-ara. In the actual scope of the K-Pop genre in the U.S., it has been gradually getting better and better, seeing how successful Psy has become recently. Other K-Pop artists before Girls' Generation, Wonder Girls, and 2NE1 helped open the possibilities for the genre's future prospects to become even more co-existent in the U.S. than previously. T-ara does study other languages, including English, because there are significant amount of U.S. fans of K-Pop artists. Chris Rock? That would be quite an surprising and interesting collaboration right here. Considering that T-ara has improved their image and reputation recently since N4's interview, and antis still running amok with their insanity, while their numbers are decreasing and T-ara support increased, and still increasing, T-ara is in a far better position than Chris Brown, who has a criminal record. Everybody knows that the bullying scandal was a sham and fabricated by antis. Compare that to the irrefutable proof of Rihanna's 911 call and facial injury photos, and his plead of guilty in a court of law, there's a huge, and quite massive difference between our T-ara and Chris Brown. There's no mistake about that. Common sense right now is that they are discussing the possibilities of working together. Nothing is finalized on this. But it does signify that T-ara does have possibilities to work with other artists and promote here in the U.S., which is very good to hear. Common sense will always remind all of us that human dignity of forgiveness and redemption will prevail so long as the person(s) actions, beliefs, and understanding is unwavering in the face of such life challenges ahead of them. Please remember, humans have the ability to learn from their own mistakes, and by encouraging this, will aide a better possibility for our future. Kim Kwang Soo knows what he's doing by talking things out with Chris Brown first, before making a decision on this. T-ara probably has a mutual respect and understanding on how well Chris Brown is trying to improve himself, and learning from his mistakes, which could help them out. There's also that possibility that Chris Brown could help T-ara in working with other artists too, like Rihanna. We all just have to wait and see what will happen next. If this collaboration does happen, I believe it'll work more in favor of T-ara and possibly improve a little bit on Chris Brown. Please note that Psychology and Physics are 2 different fields of study. If both were one in the same field and were true, there will be way more wars throughout our history and justify any unwarranted hatred as a just cause to murder someone, even if that person was simply ugly or made an idiotic comment.

Is that last group photo with the guy in the middle a MV shoot?

This puts T-ara N4 on a whole new playing level in the world of music of the SK girl groups.....as far as the international stage is concerned. With the possibility of other collaborations, T-ara N4 may become a full-blown Hip-Hop group as a standalone without Qri, Soyeon and Boram??? He sad?! If.....they are successful that is in the American market and abroad.

What?!?!?!? I just read the post about Chris Brown??? Really???? Do we really need his help/assistance in promoting T-ara/N4 in the US????? ......I am really leery of his reputation and what his "help" might do to tarnish our Queen's name in the US and the World? Just my thoughts......
