Well it's a done deal now and people are watching it so the problem is CCM's to deal with. Hopefully CCM and Hyomin get credit for those views. In any event, I'm excited for the MV and promotions. Soompi, tell me where I can buy an autographed copy!

well my mistake then i guess. but still... wtf dispatch? I dont get it. This was supposed to be released in 6 hours on Coremidas and now Dispatch gets all the views for it. That doesn't seem right.

Seriously guys, only post these from Coremidas... Hyomin gets no benefit from YouTube views when people watch it from leaked sources.

Love the blue suit! I miss Show Champion when Eunjung and Amber were MC's.

BTW did any of you catch Jiyeon's Jingdot video message? It's the one where @ 00:42 she says

It's being billed as the 1st mini album so, yes.

The text on the can says it's "Hyomin" flavour. I bet it's delicious!

Awww... Jiyeon promoting Hyomin on T-ARAholic. ♥ CR: Park Jiyeon + T-ARAholic app Jiyeon doesn't like using SNS (sorry, no Instagram for Jiyeon anytime soon) but she promotes Hyomin at the first opportunity. MinYeon! ~♥

Initially it was reported the concept for this song was inspired by Lee Hyori's 10 Minutes so everything seems pretty consistent with that so far. People really seemed to like Loco's "Hold Me Tight" single too. I hope this is really successful for them both. For those unfamiliar with Brave Bros., he did a lot of work with Sistar that fans really liked.

I've heard good things about Loco. Looking forward to the teaser in 2 days. Was this always the plan though? Solo is different than collab.

Well let's not go completely stan here. I mean it would be pretty weird to ask Jiyeon to sip your coffee before she gave it to you. However if we were hanging out and she took a sip of my coffee, I wouldn't be particularly worried about cooties.

Jiyeon can drink straight out of the carafe before serving me as far as I'm concerned.

I'm ready for a new T-ARA release. One of the greatest things about the Bunny Style release in Japan was the feature of every member performing a solo song. It would be pretty cool if they could incorporate something like that on their next album. Not holding my breath there but I'm always happy to see T-ARA promote and they're definitely making some improvements in the Korean market by virtue of Jiyeon's solo promotions.

I think Boram might have the Benjamin Button condition where people age in reverse.

It was a launch event rather than a party. Eunjung and Jiyeon look great with the jeans/t shirt looks. ♥

Thank you for the photos everyone! I love that Eunjung image. ♥ That's my phone's background now. ㅋㅋㅋ

Image #2: All I can think of is "street mimes in love".

Qri posted a great video of T-ARA presenting Jiyeon with her birthday cake. Eunjung was holding the cake, Jiyeon jumped around with glee and Qri fed Jiyeon a strawberry. ♥ I wish I could share the video but Qri asks fans not to.

I think in a lot of other countries this doesn't get the 19+ rating but Korea's gov't is super uptight about this sort of thing and they make it taboo. It's the same mindset that got people uncomfortable with Jiyeon's pelvic dance. International fans thought it was no big deal but obviously some people in Korea got very awkward about it. It's basically a "love advice" show, a bit like "Hello Counselor" but talking about relationship issues and people are loving it! People call in with their problems while the hosts and guests sound off with their impressions of people's situations. This show opens up a dialogue that Korean society hasn't really had an opportunity to engage in yet. "Witch Hunt" represents a very significant and positive shift in Korea's culture. It's pretty cool that Eunjung is going to be a part of this.

Also the name "Witch Hunt" is a bit misleading. It's actually a bit of word play. Here is a good article detailing the show's style and format. It sounds like a good show addressing personal problems in a mature and understanding yet occasionally humorous way. This is something Eunjung really does well with since she likes to take care of everyone. ㅋㅋㅋ

Reading about the show, which started last year, it sounds pretty good. They talk frankly about love and relationships in ways that they weren't able to before on TV so this is really a groundbreaking thing for Korea. It was taken off the air for a while earlier this year because I guess the communications commission of Korea wanted a tape delay instead of a live broadcast so they could edit material they didn't like. That seems to have only made the show more popular. Taeyeon from Girls' Generation says she watches the show regularly though she's afraid to be on it herself. ㅋㅋㅋ Basically, it's a super popular show in Korea and therefore a good opportunity while Eunjung is great on variety shows because of her intelligence and charisma. I'm assuming we got a hint of what to expect from Eunjung's BNT article where she talks about dating pretty frankly. More and more, fans want idols to be real people rather than the highly polished images their agencies want them to project and this show seems like a great platform for them to relate to their fans in a way that shows like "Hello Counselor" don't allow for. Shippers might even expect her to talk about Jiyeon since she's popular right now.

I'm not familiar with the show but Eunjung is intelligent and mature so I'm sure she'll do well.
