It's tough to beat IU right now and I won't disparage her for having success because she deserves it, but I still felt sad when she beat out T-ARA. The great thing about this comeback in addition to their music, is the sense that things have returned to how they should be. T-ARA is back to their original lineup, they're feeling the love from Korea and most importantly, the girls seem happy. ♥

[13.10.23] Video - T-ara " Number Nine " @ UN Peace Festival
CptFantasy replied to aleya's topic in Latest Updates
The first thing about Jiyeon I thought was "oh no! She re-injured her knee!" but the broadcast date was today while the recording was on 131019. Her knee is apparently feeling good enough for her to do the regular No. 9 choreography now. -
Here is an example of the Sand Pebbles sound. They're pretty slick. T-ARA 's composers re-imagining this sound with the girls performing it makes me very excited! Here is what we can look forward to. That might just be a teaser image but even if that were the album packaging, it's not a big deal to me because I don't spend much time looking at the album art comparative to listening to the tracks.

Wow! They look beautiful! I love when they attend the fashion events.

Kim Kwang Soo gets a lot of grief for his management style and a lot of it is well deserved, but recently in an interview Eunjung stated that he has backed off a bit from his overbearing style (I'm paraphrasing. Obviously Eunjung is far more diplomatic than I in this matter) partially because he's getting older and that firey disposition is starting to subside a bit. So it's entirely possible that while T-ARA has learned and grown from their experience that Kim Kwang Soo might have as well. He acknowledges some of his faults, he reverted T-ARA back to the original 6 members and they are in the midst of a successful comeback so he's doing some things right. That would deserve some recognition.

[13.10.17] Video HD- T-ara "Number 9" @ M! Countdown

Jiyeon's Injury is almost certainly a direct result of over-exertion. Everyone needs time to rest. CCM running our girls ragged like this is not cool! -

The feels! T_T They are so hard on themselves! That makes me feel a bit sad for them. If I could get a message to them, it would be that they have a lot of fans that love and support them all over the world and those fans want them to be successful and happy. Clearly from before their debut, Kim Kwang Soo had the vision of T-ARA surpassing SNSD's success but I don't know if that was a realistic at the time. Instead of letting the group evolve organically, he tried to force it with crazy scheduling, personnel changes and artificially inflated hype. I'm inspired by their recent interviews where they state their goal as continuing to develop and evolve as a group instead of merely just being #1 in sales. Obviously the goal of any group is to be the most successful ever but maximizing individual talents and getting the most out of the team's synergy is how you get to #1 rather than mimicking what someone else is doing. I think Kim Kwang Soo might finally be understanding this. Regarding KKS, I think this comeback is perhaps indicative of some new growth and maturity from him too. T-ARA is still promoting like crazy, but he's letting the girls get back to what made them so popular and successful in the first place. P.S. Now I want to hug Boram. ♥
