altair Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 i don't think it's the wrong path? though i prefer their innocent look. they should diversify! and not have the same look. do not put all your eggs in one basket. having different looks in different songs in the same album.

Pishin Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Every group or singer changes their concepts and images. I personally like their current concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola-b Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 I don't think that they have gone down the wrong path. The cute and innocent concept of a lot of girl groups in K-Pop usually annoys me so much. I like the more mature and sexy approach that might appeal to a larger and older audience instead of just trying to win over teens. They come over as strong and independent women that don't need a man to be successful ( LOL i think i just unintentionally mixed some lyrics from different songs...it sounds so cheesy -__-). I think it's a natural process that they are growing up and so is their music. I thought that they have a great mix of ballads but also up-tempo songs. I never understood why groups are put into stereotypes such as "dance group" or "ballad group", why can't a group do both? T-ara is one of the girl groups that I really like ( and I usually don't like girl groups that much, or rather I don't like the music) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoilt Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 I think it's natural for them to be going for a more mature look, most of the members are on their 20s already, so I think it's more suiting that they do something closer to their age than going all cute & innocent, even though nothing's wrong with the innocent concept.. I think whichever way they go, they can pull it off well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragance Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 No any other looks attract me more than Jiyeon in Apple CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van Pham Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 I think they made a great decision in helping the girls change from innocent to sexy & innocent! They do still show that they are vocally great as a group, but now they show that they are just AS GOOD AS THE OTHER GROUPS! THEY ARE AMAZING !!!!!!

hyo_hugger Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Of course not. The reason why T-ara is my favorite girl group is because even though they are relatively rookies, they already have done more concepts and images that the older groups. I like their powerful concept best, though I leave each and every one of them in every concept! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lipslikecoffee Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 No way! I only noticed T-ara AFTER they changed concepts. Not BPBP, because that still has a cute feel to it, but songs like TTL, IGCBOY and I'm Really Hurt are the ones that won me over. I love the fact that they're so versatile and can handle every concept thrown at them. For a rookie, the biggest challenge in my opinion is to appeal to different kinds of crowds and I think T-ara did that fairly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovekpop Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I wouldn't say they're going down the wrong path, they have better songs to promote but they rather promote the 'bad' songs or the songs that aren't that impressive, they have a lot of good songs but instead, they promote the ones that people find the least addicting. For example, T-ara's most recent comeback is with 'Yayaya' right? To be honest, I like 'Why Are You Being Like This?' better. It's more addictive and the choreography is not that boring. 'Yayaya' is cute and everything, but T-ara/CCM could have done a better job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celi Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Well, you can't expect an idol group to be on the same path. If you only do one kind of concept, then you're done. People love changes, changes mean more popularity. And if T-ara only do innocent concept, people will get bored and leave them. So, if their concept is going more sexier and sexier, it's for a good. I don't really like too if they sell 'sexiness' too much, but as long as it's in a minimum, I am okay with it. P.S. Yayaya is a new kind of concept again, right?

breakingheart_ Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 I don't think they're going down the wrong path T-ARA is trying different styles For YaYaYa, I don't think they're exactly going down the wrong path The song choice isn't that good of a quality, but like I said they're trying and experimenting with different concepts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimziq16 Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 the topics is so funny... i thot it was.. hahah lol nvm... they have to have a taste of both concept... so we won't get bored.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppyongie Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 nooooooo! they are going a very steady successful path towards the top! if you ask me,theyre the prettiest girl group! all of them are soo pretty and talented! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escope Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I enjoy different concepts. They should play with both sexy and cute, but I personally prefer the 'classy' looks. The beatiful, mature look that looks great no matter how old the members are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knockbaby.☆ Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 for me, it's not going down to the wrong path. for me, it is good for them. yes, i agree, they look good when they do cute mv and the like, but we should also consider that they age, and sometimes they prefer to change.

JLee♥ Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Well , i don't think they are going down the "wrong path" . They are so many GirlsGroup out there and if they keep on sticking to the same concept , people will start saying "this is getting boring" , "WTH ? same concept again ?" etc. so they need to keep changing concept to let the people feel "fresh" and i don't think this is considered as going down the "wrong path" . instead , i find it new everytime they have a new concept . Anyway , this is just my point of view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becca Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Honestly, most of the girls are in their 20s. It's not the 'wrong' path, it's the logical path for them to take. They can't dress and sing like little girls forever, that would just be really awkward Tbh though they never really did that, Bo Peep was an exception but from the outset they've always seemed like a more mature group, with strong vocals etc, rather than a cutesy, girly group. Maturer concepts suit them better, especially the older members, but even maknae Jiyeon did really well on 'I go crazy because of you' and showed her more mature side. I know all the perverted male fans would like to think they're all sweet, innocent and untouched, and many idol groups play up to that, but I like that T-Ara actually embraces their sexuality rather than shying away from it. Anyone who is too immature to deal with that can go listen to some KARA or SNSD lol (not hating, I love both of those groups too xD ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCrystallized. Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 No, T-ara isn't going down the wrong path in my opinion. Doing different concepts shows their versatility and adaptability. ;D Lies was innocent and feminine, Bo Peep Bo Peep was cute and sexy, IGCBOY was sexy and mature. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenSmiles Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 It seems that a lot of artists are doing that. It's sad to me, because I like the innocent appearance and mannerisms, but I guess there isn't much I can do about it. I like to think that maybe artists will turn back to their old concepts?

jiyeon♥ Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 no, not at all. you need a variety of concepts to survive in this industry. i must say i liked their strong fierce and powerful concept of IGCBOY and that came later on. i can see why ppl might think YaYaYa was a trainwreck but i still enjoyed it, and i can see why T-ARA chose the song, it coudlve easily been a massive hit if SNSD released it. but no T-ara are talented and versatile, it would take a lot to bring these girls down or "head them down the wrong path" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyo^^ Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 they can pull off so much concepts its so amazing t-aras such a good group i think that they are going to be succesful anywhere they go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heleth Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Personally I like TTL concept the best. Slow ballad like music with dance beat added to it. I love the mature image they have now. I feel that it suits them a lot better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinnie Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 i dont think there's such thing as a wrong or right path anyway the concept changes depending on the songs they get and since they're artists they should be capable of making a concept into their concept i think its better to have changing concepts then to always sticking to one concept it shows the audience the different styles they can tackle; without any trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewz Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 maybe their song makes me thought that they're going down.. but seems that their fans were increase and they had received many awards.. they also increase their popularity through T-ara Dreamgirls,t-ara dot com.. i think they increased a lot..

tGo Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 I don't believe so, as time goes on usually every group starts off more cute then leads to something more mature. If they mix it up once in a while i think they should be fine. Yayaya is both a cute and mature concept so it's not totally different from wat they did in the beginning.
