nathaniel Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 [12.04.05] 7-member T-ara to reveal surprise tomorrow, "Becoming a 9-member group" 7-member girl group T-ara have revealed the high possibility of making big changes to their group. On the 5th, officials revealed to Star News that the seven members of T-ara: Boram, Qri, Eunjung, Hyomin, Hwayoung, Jiyeon and Soyeon, will release new songs and promote this summer, along with the high likelihood of adding two new people to become a nine-member group. T-ara's CEO Kim Kwangsoo said last month on the 14th that to take T-ara onto another level and in order to develop the group further, T-ara's music style and concepts will change, including the group members. Because the music industry is always changing and to keep people interested in T-ara, the seven member group have asserted they'll change into a nine-member group. T-ara debuted in 2009 and had consecutive hits beginning last summer with "Roly-Poly", "Cry Cry" and "Lovey-Dovey". It was recently revealed that for the first quarter of the year, Lovey-Dovey was ranked #1 on every Monkey3 music chart. T-ara also debuted in Japan and received a lot of attention and had the highest Korean girl group debut on the Oricon charts in history. The change in T-ara is expected to recruit members from foreign countries. Core Contents Media is still being cautious about the situation. An official said, "We can't confirm anything right now because it's not for sure yet. Kim Kwangsoo originally planned to reveal everything on the 7th, but decided to do an advance announcement to reveal everything on the 6th instead." *** Source: http://news.nate.com.../20120405n11401 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WooRi Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Its okay if they'll add 2 members but please don't replacing the original members.. 9 members it doesn't mean they want to follow Snsd.. Snsd & T-ara clearly has different concept & music. I dont think people out there will make comparison between these 2 groups & maybe 1 or 2 months people will talking about this & after that people out there (usually trolls/haters) will shut their mouth. You know what make it 9 members will make their singing skill on stage much much better than before.. I'm sure they will get lesser line (except Soyeon & Hyomin) but its better than nothing right?

Kagami Fuyumori Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 No, this is a big no. I'm glad that no one leave the group, but adding to new members? T-ara is successful with 7 members, and hell, each member doesn't receive equal attention now, so what will happen if there are nine? I love T7 because of my SEVEN Angels! vnboy0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adiprasatya Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 at least no one is removed. i'm glad the new member must have nice skills of vocal or else they should removed them again. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busyskies Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Rather take the addition then have any of the members replaced. I think KKS would have seen a fan riot if they did that. Wondering why make it a 9 group instead of just 1 extra addition. Bet they're trying to make a "new SNSD" team to take them on Lame. Should stick with the 7 but whatever. My thoughts are that they're gonna add Hwayoung's twin sister and ChanMi from CoED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiroM4A Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm tired of KKS. Whatever he's doing, my 7-ARA is forever. New member?! Well, maybe I need time to see them as ARA's pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilverein Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Why do they wanna add 2 more members then they are already perfect 7?? That would really mean each and everyone of them would be getting lesser lines in the future and that sucks pretty much. winnieBG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHUMMii Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 i cant accept thisnews ...i want T-ar to remain the same ..i like them as they are now there is no need for an addition of 2 new members that will only bring the group down winnieBG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soyah Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm taking this as just a seek-for-attention act. No changes in members, they're just wanting people to anticipate the news on 6th-7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mglsts Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Still not sure how this will go.... I'm glad that they wont kick anyone, but this can still screw the group dynamics, and I have this feeling those 2 will eventually replace someone...

CASPER.JiYEON Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 oh man i would LOVE to see what is going on inside KKS's brain. chingching, shalalapaula, dark-pocky-monster and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeautifulRobot Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Honestly, I'm just happy that they are not removing any of the members. I know that new members will sick at first, but they will eventually grow on me like Hwayoung did. I can't imagine T-ara without her now. The only thing that bothers me is the inevitable SNSD comparisons. I can just imagine all of that hate that they will be getting from obsessed SONEs.... :-/ NekoluvTiara and shalalapaula 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetcris Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm just glad there's no replacement in members. But Kim Kwang Soo is really retarded!!! I hope adding two more members won't screw their popularity. But, oh I wonder how will the public accept two new members. Oh, I'm praying for my seven angels!!! shalalapaula 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryuuzaki13 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Have a feeling that a trend of "adding new members" and slowly letting other members to "graduate" from the group will occur. It's plausible with how KKS thinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYP_Rash19 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I THINK THEY'RE ALREADY UNIQUE AS 7, why add more members? It'll look like the other 9-member gg's. They started as 5 then 6 then 7 then.. 9. But Let's see. Its not that I don't like it, just wondering about this news. Anyway, T-Ara is still T-Ara no matter what. Love T-ARAAAAAAA!!
