nathaniel Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 [12.05.23] T-ara coming back with eight members in early July Seven member girl group T-ara will comeback as eight members this summer. The seven members of T-ara: Eunjung, Hyomin, Soyeon, Qri, Boram, Jiyeon and Hwayoung, will comeback with a new album in Korea in the first week of July. This time around, they will gain one new member to promote as eight members but eventually become nine members. The new member who will join in July is a 3rd year high school student with both beauty and musical talent. It's also known that the other member is a 3rd year junior high school student. Core Contents Media commented, "We have decided on the two new members, but it's not a confirmation yet. Depending on how things out, a different member than what is planned now may join." In April, Core Contents Media's CEO announced the reorganization of the group by saying, "T-ara will gain two new members to become nine members." T-ara will gain one of their two new members this summer, and then later in the year a second member will officially join. The new member will appear introduced through T-ara's music video and plans to meet fans beforehand. On the 23rd, T-ara's agency said to Star News, "T-ara wants to have a fresh start this summer. As already stated, they'll become nine members, but first they'll first become a girl group with eight members." T-ara will work with their composers who have helped them create hits in the past including Cho Youngsoo and Shinsadong Tiger. T-ara's unique new music will return. Ahead of their comeback, T-ara are beginning their sold out tour in Japan in June. T-ara will perform as seven members at their Japanese concert tour beginning on June 18th in Nagoya, Japan. T-ara has became one of the national girl groups with their consecutive hits and plan to keep it coming. *** Source: http://news.nate.com.../20120523n08176 Translated by: Nathaniel @ Diadem misa5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy5ten Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I don't know how to react to this. First I don't agree with the addition of the members and now this. In my opinion, this is bull and that kks is toying around with the girls. Very saddening... 7-ara katherine11, klover, Daniel and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max___ Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 What a shame, KKS can't figure out to not mess with something that doesn't have anything wrong with it. Oh well. Well let's be sure to welcome the new members anyway, right? It's not their fault after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armanihaha Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I can't even , how are they going to solidify their fanbase if they keep going adding members ? they should focus on taking the underrated members under the spotlight so all of them have equal spotlight . winnieBG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeslieJoon143 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 KKS! Can you please stop with your stupid ideas. You are on your way to RUIN this group! Seven is pretty good enough for T-ARA. If adding member just to upgrading their talents and skills, you better focusing on Qri and Boram. You should explore new side of those two. Adding new member to eight or to nine or like a football team is not a good idea after all. Use your brain dude. Why fixing something that isn't broken? I'm trying not to be mean. You did it to Co-Ed, to 5 Dolls or SPEED or GAngKiz even with your biggest money maker T-ARA? So, adding new member will covering the absent member who actively in modelling or acting? Are you kidding me, KKS? If you want to add two new member, do it NOW! Why it must take till end of the year to reveal the new member? Are you afraid of being killed by someone like me? I'm totally getting sick with your stupid ideas. NadiaNazira1199, jodyngo, blackpearl and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huevogro Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Happy about T-ARA's comeback cause that means new music but i dont and would NEVER like the 9 member idea. In fact I sure I'm going to hate the 2 new members even now I can feel the hate. For me T-ARA = 7QUEENS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

park1jy Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I love T-ara I will just have to accept the reality of the new members and wish for the best, fighting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepystudent Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Total BS. I thought they said that the new members aren't younger than the current maknaes. Well whatever. Those two better be as good and even better than what they're saying they are. This kingdom only needs 7 Queens. Don't need two extra wannabes/fakes sacrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CitizenCL Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Why are the news feeds not puting a smile on my face lately? Give me some positivity, CCM! As inevitable as it will be, I hope July doesn't come so soon. Boo-urns! katherine11 and glazella 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZuRRa Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 The new member who will join in July is a 3rd year high school student with both beauty and musical talent. How old is a 3rd year high school student in Korea? Pwahaha,both beauty and talent.I'm pretty sure KKS exaggerated this a little bit.Whoa,they don't even officially debut yet with T-ara but they already gain HUGE amount of haters and antis just because of that scumbag that keep ruining T-ara. T-ara wants to have a fresh start this summer AND T-ara has became one of the national girl groups with their consecutive hits and plan to keep it coming. Heh,please don't use to the word T-ara.They don't even know this whole addition thing and yet,you,KKS said they want a fresh start this summer.I bet all of them are furious right now and as a leader,I'm sure this really burden Soyeon for having to cope with the new members,new lines distribution,new choreographies AND less income for having to divide amongst 8-9 members.Why fix something that isn't broken?Oh wait,KKS never do things that make sense. They will meet fans beforehand?Well,all I can hope is there's no one who will throw rotten eggs,tomatoes,cursing and pulling hair at the new members.

xkyelove Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I really don't know how to react to this... I still want jiyeon to be the groups' maknae, but it looks like she's not going to be any more.. I just hope the 2 new additional members will work hard not to pull T-ara down and also to appease the fans who are shocked and are probably going crazy right now because of the member line-up change. Still, an 8 or 9 member t-ara is still T-ara and Jiyeon is still my forever mankae. T-ARA FIGHTING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeya Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 its not about jiyeon will be forever maknae or what-_- the reality lol. even if u think jiyeon is forever maknae. the new member is younger than her. yeah. ccm is a bit weird, ccms tried to be surprising for the fans, but i meat its kinda stupid. they dont realize fans reaction abt it. they need to fiure it out before making a decision. always adding member is like they're not serious with this grop. adding hwayoung is enough, since she's really talented. if they add more, what'll their fans think? queens probably will stop like them. i'm not wishing that happen. but yeah... its like coed school. they're adding members, make a sub-group, 2 members out, adding new members, blablabla... its weird. asdfghjkl, ccm you're annoying. please just 7-ara, dont make it 8-ara or 9-ara u,u and their fanmeet, i hope the new member wont get hurt.

dell Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Ohhh i really disappointed with CCM why they must add 2 new member?? I'm feel awkward that t-ara become 8 or 9 member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrizty Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I really dont know what to say. The company will always want to changed T-ara.But I know Jiyeon and Hwayoung cant always be the maknae but they always had been remain as the maknae if the company just stick to the original 7 members. I dont know how to react.I can just only wished them for the best as long as those two dosent hurt our T-ara girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WooRi Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Wait I noticed this: T-ara has became one of the national girl groups with their consecutive hits and plan to keep it coming. Wait.. So, Korean press, recognize them as 1 of national groups like Snsd & also KARA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YSY {T-ara FTW} Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Way to ruin something that doesn't need fixing. CCM do know that by adding the members up to 9, some sones will start bashing T-ara saying that they are "copying" SNSD? Aside from that, T-ara is already perfect. The addition of Hwayoung was fine, because she really is talented (although I really see it pointless at that point of time), but that took away many rap lines from Eunjung and Hyomin. This shows the problem that with more members, the lines and screen time for each member will be even further lessen. WHY MUST THEY ADD TWO MORE MEMBERS??!
