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.

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.

No choice now but to accept it

T-ara welcomes the addition of two new members

T-ara will be welcoming two new members to their group. One will be revealed on the 31st, while the other will be revealed this coming June.

Core Contents Media confirmed on the 23rd, “The newly added 8th member of T-ARA is 18 years old and possesses a great visual and talent. The new member will work with T-ara for their upcoming album starting this summer.”

The other new member grew up in the United States since she was 4 years old and will make her debut in the MV for T-ara’s upcoming single.

The two new members are described as having both a cute image and strong charisma with a tall height to match. T-ara stated, “Please look forward to our new members and our new single.”

T-ara is currently busy preparing for their upcoming concert tour in Japan and Thailand next month. On July 14th, T-ara will also be holding a fan meeting at Peace Hall in Kyung Hee University.

Uh..

http://en.korea.com/blog/enter/k-pop/the-9th-member-of-t-ara-unveiled-she-is-cute/

So now they are moving forward to child slavery?
Girl turned 14 this year. A 14-year-old can't do 2.5 hour sleep days.

Stryfe · « **Reply #1044 on:** May 23, 2012, 02:45:17 PM »

Haha man, 14 this year? Since a Korean source claims that, it has to be her Korean age, I guess?

So she'd be like, 12 or 13...

DioBrando · « **Reply #1045 on:** May 23, 2012, 04:27:16 PM »

Hah, just when I think I'm warming up to the idea, they throw this curve ball

14 years old...(let's hope that's a "normal" 14yo and not Korean age)...something about that just seems off. Most of the girls are around/approaching mid-20s, with the exception of Jiyeon and Hwayoung who are at least knocking on 20's door. A 14 year old addition would make the oldest member more than 10 years the elder of the new youngin...something about that is funny...I'd imagine that'd be about as awkward as throwing a child in a college course

On a brighter note (well, really, a darker note, but let's not sit here and encourage my shitty wordplay), it looks like Soyeon--at least temporarily--changed her hair color to what looks like...a really dark reddish black?

I like it <3

Whoa....14 years old (or 12/13 like Stryfe mentioned)

. Well it's not an official announcement from KKS so there's a chance she's not the ninth *crosses fingers*

So I was lurking the Diadem shoutbox and saw this

jonte t girl
2nd song definitely sounds like T-ara like the blogger mentioned. OOh getting me excited

DioBrando · « **Reply #1047 on:** May 24, 2012, 03:01:54 AM »

Wow, both songs actually sound...really good

.

I'm especially liking the T-ara song (obviously. Come on.) It seems they continue their apparent trend of borrowing some aspects of Britney Spears songs

. I ain't mad. Not sure if hearing it ahead of time kills the hype or multiplies it....probably multiplies it, since that choreography looked solid as hell and I'd much rather see T-ara doing it

Sadly, I doubt they can deliver it with as much feeling, and with as little pants. Which is unfortunate, really it is...

storyboard · « **Reply #1048 on:** May 24, 2012, 09:38:11 PM »

YES you knew it was coming...another mv for Round and round!

And aw looks like the vid of their leaked songs got deleted

.

shirenuファクトリー · « **Reply #1049 on:** May 24, 2012, 10:03:48 PM »

^ Less butt in this version, but they're so cute

I also liked the new songs, kinda glad it's gone so I won't be tempted to listen again :3

Since the T-ara song was a bit slower tempo(?) or more peaceful, whatever, it gave me some fairytale vibes

Of course, I doubt it will be anything super creative

DioBrando · « **Reply #1050 on:** May 25, 2012, 12:57:05 AM »

Saw this on reddit

edit: ah, didn't see the 2nd version for that MV. I'm surprised there's a 2nd version (I'm even surprised that surprised me)...Even as a sort of throw-away single they seem to have put more effort into this than they did with any of the Japanese promotion stuff

[12.05.30] T-ara's 9th member, 14-year Dani, to join T-ara in December

T-ara's new member Dani has been revealed.

T-ara's ninth member Dani is 14 years old and has been growing up in the United States since she was four. She is 167cm and slender and looks like the actress Olivia Hussey and Girls' Generation's Yuri.

Despite her charms of looking like a young girl, she has a strong charisma and a variety of skills that are attractive.

When T-ara's new album is released on July 7th, T-ara will be joined by an 8th member first for their schedules. In December, Dani, the 9th member, will join. Before then, she will meet fans by acting in T-ara's new song's music video.

Dani will join T-ara in December. The reason she is not joining her older sisters now is because she wants to practice more to make sure she's perfected all around before debuting or else she felt like she'd harm the group.

T-ara's 8th member has not been revealed yet, but she is known to be a 19-year old girl with both the looks and skills and boasts a height of 168cm. T-ara's 8th member will be revealed at a later date.

T-ara are working with popular choreography Jonte Moaning who has choreographed for world stars like Beyonce in the past. He introduced T-ara's new album comeback through a teaser trailer online.

Meanwhile, T-ara are preparing for a Thailand concert and Japanese tour in June and their fanclub inauguration on July 14th.

More info on the little girl they intend to throw into a group of grown women. (Yes that is indeed some bitterness you detected.)

and lol, I'm sure the Yuri comparisons will just THRILL everybody...you know, because a lot of those "group-specific" fans are oh so peaceful and not crazy at all...

shirenuファクトリー · « **Reply #1055 on:** May 30, 2012, 02:48:32 PM »

I kind of feel bad for this girl. It's definitely not her fault that any of this is happening, but I bet a lot of anger will be targeted at her as well.

She's cute, but I'm not really into Kpop for cute.

I've got a H!P full of kids, I don't need kids in my Kpop fandom...

DeathRealm · « **Reply #1056 on:** May 31, 2012, 02:33:23 AM »

Sooo young, 14 years old compared to the rest. Personally I don't think they need more members in the group but hey can't really do much about that. Hope everything goes smoothly.

zoolander · « **Reply #1057 on:** May 31, 2012, 11:51:39 PM »

Actually isn't she 12 in 'real' age.

I just hope people will give the new members a chance before judging. People always act like they don't like new members and it's the end of the world but when all is said and done deep down they really do like it.

Some Hyomin Bday greetings

lil Hyomin

All grown up

i still hope she does well and all, not just gonna rule her out as bad. Just that, in my own personal opinion, i think any group with 7 members is big enough, but yet again there's groups like akb48 and stuff ahahah.

Awww a surprise visit from Jiyeon's dad.
