I was right to still hate Chris Brown and I'm right to hate him in the future...
Anyway
I've decided that CCM is like the EA Games of Kpop. The Worst Company, but has that one product I'm addicted to (T-ara for CCM, The Sims for EA) and thus am sort of forced to stick with it and live with their shitty decisions so I can still enjoy the part of it that I like (seeing my girls, raising my Sims).
Someone said on reddit tho, "the girls are strong". And hell. After all the shit they've been through, they have to be. How many others would've cracked under the pressure during the bullying scandal, or earlier Jiyeon's webcam stuff, or now this American BS thing... Some people keep saying T-ara should split up, but after what they've had to endure together, I feel it would almost be a waste. Like, they waded through mud just to give up? Especially when there's no guaranteed future, yet they still have die-hard fans for T-ara. I think splitting up is something that you do when you're a rookie and there's a chance to attract more fans with a fresh concept, but not something to do when you already have an established concept. Something like that would only work if you were near god status (I think there was a Kpop boygroup that went through something like it, but I'm horrible with anything boypop). I just hope the girls keep on being strong even if it might now feel like there's always something going wrong. 
At least the Japan tour in September should give them something to look forward to. They'll be with people who love them. And I'm sure the fans will think of something to send their love.
Amen to that. That pool party performance is a huge bummer...it's especially troubling considering how amazing they look...I can't NOT watch it, but it really sucks seeing how that went down. There are other fancams of it where you can see the first performance where Chris Brown cut them off--presumably in fear that they were losing the crowd:
Don't get me wrong, Chris Brown has proven himself to be a dirtbag on numerous occasions, but this situation here wasn't really his fault. I guess the blame always just falls with KKS/CCM. Getting the girls to perform at a venue like this was a ridiculous idea, and I feel similarly with regard to their entire little US adventure. It might seem like a good idea (for anyone with dollar signs in their eyes), but aside from being totally random, it was horribly executed. I can't even blame a drunk Vegas crowd for this...they were pretty decent, especially considering they had no idea what the fuck they were witnessing--and one drunken bitch throwing out the phrase "boo get off the stage" doesn't really amount to anything.
It was a tepid response, which beats an overwhelmingly negative response, but I imagine it was still difficult and embarrassing for them. If nothing else, I'm glad that it seems people are starting to have some sympathy for them. Say what you will about them (or any idols, really), but they work fucking
hard. T-ara in particular has gone through enough bullshit already, so I honestly just hope people get off their shit and let them be...I've ranted about this numerous times before but it really does still blow my mind how people can be so nasty towards a group of young women for something they probably didn't even do...like, how do you decide to do that without any concrete proof? Bah, let me not get into that again, anyway. Let's just stare at some fiddle gifs.
