caption: 새해를 맞아 오랜만에 인사드려요. 잘지내고 계시죠?
저희는 작년을 마지막으로 10년이라는 긴 시간 동안 함께 했던 회사와는 이별을 하게 됐어요. 그치만 걱정은 마세요.
아직 구체적으로는 말씀 드릴 순 없지만 멤버들은 앞으로도 어디있든 언제든 함께 할 수 있을 거에요.

멤버들 각자 오랜만에 자기시간을 갖고 여유도 부려보며, 어떻게 하면 앞으로 팬분들과 함께 할 수 있는 자리를 많이 마련 할 수 있을지 진중히 고민해 보기로 했어요. 물론 개인적으로도 팬 여러분 많이 그리고 자주 찾아 뵐 예정이에요.
누군가로부터 사랑 받는 것이 당연하다고만 생각했던 어렸던 그 때 부터,
사랑 받지 못 할 것을 알면서도 다시 시작 하는 지금까지
많은 가르침을 준 그동안의 시간에
다시 한 번 감사하게 되네요.
또 다른 시작에 설레기도 하지만
10년이란 긴 세월동안 동고동락했던 회사와의 이별에
마치 오랜시간 만난 연인과 헤어진 후
바로 또 다른 사랑을 시작 하기엔 겁이 나듯
조심스러운 부분이 있는것은 사실이에요.

그리고 팬 분들께는 비록 끝은 아니지만
일단 10년이란 시간 아낌없이 응원 해 주신 것에 진심으로 감사하단 말 꼭 드리고 싶었어요. 그리고 모두 고생하셨습니다!

조만간 좋은 소식으로 찾아 올테니 팬 여러분들 너무 염려말고 기다려주세요.

그럼 2018년엔 하시고자 하는 일 모두 이루시고
새해 복 많이 많이 받으세요!

Translation by Diadem:
I’m greeting you after a long time. Are you well?

We have separated with the company that has managed us for 10 years. But please don’t worry. I can’t tell you the details yet but the members can still be together, anytime, anywhere.

The members are all taking personal time off time enjoying life while thinking about how to keep seeing our fans. As a member (myself), I plan to keep on meeting you.

From nobody to someone who receives so much love, we took the love for granted, and went through a difficult time while knowing it would be hard for us to receive any more love, but we began again. We learned a lot from the difficult times and we feel grateful.

Although we are anticipating a new beginning, separating with the company that has been managing us for 10 years is like breaking up with a lover and you’re about to find a new love, and that makes you feel scared and cautious.

Also, to our fans, this isn’t the end. In the 10 years you have been supporting us non-stop, we are sincerely thankful for that. All of you have worked really hard!

We will greet you soon with good news so please don’t worry too much while waiting for it. I wish for all your new year wishes to come true, happy new year!

MBK is still holding on to the T-ARA name and concept
According to them T-ARA didn't disband... ok

[sadistic-dance.livejournal.com]

The girls need to comeback with that Highlight realness tbh.

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

didn’t they say “its up to the girls/members to decide the future” they were basically respectful (surprised tbh) like they were to davichi and let them go free

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

All I saw is 'Members are leaving but T-ARA is not disbanding' with fans commenting that it's probably a beast 2
Meaning the agency keeps the name
I mean if they don't that's cool, but MBK has been an ass since day 1 so, idk

[sadistic-dance.livejournal.com]

Queen of bops. I wonder if Boram and Soyeon will rejoin.
