Girl group T-ara confessed their complaints towards the president of their agency.
T-ara, who have recently been sweeping the music charts with their song ‘Lovey Dovey‘, revealed their sorrows that was hidden underneath their bright image. Three of T-ara’s members, Soyeon, Boram, and Hyomin publicly confessed their complaints towards the president of their agency.
On the January 27th broadcast of jTBC‘s ‘Quiz Show Idol Premiere‘, T-ara was asked if there was anything they wanted to say to their boss, to which Soyeon drew a stern expression and went towards the camera, grabbing Hyomin and Boram with her.
Soyeon stated, “Since our debut, we have never had a vacation, and in the past year, we haven’t even had a single day of rest.”
MC Kim Gura then asked, “Comparatively, aren’t there members that don’t have as many activities going on?” to which the members stated, “Even at this time, the other members are in attendance for their schedules. Somewhere, they’re all doing something. Everyday, every member has a schedule to attend.”
These days, girl groups are at the top of the Hallyu wave in Asia and are even starting to receive love calls from around the world. However, with the rise of their fame, the girls have no choice but to attack an even more hectic, killer schedule.
After hearing their complaints, netizens stated, “Now, you will be promoting in other countries by traveling on the plane, so you probably won’t have any time to sleep because of the time difference” and “This is because you guys are so successful. This is a happy worry in the mist of all the rookie girl groups who disappear without ever making their mark.”

Doesn't take much to look after your artist you know. Maybe pimp another group out so you're not completely reliant on one band?

Date: 2012-01-28 06:17 pm (UTC)Honestly that's one of the biggest things I've seen about Kpop. If you take any kind of extended break you will not come back as popular as you were unless you are at the VERY VERY top.

Date: 2012-01-28 06:19 pm (UTC)RP in Copacabana sold about 24,000, which is approximately half of what JTW did (52,000).
Funky Town's sales aren't up yet, but it's currently on top of the weekly ranking, and I'd guess it'll sell better than RPC did.
