7-ARA R.I.P

[miyozari.livejournal.com]

Following the news that Core Contents Media would be announcing T-ara‘s new changes on April 6th, more details have surfaced from sources within the agency.

According to Review Star, a representative of Core Contents Media told them over the phone, “It’s true that T-ara will become a nine member group. Two members will be added, and we will reveal the details on April 6th.”


With the addition of two members, the current seven member group will become a nine member group. The only other nine member girl group at the moment is Girls’ Generation, and thus has caused many questions to surface about whether this change is to further compete against Girls’ Generation.

There is also speculation that the two member addition was decided on after seeing the group’s potential in the Japanese market, and in hopes to further increase their reputation.

Earlier on March 14th, CEO Kim Kwang Soo had stated, “In April, there are big potential member changes for T-ara.” Having talked about taking out members within the group, many had wondered just what kind of change would be taking place. With his elaboration on the issue of removing members, fans and industry officials were surprised to hear that the member changes would not consist of swapping out original members, but instead adding new members.

The source within the agency also revealed, “The new member(s) that will be added are trainees within the agency. There was a previous speculation that they would join Co-Ed, but that’s not true.”

ugh they were fine as they were.
I bet he thought he was hilarious, threatening to change members,
he was never gonna get rid of members, he just wanted to create ~hype~

didn't work, just makes you a dick.

omg what is this stupid nonsense. no one even cares about half of the members (I like T-ARA though, it's just that for srs no1currs about half of them and they want to add TWO MORE?)

[ryousan26.livejournal.com]

Nine Muses is a 8-member group as of now. And yeah, I don't know what the hell got into their CEO. =__= But this is obviously A LOT better than removing members *cough*Qri*cough*Boram*cough*

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Which potential in the Japanese market? Aren't they flops in Japan?

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Bo Peep was a hit but the rest have done poorly. Imo their management failed them, they should debuted earlier and they've done nothing but release remakes.

[episkia.livejournal.com]

what is this supposed to do, cover for the members who are busy with other schedules? l o l it doesn't even work with suju tbh the stage is empty when they're missing even one member (from their nine rn). most of the members of t-ara probably already feel they're shadowed by the more famous ones, isn't it just going to get worse?

[drfaith101.livejournal.com]

Pointless shit

[reddiish.livejournal.com]

It sucks. They were better as 6 with their first album. Now it's a joke. Even with more girls, only 2 or 3 of them will sing as always. Byebye the others, bye Boram who never sings one line, welcome to the new backup dancers (YAYY). Loenent, CCM, whatever: I hate you. You, and your T-ara propaganda. You're the worst company ever.

[cherrypark.livejournal.com]

Loenent is just a music distributor (they work with pretty much every company except SM and YG). CCM is who manages T-ara.

[rabu-parade.livejournal.com]

Idgaf. I'm just happy they're not getting rid of any of them.

[in-noctem.livejournal.com]

Are the two members gonna be the one on that Singer and Trainee show (which Ailee was on and slayed her competition)?

[devilsatin.livejournal.com]

sooeun is in the new group that's debuting, but ahreum isn't. so it's possible that she could be joining i guess

[hellicoptajuuce.livejournal.com]

but...the 7 dont even do jack on stage anyways, why would you add more zombies also i dont under CCM and its insane 34178956234785 MVs for one fucking song seriously

[yingmoon26.livejournal.com]

exactly. i already found it pointless to add qri why on earth are they adding more members

[herro-kitty.livejournal.com]

as long as they're keeping the current members iduncurr, i hope the new girls won't fug up flawfree 7-ara

[charlieu.livejournal.com]

What about Boram? Is that the short fugly one?

[bumie.livejournal.com]

this make me angry tbh

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

You wish lol

[uniqlos.livejournal.com]

maybe they'll do it like the super exhausted girls get to lurch around like zombies in the back and the new girls will be more energetic.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Maybe he should first try to make public know the names of all the current members before adding even more nugus.

[konichiwacobra.livejournal.com]

that's what they need...more members. lol stop.

[timetobegin.livejournal.com]

And the CCM ceo proves himself to be a huge cunt once again. What is even the point in this? SMH.

[nightfrost75.livejournal.com]

I wish Korea would learn, adding members is in direct correlation to the decline of a group. *Cough*After School*Cough*
Can you think of any group already over 6 members who willing added members and got better?

[woohyun.livejournal.com]

OMG Latrice <3 i lol when Kenya went home again XD

[sweetcherrytree.livejournal.com]

NO STOP WHY D: D: D:

[rikli.livejournal.com]

it's going to be a big big BIG mistake

[threebits.livejournal.com]

the two new members are already getting hate and we don't even know them yet, poor them.

i like hwayoung now but the T-ara with six-members is still the best imo.

[runandtelldat.livejournal.com]

This is beyond pointless.

[lovely4evr.livejournal.com]

What will adding two new members do?
