T-ARA Hyomin Celebrates birthday with a brightly lit cake!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HYOMIN UNNIE! MAY YOU ALWAYS KEEP ON ROCKING KPOP WORLD!!

T-ara threw member Hyomin a birthday party by bringing a brightly lit up, beautiful cake to her so that she could make a wish and blow out the candles!

As it’s May 30 in Korea, T-ara’s Hyomin turned 25-years-old and celebrated her birthday, revealing her thoughts on beginning a new year to Kyungje Today.

She said, “In the past, I was very excited and liked it, but now I think about my age once again, so I feel more and more weight on my shoulders.  I feel more burden and more responsibility, so I’m not very happy, but I think I’m still as excited as always.

Hyomin then revealed she most looked forward to turning 34 as that was the age she wanted to get married!  As for the words she disliked hearing, Hyomin chose, “How old are you again?” whereas there were no words she particularly wanted to hear.

She revealed that while her mother was pregnant, her mother had dreamed she was holding a basket full of snakes from which a particularly big serpent ascended to the heavens. As for her most memorable birthday, Hyomin said, “When I was young, I invited all of my neighborhood friends to my house where we did trivial things like eat yummy food and had a party.  I think that was the most fun.”

Hyomin also said she wanted a break as her birthday present so she could go on vacation right away.  In the past, she had wanted a younger sibling, but that never happened.

She was asked which star she wanted to hear “Happy birthday!” from and chose Lee Hyori, saying, “Maybe it’s because I researched and monitored her the most while preparing for my solo album, but only her face keeps coming to my mind.

T-ARA ‘Sexy Love’ Official Music Video (Dance Version)

OMo!~ I am so damn Lovin’ this!!! I Absolutely L.O.V.E this single!! ‘Sexy Love’…U simply ROCK! I never thought that after all the negativity surrounding T-ARA since 2 months, I will be able to love these girls & their songs anymore…But I am super happy that they proved me wrong! The QUEENS are back with a BANG!! About the track ‘Sexy Love’, it’s being composed by the current kpop market favourite, Shinsadong Tiger who has also composed their earlier super duper hits including my last fave of theirs ‘Lovey-Dovey’. Maybe that’s the primary reason, this song somewhat has the similar catchiness & beats…To be honest I knew from the first time i saw the teaser…that I am gonna be absolutely ADDICTED to it! & the hell I AM!! About the MV…well not much…has the usual unusual T-ARA concept which many ‘netizens’ think is a photocopy of SNSD & the Wonder Girls which I feel is ridiculous…I just wanna ask these people…’How the hell do you guys think will new concepts spring up? If you do not like these girls then please keep your mouth shut rather than uttering such nonsense!’…(Ok maybe I wen to be too harsh!) I hope I haven’t offended anyone of you guys! mianhada if I have! Anyways guys do check out the MV & let me know your opinions asap!  Njoy! 🙂

 

P.S- Good news for you guys! This single is gonna have 4 different versions of Music Videos! yeah you heard it right! 4 versions! So stay tuned! 🙂

T-ARA to return in September with ‘Mirage’ album!

Omo!~ Don’t these girls get tired…like ever??:O

Earlier reports that stated T-ara might be making a comeback next month have been confirmed.

The group will release their 7th mini-album ‘Mirage‘ on September 3rd KST. Agency Core Contents Media announced on August 30th, “The title track is ‘Sexy Love’, the fourth song [created for T-ara] by Shinsadong Tiger and Choi Kyu Sung after ’Bo Peep Bo Peep‘, and ‘Roly-Poly‘.”

CCM further mentioned that ‘Mirage’ was originally planned for release in early August, but because of the recent controversy, T-ara’s comeback was delayed by three weeks.

The agency also explained why the T-ara members had kept quiet until they released an apology letteryesterday: “The reason why T-ara stayed silent the past month is because the issue was a personal matter between the members. However, misunderstandings are causing other misunderstandings, and the T-ara members sincerely apologized for personally causing the controversy and creating misunderstanding.”

“T-ara and Hwayoung had a meeting where they resolved their differences, understood each other, and apologized. We’ve decided that we can no longer delay the comeback because of this issue in which not one person is the victim, not one person is the wrongdoer, and misunderstandings keep piling up.”

CCM concluded, “We once again lower our heads and apologize for causing disorder and misunderstanding among so many people, and we promise to [never let an issue like this arise again].”

T-ara will also be holding concerts overseas in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan and more from mid-September to November.

T-ARA releases handwritten apology letter to fans

Finally! I feel they should have done this way back…things would have not turned so ugly then…anyways better late than never.

The members of T-ara, who have been going through a rough time due to rumors of alleged bullying involving former member Hwayoung, released a handwritten apology letter to fans on their official website on August 29 KST.

The contents are as follows:

“We’ve written this after a lot of thought. The past month has felt much longer than our trainee days and the days we’ve promoted receiving our fans’ love. First of all, we sincerely apologize for causing concern and disappointing so many people. We feel that it was very foolish of us to not have resolved differences of opinion between the members and to have aired our personal issues in a public space. We’re reflecting deeply on our actions.”

“We sincerely apologize for acting thoughtlessly. We’ve been troubled every day by the thought that all of this could’ve been avoided if we had understood each other and compromised more and if we had acted more maturely. When we look back, we all worked hard together for the same dream and overcame obstacles, and it was really painful to see all the good times we’ve had together being cast in a negative light.”

T-ara also had a message concerning Hwayoung as well: “We also think that Hwayoung has been going through a very hard time after being misunderstood as [ostracized]. We were surprised by the outcome, which no one thought of or wanted, and we’re disappointed that we can’t all be together now. We only hope that Hwayoung will no longer face [hurtful things like this].”

The letter went on, “We apologize to everyone for causing concern with this recent issue and disappointing those who’ve loved our music. We feel that this hard time has been a lesson for us. We’re supposed to give people strength, and we’ve now learned how much responsibility is on our shoulders. We’ve also realized that we must act responsibly and seriously.”

“For our parents who live for us, for our fans who’ve continued to stay by our side, for the people who listen to our music… and for those who we’ve worried and disappointed, we’ll work harder to receive your forgiveness instead of being frustrated. We genuinely apologize. We also hope that you give your support and love to Hwayoung, who must be having a harder time than we are. We too will always support Hwayoung. From all of T-ara.”
