Unichan's probably been crying in bed since the announcement.

SC2 has been going down the drain ever since development where they introduced a bonus damage system instead of a reduced damage system but that's for another thread.
If they revert T-Ara to Absolute First level, it might be worth it in the end. Have faith! CCM has made so many bad decisions with T-Ara that eventually one of them is gonna have to be good!

I hope they don't change the core member (Eunjung, Jiyeon, Soyeon and Hyomin). The rest are up for talk but those four should not change. At all. Sadly all we can do is wait and see.

I could understand it if T-ara weren't still on their A game, but they are the most consistently good group in kpop, it just makes no sense at all.

2 extra members? Completely changing their style? These suits have no idea wtf they are doing.

like look at other groups
1) WG - no one likes lim
2) SNSD - same all the time
3) AS - no one likes graduation system
4) T-ara - no one likes hwayoung

so bad idea

If they remove Soyeon I would stop listening to new T-ara music.

I don't like T-ARA, so I don't really care...will be interesting to see what kind of music they produce from now on, though.

I'd hate to see T-ara go like this. Not saying it's the end of the world for them, I'm sure it's not, but... are these kinds of changes really necessary? What will happen to them now? Hopefully their songs will keep the level they have today, but I'm sceptical I'm afraid. I'm a little sad right now :/

cannot agree to point 4,
if someone has to go, it should be the dwarf.

but still, changing up the members of succesful groups just seems so weird.

But...what if...just what if...they added another member then created 2 sub groups? One with Soyeon, Hyomin, Ham and PJY? Surely that is a compromise that could end up being decent.

No, nothing is decent here. This is the dumbest idea I've ever heard. No good can come of it.

edit: yes, I'm mad. I think the T-ara works really well just like they are now. Sigh, CCM is trying to do gimmicky crap like this to boost popularity, but I think it's going to be a horrible mistake.

More members means less screentime, bad decision.
Boram has most reason to leave tbh. I don't mind her like so many others but she's getting to an unfavorable age (same goes for Qri but that's her only reason) - Isn't active enough in the group (hardly any lines / screentime) - Parents are well known singers and she is not performing to their expectations. Also, even in the Davichi We were in love, she wasn't chosen to sing ><

Or let's have some faith and hope that in the end, they will only add 2 more members and not replace at all

I absolutely disagree with changing a groups' members. I didn't know about T-ara before Hwayoung was added, so I never had any trouble with that. But the new members are probably going to be far less popular, at least for a while.

As far as T-ara goes, I'm disappointed, but as long as Hyomin stays, which I think is pretty likely, I'm not going to be too upset about it. Adding some more vocal talent could possibly be a good thing, although lately they seem to be doing more gimmicky stuff.

Changing a group at least once seems inevitable in the business, but a revolving door (WG, AS, T-ara) just makes me lose interest in any group. This is all post-debut of course. Groups change 50x pre-debut.

Well, there's this one group that is still the same since their debut 4 years ago, and as far as I know, they are pretty successful. Sadly, I can't argue having a consistent "lineup" it is a common thing though.
