Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.

Is it confirmed? My guess is they didn't think she is marketable on her own to Koreans, due to being a halfbreed as it were, regardless of vocal talent.
Look at all the foreign singers of Korean descent they drag from around the world. Consider for every Ailee there are 1000 black American girls with that kind of voice. I see why they might want her in a group, just wish it was not T-ara.

Well, if she is as good as they say vocal wise, CCM might try and mold her into a solo artist or the next SeeYa/Davichi ballad group which would seem more likely, and she would just recieve atleast 2 more years of training(debuting at about 16-17), I really doubt theyl add a 14year old to T-ara, I mean I can see her doing loly poly or something, but not Cry Cry or IGCBOY.
Either way, I don't think it would be a very good fit.

Why they would spell it 섀넌 instead of 샤넌 is a mystery to me. Sounds like how a yank would pronounce it. "Shaay-non".
From the US, we would pronounce it like 샤넌 too, or at least I would. It is kind of weird unless she actually does pronounce her name like that.
oh shit I remember watching some yt videos about that girl a while back. she wasn't that bad vocally considering her age, but voice changes and other factors could be different now. I remember thinking she was going to be attractive when she got older.
I'd be ok with this decision if this member adding business was 3 years in the future.
Kim Kwang Soo, CEO of Core Contents Media, said, “I want to raise Shannon like the second BoA. She has a lot of potential and talent.”
why not solo her ~_~
'cause it's much easier and or cheaper for them to get their trainees out into existing groups with established fan base. Plus it has the effect of increased publicity (same as rumours that member(s) may be leaving)
Wow, first look I took at her and I thought she looked like an alien... facial features look kinda wide hahaha I guess best of luck to her...? and someone said she's half Korean?.. what's her other half.
