It's at least as likely that the bullying is all manufactured by random netizen gossip and the real villian is KKS.

Consider how notorious KKS is for being a dick manager, overworking groups, and his comments about how Kara and all their supporters should be permanently barred from the industry for their lawsuit.

Consider the statement about how KKS wants to force internal strife in T-ara to maintain "competitiveness" to make them "better."

Now, consider what if the T-ara tweets were made out of fear of getting screwed into even worse working conditions because of Hwayoung's injury and KKS' perception of her "lack of effort." May have even been done solely to make them appear to KKS that they weren't "slacking."

Puts an entirely different spin on everything. It's time to let the drama go.

I dunno. I haven't liked most of their stuff. Only Raina is a strong vocal, so everything ends up being so-so vocally overall and them trying too hard to act cute but usually coming off as childish.

There really aren't any competing sub-units, though. Everything else has generally just been for a single song or promotion cycle.

Yeah, this sounds like the most plausible reality to me. With perhaps some minor strife erupting due to injuries, changes in schedule, etc. But imo, any bullying that happened was a trickle-down from KKS. CCM is rotten at the core.

So, I finally got around to watch the Crayon Pop that's been the theme in this thread for a while, and it's clearly:

Ellin > So Yul > Gummi > Twins

You clearly have good taste.

I just wish people would stop lumping the twins together, clearly ChoA > Way.

Someone make the age poll into a bar graph plz. Im more of a visual person. Also shame on people lumping the twins together in crayon pop ranking. They are both beautifully unique.

lol yes ^ he knows. Although Way > choa. But w/e. The point is they are clearly different.

It was intended to be a histogram of a sort, but apparently TL's "always display results in this order" checkbox doesn't actually work.
