To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules; - 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.
- Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up. |

Nice. I especially like Zion T. He shines in every song he's featured in. Also has the weirdest, most interesting wardrobe & hairstyles, yet still pulls it off like a boss.

Well things like these have made most of the anti-t-ara atmosphere dissapear.
So I dont think they are gonna have any issues with appearing on tv/tv shows after they make their korean comeback, only time will tell I guess, but I highly doubt it You're delusional if you believe that. Nobody was willing to put them on major dramas; most if not all of their sponsors have dropped them. Anybody that doesnt follow kpop news closely, or anything T-ara related, would just instantly connect anything about them to bullying. In fact, I'm willing to bet a lot of people that frequent this thread still have large reservations about the authenticity of those exonerating articles. .
Haha its been some time but just want to prove how wrong you are about tv shows not wanting them.
First It was Hyomin in Vitamin, then it was Eunjung as a MC for show Champion, then all of them in Let's go team, and now they will be in Emergency Escape, appart from all that they are going to have their own Japanese show called Princess T-ara.
Expect them to appear in even more variety shows after their comeback.
Now tell me bro, who's the delusional one here? I guess some people are dumb enough to belive every single thing knetizens write without making any research lol.
Also Nana is fit!

Problem is that none of those show are major, and Japan don't give a fuck-but no one was ever talking shit about their shit in japan. Only show I've heard of is Champion, cause idols is on it, but that's not a major music shows and even the major ones are seeing ratings fall. Unless by "lets go team" you mean Dream Team, then that's like 1 major show in half a year when they used to be on fucking everything. And that still doesn't touch endorsements.
No group is really that big in Japan anyway, except for DBSK (in their respective groups now), and KARA. Everyone else has moderate amounts of success but not the "WE SO MAJOR HALLYU" that they claim, and even among those middle-of-the-pack groups I don't see T-ara charting quite as high as some others.

You are missing the whole point here, I counldnt care less about how popular certain tv shows are, I rarely watch any of them.
The reason of my post was because some guy said I was delusional for believeing they would appear on tv shows, well guess what, he's wrong, just wanted to point that out.
Everyone knows you dislike t-ara but you seriously need to stop getting so emotional everytime the word t-ara is mentioned, its getting ridiculous.

I think he was referring to really popular shows/dramas. You know its pretty bad if Eunjung got dropped from a drama. Neither of those two actually hate t-ara. They are just stating their fall in popularity. They went from being one of the most popular girl groups to having to do something in Japan while everyone in Korea forgets that whole mess. You could make your point about them being on unpopular shows and whatnot but being on a show that's not watched or unpopular is basically the same as not being on a tv show at all if no one actually sees you. Someone would have to actually cite the ratings for these shows though for more of an accurate representation.
|
Yeah eunjung got droped from a drama but then the producers realized they made a wrong decision and apologized to her.
T-ara was in a though spot back then, but now? not so muh.
Again, what I was trying to do is to show that those who said they wouldnt appear in variety shows were wrong. which I did.
Whether its popular or unpopular shows is irrelevant in this particular discussion, but if you want to discuss about that go ahead

You're forgetting SNSD bro, who outsells Kara in Japan easily.
and I think T-ara will do fine, netizens don't represent anything but the dumbest members of society. Maybe not as well as they did before because their scandal was huge and got into the general public, but I doubt it's like 'game over' for them, but we'll see. Lots of competition coming up all at the same time.

holy shit talk about grudge holding
I guess if we really wanted to nitpick: they haven't come back yet, nor have they made it back into major varieties or talk shows (strong heart, inf challenge etc). anyways, I concede the point.

yep who cares if they appear on a show nobody watches or if one of them is MC for a music show which has even lesser viewer ratings than the mainstream music shows ( whose ratings are already horrendously low).
Pretty no one from t-ara is going to appear on shows that actually matter ( running man, IC, strong heart, happy together)

Still no major endorsements since then though, thats where a lot of money comes from. Perhaps companies are still wary of investing money into T-ara in the long term

what? I barely post here, don't know what you are talking about.
And no I didnt do that to defend t-ara's name, I responded to his older post to prove him wrong, since I was called delusional, comprende??
in other words I just wanted to get the satisfaction of him admitting that he was the one who was wrong, now that he did that, I have nothing else to discuss here, peace.

Yeah it was late. SNSD counts too.
@DJwhatever lol at thinking I hate T-ara. If you spent any time in this thread you'd know otherwise.

I agree SNSD is always doing great in Japan but they don't outsell Kara.
Kara has been pretty much the most successful kpop group in Japan, SNSD comes close though.

inb4 Moonwrath argues it's more sold on a per release scale.

lol those numbers don't seem to make any sense, especially when you aren't even sourcing these seemingly random totals. DBSK slaying everyone in that first thing and not in the 2nd at all? And Kara has never been the most successful kpop group in Japan and they will never come close to DBSK, before or after their split (they have actually become more popular in Japan since they split). I don't really know crap about SNSD's sales in Japan but from what I can remember seeing in the past they seemed atleast equal to Kara in Japanese sales.
