Honestly, i didn't expect to see the day where i'll be typing out a post about T-ara
But oh wells. The day has come.
So basically you guys would have known it by now.
Yes, our precious Hwayoung have terminated her contract with CCM and will no longer be with T-ara.
Even broadcasting companies such as SBS would not want to call T-ara to appear on their shows anymore.
"A big surprised captured" when the SBS PD Ryu Cheolmin left a post on his Facebook, "Aigoo Hwayoungah. Ah this oppa will not reach out to T-ara in the future."
Ryu PD's remarks are in response to Core Contents Media's CEO Kim Kwangsoo announcing he is terminating Hwayoung's contract with T-ara, which is currently attracting an enormous amount of attention.
And also those sponsorship companies such as Tony Moly
Tony Moly said their phone-line is going crazy by people who won’t buy if T-ara is on it, but they canceled Hwayoung’s contract :/ Tony Moly is “embarrassed” by this situation and T-ara’s contract with them expires at the end of August

So as you guys can see. T-ara & CCM are in real deep shit.
Tony Moly have also started to cover their t-ara merchandise.
Also, K Queens have burned their t-ara albums and tore their posters, venting their hatred and disappointment towards T-ara.
And to think all this started out from the bullying rumors.
I had my own doubts about my rumors since there wasn't any LEGIT proofs.
I mean. Hyomin/the rest of the member's tweets could be referring to another case. Like those indirect tweets that makes 123456 people feel guilty?
Yea. That was my guess.
But then again....
Ever since rumors about T-ara member conflicts began circling online, netizens have been pooling together what they believe is proof of the bullying.
Posted on various online websites, netizen claim that T-ara has been bullying Hwa Young on various television shows, playing off their actions as a joke.
Several screen captures of the group show Hwa Young, sitting at a distance away from the group. One picture showed Hyo Min poking Hwa Young in the eye, while another showed Hyo Min covering Hwa Young away from the camera.
Others showed Eun Jung, forcefully stuffing a large rice cake into Hwa Young’s mouth, despite her scrunched up face. The other members laughed as this was going on.
When T-ara was featured for KBS’ Star Life Theater, Eun Jung revealed her personal discomfort and hesitation in adding one or two members to the group, believing that it could ruin the atmosphere of the team.
Also on the same show, Ji Yeon negatively remarked that she has never seen Hwa Young reading a book before and it’s for show since there is a camera.
While some of these claims by netizens seem forced to fit the situation, in light of the drama that has been happening, netizens are inclined to believe that some of the jokes that T-ara members played on Hwa Young during the broadcast were gradual hints that lead to the controversy that happened on July 30.
I admit that this article is a little suspicious, no?
And also recently:
Around 1650 this appeared on Eunjung’s Cyworld Diary
Everyone, I made her a wangtta. I’m sorry.
Wangtta = outcast/loner
So. Maybe the bullying rumors were true after all.
To be honest, i really, REALLY, want to believe that Hyomin, Eunjung Jiyeon and the other members are innocent. But with these evidences and CCM, it's not giving me any good reason to believe them.
I was honestly devastated upon hearing the news, considering the fact that T-ara is one of my top 3 favorite kpop group.
It would be a lie if i said that i'm still gonna support them full-heartedly.
Let's face it. It's hard to see T-ara the same way again like last time.
Though i'll still support them for their music, but i'll never stan them like how i did last time, sad to say.
I really think Hwayoung deserves to be in a better company. Cause right now, CCM is making SM look like an angel.
Hwayoung is truly an amazing rapper. And i'm sure her talent will be much recognized and will be put to good use.
HOWEVER, NOT ALL HOPE IS LOST
[12.07.30] Kim Kwangsoo, "There is a possibility for Hwayoung to re-join.."
Core Contents Media, who just have announced they terminated Hwayoung’s contract with T-ara after being with the group for 20 months.
Hwayoung, who joined the team later than the rest, has been the center of the hot topic of “being bullied” by other members.
T-ara fans think that this is wrong or are very shocked by the announcement. And now fans are rooting for the most desired situation: a peace between Hwayoung, T-ara and the agency so that she can return
On the 30th, Kim Kwangsoo said to Star News, “If Hwayoung truly realizes her wrongs, it’s possible to talk with the T-ara members and staff about her rejoining. Once again, this is if Hwayoung looks over her previous actions and self-reflects so she does not repeat the same behavior.
Clearly, the probability of this situation is low, but there is a small glimpse of a reverse situation happening. Right now, it’s left for Hwayoung to decide.

It's pretty retarded and nonsensical as to why Hwayoung would want to join back to a group that abuses her in
public and has to "self-reflect" upon her actions and apologizes when that poor girl merely injured her ankle.
Whatever it is, i'll still love & support Hwayoung no matter what her decisions are.
So let's not be butthurt and burn all our t-ara albums and posters, but to continue supporting Hwayoung and not send any hate mails to CCM/T-ara because i'm pretty sure thousands across the globe has already done so.
So for now. Let's just calmly wait for Hwayoung's response and see how CCM will still try to "save" the situation.
Like i said, i'm not going to go around throwing away my albums (ahem i still have my autographed Yayaya album with Hwayoung's signature IN YO FACE) and i'm still waiting for my Day by Day album to arrive because i'd paid good money for that.
Xoxo, Eezah ★~(◡‿◡✿)
