[NEWS]T-ara to make early ‘Music Bank’ comeback next week with new concept

Girl group T-ara will be making a comeback on November 18th through KBS 2TV ‘Music Bank‘!
Originally, the girls’ comeback date was set to be on November 25th, but the wait has been shortened to November 18th. T-ara will return to the stage with their new track, “Cry Cry“.
Core Contents Media explained, “We were planning to release “Cry-Cry” and “Lovey-Dovey” at the same time, but the two songs have completely different concepts from each other. We feared that the public would become confused and therefore, decided to delay “Lovey-Dovey” to next month.”
The label company also shared that T-ara will be throwing away their cute side, shown in “Roly Poly” and will be revealing a new concept that is much more charismatic and tough.
Check out the teaser for “Cry Cry” below.
[NEWS]T-ara to release their mini album and comeback on the 18th

They will also release their brand new mini album "Black Eyes" on the 18th, instead of the original date of the 25th.
In addition to that, they will show two completely different sides of them with "Cry Cry" and "lovey-dovey". Originally they were going to promote them at the same time, but have made a last minute final decision to promote "lovey-dovey" a month later starting on December 3rd because of their two incredibly distinct concepts.
Hyomin's 11-character abs have also attracted attention from the "Cry Cry" concept photos released. She has been preparing to showcase her 11-character abs by training for it over 100 days which she previously revealed through her Twitter.
T-ara showed a cute side of them with their retro hit "Roly-Poly", but will show a tough and charismatic charming side of them with "Cry Cry".

[NEWS]T-ara's notice about Japanese activities
T-ara's Japanese debut song, "Bo Peep Bo Peep" debuted at #1 on the Oricon weekly charts on it's first week of release. After charting in the top 10 for three consecutive weeks, on October 18th, T-ara have sold a total of 65,818 copies. They have the high possibility of being able to sell over 100,000 copies.
Japanese fans have asked "are there going to be no Japanese promotions for the song 'Roly-Poly' after it was revealed that the follow-up song would be 'yayaya' in Japanese and the Korean version of Roly-Poly being included in the single album as well.
T-ara's agency Core Contents Media recently said, "It isn't definite that we do not plan to have activities for 'Roly-Poly' in Japan, we only added in the Korean version as a b-side for now. We have still only in the early stages and have yet to pick out a song that will come after 'Yayaya'."
On the reasoning that their label selected "yayaya" as a follow-up, they said, "T-ara's Japanese record label made a strategical decision, and was very analytical about choosing it."
When they release "yayaya", it'll be at the same time as Namie Amuro and KAT-TUN release new songs. "T-ara has their own style and colors," they said, not being worried about the overlapping releases and activities but noting that T-ara will do to the best of their ability to fulfill their promotion cycles.
Meanwhile, T-ara will prepare for busy schedules by releasing their new songs "Cry Cry" and "lovey-dovey" in Korea in early November, and follow with their Japanese single album on November 30th in Japan.

Cha Seungwon met with some reporters on 20th October, at the venue of T-ara's new MV shooting. He revealed, "The members are great in acting, and they're experienced. As an actor, I felt that I have to work even harder."
He continued the praise without saving any of them, "We have a lot to shoot and it was tiring. But they smoothy done the shooting, while expressing each characters with different colors. Of course, we can see some individual variation. But everyone has an acting skill that is more than advantage. They're some skilled friends who can do well in acting and other directions."
Cha Seungwon revealed his decision of appearing in the MV. "After the end of 'The Greatest Love', I wanted to act again. So I accepted this offer. But the schedule is as hard as shooting an episode of a drama for 4 days. So now my interest in acting is slowly disappearing." (laughs)
This MV shooting is a huge project that spent 1.000.000.000 Won in the making, and will be a 30-minute drama. The MV is directed by Cha Euntaek, the master in MV shooting. Other than Cha Seungwon, Ji Changwook and the members of T-ara will also appear in the MV.
Meanwhile, T-ara's new album that will be released on November has became a hot news because of the participation of South Korea's best song-writers like Jo Yeongsoo, Brave Brothers, Shinsadong Tiger, Kang Jiwon, etc.
[NEWS]T-ara, "SNSD-Wonder Girls competition? Choosing which group to support is fun"
On the 19th, T-ara were shooting scenes for their two-part music video "Cry Cry" and "lovey-dovey". During the shooting, they sat down for an interview.
They said, "Unlike some rumors, the fact is that we are close to Girls' Generation and Wonder Girls sunbaes. With our three groups coming back at the same time and us all having three different colors, it'll be fun to watch and see which group fans will support."
T-ara member Eunjung said, "There isn't any sort of group showdown to us. We want to prove that T-ara is the best group at fitting in for our various concepts. Rather than a competition, we are trying to focus on being able to show our talents amongst them."
Hyomin said, "Because they'll also be on stage during us, we're a little worried about it, but it just makes us work harder. On the other hand, rather than competing with them on stage, we have the advantage (?) of being allowed with a bigger audience."
Despite having hard circumstances, Hyomin who is currently appearing in the drama "Gyebaek" and having overlapping activities in Japan with T-ara, preparing for a new album and shooting a new music video, said with a brave appearance, "I try to make schedule adjustments so that I can show up and complete and show what I need to."
