omg,
when her appearance at 45kg which was said to be her profile for most of her career I already thought that was super skinny, but now this is a whole nother level of thin. This is borderline anorexia if not already anorexia shes gotta be around 80-90lbs now, and taking into account her height of 5'6" this is an unhealthy state. Shes pure flesh and bones at this point. She's never gotten to this state before. I started noticing her weight loss since she did "My Runway", but I thought she did it just for that role since models are said to be super skinny, but since then she's been on a decline. I see some comments on her IG telling her that its alright to be this size, so long as she's happy, for which I call BS, this needs to be addressed her body is naturally skinny but not like this, this is extreme.

That's a good point, and one I should have thought about. I can't imagine that Jiyeon would lie to her fans - in the past she has performed when she was sick or injured so many times. So it wouldn't make sense that she would skip out on her performances, disappointing V-Queens and Soobin so much.
In actual fact, we don't know where she is; it's just speculation that she is in the U.S. based on pictures from a couple of her recent posts.
In this IG post, you can see a Chevron gas station and English signs, but the photo is too blurry to see exactly what they say.
In an earlier IG post she made, the picture shows cars and a house that look very much like what you would typically see in the U.S. I don't know where you are from, but I live in the U.S. (in a different part than where these pics might have been taken), so I'm very familiar with the style. It is by no means certain that she is in the U.S. but my *guess* is that she is/was somewhere in the southern U.S. or Hawaii (based on the palm trees and other plants that are visible).
Same, I live on the west coast and although I've never been to the east side I assume that palm trees in the amount seen in the pics are not as prevalent due to the climate.
We don't know Jiyeon's exact location, but you don't have to guess the country. One of the photos has a fire truck with American flags on it.

As for why she's here, the thought of it being related to medical treatment crossed my mind. As much as the thought of her being on vacation right now irks me, I still prefer that theory. If she came to the US for medical treatment, it's probably for something pretty serious. Do we have better medical resources than South Korea? Probably, assuming you can afford it, but they should still be able to treat most things just fine there. Her coming here for vacation at a time like this doesn't look good, but her being here for medical reasons just plain isn't good.
On the (relatively) positive side of things, the only reason she would go somewhere tropical for medical treatment is proximity to Korea. There are probably other places in the US with better institutions. I don't know if it's Hawaii, but I'm still guessing she hasn't left the Pacific.
LMAO, I didn't even see the American flag on the fire truck
The only thing that's actually proving that she was sick is the fact that she personally(?) contacted Soobin to tell him she couldn't perform. I thought about that too where the U.S. could have something that S.Korea does not offer for her particular condition, but as far as I know S. Korea has pretty advanced med. tech. so I'm curious as to what she has that couldn't be treated there. When they told us her schedules are canceled they said we'd know more of her condition when she regained her health back, so I'm now waiting to see if they do.
Why? She was sick during V Live concert(s). Are you aware of any schedules in Vietnam right now? If not then she can fly to wherever she wants
Of course, she has the liberty to do what she wants, however, she had a Hong Kong(?) fan meeting that many were looking forward to for months and it's not like she couldn't vacation at a later time since bluntly speaking she's not doing anything else at the moment.
Of course, this is assuming that she wasn't sick.
-------------------------------------------------------------
She has barely been around since the end of the contract, hell even before then it was rare to see her anywhere unless they had a comeback and that was for a small amount of time. She needs to seize the moment before shes forgotten which is quite likely to happen if fans keep being kept in the dark. We get an Instagram post once in a blue moon and even then its sometimes recycled photos. I've been loyal to her for 8 years, even with the little schedules she has however, I can't guarantee that everyone else thinks the same. Shes already had a large decrease in fans in 2012, and while she is still doing well in Vietnam and China that won't last forever if she doesn't do her part.
Eunjung and Hyomin are doing various activities that will not only help them retain their fans but perhaps even acquire more with their talent. They also have been better at expressing their love for them as they got together with several fans and hung out with them for a while showing their appreciation.
--------------------------------------------------------------
I'm super stoked for Hyomins comeback, im digging the concept based on the teaser images. I feel like this is going to be better than sketch which is gonna be hard, even if it is isn't I am still expecting it to be great lol.
It took me a while to get the play on words she used Mango = Man Go, so for a duration of time I was like how is she gonna sing about a fruit BUT then I found out what it was
I assume it'll be a breakup song(?)Is she going to be involved heavily in the production this time like she was in Sketch?
---------------------------------------------------------------
Eunjungs drama is doing considerably well considering it's competing with 30 but 17, and she looks and is acting great, (although I'm not feeling SJH acting in a couple of scenes it's a fun drama)
---------------------------------------------------------------
Qri is also looking great in her recent pictures just enjoying life,
but I see no intention of coming back to the music industry... hopefully I'm wrong tho
----------------------------------------------------------------
Soyeon seems like she wants back in but not at the same time, hopefully, we get to hear her angelic voice once again.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Boram definitely looks like she's done with music BUT when we had a sudden sighting she looked very good (she actually looked younger lol) and she looks great with the long hair. (slight hope)

what theories?
Honestly, it would be better for her if she went to the "states" for her a medical reason, because it'll be really bad for her if she canceled her schedules to go vacationing. Not that I want her to be in bad health, but many are going to feel upset if it turns out that she lied. However she does look extremely thin, her face looks rather good, but you can see her arms are sticks and her neck looks a little different as well.

(idk how to add twitter on here)
I wonder what her condition is that she is starting to cancel her schedules even if they're a bit far away from now. It must be very serious and I wish we weren't kept in the dark as much. The only signs of life we've had of her was by posting "old" pictures that were already seen/released a while back.

The fact that she hasn't even updated her social media is the scary part. It doesn't exactly take much energy. She's always gone long periods without updating, so that's not unusual, but surely she must realize people are worried about her, especially with the complete lack of information given on her condition. Yet we've gotten nothing. Zero word from anyone. Heck, we couldn't even get a proper English translation of their initial announcement!
I can only take solace in the fact that the other members are acting like it's business as usual. I imagine they'd show some sort of public support if her condition were serious, but with seemingly no one willing to say anything, it's hard to come to any concrete conclusions. I'm already seeing people getting agitated and turning on them for this though, so it would be in everyone's best interest to give us an update. I understand wanting to respect her privacy if it's something more complicated than "being sick" (which people are rarely hospitalized for), but given her celebrity status, this is being handled poorly.
And I'm starting to think they forgot all about that dance video they were supposed to upload.
I agree that it is the companies responsibility to update fans on the status of their artist, but if the artist doesn't want their private info to get out then there's only so much they can do. I heard that her collab with the Vietnamese artist was done pre-signing so I am wondering what exactly the company is doing for her. All we've gotten was a glimpse of what appeared to be a company in works as it was undergoing construction at the time. Hyomin and Eunjung signed to unknown labels but Hyomin has been able to be on a variety show and has been in CFs, Eunjung starred in a variety show as well and is shooting a drama, whereas Jiyeon's activities mainly pertained to her connections.
I'm starting to notice some tension with other Jiyeon fans as well, where they think that she is not taking fans as seriously as she should (?) or something along those lines. She's being compared to the other member's with the treatment of their fans and how shes always so secretive and treats everything as a present when it's not really to that extent. Considering all the psychological damage shes had to endure it understandable if she's more closed off than most, and I'm not saying she has to be an open book, but it would be nice if she was a bit more expressive.
I also wish that there was more info on how the trademark is going or some intel on whether or not they will remain as 4, OG6 or something else. I mean a wild Boram was found not too long ago after going M.I.A. for almost a year, and Soyeon is updating bits of her life but so far there hasn't been any indication or a reunification so I'm starting to lose hope of one. Imma still stick with these girls as I have for the past 6 years, but I can see how some won't.
People can be hospitalized if by being sick some infection or poisoning is meant. Still the lack of updates is unexplainable. We don`t need details, we just need general status.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, I'm not asking for an in-depth look into her medical chart, but the company/she just needs to assure the fans whether or not she's ok.
Hyomin is such a cutie

Why are we not getting any updates on Jiyeon? It's been almost a week with nothing but silence.

Same. I wish the company or Jiyeon by updating her sns would tell us that if she's alright or not. They made it sound major since both her body and mind had to rest, I wonder what could've happened that made her get to that state considering that she's the girl who performed with a broken nose, when she has bad stomach/side pain, and to the point where she can barely walk right. I don't know if it was due to the company forcing her or not but its good that she's resting and taking the doctors advice.
+ whatever happened to that one video of her dancing with stage631? it was coming soon 1 mo. ago

At first, this whole Momoland being the next T-ara was cute and flattering, but now S. Tiger is taking it to a whole new level where he's still trying to use the T-ara sound and even had the audacity to tell Momolands company to use one of the most iconic dances in last decade of kpop (Lovey Dovey shuffling). T-ara is slowly being erased because now newer gens are not gonna think of T-ara when that shuffling move comes on.

What was the deliberation on Ahreums performance?

-
It's not like they wrote their own script tho.....

Yeah but they think that T-ara's like Eric Nam who could've rejected, so now they're calling her racist :/
-
The part where she says curry whilst in Indian garment(?) didn't sit well with people...
-
Sigh, I knew Jiyeons 3min gf part was gonna become controversial. :/

Is Master of driving going to be subbed?

Who is that?
-
Is it just me or is anyone else noticing Jiyeons weight loss, and is low key starting to worry...
-
Did something happen cause i saw a video of what I think was T-ara apologizing to fans?
-
I really want them to stop promoting/singing roly poly & bpbp within the last week weve heard them sing it like 4 times. Dont get me wrong i loved the song as they have great meaning to t-ara, but they're seriously overplayed. Bpbp is around 7 years old and roly poly is around 5, so crazy gets a pass cause its their most recent, I wish they sang the songs that are more into todays sound like Number 9 and Sugar Free.
Anyway they performed great, and the fanchant was pretty decent as well.

I'm not 100% sold on the comeback. There are some aspects that I like, for instance, the instrumental. Whereas with her voice it sounds for a lack of a better word messy in some parts same with the MV I felt like they were just random shots like WYN (forever pissed at the fact they teasers were 1000x better than the actual mv). I did like her rap part on it though she changed her tone and I was surprised that there weren't that many drops as I thought there were gonna be as I listened to the song. It a song that is likely to grow on me after listening to it several times but rn it's not to my liking as much as I thought it'd be.
And I'm not liking the styling either who the heck allowed/gave her the leopard dress with the hands covered, awful choice same with the long shoes. The black suit is fine but a bit plain if im being honest.
However she said that shes already has several songs ready for an album, so I'm anticipating that!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
When she says that the name "T-ara" belongs to both of them, does it mean just the past T-ara can MBK profit off of, or in the future IF there is a comeback will whatever they make from them will it be given to MBK as well?
I want to know what ratio of incomes does each party get.
As many of you know concerts are what really get the artist their income, is MBK still going to receive a part of it even if they don't partake in any of the preparations? And where does the line get drawn of who has ownership of what, like on shows if they were to go together as T-ara members does MBK get profit?
