˹AS˼ 3,610 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 So I've been looking at T-ara's old videos and I just want to know why their company kept adding new girls to the girl group? At one point there was a total of 8. I mean, did they just randomly reveal that a new member would join the group each and every time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowpoke X 1,319 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 popular theory was that the CCM CEO wanted to add new members to create more competiton between the members, so that they would work harder idk where I read it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Was Pon This Wei 2,330 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hwayoung was added to become the "main rapper" role even though Eunjung/Hyomin did okay with the rapping sections (plus T-ara's best songs are the ones without a prominent rap section) Ahreum and Dani (planned to be) were added because KKS's reasoning was that he didn't want the girls getting lazy so he added in new members to make them work harder. He thought competition would keep the girls always hard working and if they slacked, they'd be kicked from the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzPower 3,385 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 There was no reason for CCM to add members, rumor was the CEO added them to bring some competition to within the group, trying to make the individual girls work harder and to make the group better overall. If I remember rightly he threatened to remove any girl that was bringing the group down or to remove anyone who wasn't "behaving" (asshole basically). He put his words into action by removing Hwayoung after she supposedly "acted out". There was also something about him eventually making them a nine member group so as to rival SNSD, back before the Hwayoung scandal T-ara were massive, they still are very popular but their popularity and fame took a huge dent after the scandal, I think that's when CCM gave up on trying to make them like SNSD. And yes, it was kind of random each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maneater 810 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 hwayoung was added because she was a bad bitch, ahreum was a useless whore who was only added to cause drama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YaniBear 3,055 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 They ruined T-Ara's career..... They were a hit back in 2009-2010... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silicon soul 19,457 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yeah like others have said, I remember reading that he wanted to add more girls so that they'd work harder, the reasoning being that at any given moment were they to slack off another girl would take their place. Of course that whole idea of KKS's eventually became a catalyst for T-aras fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
