Let’s just say this. T-ara will always be loved and remembered as a six member group: Boram, Qri, Soyeon, Eunjeun, Hyomin and Jiyeon. And they were absolutely fire.

[@roguereacts]

I love the 6 member line up!

[@chris_tyt]

@@roguereacts It’s just sad that their incompetent company made so many ridiculous decisions when the six girls were hitting their prime. And they fell so hard, because of lies and injustice. Think T-ara’s story is one of the most heart-breaking one in K-pop.

[@jaynadiah5498]

@@chris_tyt i never understood why they introduced the ryu girl... areum wasnt even needed but she fit in fine so it is what it is eunjyeong and hyomin were absolute fire with rapping already..... why.. why? omg so sad

[@chris_tyt]

@@jaynadiah5498 could never get my head around it. Shocking decision.

[@chris_tyt]

@@jaynadiah5498 baffling. Literally the worst decision in K-pop, ever.

[@destabler]

Most k-pop fans today don't realize how big T-ARA was at their peak. They were legit bigger than Girls' Generation.

[@roguereacts]

I wish their had not been the drama because I think they would have even gotten bigger and would have love to have heard what their sound evolved to in the later years!

[@rihemmaz9386]

You can consider T_ARA 6 members,but now just these 4 who won the trade mark case for the gp name can use it,those 4 are: Jiyeon :the center,visual,lead vocal,main dancer,sub rapper&actress; Eunjung: main vocal,main rapper,actress ; Hyomin: lead vocal,main rapper;lead dancer,actress,fashion designer;&Qri: leader,sub vocal; the other two are: soyeon: main vocal,I think used to be the leader; Boram: vocal; most of them have solo songs ; the popular ones I think are Jiyeon releases (Never Ever&Take a hike); Hyomin & Eunjung have solo songs too;

[@TeeTop_]

I just remembered there was a plan to make T-ara a 9-member group...yeah...that went...tragically. The videos with 6 members are the same 6 members from debut though, so that's nice.

[@roguereacts]

To be honest I like the 6 member comp, the all complimented each other very well 🥰

[@Jon.f.s]

20:32 "I don't even know what the version 2 is" Baby, let me tell you: Sugar free has 3 versions. Each one with different beat drops. And all of them are ICONIC

[@roguereacts]

3??!?! 👀

[@Reex22]

Yasss you made it to my favorite T-ara song Sugar free! It’s a timeless masterpiece in my opinion. It’s produced and written by one of the best idol producers there is, the icon that is LE (or ELLY) from EXID. She’s a rapper, producer and song writer. She’s also on Sugar free, she’s one of the rappers you heard, take timestamp 19:40 before the drop as an example. Before she was the main rapper and producer of EXID. She was under Cube entertainment, where she trained before becoming a rap coach for HyunA. LE basically created the female rappers from cubes style. To make it easier: LE trained HyunA who went on to inspire/train Yeeun (CLC) and Soyeon’s (G-idle) raptones. I can hear it very well in some of Yeeuns raps (not a bad thing but an interesting detail). With all this said, I highly recommend you react to EXID if you want more of LE’s amazing talent. Love your reactions as always❤

[@joc.4992]

Yes do a Deep Dive into E.X.I.D (you won't be disappointed)

[@roguereacts]

I have EXID on my list!!! I can't wait to get to them! When we swing back to the Throwback series after exploring some soloists they are top on the list 🥰

[@krayzielyrics]

T-ara was my favorite girl group before they stopped. Now I'm a Twice fan :)

[@Snyper7Gaming]

Same!

[@roguereacts]

🥰🤘🏻

[@itjustnick]

T-ARA is LEGEND 👑

[@anhoai187]

Actually all the members of T-ARA can rap pretty well. They have a lots of songs with rap that dont have the effect. You can react to these songs: Day by day (there are 2 version - dance ver and drama ver with Sexy love drama ver), T-ara&Davichi - We were in love, or their most recent song - All kill

[@roguereacts]

I loved Day by Day and All Kill 🥰

[@JaeMinJung.]

I just remember everyone was going crazy when SUGAR FREE came out

[@roguereacts]

I can see why its a good song!!!

[@Toxic0788]

I can't wait for more T-ARA Reactions!!! ♥️♥️

[@roguereacts]

hope you enjoyed the rest of them! 🥰

[@Goldra93]

I loved T-ARA I really love their style of songs. The songs in this video were some of my favorite I could and have listened to them on repeat

[@roguereacts]

they have quiet an interesting sound as you start moving through the years 😊

[@ych_nation1459]

No, you are correct. They debuted as a group of 6, then expanded to 7 members, later increasing to 8 members, then reverted back to 7, and eventually returned to the original 6 members. Nowadays they are 4.

[@roguereacts]

Just all over the place, and sad that they had so many issues. I really enjoy a lot of their music!

[@dexterity3696]

If Rap + EDM, Jeon Won Diary of TaraN4 should be considered. But only 4 members in that

[@roguereacts]

👀 you had me at Rap + EDM...

[@n1ghtsh1ft29]

T-ara had been through many lineup changes. There were 6 members, then one was added. There were talks about adding 2 more members to become 9, but it fell through and one left. They added the 7th member, Areum. She was in the group for a while but then she was put into hiatus. T-ara continued as 6 a member group until their contract ended.

[@dem0nxx671]

It wasn't quite like that. If you do not take into account the pre-debut lineups, there has always been a main lineup of 6 girls: Boram, Qri, Soyeon, Eunjeong, Hyomin and Jiyeon. Later, a curse was added in the form of Hwayoung, and there were 7 of them. Then they added the talented Areum, and there were 8 of them. Then, after a scandal with Hwayoung, she was kicked out and there were 7 of them again. And then, due to the consequences of the same scandal, Areum left and again the classic line-up of 6 girls remained. After the contracts expired, Soyeon and Boram refused to renew them, and there were only 4 girls left. How they still exist.

[@jhm2732]

@@dem0nxx671 the 9 members thing is true though, they were going to add another member in 2013 but the scandal happened and when they became 6 again, all those plans stopped. In fact, number 9 refers to that ninth member that never got to debut in form of a love song

[@jaynadiah5498]

they were 8 during the 'day by day' video time and adding 1 more and the 9th member was meant to be danielle who is the young girl in the day by day mv.. in fact yes they even had her on stage with them saying she going to join but it didnt happen in the end as the whole group collapsed because of hwayoungs evilness

[@rihemmaz9386]

the one with short hair that u seems to like her tome (even in part 1) is Jiyeon, the center,main dancer,visual & maknae of T_ARA "prob the most popular member of the gp", Jiyeon has 2 EPs and some OSTs; I hope u check her songs "Never Ever" & "Take a hike", she is an actress too. the other one u liked her tone ,red head is QRI (she is underrated & gets the least line with Boram);

[@roguereacts]

Jiyeon was my favorite! Love her vocal tone and loved her in the drama MVs 🥰 I have her and other members on my solo series!

[@parkjiyeonlover5511]

Form the look at ur face u look shocked /surprised while u watched t-ara mv’s also ppl calling t-ara chameleon 😄 form their changing concept every comeback hehehe☺️🧡+ if ur really want a rap and really awesome one watch (like the first time ) mv ! It’s so hyping and genius.

[@joc.4992]

Thanks for all of your T*ARA reactions. Hope to see your reactions to the Drama versions to Cry Cry, Sexy Love, and Lovey Dovey (Full version)

[@BlackMoore82]

Eunjung, Hyomin, and Jiyeon became soloists. Eunjung released "I'm Good" & "굿 바이" in 2015 and "Desire" in 2019, Hyomin released "Make Up" in 2014, "Sketch" in 2016, and "Allure" in 2019. While Jiyeon released "1Min 1Sec" in 2014 and "Senpass" in 2019.

[@zacharikurbah6358]

Don’t forget Hyomin released Mango in 2018.

[@m..na.]

Sugar free still a club banger to this dayyyy

[@roguereacts]

I 1000% get it! I'm always boppin when it comes on my playlist!!

[@fkw1239]

omg i have sexy love ringtone for long time

[@roguereacts]

it's sooooo good!

[@midnightxgem6147]

For Sexy Love, they are supposed to be dolls (I think lol)

[@roguereacts]

I definitely got a doll/robot vibe 😊

[@zacanger]

I know you're confused about the members, so: The ones you see in almost ever MV are Eunjung, Hyomin, Jiyeon, and Qri. Soyeon adn Boram for 7 of those years, Jiae and Jiwon only predebut, Hwayoung for a little bit, Areum for two releases, and Dani who never actually debuted with T-ara N4 before she left. It's confusing and I probably got some of it wrong.

[@roguereacts]

thank you!! 🥰

[@jaynadiah5498]

number 9 and sugar free are what actually got me into kpop years ago.. lol t-ara will always be my all time fave

[@roguereacts]

sugar free is soooo good I just bop to that song all the time!

[@jaynadiah5498]

@@roguereacts i noticed you have missed some awesome t-ara tunes though... the stage version of 'dont leave' is amazing... also 'do you know me' (what should i do)the long version is probably the best video of theirs ever!

[@osga98]

about the fluctuating number of members: there's 6 members that are in every song(except their latest one, which has 2 less), theres 2 members that joined in during their peak popularity(not at the same time) but left, and there are 3 other members who trained to be in the group but never actually joined ? i think thats all idk if any of them have extensive solo careers but i know most of them are actresses so i have to assume there might be some solo osts at least ? sexy love is sooo silly. just the fact that it released in the middle of the controversy is wild. i cant believe i always forget just how good it is~ (the rap being genuinely good) must be because sugarfree is (co)produced by a female rapper~ learning that its elly makes it all make so much sense, i cant believe i only noticed now that she's actually in the song

[@cherryblossomsak]

Yess T-ara!!!! Thanks for checking them out

[@roguereacts]

💙💙 thanks for watching!

[@m..na.]

I used to always get so excited with what t-ara would come out with next!

[@anonygent]

Fun fact: Number 9 is a reference to the old novelty song Love Potion #9.

[@roguereacts]

Okay that's what I thought! When I was watching the live performance of it I as like wait a second... 🤣

[@nabat777]

​@@roguereactsno, it's not, there was such a cure for headache Number 9, that's why this song was called that, it was said by the band members themselves

[@nabat777]

no, it's not, there was such a cure for headache Number 9, that's why this song was called that, it was said by the band members themselves

[@ariesmic]

T-ara is 2nd generation girl group, same generation of girl generation (SNSD), f(x), Miss A, Kara, 4minutes, Secret, A-Pink, there is a lot more. Number 9 was my fav.

[@TakahashiDestR84]

I am strong OT6 T-ara fan and I hate all that shit MBK did during their activity. Everything was nearly perfect until they added that horse Hwhayong (she is really pretty but I didn't get the point why to put someone in well established group)and she ruined everything.

[@krayzielyrics]

MBK ruined them - I hate them so much. I'm so sad about how they were handled; T-ara could've been so big

[@roguereacts]

so I've been total... 😔

[@buddyblris3094]

these songs really bring me back to my university days when I was discovering kpop. So much nostalgia.

[@roguereacts]

awww that's amazing! I wish I had discovered kpop earlier on in life, but then again I would have this channel to explore it all with you if I had 🥰

[@anonygent]

As long as you're reviewing old groups, I recommend Kara, Girl's Day, Orange Caramel, Laboum, and Crayon Pop. Girl's Day's Female President is the first K-Pop song I ever liked and remains my favorite. Plus it has a nice female empowerment theme you're sure to like. There are two MV's, the regular and the dance, and both are good. There's a cute scene in the regular MV that is sure to tickle you.

[@roguereacts]

Kara has been done already in the Throwback series! I also have several of the others on my list to get to! 🥰 Girl's Day is one I'm very interested in checking out!

[@anonygent]

@@roguereacts 👍 I just found out the audio tracks for the Girl's Day albums were uploaded to KZbin in January of this year, so now I have TEN new Girl's Day songs to listen to, and I still have more to review. And if you like ballads, which I don't, you might have way more than that to enjoy. Okay, I did save one ballad just because they're THAT good. A little background info so you're not surprised: Girl's Day started off with five members and a cutesy look and poppy sound. They were unremarkable and not very popular. Then two members left, one new member was added, and they switched to a sexy look and hot sound and became very popular, and not a little controversial in straight laced Korea. They had just three hits, Expect, Something, and Female President, but deserved to have so many more.

[@rm3364]

If you want to hear them rap more there is plenty of content to work through 😁 T-ara actually have one of the most extensive discographies in all of K-pop with a ton of albums, both Korean and Japnese (back then they were actually one of the most famous Korean acts in Japan and very much in China as well). Each member has multiple solo singles and albums, they have sub-units like T-ara N4 and QBS. The main rappers of the group are Eunjung and Hyomin who are also both lead vocalists. Members Ahreum and Hwayoung were also main rappers at some point, but they left the group in 2012/13.

[@roguereacts]

I've been listening to a few albums over the past few days and I'm loving them! 😊

[@beauregarden]

😂 never have I seen someone get so mad about the rap parts lol Rap was much less of a focus in 2nd gen than it is now (especially in girl groups). Most groups who debuted in 2009 onwards had rappers, but the rap was just kinda plonked into the song randomly and not given much thought. Some more hip hop focused groups had more effort put into the rap parts (like 2ne1 and 4minute), but for the majority of GGs it was like this lol. People didn't really come to T-ara for the rap 😂. Oh yeah, in the early 2010s vocal distortion effects were evvverywhere in kpop 😂

[@roguereacts]

LISTEN!! 🤣 You know I love a good rap and rappers, I just wanted to hear them without the autotune effect 😅

[@niagarapho9385]

Thank you for reacting them❤

[@roguereacts]

thank you for watching! 🥰

[@qridoesntcare]

Rogie, T-ara had one of the biggest controversies in kpop history that spanned across being blackballed by the industry for over 5 years. It was bigger news than the olympics in korea when it happened it was MASSIVE.

[@roguereacts]

👀 a few people gave me the low down over in the discord... its wild what happened

[@orbit_gary]

Watch live stage of Like The First Time. You get a Hyomin and Eungung rap. And Qri is the girl with the red hair. A real problem for me in the later OT4 years.

[@insomny_catcher]

I know this video is a couple months older... BUT GOOD GOD you need to watch the live performances of Sugar free.... It's the best thing ever.....

[@roguereacts]

1000% seen it!! and yes agreed!! 🥰🥰🥰 also the song is a bop!

[@justinjyeung]

Yes, for "Sexy Love" they went with the dolls/mannequins concept, again another interesting switch-up for them which would support their label as "chameleons of K-pop" :D The member who rapped was Ahreum, the new member added earlier that year (2012), she has a bit of a lower-tone voice. What I really like about the rap style of T-ara, namely from Hyomin and Eunjung, is they always rap with a bit of fuller vocal tone, usually with little processing/auto-tune, and not with a sharper vocal tone like you might hear from CL or G-Idle's Soyeon (nothing against that style of rapping, but i just prefer me the old-school style). Some of their earlier songs and B-sides really let that rap style shine, such as "Why Are You Being Like This/What's Wrong" (where Eunjung and Hwayoung get to rap) or "T.T.L", a collab with their same-label boy group Supernova (where Hyomin and Eunjung rap). "T.T.L" is honestly legendary, even though it was T-ara's 1st comeback (and Supernova wasn't like super-popular) it literally became such an iconic song and like everyone in Korea has heard the song, even if they don't know T-ara's name or anything. It's also probably the second most successful male-female collab in K-pop, after Troublemaker. "Number 9" was released in 2013, after Ahreum left, and marked a return to the original debut lineup of 6 members. I believe it's partly inspired by the song "Love Potion No. 9". And yes, all 6 members have had solo releases, let me list them here: -Boram (straight black hair with bangs): She actually released some solo songs before she debuted in T-ara, as her parents are well-known in the entertainment industry so they must've helped her - "Is it Today", "From Memory" (2008) -Qri ("Q-ree") (red hair): "Suri Suri" (2021) -Soyeon (main vocal in the chorus): "Just the Same as Before", "Interview" (2021) -Eunjung (shortest bob hair): She released solo songs using the name Elsie - "I'm Good", "Goodbye" (2015) -Hyomin (has the rap): "Nice Body" (2014), "Mango" (2018), "Allure" (2019) -Jiyeon (shoulder-length brown hair): "Never Ever" (2014), "Take a Hike" (2019) "Sugar Free" is such hard EDM by K-pop standards haha but it tends to be an easy entry point for modern international fans to get into T-ara's music, as a result XD "Tiamo" was released in 2016 kind of like a song for the fans, known as Queen's. And that's JIyeon at the start of the MV, the face of the group :) Also, this would end up being the last title track release including Soyeon and Boram. If you get a chance to revisit T-ara's discography, I have to recommend these MVs: -"T.T.L" (2009), collab with boy group Supernova that is legendary, and features an iconic chorus with lots of rap verses -"Like the First Time" (2009), cute MV with a heavy synth-based sound -"I Go Crazy Because of You"/"You Drive Me Crazy" (2010), darker sexy-style song that parallels Britney Spears's style -"Why Are You Being Like This"/"What's Wrong" (2010), a catchy electric guitar-based song with plenty of rap -"Lovey-Dovey" Zombie Ver. (2012), that's right, it's a catchy shuffle choreo dance pop song with zombies! -"Do You Know Me?" (2013), a fun musical-style song and MV that's a remake of an older pop song -"Little Apple" (2014), a remake of a viral Chinese song that helped bolster the group's career in the Chinese market (only features 4 members) -"So Crazy" (2015), a fun pop song with a beauty pageant-style storyline in the MV -"What's My Name?" (2017), a more modern-style almost-tropical pop song that would be their last release under MBK -"Tiki Taka" (2021), yes, the remaining 4 members made a comeback after a 4-year hiatus completely funded by their own money! it has a dark but modern sound

[@loveblissflair7948]

[@jaynadiah5498]

ok so there are 6 MAIN members.. originally eunjoung and hyomin (of the original 6) did all the raps.... then they introduced 2 more members for just raps.. sometimes in videos you would see 7 or 8 (the original 6 plus 1 or 2 of the new rappers)... but one of the new rappers created ridiculous controversy she was a horrible person ... .. even though the other one was totally innocent... it basically killed t-ara who were soooo huge at the time. but thats another story. The LAST song tiamo.... is basically after all the controversy... they came back and did a christmas song with just the original 6 members.. its basically saying goodbye this is our last song...... its really sad.. the person they 'love' is the fans... its so sad
