The producers stated, “The young, innocent feel that the cast of the show gives makes even the hearts of the staff flutter, and we are very much looking forward to the airing of the first episode. The young teenage characters following their dreams and hearts, brings an even warmer feeling to the drama. We hope you all love and support the show“.

‘To The Beautiful You’ features Minho as a gold medalist in high jumping, and Sulli, a huge fan, disguises herself as a young boy to see her idol in an all-boys school.

CCM代表：金光洙 30日下午1点声明 原文

TARA组合是一个团体，其中有一个人认为自己很出色，或者做出单独行动的话Tara组合的本质就会发生质的转变。 对于现在很多关于TARA的排挤说，不和说，我想再次强调，这些事情都是不存在的，是与事实毫无相关的。 

TARA组合出道初期开始，有着恩静排挤说，素妍排挤说，宝蓝排挤说， 因为这些事情TARA也受到过很大的伤害，对于此，我想说：这些都是来源于小女孩们 做为朋友之间的相互嫉妒，属于小打小闹，过一两天自然而然的都会消失的。 这次演唱会总共有230多名的工作人员参与，TARA成员们所指的意志的差别指的并不是 能不能上舞台。 

成员中，若有人消极怠工，只想着自己的话演出肯定会出问题的， 这种演出在人们眼中肯定是华而不实的演出， 所以成员们所说的意志是为了防止这种事情的发生而提出的。 作为歌手和工作人员，最重要的是身体健康。 只有身体健康，状态出色，才能在舞台上展现出最完美的自己。 恩静在冰面上摔倒导致韧带撕裂，智妍在拍摄电视剧的时候伤到腿部，不得不贴着石膏坚持着， 而且这次在日本演出的时候，与照明工作人员的相撞伤到了鼻梁，但是她不顾工作人员的反对，坚持完成在日本的演出， 直到回国后做手术，并且住院3天。 这次花英由于腿部受伤不能上台演出，是为了保护成员， 尽管花英本人要求坚持演出，但是所有的工作人员和成员都反对她的上台。 

因此，花英按照自己的意愿，只参加了“DAY BY DAY”的演出。 所以，TARA成员们所说的意志的差别并不是能不能上舞台。 公司里很多的工作人员和经纪人拿着微薄的薪水，默默的在背后帮助着，支持着他们的明星们。 熬夜驾车，24小时待命，在舞台后化妆和衣装确认，只是为了培养出 属于我们自己的一流明星。 公司的经纪人们平时3~7名住在小屋子或者宿舍里，可见有多艰苦。 这些工作人员，如果因为特定的某个演艺人，感到心痛，或者对自己的举动感到后悔而换职场的话， 现在给大家提供笑容，幸福，以及欢乐的TARA只是带着伪装面具的TARA。 

TARA组合8名成员有今天，是因为大家的支持。TARA并不是一个人的TARA， TARA重视的是成员团结，所以尊重19名工作人员的意见，才决定发表这篇声明。 我自己也想过，我的做法是不是正确的，当发表这篇声明的时候，我自己也是心如刀割般的难受， 但是为了TARA的未来，做出了今天的决定。然后和工作人员们一起，在今天早上7点之前和TARA成员们结束谈话。 

我想再次强调，TARA成员和花英之间，并不存在所谓排挤，不和。这些都是与事实无关的传闻。 之前我也说过,TARA从7人转变9人的期间，如果有不认真或者给她人带来伤害的成员，我会马上做出替换成员的决定 TARA成员们若是仗着自己是明星，以消极的态度对付每场演出的话，TARA只会是一个空壳组合。 

所以，我认为，谦虚，教养，人的品性才是最重要的。 只有这些，才是TARA走出韩国，成为韩流TARA的唯一捷径。 花英是有着很好前途的RAP，所以公司决定与她无条件解约，并且祝她以自由歌手的身份，在别的地方有更好的发展。 

TARA出道3年之际发生这些事情，我深表歉意，并且感到愧疚，现在我只能说非常抱歉，非常对不起。 到今天早上，为了和花英继续在一起，TARA成员们一直在和我，和公司工作人员们讨论有什么挽回的办法， 对此我表示了抱歉，身为一个公司的代表，我不能不考虑辛苦的工作人员们的感受。 最后，我对TARA成员们表示歉意， 并且祝愿花英成为优秀的歌手。 

然而，当事人 花英 在推特上留言说道“....facts without truth”。也有网友们表示>金光洙 正在隐藏着事实的真相，金光洙 也要求花英 个人保持沉默。

T-ara member Eunjung has recently been casted as part of SBS' 30-episode drama, "Five Fingers". Reviewstar sat down with the drama's officials for a phone interview and they stated that "We still do not know what kind of action we will be taking in light of recent events. It's only been a little bit over an hour since the news of Hwayoung's departure came out, so we are still unable to present everyone with an official statement."

"Five Fingers" message board has became filled with hateful messages and viewers commenting that "they will not watch the drama if Eunjung is there."

Furious fans burned T-ara's albums to express their anger,things are getting worse T.T

SBS PD will not contact T-ara in the future!

After the controversial announcement of T-ara Hwayoung's contract termination, SBS PD's "Will not contact T-ara in the future" is attracting attention.

"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.

Ryu PD's remarks also attracted a reply from the MBC drama "Lights and Shadow" PD/director Lee Sangyub who said "Oh~ Me too then."

From the comments, it appears as if the PDs side in the favor of Hwayoung. However, some netizens have suggested that the PDs should not talk about this publicly because it can be considered "inappropriate."

6,300 left T-ara's fancafe

After the news of T-ara member Hwayoung's contract termination, their concert is left in a crisis with the possibility of being canceled.

T-ara fans are turning their back against T-ara amongst the agency's official announcement. More than 6,300 fans have left T-ara's fancafe "Mystic" after the member withdrawal news.

T-ara's first solo concert in Korea "Jewelry Box" which will be held on August 11th at the Jamsil Gymnasium is also in a state of panic now.

Fans aren't able to hide their disappointment in the news about T-ara's Hwayoung, and have gone on to cancel their reservations for the concert. Originally, all seats were sold out but are quickly being canceled one by one.

On Twitter, a tweet with the image of a canceled ticket reservation is floating around rapidly saying, "Because of the wrong decision that CEO Kim Kwangsoo made, the group is no longer a 'crown/tiara' but a 'loner (someone who has been bullied').

T-ara's first solo concert in Korea since their debut three years ago is being held on August 11th. T-ara have completed their Japanese tour on the 25th and 26th in the Budokan arena.

T-ara's fans are raising their voices fast about their disappointment with T-ara's agency.

T/N: Mystic is NOT T-ara's official cafe. Mystic changed into an anti-T-ara cafe/pro-Hwayoung cafe and lost 6,000 members. fant-ara is the official one ran by CCM staff which has steadily gained a few members.
