T-ara's Soyeon talked about how she felt when the articles about her relationship with Oh Jong Hyuk were released!

She was a guest on SBS' 'Challenge 1000 Song' along with Eunjung and Hyomin, and of course one of the first questions were about her relationship. MC Lee Hwi Jae asked, "Were you really nervous (when the articles came out)?"


At first, she was surprised by the question, but like a true variety veteran, she calmed down quickly and answered, "I was really nervous."

As fans know, she revealed her relationship with Oh Jong Hyuk in September right before T-ara's song was released. She's been dating him for about 3 years now.

The T-ara members have been eating in the waiting room lately.
With 3-4 events to attend a day on top of their weekly music show appearances, the girls don't have time to sit down for a proper meal. T-ara commented, "When we're busy, cup ramen and kimbap are best because we can finish in 10 minutes. The calorie count is high when we eat ramen and kimbap together, but I think we've given up on dieting."
In the recently shared photos above, the T-ara members are discussing their stage outfits while snacking in the waiting room before filming for a music show.


Netizens commented, "How can you dance after eating that," "It's good to see how hard they work," and more.

T-ara have been through a rough patch with the controversies and they shared that one of the ways they were able to get through it was by learning to receive negative comments as constructive criticism.

During an interview held at a cafe in Nonhyeondong, Seoul on the 14th, T-ara opened up about their hateful comments that blew up online due to their controversy. Hyomin shared, "I don't look at it carefully but I skim through it. In the past, I would search a lot of negative comments and find comments such as "You need to work on this" and "This is so-so", but now I try to find positive comments... These days, I feel better if encouraging posts increase a bit and as the positive posts increase. [Our members] say fighting to each other and read the posts to each other sometimes."

Boram also shared her new outlook on the hate, "The negative posts help us to reflect on ourselves and realize new things. I don't think of it as negative posts but I think to myself, 'We did it this way and we should fix it', and I try to receive it positively. I cried a lot upon reading nonsensical and inappropriate comments but now that doesn't affect me that much anymore. I think it is for our benefit and growth so rather than getting hurt, I learn from it."


T-ara were able to overcome their controversy by making a successful domestic comeback with "Number 9" and "I Know the Feeling".
