T-ara, often stylized as T-ARA or T♔ARA is a popular South Korean girl group formed by Core Contents Media (subsidiaries of Mnet Media), in 2009. Some of the members have actually active in the industry, prior to their debut. Originally a 5-member group, they first release their song through soundtrack of MBC drama Cinderella Man, "Good Person". One of the member, Park Ji Yeon, was included in project with Davichi and Seeya, performing "Women's Generation" in public broadcast music show.

T-ara formally debut into entertainment show through Mnet Countdown, performing "Lies". They achieve success with their first all-kill song, "Bo Peep Bo Peep", sweeping all awards in public broadcast chart. They later made their comeback with "I Go Crazy Because Of You" and "I'm Really Hurt".

However, their follow-up song did not meet their instant success. Their  song "Why are You Being Like This" and " Yayaya" cannot replicate their success in "Bo Peep Bo Peep". In the following year, their song "Roly-Poly" almost break their long-awaited drought in winning Music Bank. They are in the Top 2 for almost 2 months, but to no avail. After a long years of waiting, they finally won their Music Bank K-Chart, with their follow-up song, "Lovey Dovey", reminiscing their success beforehand with "Bo Peep Bo Peep".Nonetheless, almost all of their song were crowned winner in other public broadcast, amidst the long waiting at KBS.

When File Sharing is in "Breakdown" State...

Hello Hello!!

we're having problems(??)!!

not sure whether is a problem, but the government has block the website. I don't know if it has an aftereffect in our lives, as some people would use internet to download stuff such as movies, etc. Recently, today, many file sharing sites have been blocked by the government, most particularly Fileserve, Duckload, and Filetube. As this articles is written, only Mediafire & Megaupload can be used, this has been a massive frenzy and catastrophic havoc in entire Malaysia, as some of them used the file sharing site. 

4shared

Duckload

 Fileserve

Filesonic

Filestube

[p/s: some of them have already got the solutions to the problem, using DNS servers.. But well, I hope it still relevant so that I can used it while it lasts...]

**Hangul (Korean) Version**

아직 난 널 잊지 못하고 모든걸 다 믿지 못하고
이렇게 널 보내지 못하고 오늘도

다시 만들어볼게 우리 이야기 끝나지 않게 아주 기나긴
살갗을 파고 스며드는 상실감은 잠시 묻어둘게
새로 써 내려가 시작은 행복하게 웃고 있는 너와 나
네가 날 떠나지 못하게 배경은 출구가 없는 좁은 방 안

아무렇지 않게 네게 키스하고 달콤한 너의 곁을 떠나가질 못해
우린 끝이라는건 없어

이렇게 난 또 (fiction in fiction)
잊지 못하고 (fiction in fiction)
내 가슴 속에 끝나지 않을 이야길 쓰고 있어
널 붙잡을게 (fiction in fiction)
놓지 않을게 (fiction in fiction in fiction)
끝나지 않은 너와 나의 이야기 속에서 오늘도 in fiction

지금 여긴 행복한 이야기들밖에 없어
너무 행복한 우리 둘만의 이야기가 이렇게 (현실과는 다르게)
써 있어 점점 채워지고 있어

너는 나에게로 달려와서 안기고
품 안에 안긴 너를 나는 절대 놓지 못해
우린 끝이라는건 없어

이렇게 난 또 (fiction in fiction)
끊지 못하고 (fiction in fiction)
내 가슴 속에 끝나지 않을 이야길 쓰고 있어
널 붙잡을게 (fiction in fiction)
놓지 않을게 (fiction in fiction in fiction)
끝나지 않은 너와 나의 이야기 속에서 오늘도 in fiction

다시 한 번 더 말하지만
지금 너는 내 옆에 있다고 그렇게 믿고 있어 난
(하지만 fiction)

난 목적을 잃어버린 작가 이 소설의
끝은 어떻게 마무리 지어야 해
사랑해 사랑해 사랑해 사랑해 사랑해 이 세 글자만
써 내려가 무뎌진 펜 눈물로 얼룩진 낡은 종이 위로
행복할 수도 슬플 수도 없어 이 이야기는
지금 난 너무나도 행복한 생각에 이야기를 쓰지만
모든게 바람일 뿐이라고 여전히

난 행복한걸 (fiction in fiction in fiction)
우리 함께인걸 (fiction in fiction in fiction)
이제 시작인걸 (fiction in fiction in fiction)
끝은 없는걸 (fiction in fiction in fiction)

[p/s: this is what I call the real "high quality, emotional" song. It expressed how the person can forget their loneliness and disappointment when they lost their love, and so their fairytale love will continue to be happy forever, he even encrypted their story in diary/memorabilia, as memory that will evergreen. Music is arranged in such a melancholic manner, as it refers to the remorse of the one's person that can't let their love go..]
