Recently, South Korea's tvN new variety show "Miss Back" has aroused everyone's hot discussion, this documentary that records the lives of the retired members of the girl group, allowing the audience to see the not-so-glamorous life behind the glamorous idols. In the latest issue, T-ARA member Park Chao-yeon told her own story, which is worth noting, which is park Joo-yeon's first personal variety show resource three years after leaving the group.
At the beginning of the show, the camera filmed Park Chao-yeon in the beauty room makeup and styling, Zhaoyan said that this is her first time in three years to attend the public stage, followed her to the venue, the huge solidarity of the members of the female group present are envious, "worthy of the popularity of T-ARA" Everyone sighed.
However, as soon as the picture turned, Zhaoyan took the script in the background to do the final rehearsal before the performance, and everyone knew that this was not Zhaoyan's personal activity, but just a friendship auxiliary host for the fans of the younger generation to meet.
Looking at the offspring who interacted with the fans on the stage and sang loudly, Zhaoyan's figure looked very lonely, once she was also the one standing in such cheers and applause, once she was also an idol who shone brightly around the stage with flowers!
On the way home, Zhaoyan also thought about whether to also get a fan meeting, after all, she had not stood on the stage and sang for a long time, and she had not appeared in public events for a long time, but she finally hesitated, because she was worried that she did not have so many fans... This is just a 1500-person fan meeting, according to the popularity of T-ARA at that time, such a scale is really a small witch.
After returning home, The first thing Joo Yeon did was to open the computer to see the T-ARA fan forum, and at this time, the poster of the forum had been replaced by a picture of Lee Ju-ri, Hyun Eun-jin, Park Hyo-min, and Park Ji-yeon, and Joo-yeon looked at the last posting time of the forum, August (the show was broadcast in October), and she felt that perhaps many fans were tired of waiting.
After leaving the group, Zhaoyan, the blank period is too long, the popularity is not as good as before, signed a new company in July this year, but also released a new song, but Zhaoyan is still in a very unconfident state, even when the juniors ask for help to host, she is also hesitating, afraid that she will drag the younger generations behind.
Later, everyone also talked about the days when T-ARA's bad reviews were overwhelming, and Zhaoyan admitted that the team did not dare to move in China at all, because returning to China meant being scolded. The most chilling one was that they experienced the "10 minutes" event, that is, the group performed on stage, and the audience all turned around, facing the stage with their backs, without clapping their hands or cheering, without any reaction.
So there is no way, they have to shift the focus of their activities to foreign countries, their efforts have indeed reaped the rewards, T-ARA in foreign popularity soared, gained a lot of fans love, and they are still not popular in their own countries. There was even a very serious car accident in Zhaoyan, and fans actually did not have any sympathy, and even some people commented, "Unfortunately, obviously you can send it away." "Such a vicious heart is really breathtaking!
Look at Liu Huaying, who single-handedly pulled the T-ARA off the altar, after leaving the group, in the case of T-ARA members helping to carry the black cauldron, it passed a few years brightly. After the truth was revealed, the acting career was not greatly affected. Even this year, he ushered in the film script of his first leading role, and the pictorial endorsement has not stopped.

What is even more shocking is that after the truth was exposed, Liu Huaying responded to this matter for the first time in a variety show summary, she said: "We just had the inevitable contradiction of girls together." "Is this a contradiction? Is this an inevitable contradiction? Other members of the T-ARA, who have been carrying the black cauldron for this "contradiction" for five years, the acting career has been hit by the destruction, and has been spurned by Korean fans for five years.
The same is the withdrawal of the group, one is the right-hand man who is dedicated to the glorious retirement of the group, and the other is the black pot for the group and is exposed afterwards, why is the development of the two so different?
South Korea debuts in an average of hundreds of regiments every year, how many can be remembered by history in the end? Now the members who once stood at the front of the food chain of idol groups competing for the group are difficult to die after leaving the group, so how do those groups at the end of the team survive? The brilliance of the past is only the psychological trauma of the professional time after the storm. After many idols leave the group, they cannot adapt to normal life, whether it is psychological or physical condition.
In this episode, there is also a film of the life of Liu Shiluo, a former member of 9muses, who got up early in the morning and had not yet had time to eat breakfast, so he first poured himself medicine (for treatment), and when he went out, he could not take the subway due to panic disorder, and could only take the bus. Zhaoyan said that she understood very well, she said that when she was sick (mental illness), she was particularly afraid of being discovered by others, so at the beginning she did not dare to see a doctor in time, and many times she survived on her own.
Korean idols, which have developed somewhat deformed industrial chains, never put the human rights of idols first, crazy squeeze all the value of artists when they are active, young men and women pay an unimaginable price for every glamorous performance, and finally youth passes, looks old, there is no popular idol who has accumulated wealth, can only tremble in the swamp of life, and how many groups that have been brilliant can enjoy the life of "after retirement"?
