Heard the Good News?

We Got Married is showing again!

For those who are impatient and just want to watch without subs first, here's the link


I shall be watching and trying my best to understand what they're saying.
Hopefully T-ara appear in the show again soon. (just in case there's another cancellation)

[eng sub] T-ara Section TV Interview

Another sub contributed by Milkyway.
Enjoy~


[eng sub] T-ara Section TV Interview by TimeToTiara

[eng sub] 110825 Mnet Wide Open Studio

A very helpful friend by the name of Milkyway has help made English Subtitles for the following video.

If any of you are available, why not try a little subbing, it helps improves your language abilities too.

Harmonizing

Sorry in advance for the recent onslaught of SoYeon-related post; after all, she is my bias and I have been doing some intense subbing of the radio show.

In short, the radio show is one of the hardest shows I've attempted - it has all members of T-ara talking together, puns in Korean, sub-standard Chinese subtitles, and worst of all, there's no video to look at while subbing! (but the content makes the subbing worthwhile)

Anyway, here's SoYeon's impromptu harmonizing to YoSeob's singing of GOD's "Lies".


While I'm not a singer, I do sing once in a while, and harmonizing is something I have been trying to do (without any success).

[Eng Sub] Weekly Idol (not by me!)

Still subbing the Radio show, believe me, it's worth the wait, so pardon me for just dumping another Subbed Video.


This is subbed by YouTuber stupidgerxp, click through to the channel for the other parts.

Also, if you haven't already realized, there are 2 request pages - one new and the other, old - and only the newer one has Disqus commenting enabled, so please use the newer one if you want your requests to reach my email inbox directly. (The old one will still be around while I go through the requests.)

[hard eng sub] 090729 Radio Star (T-ara Debut)

Tried uploading onto YouTube, but once again, YouTube decided to block the video. In the end, I had to break the videos into smaller parts (Facebook has a 100mb per video limit).

Here you go:

[New Project] T-ara's Debut Show

I'll be subbing this:

This video will be my raw source; if you know of a higher res version, do tell me.
If it's already subbed, tell me too.

And by the way, I'm trying out a new comments system - Disqus; it's importing the old comments right now. Hopefully it solves the problem of me not getting notified properly and accurately when there are new comments.

Not 100%, but close

Here's the list I managed to come up with:

T-ara Princess

I've been trying to find Eng Subs for this, and finally...


For the whole show, support the original uploader iTheTimes

Hard Subs... and more words

Hard subs are up. Click through to enjoy the final episode of Pretty Boys for T-ara with hard coded subtitles.

But if you don't mind reading words by me that aren't subtitles, do read on for what I have to say.

- Don't ever think that translator plays the most important role in a sub group (I did). Other roles are tough as well.

- Timers have to listen for when the person starts speaking, and if you watched the cooking episodes, you'll realized how difficult that can be with all 7 members of T-ara speaking at the same time. (Although it may not be that bad of a thing watching the same parts over and over again to synchronize the timing if you really like T-ara)

- Encoders and uploaders, by virtue of their being in the later stages of production, are expected to be as speedy as can be. While many may think that all encoders and uploaders have to do is to click the "encode" or "upload" buttons and wait for their mega powerful computer or breakneck lightning speed broadband to do the work, that is simply not true. Programs tend to crash and internet intermittent, and once any of these happens, a full re-encode or re-upload is needed. Consequently, while encoding and uploading, a periodic check is needed; And until the job is done, no one can feel safe.

The End

Finally, the last episode is subbed too (soft is done, hard is still being encoded).

But before you enjoy the subs, here's some words from T-ARACHINA at the end of their last video. Do read through it for without them, there won't be this English subs.

still thinking of when we just started on this production journey of Pretty Boys for T-ara
but time flies
and it's time for us to bid Pretty Boys farewell

unknowingly, in these 4 months that we've been with Pretty Boys
there's too much to express, the words may not be eloquent
a heartfelt thanks go out to those of you reading this
thanks for being with us all this while
is it because of your anticipation that we penned those words

thanks go out to all the eager members from the T-ARACHINA sub group
the responsible translator zhu-er, humorous translator serit1989
speedy linlin
overpowering Juan
Fally and dqm912 who are always around unconditionally
BgChen who spent countless sleepless nights encoding
and also everyone from Tai-T-ARA fan group who has been helping out

we've come to the moment we have to wave each other goodbye with a smile
do treasure all the times spent with T-ARA
continue loving... loving fiercely
this file is ending, we'll meet in the next....

[English Subtitles] Pretty Boys for T-ara

Pretty Boy Episode 11 [Final]

The episode numbers from the Korean sites are confusing, but more importantly, this is the last episode.
And even more importantly, read what T-ARACHINA has to say here.

Funny T-ara

Here's Eun Jung on Gag Concert. It's a nice show so do watch the whole segment (not whole show).

The audience were so surprised when Eun Jung entered. (especially the lady's expression at 1m12s)

It's not subbed by me, so remember to thank that original (one-time) subber on the YouTube channel.

Pretty Boys Special Episode 4

Not surprisingly, another "special" episode.
(seems like part4 got my account another copyright hit, I'll be uploading future episodes on another YouTube account)

Pretty Boys Special Episode 3

(if you can't see part 1, go here)
Another "episode" of Pretty Boys

How JangWoo Kissed HyoMin and JiYeon

Just in case you're wondering...


If you want to hear him singing the song leading up to the kiss, go to 25s.

Old Show, New Subs [110403 Bouquet by PJYSubs]

Remember this?


I recently found it subbed at PJYSubs. (I strongly recommend bookmarking this site)
Just to spoil the show, the lady is Qri's mother.

However, if you don't have time for such old shows, here's a gist of what the show is about: Together with all 7 members of T-ara, Qri's mother is invited to the show; a panel of celebrities is supposed to guess whose mother she is through a series of questioning.

Things to look out for in the show:
T-ara talking about boyfriends
Eun Jung and So Yeon (almost) kissing
Qri, Eun Jung and Ji Yeon crying

T-ara Survived This

With the impending revolution, I did some reading up on some past criticisms and problems T-ara managed to pulled through. Here's the share:

Qri's role as a "vixen" is a variety show to test how strong the love between a real couple actually is. As a result, Netizens leave hateful comments on Qri’s minihompy
This was before debut when she's only 21.

Pretty Boys Episode 10

Worry not, I'm still alive and subbing; and so here's the actual episode 10, SOFT SUBS, hard one will be ready tomorrow (I'm in Singapore, you do the time conversion).
