According to Hankuk Ilbo, T-ARA have also reunited with hit-makers Jo Young-soo and Ahn Young-min for the upcoming release. The duo had worked on previous hits by the girl group such as āDay By Dayā and āLieā.
The news comes over three months after the quartet shared their plans to make a comeback during their 12th anniversary special livestream on the livestreaming platformĀ V Live. During the broadcast, member Hyomin had revealed that the group had previously discussed the possibility of reuniting, but had āfaced a lot of obstaclesā.
āBut now, it seems to be the right time,ā she said, perĀ Soompi. āThis time, however, we think weāve found an opportunity, and I think itās the right time for us to take advantage of that opportunity.ā
T-ARAās last release was their ninth mini-album āWhatās My Name?ā, which dropped in June 2017. The girl group officially went on hiatus six months later at the beginning of 2018, after they left longtime agencyĀ MBK Entertainment.
