Jiyeon’s Solo
In 2018, after 10 years working under the auspices of MBK Entertainment, T-Ara finally chose to leave the agency. However, they said that they would not disband.
One member, Hyomin, indicated that the four remaining T-Ara members; Hyomin, Eunjung, Jiyeon, and Qri, might still be active together as a group, regardless of whether or not they would take shelter under the same agency. Not only that, Hyomin also said that she and her group-mates would take a break to think seriously about the future of T-Ara. However, she also said that their fans shouldn’t worry too much.
A representative from MBK Entertainment has confirmed the news, saying that the four T-Ara’s members contracts ended in December, 2017, and the future of the group was now in the hands of its members.
Since their debut in 2009, the girl group has produced various works that got a lot of love from the public, Bo Peep Bo Peep and Lovey Dovey, for example. In the course of the group’s career they’ve also undergone several changes in membership and have been involved in controversies around bullying.
Before finally leaving MBK, the group released the album What’s My Name in June. Supposedly, this album was made by six of the members; Boram, Soyeon, Qri, Eunjung, Hyomin, and Jiyeon. However, the album finally only involved four members, because MBK failed to come to agreements with Boram and Soyeon regarding their contracts which ended in May, 2017.
Leaving MBK Entertainment, T-Ara’s Jiyeon Signs a New Contract with a Chinese Label!
On May 17, news emerged that the former T-ARA member, Park Ji-yeon, signed an exclusive contract with an influential Chinese label. According to reports, Park Ji-yeon entered into an exclusive partnership with Longzhen Culture Development back in April, 2018.

Now that a deal had been struck, Longzhen Culture Development plans to provide full support for Jiyeon as she pursues activities in different fields. Since Jiyeon debuted as part of T-ARA in 2009, she has developed herself as a proficient singer and actress. As such, she is expected to continue these activities as a solo act. The company will manage her music, acting projects, performances, broadcasts, and commercial deals.
