Hello Venus singing an OST for a drama



Yoonjo has blond hair now and Alice is a brunette~

[adantatu2]

Alice looks so pretty with this hair <3
Honestly the song isn't really special, but they are so beautiful

[freedreamer]

why do they keep undermining Yoonjo

[Kouyou]

The song's not half bad. I liked the Yooyoung/Lime rap, although I found it laughable how the mike wasn't even remotely close to Nara. I guess we're not even going to pretend she's singing...? I feel bad for Nara fans but oh my goodness is that girl pretty. I'm surprised she isn't getting more attention.

PS, the song is now available on iTunes. ^^

Does Yoonjo even have lines?

Ara and Yoonjo to leave Hello Venus

Unfortunate news has come for fans of Hello Venus as word has come that Ara and Yoonjo will be leaving the group as the members all return to their original agencies.


Tricell Media, whom the girls had been formed under as a joint project between Pledis Entertainment and Fantagio, have announced that the members will be returning to their respective agencies. Thus, the four members under Fantagio will go on as Hello Venus, while the other two who are originally under Pledis will be pursuing separate activities.

Tricell Media's announcement reads as below.

"Hello.
This is Hello Venus' agency Tricell Media.
We are here to deliver sudden but major news to all the fans who have always supported and loved Hello Venus.
Fantagio and Pledis have decided to end their 'Hello Venus' joint project they've been carrying out together through Tricell Media for each of their future progress direction.
Hello Venus' 6 members will return their respective agencies - Fantagio (Alice, Nara, Lime, Yooyoung) and Pledis (Ara, Yoonjo) - and plan to carry out their activities.
Fantagio and Pledis send their deep gratitude and applause to the 6 members who have led Hello Venus with passion and effort, and promise to do their best to help the members spread their wings in a variety of entertainment fields.
Ara and Yoonjo are planning on music releases and acting challenges as their new project, while Alice, Nara, Lime, and Yooyoung will continue as Hello Venus after the team reorganization with music releases and acting gigs.
We sincerely apologize for delivering such news suddenly, but as this reorganization has been done for the progress of each member, we hope that you will look over the six members with a generous heart.
We will never forget your support and do our best to continue on active promotions.
Thank you."

IM SUPER SAD!!!!!!!!!!!
the careers of these 2 girls are so messed up.
First they were gonna be in After School, and now, they are back as trainees. WHAT!

My hope is for them to go back to After School. PLEASE PLEDIS! It's the best way...and perhaps we're in for another graduation

[AyuHamasaki01]

I wonder why the companies decided to end their joint project and why Yoonjo and Ara didn't change agencies to keep promoting as Hello Venus. Well I'm sure they have their reasons.

It would be nice to see Yoonjo and Ara debut in After School or perhaps form a duo group? Or Pledis could make a new girl group... But before any of that happens I need an After School and/or Hello Venus comeback.

A lot of members of different groups are leaving this year. Yoonjo and Ara, Sem, Eunji and Sera of Nine Muses, Eunjung of Jewelry, Nicole and Jiyoung of KARA, Sohee of Wonder Girls

that would incur a huge sum of money to break their contracts.

I hope they will debut in AS. please...AS needs more activities, what is Pledis doinggg

[AyuHamasaki01]

^Ah I see, thanks.

It's so sad to see this group splitting up. And I was wondering when they were gonna make a comeback and then I read this news

[adantatu2]

I'm so sad, Hello Venus without them is going to be so different.
At least I hope they can join After School, UEE is leaving soon (according to her in a magazine).

O.O what magazine!
Yea I think adding them will really REALLY benefit AS. I mean, if that is Pledis' plan, I think it's ALRIGHT? back where they rightfully belong...i guess? the girls trained for the drums afterall.

and...I think Ara can rightfully succeed Jung-A (when she graduates) and Yoonjo for UEE...(and hopefully that Eyoung, Kaeun subunit will appear one day LOL)

Hello Venus introduce two new members with concept photos for comeback


Hello Venus are finally ready to officially unveil the new additions to their group!

Partnering with music-making machine Brave Brothers, Hello Venus will make their return with not just one, but two new members. Although former members Ara and Yoonjo will certainly be missed, and despite the change of member lineup, Hello Venus stays true to its name as a group of lovely girls that radiate with a goddess-like beauty and have a sweet sound. Fans can also look forward to what the new members Yeoreum ('Summer') and Seoyoung have to add to the group.

Check out more of their teaser photos released exclusively through Naver Music on their promotion page here or below!

In the bottom picture from left to right: Nara, Yeoreum, Alice, Yooyoung, Seoyoung and Lime

I couldn't even recognize them

EDIT: Blonde doesn't really suit Nara imo.

[Kouyou]

Sooooo happy Hello Venus is making a comeback. I missed them! Like others are saying, though, they are practically unrecognizable. Lime looks the most different. I miss her old hairstyle... it was way cuter. Alice looks great with brown hair but I still prefer her as a blonde. The two new girls are cute although unremarkable. They should do a Birth of Venus season two.

[Utena]

wow so different, I couldn't even recognize my favorite Nara...

[adantatu2]

It was hard to say who was who when I saw the pic, but now is clear.
I hope the song isn't crap, Brave Brothers can make catchy and amazing songs, but sometimes they're only releasing similar and boring songs.

[freedreamer]

Yea im so skeptical of Brave Bros
i thnk Yeoreom and Seoyeong fit in really well!!!

but it still kinda really sucks Ara and Yoonjo are just gone like THAT.. ><
