Even after 16 years since their debut, all four members of T-ara came together to celebrate their anniversary, stirring memories among longtime fans.
On July 29, Ji Yeon posted on her social media account with the caption “16TH ANNIVERSARY,” sharing a group photo of all current T-ara members reunited.


In the photo, the four women are seen wearing matching T-shirts featuring their faces, posing in front of a brick wall with a playful stance reminiscent of their “Roly-Poly” era. The nostalgic pose instantly reminded fans of their signature charm from the group’s heyday.
Shortly afterward, Hyomin also shared a series of throwback photos from their past promotional activities on her own social media account with the caption “Latte” —a slang term in Korean culture akin to “Back in my day.”
She added humorous and heartfelt comments like:
“T-ara’s styling was top-tier, even by today’s standards,”
“Can’t believe it’s their 16th anniversary already,”
“It’s not even 50 years ago, but why does the photo quality look like this?”
“Totally self-indulgent, I know.”


Even Soyeon, who departed the group in 2017, took part in the celebration by posting on social media: “Happy 16th debut anniversary. It feels like time passed even faster after our 15th. Thank you for remembering and loving my voice. I’m truly grateful to all the fans who supported and stayed with me.”

Boram also sparked controversy after posting a photo celebrating the group’s 16th debut anniversary—but noticeably cropped out Hwayoung. The caption simply read, “Us!”—leading fans to speculate lingering tensions between the members, especially given the group’s past controversies. The post has reignited debates within the fandom about unity and unresolved issues.

T-ara originally debuted on July 29, 2009, and quickly rose to stardom with hit tracks like “Bo Peep Bo Peep,” “TTL,” “Roly-Poly,” “Sexy Love,” and “I Go Crazy Because of You.”
Following the departure of Boram and Soyeon in 2017, the group continued as a four-member unit. Most recently, they held a 15th anniversary fan meeting in Macau last year, showing their enduring love for fans and strong group identity.
