Last year, T-ara's Jiyeon put off going to college and this year again, she will put off her college education.

T-ara's agency Core Contents Meda said to OBS that, "With Jiyeon's and T-ara's activities in Japan and her acting career, Jiyeon is already going to have a full schedule so she will delay her college education."

Last year it was revealed Jiyeon was thinking of going to college and taking the CSAT, but she postponed it and said she would think about it again for this year. With T-ara's Japanese activities and her acting schedule colliding, Jiyeon will have practically no time for going to college, so this year also, she will put it off.

According to her agency, Jiyeon does plan to go to college when she has more time.

Meanwhile, T-ara will spread their activities throughout Asia with concerts/showcases in Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia.

KBS’ sitcom ‘Shut Up Family’ has confirmed that T-ara’s Jiyeon and Ham Eunjung’s cameo appearances will be edited out from the show.

A representative from the production team stated, “We have decided to remove Eunjung and Jiyeon’s cameo from tomorrow’s episode. Many viewers have repeatedly requested that their portions be cut out.”

Originally, Eunjung and Jiyeon’s cameo was supposed to air on the 28th in the sitcom ‘Shut Up Family’. However, the staff decided against airing the appearance, due to heavy opposition from the public.

Meanwhile, Eunjung was cast as the lead role in SBS drama ‘Five Fingers’, but with continuous public backlash due to T-ara’s bullying controversy, she was removed from her role.

Having recently exited on MBC’s ‘We Got Married’ and SBS ‘Five Fingers’, things are getting worse for T-ara’s Eunjung as her and Jiyeon’s cameo appearances on ‘Shut Up Family’ may be removed.

Eunjung and Jiyeon were scheduled to make an appearance in ‘Shut Up Family’. According to sources, both T-ara members already recorded a brief cameo a long time ago before their serious bullying controversy happened. However, the sitcom’s staff is said to currently be contemplating whether to air the cameo appearances or not.

It was originally scheduled for them to appear as early as next week. However, because of the big controversy that happened during the start of the Olympics with T-ara, the production crew is unsure if they want to put Jiyeon and Eunjung into the ‘Shut Up Family’ show or cancel the appearance like SBS did for ‘Five Fingers’.

Comedian Jang Dong-hyuk (he’s the guy who’s been MCing a few eps of Shinhwa Broadcast, eg the Olympics Channel and the School Channel) has revealed that Shinhwa member Eric is a fan of girl group T-ara.

Jang Dong-hyuk was the MC for T-ara’s commemorative fanmeeting for the inauguration of their official fanclub QUEEN’S held on 14 July, where he said, “I uploaded a photo that I took with T-ara in the waiting room on my Facebook page and Eric left a message telling me to tell Jiyeon that he’s a fan of hers.”

To that, Jiyeon replied, “Uncle Eric, please show lots of love to T-ara, and keep watching out for and support our activities. Thank you.”

Jang Dong-hyuk then tried to prompt Jiyeon to say one of Eric’s famous lines from the drama ‘Phoenix’, “Eric-oppa, because of you my heart is burning”, but Jiyeon deflected the request and in a show of love for her fans, said that she had to get permission from QUEEN’S before she could do that.

Much to her delight, T-ara’s Jiyeon was given time off to spend a day with her parents at home recently, her first visit in more than four years.

Living in shared accommodations and keeping a jam-packed schedule means such outings are rare for T-ara.

“Finally my dream has come true,” the 19-year-old said on Twitter Thursday. “I’m back home with my parents again after four years apart. Today I’m going to ask my mom to cook me some spicy rice cakes.”

Her father also surprised the star at an autograph signing event recently, prompting Jiyeon to shed tears.

Fans that encountered the tweet were quick to congratulate her by saying, “I hope you have a great time with your family,” “enjoy the rice cakes” and so on.

But it’s already back to the grind, and an official fan meet is scheduled for today. The event gained a lot of press coverage a few weeks ago when the group decided to waive admission fees for the event.

Just two weeks to go, T-ara offered refunds of 10,000 won ($9) per seat because it didn’t want to “burden the fans.”

Singer IU reveals the truth about her best friend, T-ara's Jiyeon.

Along with the fact that they were both born in 1993 and both got into the entertainment business at a young age, the two have a lot in common. Although they had previously seen each other through music programs, they finally became close through the 2010 SBS variety show "Heroes".

The T-ara members had stopped living in their dorms and for the past 6 months, they had been going to their activities from their house. The first person that Jiyeon had invited to her house was IU.

After bringing toilet paper to Jiyeon's house it seemed as if IU and Jiyeon would not stop talking however after seeing Jiyeon's room for the first time, IU stopped and stated, "I thought it would be filled with pink princess-like clothing and tons of accessories but it's actually really plain."

She also added, "I thought Jiyeon was a city girl at first so it was hard for us to become friends at first." then went on to explain how they became friends.

After inviting IU, Jiyeon then tried to make some snacks. However IU tried to stop Jiyeon saying, "Please don't cook. Although she's good at dancing, acting and basically anything, she's not good at cooking. I think she's worse than me. When she first invited me, she told me that she would make Samgaetang for me but I stopped her right away."

You will be able to see Jiyeon and IU's dinner on KBS2's 'Star Life Theater' 'The youth sparkling more than a gem, T-ara' episode.
