T-ara Eunjung is starring in a horror film titled "White: Cursed Melody".



The title song "White" released and this song is sing by the movie's fictional group "Pink Dolls".
Eunjung is also one of the member in this group, thus you will be hearing her voice appearing in the song.



In June 2011, it was announced that T-ara would be making a comeback with the title track "Roly Poly" on July 1, 2011.

It was also announced that the group would be advancing into the Japanese market with a showcase on July 5.

As of June 14 2011, Core Contents Media has announced that Hyomin shall be taking over the leadership for this album and for their Japanese promotions.
They further explained saying, “In order to instill a sense of responsibility in each of the members, we have decided to change the leader for each new album release.
We will be passing the leader role onto members who have not been leader yet.
The reason Eunjung was leader during their debut was because she and Hyomin had trained the longest with T-ara, and we felt that she would be the best fit".

They continued, “Likewise, Hyomin has been chosen for T-ara’s Japanese and ‘Roly-Poly’ promotions for the same reasons as Eunjung.
We have made this decision after much discussions with both the members and our agency.”



It was announced on June 8, 2011 that T-ara would be making their comeback in July with John Travolta Wannabe.
It was also revealed that the title track is composed by Shinsadong Tiger and Choi Gyu Sung, who had previously worked with T-ara on songs like Bo Peep Bo Peep.
The album's name comes from the movie Saturday Night Fever which starred John Travolta.
T-ara came up with the concept themselves after watching the movie.

On June 24th, Core Contents Media released a 59-second teaser of T-ara's title track "Roly Poly".
The video was released three days earlier than originally scheduled, due to the request of fans.
