Life After the Peninsula: What a Waste to Give T-ara to Someone Else

Li Huaiyuan was relentlessly attacked online for doing good deeds. Reborn, he became the owner of a bookstore and the anonymous singer Mr. Shu. After four years by his side, Quan Baolan and Lee Qri finally began living together as a trio. IU walked into the bookstore, going from kindred spirit to the one who broke down his barriers. As they grew closer, she gradually became his Miss Demian. Park Hyomin was warm-hearted and bright, carrying the world’s kindness within her. She served as a bridge between T-ara and Girls’ Generation, and became sworn sisters with Jessica Jung, one cool and one fiery. Lim Yoona’s radiant smile sealed their promise in the candlelight. Kim Taeyeon and Park Soyeon were both his fans. After years of watching each other from across the divide, they finally shook hands and made peace. And of course, there was IU’s monster quartet: Miss Shu, Choi Sulli; Baby Dragon, Park Jiyeon; and mermaid princess Goo Hara. As well as the steadfast Ham Eunjung, who stayed by his side quietly, without a word, never fighting or clamoring for anything. This is not a story about one person deliberately saving another. It is about people keeping each other company and lighting one another’s way through loss and new encounters, walking hand in hand toward the rest of their lives.
