T-ara’s rumored eighth member, Areum Lee, might be around 45 years old

So with Dani being the ninth member, who was a child picked up like a street walker, it’s rumored that trainee Areum Lee will be T-ara‘s eighth member.

Unlike Dani, she looks old as hell, so maybe they picked her out in a nursing home.

Areum Lee is a trainee under Core Contents Media (CCM) and she fits the description that CCM gave last month, “The newly added 8th member of T-ara is 18 years old (19 in Korea) and possesses a great visual and talent. The new member will work with T-ara for their upcoming album starting this summer.”

Areum Lee is described as being very beautiful and vocally talented, she is also 18 years old (19 in Korea) and boasts a height of 5’6″. In addition to fitting the description, there are rumors that her friends prematurely congratulated her on joining the group through social networking sites.

She’s either:

1) Not actually 18.

2) The female Benjamin Button.

Seriously though, she looks like a muppet.

  1. She looks young to me :o

    • That second picture looks like she’s at least 30.

      • I honestly don’t see it >_<"
        It's probably my optimistic mind deluding my objectification of age.
        She seems refreshing and pure though. I'm sure through the magic of makeup she'll gain more acceptance :)

  2. Another Account

    She looks like most idols to me minus having a stylist so….

    • You could land a 747 on her forehead.

        I didn’t want to say it but when they get her that real stylist, they’ll give her some fringe. It worked wonders for Rihanna.

  3. I don’t know..I’m pretty excited for 9ara
    Whether they like it or not..their old members are still there so I don’t see much point of being unhappy and naggy

  4. She looks 30, but only after having a facelift (which is why her facial features are all distorted), so she’s actually 45.

  5. Two 21 year olds or a 12 and a 30. All the same

  6. Looks like a little girl to me.

  7. Bitch please most unnirs look like that without make up

  8. lol ‘she looks like a muppet’

  9. She looks like a normal 19 year old to me. >_>

  10. She’s a strange one

  11. She doesn’t look that old, but she does look a bit awkward. It could just be the photos. She might be the most attractive in the group.

  12. Oh come on… she’s not the prettiest girl ever (really not), but it’s hard to judge someone with just a few predebut no make-up pics. She doesn’t look that bad in some of those : http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m41n7dkood1qh6f6to1_500.jpg

  13. So is CCM trying to make T-ara the next AKB48? I wonder when they will reveal the next 40 members.

    lol, she looks old to you? yeah, you’re definitely asian :] btw she looks like the girl from coffe prince to me. At least her description said something about vocal talent, the 12 year old’s desciption didn’t sound talented at all. Adding more talentless visuals to T-ara who will barely have lines is so pointless -.- a part of me was hoping they would actually take some members out when I heard that rumour. idk, I don’t wish them luck with this

  15. Only rumored? Because Diadem people were pretty sure she would be the 8th member. Already have 300+ photos of her there.

  16. does anyone else find it ridiculous that CCM threatened to kick out any members who didn’t work hard and don’t deserve to be in the group and then say they are adding a new member who has ZERO training, and did absolutely nothing to deserve to be in the group just because she was pretty and the CEO is a pedophile?
