T-ara's "Gossip Girls" Comes In!

T-ara's new Japan Album "Gossip Girls"
  I'm not quite sure what K-pop's adoration for the phrase "Gossip Girl" is, but  after both Rainbow AND Girls Generation had albums with that title, I knew something was up, and now we have T-ara's latest Japanese album with the title of the same name! This is their first full album since Treasure Box, and fortunately, this one has a lot more original songs than the two previous ones (which were mostly Japan versions of their Korean songs) including the latest single which I talked about here, La'boon/Lead the Way.
 As usual, the Japan releases are a bit more toned down and regular in size compared to the ultra-extravagent Korean albums, but still very, very nice, and i have to say that Gossip Girls is actually wuite beautifully packaged- with a hard clear plastic slipcase, photobooklet and hardcover CD digipak as well as a bonus photo (of which it was Jiyeon) and a trading card (of my bias Hyomin!!!), this was a full order!
 Additionally, I ordered the DIAMOND EDITION, or, rather, "Version B", this one came with a bonus DVD which included an hour-long Special featuring T-ara playing games at Tokyo Fantasyland to ultimately win a trip to Hawaii! Second Place is to a Japan Onsen which is still pretty good, but the losing team does a punishment!
Teams were broken up into pairs: Soyeon and Boram VS Eunjung and Jiyeon VS Hyomin and Qri, 
Basically they played amusement room games: Air Hockey, Basketball Toss, Pop-Gun Shooting Gallery, Bowling, etc. Super cute reactions from the girls when they win and also when they lose, probably the most hilarious is when they play Ping Pong and Soyeon has never played it before so keeps making mistakes, LOL!
OK, off to take this album out for a spin!
