Yesterday, T-ara’s Eunjung slipped on ice outside of her dormitory braking her kneecap, authorities reported. At the time of the injury, heavy snowfall was reported in the Seoul area, which resulted in black ice covering local roads.
Eunjung was rushed to the emergency room and received brief x-rays on her injured knee. Doctors at the hospital reported that Eunjung ruptured her kneecap tendon (also known as patellar tendon rupture), and that she will need to walk in a cast for at least six weeks.
“We’ll closely monitor Eunjung’s recovery process and decide on her future schedules,” her agency was quoted as saying.
According to Core Contents Media, Eunjung was heading home around midnight on January 24, following the practice session for “Lovey Dovey.”
T-ara spent all of August working without end to promote themselves. The girls are taking a 10-day vacation in February, which some sources are calling a, “Much needed break.”
