T-ara's Jiyeon soldiers on despite straining her knee ligament

It's just been revealed that T-ara's Jiyeon overcame her knee injury in order to participate in T-ara's last "Roly-Poly" stage. On August 25th, Jiyeon pulled her right knee ligament during choreography practice and was advised by both her doctor and her company to rest. However, Jiyeon insisted on continuing with her schedule. Jiyeon stated, "I wanted to be with the members on stage especially because this week is the last broadcast performance of 'Roly-Poly'." Her company revealed, "She has a great sense of responsibility, so despite the pain from her injury, she took painkillers and did her absolute best for the last 'Roly-Poly' performance on 'Inkigayo'. Afterwards, she even finished up her other pre-arranged schedules. The situation with her right knee has however worsened, so she is currently resting at an emergency room awaiting treatment." Core Contents Media also commented on T-ara's future activities, saying, "We will make further decisions after we observe the situation with Jiyeon's right knee." Besides saying goodbye with T-ara on music shows this past few days, Jiyeon also attended the entire recording of MBC's 3rd Idol Star Athletic Championships held yesterday at Jamsil Stadium, although she had to be helped from location to location because of her injury.
