Seven-member girl group T-ara celebrated their first win on cable music program "M! CountDown" on Thursday with their latest song.

T-ara beat out last week's winner 2PM and 4minute's member Hyun-A with their title track "Roly-Poly" from their new album titled "John Travolta Wannabe."

"We want to thank all those who helped us make this album and we want to share this award with everyone at our agency, our managers as well as our parents and most importantly our fans," the members of T-ara were quoted as saying.

T-ara, composed of members Hyomin, Boram, Eunjung, Jiyeon, Soyeon, Qri and Hwa-young, made their debut in July 2009 with singles "Lie" and "Wanna Play."

They released their first studio album "Absolute First Album" in December 2009, which produced two hit songs "Bo Peep Bo Peep" and "I Go Crazy Because Of You."

The girls recently held their debut showcase in Japan and will release their song "Bo Peep Bo Peep" in the country this September.
