Members of Japan’s popular girl group AKB48 recently confessed, “We have a lot of KARA fans amongst our members.”
AKB48 attended the press conference for the “2010 Asia Song Festival“, and expressed their thoughts on fellow girl group KARA. “It’s an extreme honor to be able to stand on the same stage as such an amazing group like KARA. We have a lot of fans of KARA in our group, making this much more meaningful for us.”
KARA returned with their own set of compliments, “It’s an incredible joy to be able to perform with one of Japan’s greatest girl groups. We’re thankful that they even came all the way to Korea just to perform. We will work our hardest.”
Regarding their popularity in Japan, KARA revealed, “As opposed to changing ourselves to better fit Japan, we feel like one of our greatest strengths was playing up the unique color of KARA instead. We’ll soon be returning to Japan and begin promoting a track titled ‘Jumping‘. It’ll be a fun song that everyone can follow along and dance to, just like ‘Mister.’”
AKB48 continued, “It’s an honor for us as well to be able to stand on this stage in representation of Japan. We’ll work hard to show our youth.”
AKB48’s producer, Akimoto Yasushi, commented, “KARA’s dance performance is captivating. This is an aspect that AKB48 can never follow. They are currently still improving.”
The festival will be held on October 23rd at 6 PM.
