On September 7th, KARA broadcasted a two-hour live YouTube session detailing the 30 days leading up to the release of “Step”. They also held a live Q&A session in between the documentary cuts, in which they candidly answered some questions from fans.
The YouTube session gave fans the opportunity to see KARA’s many different sides, as the girls didn’t hesitate to share everything from their completely makeup-free faces to their struggles during dance practices.
Fans got to follow the girls for KARA-related group projects, but the YouTube session also shared behind-the-scenes clips from their personal activities as well. Gyuri aired footage from her musical practice and ‘ShimShimTapa’ radio broadcasts (which featured a cameo from co-host, Super Junior‘s Shindong). Seungyeon showed backstage clips from ‘Animal Farm‘, which she hosts along with Shin Dong Yeob. Meanwhile, Goo Hara and Jiyoung took fans to their Cosmopolitian shoot for their gorgeous photospread.
In between clips were short Q&A sessions, in which KARA answered interesting questions from their fans. allkpop translated most of the questions for you, so check them out below:

*All the members laugh*
i barely see nicole in that video. -.-
ReplyDeleteNicole, as usual was in her own world while letting others do the talking =D
ReplyDeleteAnd when she does speak, half of the time it is about food....our cutie shikshin
just a little disappointed that we did not get to see her reaction about the time when the song was first officially released and played on radio.... it seems that Gyuri explained that Nicole was sick and thus did not film that part
I know.... Cole just isn't the type of person to be really active and play it up for the fans.. she'd rather do her own thing XD
ReplyDeleteAw I would've liked seeing her reaction to STEP being released.
