[blab] I ♥ this post !!

KARA’s success comes from the SYNERGISTIC efforts of EACH and EVERY members of KARA!!

I have to get something off my chest!! I am fed-up of people  (Kamilia and non-Kamilia) making statements that is pure bullshit and inconsiderate.

The thing that triggers THIS personal rant is some comments of how ‘Hara SINGLE-HANDEDLY’ increases the popularity of KARA …

WTF??! Yes, i admit she is one of the more well-known KARA members, the one with the most number of fans in fancafes or whatnots etc etc… Well, she IS Kara’s VISUAL and human beings are born with the tendency to like or pursue beauty.. so it’s not really surprising, right?
But to claim that Hara or any of your biases SINGLE-HANDEDLY is responsible for the popularity Kara is currently enjoying, is too much! Such statement is audaciously arrogant and inconsiderate.. and very wrong.
IMHO, each KARA member, at some point in time, played a part in their journey to become what they are now - one of the best and well-known Kpop / Hallyu Wave group. And now I feel that it has come full circle - every member has played or are playing their roles in promoting KARA.

During KARA’s hiatus (after SungHee left), everyone except maybe Kamilia newbies know that Seungyeon was relentless in her efforts to keep the KARA name alive, appearing on shows - musical, variety etc (Family Needed, Jpop Wave) She practically did everything to make sure people don’t forget KARA (even though they were inactive as a group).

After getting 2 new members, they began activities as a group. During this time, although each member guested on shows, Nicole outstandingly stepped it up (excuse the pun) through her segment ‘Level With Me’ in Star Golden Bell. SGB is broadcasted on KBS World, which is viewed by many countries outside Korea. Nicole’s cute and dorky antics won her lots of followers (like myself) who also became Kamilias. Then there was also Intro to Vet Science etc…

The third cycle (or phase, call it what u want XD) came via Hara, who shined brightly through her determined character in Invincible Youth. Then the public came to love her and acknowledge her as the visual. Hence, the CFs and magazine shoots followed.

At about the same time, Gyuri (the quiet but formidable leader) made her slow and steady stake on the hearts of more fans through her DJ-stint in ‘Shim ShimTapa’. Then came her casting in the ‘200 Pounds of Beauty’ musical. Gyuri calmly showed everyone (fans and non-fans) that KARA are not just ‘pretty faces’ but they are ambitious and committed individuals who have a lot to offer besides prancing on stage.
And now, like I said, it has come ‘full circle’ with Jiyoung becoming a regular on Invincible Youth 2. With her natural cuteness and bold attitude, I am confident that she too will follow in the footsteps of her unnies and further promote KARA.

With all my arguments above, I believe that each and every members of KARA have contributed to their group’s popularity and success. So, those who want to claim otherwise, present your case first before you do it!!

Because I know other Kamilias feel the same way too. 5=1 makes the BEST FCUKIN FIVE!!

thank you!! 

KARA's a group where every member contributed to the rise. We have our biases but supporting the whole group is just as important. The more the fandom grows, it seems like the more the division there is.. I hope we can look that the whole picture. KARA is not KARA without those 5 members, I just remember that feeling of uncertainty earlier this year and it was not good. Be mindful and respectful of all the members. Give credit where it's due, it all goes back to KARA.
