A witness accounted, “On that day, there were no parking spaces available. The parking administrator tried to block them, but the two vehicles pushed through and parked in the handicap spots. We found out that the vehicles belonged to Kara as they were in the cars. Even though the administrator kept telling them to remove their cars, they ignored him and waited to finish their business before leaving.” He continued, “Goo Hara and the other members were busy eating a hotdog and going to the restroom. They appeared very nonchalant. There were cars waiting to park in that [handicapped] spot. They waited and waited before turning back to leave. It was uncomfortable watching them [Kara] and the way they were enjoying such special treatment because they were celebrities.”
A representative of the Chungnam GongJoo Jungahn’s Rest Stop confirmed, “We received several complaints and went out to check the area. We saw two vehicles and Kara parked in the handicapped parking area.”
In related news, Kara made their long-awaited comeback this past weekend with their new title track “Pandora.”

DSP posted an apology:
Hello. It's DSP media.
We are making an announcement relating to today's issue about Kara's car being parked at a handicap place in the rest stop.
We checked with the manager that was there
and it has been confirmed that the car that had KARA and other staffs in it visited the Jungan rest stop on the 25th. And the two cars parked and stayed for about 15 minutes.
We, DSP media, apologize for those who we affected at the parking lot that day and to those who all care for KARA. In the future, we'll make sure it doesn't happen again.
Thank you.

Apparently the "reporter" who brought this up was the same one who asked KARA at their press conference about the Dokdo Island Issue. So someone seems to have it out for KARA.
Even with DSP's apology, I think the girls should apologize too. There isn't a valid excuse for this to happen, they must have known when they came back to the car as well. Even if they weren't driving the car or were sleepy, it's the group's reputation that is getting blasted not the staff members who parked there. Pretty sure they are feeling horrible right now..
Yeah you're right.. Girls need to apologize too since it's about their reputation..
ReplyDeleteand I really don't like that reporter~ especially when he asked the very unecessary question during the press conference in KARA's showcase.. ><
It seems that he really want to hurt our girl.. huhuhuhu..
even with just the facts, had it not been kara i would have quickly concluded a classical case of celebrity arrogance... this is bad ><
ReplyDeleteThey need to apologize that's true. If they don't, this'll get blown up easily and affect their reputation.
ReplyDeleteThis is a small issue but you know...netizens.
I'm just waiting for this to come out on AKP so I can be there to protect our girls in the front lines lol.
ReplyDeleteThe reporter was using words that make KARA girls sounds so ignorant.
ReplyDeleteDSP also claimed that the girls were sleeping in the car at that time.
ReplyDeleteAnd there's no photos of the girls as well..
It's also the same reporter that claimed Kara's outfit was too... revealing???
