[Gifs] Heroes EP 7.

Cole's got an arm for throwing lol.. Poor IU ..she did not know what she was in for...

Inna and Sooah congratulating Cole!

Really the first time Cole and Inyoung had a skinship interaction.. seems like Inyoung was heading towards Cole anyways..

[Info] KARA History being Made.

KARA has officially just sold 50,000 + Mister singles in Japan!!..

Just amazing accomplishment for KARA. All the hard work paid off and the Japanese are showing their love. It's going to be fun when the girls go back to Japan.

*Something has been itching me, I guess some KARA fans might get carried away and boast about KARA (though we do have a right too, we are proud of KARA) but just be careful not to start stuff that doesn't need to be started. Btw, KARA's competition is KARA it's not another girl group. What KARA members do is not defined by another group.

[Info] Jay is looking at KARA!

From Jay's fan meet in Korea:

At the question which girl group he has his eyes on, the fans said not to do this one but the MC kept calming(?) them and asked it.
It was Kara. He said he thinks their skills are increasing more and more~ he did the butt shaking dance for us~

Translated by: jjyh22 @ soompi.

Tip off: nerdxissa @ Kh.

I always liked Jay, he just seemed different than the other members ..even before his situation blew up.. but his recognition of KARA is awesome, not many people recognize KARA's improvements and mentions it in public. So is he a Kamilia?.. btw.. I'm glad he didn't choose the obvious group his former group would have chosen XD

[blab] There are very few things that bug me..

about Nicole.. one of the major ones is that she seems very timid. Like if someone were to suggest something to her and she doesn't necessarily like it.. she'll do it anyways. Or maybe she'll be talked into it, I know she worries a lot but I wonder if she knows to protect her image. She is an idol. Some things have happened and I've questioned if she really pays much attention to things that might not really mean THAT much at the end of the day but can hurt her as an idol. No one else will care about her image, if she doesn't care about it herself. Sometimes, I just want to let her know that it's okay to disagree because she is the one being sent on tv and has to stand on that stage. I know she's young but hopefully she learns to be more outspoken about what she likes and wants....

I hate feeling bad for her.. XD

Nicole gets aggravated peeved on 3 conditions I've noticed:

1. You forget your OWN song lyrics (like the one I posted above)

2. You don't know the dance steps

3. If someone were forcefully acting cute ( lol, SY and Hara victims of Cole's ugh face XD)

[blab] I want the best...

Okay at first glace, of course it would be nice if every member were to have equal popularity, talent, and looks. 

[Outtakes] Nicole outtakes from Starhwabo

This was from the end of last year, I wished Cole's hair didn't look like a helmet XD.

[Tweet] Nicole's new guy friend?

 He is a 91'er....

[Rumor] So word around KARA fans..

Is that KARA recorded for the MBC show Flower Bouquet. But it was not on the schedule and also that show is for mostly rookies, so what are KARA's butts doing there? lol. But i've seen clips of the show and format seems entertaining enough.

[blab] Rainbow's on SSTP

Okay their live with only the 3 members was good and then I thought.. KARA 4 used to do this XD All the harmonies and such. Now I'm just like dying for GyulHamCole to give it a try. I know there should be potential there because they are good vocalists alone. But why haven't they ever sung together..only the 3 of them? My patience is running low with DSP... I think KARA is secure enough for the 3 of them to do a solo song.. I'm dying for KARA to get some credibility back.

Gyuri's look from SSTP on 8.23:

Now I'm not sure but I was checking up on DCKARA and KARA-T and Gyuri mentioned on radio she would be shooting the photo jacket (for KARA's mini album) .. I 'm guessing this is her look.. and if this is true.. I'm soo looking forward to what Cole looks like.. you know cause of her hair lol.. and the eyelashes look really long..longer than usual.. fans were thinking the avant - garde look or even warrior.. hey warrior would be interesting.. like female empowerment lol.. really different.. i know this is not cute.. so yay lol

[News] Kara's Gyuri was shockingly surprised to see Japan reaction

Girl Group Kara's Leader Park Gyuri revealed her after promotions feelings. They just came back from Japan for their debut single release promotion from 8 August onwards for 8 days and 7 nights. On 19 August at one broadcaster waiting room they were asked several questions about their promotions in Japan.

Park Gyuri said,"I thought it was a joke when I first heard about us at Oricon Weekly Chart. Actually even now I(we) still cannot believe it. We are not even Japanese group but yet we are able to receive such love which also worries us at the same time. Of course we are happy and proud. However, just like how we're so shocked at the same time we are confused too.

Gyuri responded to questions asked about their popularity in Japan. She said, "Rather than expressing how we felt, it seems like we are more of shocked and surprised." When asked about factors that make them so well received and popular in Japan, Gyuri said " Many said that they can't find any other groups that look like us. We've also heard people like us because they feel like we are just like their sisters or friends next door. Looks like we have to work harder to show our very best and prettily no matter which stage performance we are in. Gyuri added, "We are glad and happy to have fans from another(foreign) place to love us but we have yet to work even harder just as much as how much we are being loved. We will do our very best and definitely will not let down both our Korean and Japanese fans for our upcoming album in September."

Kara's single debut in Japan "Mister" was ranked at #5 on Oricon weekly chart(Based on 17 August). Kara is the first foreign girl group to be on Oricon weekly Chart top 5 with their debut single.

[blab] Tweet to Cole.

If you guys read my other post, Nicole wasn't at the ending of the Burning Day Concert. 

Found a pic, Cole was there.. the one on the left.. poor girl.. but in the other pics and fancams.. I didn't see her..she must have left some time during that last stage. According to fans, they say it was because Nicole was sick. So everyone tweet her to make her feel better :)

But she is such a trooper, in 2007 around Cole's bday they had to perform and Nicole was soo sick but she performed without incident but it was sad, she was clearly ill but she just kept drinking water and still performed.

[News] Kara already flooded with Japanese CF love calls

With successful in Japan, Kara immediately received a lof of CF offers. Last 15 August Kara have returned home from promotion in Japan for their first debut single 'Mister', Kara is currently on the plan to make a comeback at the end of September with new album. Recording is underway and there are also upcoming plans for Jacket album shooting as well as music video shooting.

In addition, Kara's out of expectation CF love calls have been flooding in. Rather than from Korea, but CF shooting request from Japan. As soon as they (Kara) came back to Korea, proposals keep coming from Japan side in request for CF filming which makes the agency surprised. Already there have been contacts from apparels, cosmetics and beverages.

The agency reps revealed on 20 August, "As soon as we're back to Korea, there have been proposals from Japan side" "Be it images or activities/other promotions, we'll carefully think and take that into consideration". He added,"Kara's awareness in Japan is way more than our expectation. We didn't think it is possible for such a sudden rise."

Meanwhile KARA's first single 'Mister' was up at #5 on Japan's Oricon Weekly Chart. About 30,000 copies were sold which is Korean artist highest figure sales in Japan after BOA and TVXQ. In addition, on largest music site, Kara's Mister topping the iTunes Chart at #2 and maintained position 2-4,which made Japan's officials surprised.

[Info] KARA Love Calls for CFs from Japan

YAY! Well I guess this isn't surprising given the success that have just had over there, says 3-4 contracts with clothing, cosmetics, and beverages. Also KARA's already in the middle of recording, shooting the jacket photos and are filming the MV for their comeback! KARA's side says they are looking at the proposals carefully. I'll post up an actual article when it gets translated but i'm excited!! 

BTW, I am worried about KARA's Korean activities..not only b/c of the back and forth from and to Japan, but the big time artists are coming back.. so I hate to say this but I wouldn't be surprised if their Korean activities take a hit XD. Though I will be looking for more hair on Nicole's head! Must look out for sponsor photos.

[News]10.08.18. Kara thanks their Japanese fans

Girl idol group Kara, who achieved great popularity in Japan after their official debut on the 11th, held a hand shake event at Tokyo’s Shinkiba Studio Coast.

Japanese online media YomiWoori introduced the event with a picture of the girls kneeling down and posing with fans. On this day, member Gyuri revealed a surprising behind-the-scenes story during their stay in Japan. In Japanese, the singer said, “Jiyoung and I were walking in Harajuku eating crepes when we were suddenly scouted (streetcasted). A magazine reporter asked to take pictures of us, but we said, ‘Sorry. Japanese is very hard for us,’ and escaped.”

In addition to talking about the occurrence, Kara did not forget to thank their fans. Each member expressed their thanks to fans and revealed their future plans. The youngest member, Jiyoung, expressed, “From now on, let’s not be apart and meet frequently.” Nicole said, “We won’t lose sight of our goals and always work hard so please cheer for us.” ‘Goddess’ Gyuri, “Thank you for coming out to see us at such a hot weather. Please enjoy the event”. Lastly, Seungyeon, “We didn’t think that we could come this far. Please take care of us.”
