“Hi everyone. The day has come again. Just recently, I have realized how much time has passed, and I can’t believe that it’s already the eight debut anniversary. I am so thankful to everyone who has been with us over the years, and I am also truly grateful to everyone who has congratulated us and shared the happiness. I hope this will be a good day for all of us.”
srcGyuri and SeungYeon both wrote messages that included Nicole (sort of), read HERE & HERE if you are interested.
It’s safe to say that I have never really gone wild about a girl group, not even once.
However from time to time, there are times when I get interested in a member.
It was Nicole in case of KARA.
There were lots of times that I smiled when I saw her on TV because of her cheerful, healthy, and a little bit of clumsy side.
Was it on mid-November of last year?... I requested an interview with Nicole to her company.
The name value of the media where I’m working at is falling
And I thought it would be hard to ask her for our cover story, but I still tried calling.
Fortunately the time for the magazine release matched with Nicole’s solo debut
So we can put her on the cover for the December issue without any problem.
(On 2013, we worked with SPICA who is at the same company with her, which gave a positive effect too.)
After we confirmed the interview, I studied a lot about KARA and Nicole as quickly as possible.
I only liked her image, but I didn't know much about her.
I studied it one by one, from her debut song until right before departing to her Japanese Single that has been released. (?)
I listened to her singing voice.
It feels like she holds a more splendid skill compared to other members because of her dance.
I also got to know how she was unable to gain lots of opportunities compared to her talents and charms.
I felt it was really a pity.
It’s not because I'm a fan, but rather as someone with a career.
It makes me want to cheer on her solo career even more.
She said she was a passionate *NSYNC fan when she was a child
And she put on *NSYNC carols in the studio.
It was still far from Christmas, but since it was a project for the December issue, we did need that feeling.
Nicole greets while smiling brightly, it’s not different at all with the one that I saw on TV.
She makes the people in the studio feel comfortable by conversing friendly (with others).
I was a little bit worried but thanks to that it made me feel lighter.
I’ve been doing this job for a year and six months, and from all the interviews that I’ve done personally, Nicole was the “Biggest (in popularity) Entertainer”, she was a member of KARA who are really popular not only in Korea but also in Japan and all Asia and that makes me more nervous than usual.
But I didn’t need to worry.
She never is grumpy, not even once.
During interview and shooting, she was flawless and always maintained her manner.
She answered the questions with smile and sincerity.
I’m also thankful to her for even talking about things that weren’t asked and that helped in progressing the interview.
She exuded a ‘professional’ feeling when she did the shooting,
While giving ‘friendly’ feeling during the interview.
It’s easy to say, but it’s hard to be both ‘Professional’ and ‘Friendly’ at the same, isn’t it?!
As an editor who directed the making of Nicole’s cover story at that day
I was very satisfied with the results, whether it’s the photos, interview, and even the atmosphere at the studio.
The magazine where she decorated the cover made a record of the most sold magazine in 3.5 years.
The title of the article that I wrote was ‘Nicole’s First Shining Winter’.
I decided the title beforehand and then showed it to her before doing the interview.
She said that she liked it.
I was happy for her to say that.
I didn’t consider Nicole’s Debut album orher single created a big sensation.
However, it showed ‘Nicole also able to do thing kind of things’, ‘Nicole is capable of lots of things alone’
And I think with that it was quite a successful debut.
Also, I believe she will do even better in the future.

Hello everyone!
How are you? ww It's almost spring!
Korea is getting warmer now
Recently, my three dogs all caught the cold. It was so troubling.
During the past three weeks, for the first time, I thought that having three dogs was difficult.
Although they got better quickly...
Meri-chan (Melly) is also growing up quickly, isn't she?
The vet told me that she'd probably be bigger than Duke
Before this she was already 14kg..
I think she's even heavier now... What a shock
Although I think you already know, next month I'll be in Japan after two years! I will be in K-CON JAPAN 2015 on April 22! I'm excited.
I also have a meet and greet! ww
This will be the first time I'm meeting you as a solo artist.. so I'm worried. It's also very nerve-wracking to talk alone..
I have prepared many things so please look forward to it >_<
While studying Japanese, I have practiced pronunciation, but I can only do it in my mind.. It won't come out naturally through my mouth..
BUT! I'll do my best ^^
Also, I miss Japanese food a lot.. Curry soup.. Tonkatsu.. Sukiyaki.. CoCo Ichi* (coco ichibanya - a famous curry store)... www I miss all of them
I took the picture as soon as I woke up
Because I'm so busy during the weekday, I take it slow during the weekends and play with my dogs.
I'm fresh faced though..ww
Right now I am on my way to walk Duke!
I hope everyone will also have a good day!!
Nicole

On the March 18 broadcast of OnStyle’s beauty show “Get It Beauty,” MC Honey Lee’s sister Seul Gi Lee and Soyu’s sister-like close friend Nicole appear as special guests for the show’s “Sisters Special.”
When asked about her friendship with Nicole, Soyu says, “When I first met Nicole, because Nicole is very bubbly and cute while I’m very laid-back, I thought we wouldn’t get along. But through conversations, I realized that we understand each other, and that’s how we became close friends.”
