"I saw Nicole ♡ I've liked Nicole since her debut in 2007 with Break It...I don't have much interest in celebrities but I did like KARA out of the girl groups haha she really kindly took a picture with me and when I asked her "Why aren't you promoting these days?? TT TT" she answered "I'm preparing right now". So I said "I'm cheering you on, fighting" TT TT I'm sincerely supporting you Nicole! Very kind...and I hope you will get more love!"

My 1st album "bliss" is released!
I made this album with my staff while thinking hard on what style* would really make everyone's heart's pound.
There's a mixture of songs of various genres that I think are all worth listening to.
In Spring 2016, please have a wonderful time together with my album.
From here on please keep cheering for me!

DON'T STOP:
Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
yeaaaa, noooo
"I love you," I want to hear that now
I'm drowning in my anxiety like this
Who do you love? I want you to answer
Don't stop this love
Even if you say only a few words...
I still haven't seen your heart
That distance I seem to touch, it's getting closer
To avoid it, I leave it...
I want to know what you really think
Silly, why don't you say?
It's because you have no courage, right?
Let's start this love for real
"I love you," I want to hear that now
I'm drowning in my anxiety like this
Who do you love? I want you to answer
Don't stop this love
Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
yeaaaa, noooo
Was that distant shadow I saw you?
Maybe I had passed by you
Even in my head, it's only you
I'm feeling uneasy towards you...
My feelings won't stop
My chest hurts
My heart is wishing for you
I'm waiting for those words
"I love you," I want to hear that now
I'm drowning in my anxiety like this
Who do you love? I want you to answer
Don't stop this love
Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
yeaaaa, noooo
I make a wish to the shining stars
Sending my overflowing feelings
The whispering wind will carry my heart to you
"I love you," I want to hear that now
I'm drowning in my anxiety like this
Who do you love? I want you to answer
Don't stop this love
Baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
Oh baby, Oh baby
yeaaaa, noooo
Actually, the girl is glamorous and sexy. Even though they say ‘Glamorous’ is a magic-like thing that makes you imagine something that doesn’t exist. However as for Nicole, I don’t think we need to look deeper into the meaning. One thing is for sure, we want to be together with the sexy Nicole a little bit more. Nicole says that she’s not a glamorous person. Despite her strong and glamorous body line made from pilates, she says that she is actually simple and ordinary on the inside. She doesn’t hide her image which is just a young girl who likes puppies, even though she is already past her mid 20s. Since she unable to bear with colds during winter, she admits her daily necessity is moving within a 1m radius of her bed, so she can reach out to get what she needs without having to move her feet.
It’s true that it’s not glamorous or mysterious, but there’s a slight glamour in that ordinary life. Aroma room spray is the thing that protects Nicole’s bed throughout the winter, she is sensitive to smells. She says that when the sweet and soft woody scent fills the air, it makes her heart calm down. This thing shows her glamorous emotions.
“I think a woman’s confidence and pride will become her beauty and give her strength. I think this is the glamorous strength possessed by women”
"Nicole, 와이니~ 꾸얼라이!" ← This is Chinese I think (t/n)
December 17th, Special Exhibition at Lotte Department Store in the northern Shenyang, Liaoning. It’s a weekday yet there are around 1000 of people. Part of them is looking from the 2nd and 3rd floor, tiptoeing while leaning on the railings. The fans enthusiasm who fired camera flashes, trying to not miss any movement from Hallyu Star ‘Nicole’. One Chinese fan is holding a placard with fluorescent color with words ‘Milky White ♥ Nicole’ in Korean, screamed out. There are some noticeable passionate fans from Japan too. This event, ‘Hallyu Star Fashion Beauty with Export Road Show’, managed by KOTRA looks like a fan concert by singer Nicole (25) who has been appointed as the ambassador for this event.
Nicole responded by taking poses one by one toward the fans. She made eye contact with all the fans who surrounded her.
Nicole entered the entertainment industry by debuting with KARA and left the group in 2014 and became solo singer. The results weren’t bad. Her first debut single in Japan ‘Something Special’ reached 8th place in the Weekly Oricon Single Chart and even reached 1st place in Tower Record K-Pop Single Weekly Chart. ‘Solo Singer’ Nicole is actively doing her activities.
On this day, the ambassador Nicole visited a rehabilitation center for the disable. She donated Hope Shirts that she signed herself, she kneeled and hugged autistic children. We can see her sincerity by looking at how comfortable she is during the ‘Hallyu Star’s Visit’ even though it is something that can easily become strange and awkward.
Nicole participated in the KOTRA ‘Great Chinese Region Hallyu Marketing Support’. It’s a campaign for 16 small businesses to introduce their products through PPL pictorial as well as a pop-up store.
Nicole’s special photo shoot will be published on the global K-Wave magazine Chinese edition, January 2016 issue.
We met with Nicole at the waiting room after all the events ended. As soon as I opened the door, I noticed right away Nicole’s playful side by how she sits on the chair, crossed her legs, and taking selcas. A cute girl full of smiles that was focused on taking selcas. That’s Nicole’s first impression. Even though it’s a sudden interview, Nicole welcomed us warmly like an old friend.
The interview with Nicole, an idol in her 8th year since debut, was bright and positive just like herself. It felt like when you were tired after a long day and met with your close friend and having chat with her.
After releasing a solo album last year, Nicole (25) came back after a year of vacuum. However for some reasons she feels unfamiliar. It feels like there’s a complete transformation, both from the atmosphere that exudes from her looks as well as her personality. Also her Korean Language is more fluent. What exactly happened to her for the past year?.
Q How was the photo shoot today?
▲ It was really fun. To be honest, even up until it started, I was worried a lot because of my fat… It was Chuseok not too long ago. I live alone right now, during holiday the delivery restaurants are closed so I invited close staff and I made Braised Spicy Chicken and we ate together. With Soju too. From that time my appetite that had been held back exploded and I ate a lot. I can’t control myself since I live alone. I ate a box of macaroon while watching TV. In the end I got enteritis. I only drank iron drinks for couple of days and didn’t work out at all. I needed to prepare my body for the photo shoot yet I wasn’t able to and it made me worry a lot.
Q You are the style that usually works out hard.
▲ I don’t do it as much as I used to. Before I went to work out around 6 times a week but these days I only work out around 3 times. I’m the style where my muscle will develop a lot even though I only work out for a little bit. So these days I’m doing exercise that will make me lose my muscle.
Q I heard that this is your first time doing an underwear photo shoot. There were lots of exposure, did it burden you?
▲ Aigoo, I worried a lot. Because at an underwear photo shoot you can see the line that you can’t cover. It was a great burden. However I think the clothes were able to conceal it a little bit and the photo shoot went well.
Hello!
Are you well?
Me.. because of the weather, I'm a bit under..
I don't want to do anything..
Even pilates is difficult..
Recently I've also started dieting.
I won't drink alcohol either! wwwww
Is it okay to write this wwww
But since I have to start preparing, I would not drink. ww
If I drink, I'll just drink one glass? ww
It's been almost a week since I last drank
To all of the adults, you understand how this is an amazing thing, right? wwwww
I'm sorry
Continuing after grapefruit!
The thing that I'm into now!!
It's avocado!
Although I've liked it since before...
Because I've decided to go on a diet...
I've suddenly taken an interest as to the taste of avocado toast..
Scrambled egg and cheese and avocado what does it taste like
I tried making it.. What to do, I'm addicted.
On my instagram photos, on the left is the food that I always make and eat.
On top of the mozarella cheese and avocado is pepper, and I add it truffle oil. It's so delicious..
I love truffle oil wwww
But even if you don't have this, please try the avocado toast!
On the right!
Mixed to the avocado is salt, pepper, and a bit of lemon juice.
On top of the bread, I placed cream cheese and ricotta cheese, then the avocado mixture.
On top of that, red pepper!!!
For four consevutive days, I've been eating only avocado w
Before this, during Something Special's promotions, I am glad to have been able to see everyone ^^
Have you listened to it?
Although it might have been a trouble, thank you for coming to see me.
Even though during the handshake event, it was so hot outside...
But I had fun seeing everyone, greeting everyone, and even talking to everyone!
This time, to show you more sides of me, I'm doing my best.
I'll be coming again this year, okay? ww
Before I return to Japan, I'll be having some activities in Korea. Please watch over me >_ I'll be doing my best w
Soon, I have a small...
A really small present for you w

Good evening, Colling!
How are you?
Today, you might've already seen it on Instagram but my dogs went swimming!
Amazing, isn't it?
IT's Duke and Jasper's second time, but it's Melly's first!
But... as expected the youngest is the best ww
Although Jasper got better in the end, Duke was scared until the end.
Being a dog is more trouble than I thought www
Because they exercised more than usual, they slept and rested as soon as we got back.. so chill ww
I really got tired www
But I plan on bringing them along a lot this summer www
I'll be going to Japan soon!ww
It'll be my first promotion as a solo artist!
I'll be going to Nagoya, Fukuoka, and even Osaka. I'm so happy!
You've always been telling me, right? You want me to come ww
Although it's only a day, please look forward to it!
If you have the time, please come and see me!! ww
Hitsumabushi... wwwwwww
Has everyone seen the Something Special MV?
What do you think?
On GYAO! It reached number one, and I'm so surpirsed!
I'm really happy!
I saw it on Twitter while I'm in a restaurant so I wasn't able to dance ww I endured
Everyone, although I know that you want to see my purple hair... the reason it's not purple is...
When I sweat, my ears, neck, and even my clothes become purple.
If I get my nails done, my nails will also be colored.
And so, before the PV shoot, I didn't touch my hair that much..
In my dance theme, **髪を津金くれましたww
I also have purple nails.. it's also in my instagram! w
It's not fake! ww
And so, my hair color will be changed before I get to Japan. It won't be purple.
I'm sorry... Please understand..
Even my pillow cover has turned a bit purple...
I also can't wear the clothes I want recklessly w
Although Something Special is good, please also listen to Fantasy! And, of course, Love, too!
Because I'm a bit tired today, I plan on sleeping early ww
Duke, Jasper, Melly and I are all tired ww
Please continue to wait for me! I'll be there soon! ww
Always Smile
Nicole
Thanks @_mellificent for translation
**maybe nicole meant 髪を掴んでくれました。。。( same pronunciation ) to grab hair ~ thanks @Purisona
Hello!
How are you?
Recently I've been so busy and troubled by so many things.
I'll be filming a PV soon so I've been practicing and exercising.
But with my diet I didn't do badly so I'm not worried w
I did well when it comes to eating
During this time, I'm interested in a healthy salad store. When I found it, I go there often.
My favortie meal... has a lot of avocado ww
I love avocado! It's good for your hair and eyes. And it's delicious..
They also have yogurt with chia seeds in it.
It's a really healthy store!!!
Since I've been busy recently, don't worry about my dogs.. I still care about them.
Even so, we've been able to go on more walks..
My heart is full.
I plan to bring my dogs to wherever we'll be filming the PV w
During that time I'll take a lot of photos to show you!
I think you already know but I have an event on the 30th of May
I'm thinking of what to prepare to make everyone happy!! W
Thinking thinking
Recently I have a worry ww
However after much consideration, there will be a good conclusion in the end
Although I only have three weeks left, from last time's meet and greet, I was able to make great use of our time, so I'm already excited.
Please come! Let's play together!
I'm about to go eat dinner now.
Although I can't eat much T.T
Nicole
Thanks to @_mellificent for translation
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

Hello everyone!!
It's Valentine's! Are you well?
What are your plans for today?
I'm just resting today www
Recently, I've started taking lessons again so I'm busy!
As expected, being busy is good!
I've started to study Japanese and I'm slowly getting better. I'm happy.
Although my pronunciation isn't there yet, I'll do my best
I study using drama and stories, and I have learned a word that's suited for today.
hitomeboreshita - love at first sight
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Everyone, did you fall in love with me at first sight?
wwwwwww
Anyway!
I think of spending today with my dogs
Everyone, too, please spend today with your loved ones!!
Ah, also, I'll send you my image.
Me, too!!

Hello Colling~~~~
What are you doing?
I am watching American dramas and movies today, while exercising my hand!
It‘s getting better ^^ I stayed home for days, and enjoyed my leisure time for a few days after a long time. I saw a musical named Kinky Boots, if I have the opportunity, I want see it again in New York. It was awesome! I strongly recommend it! The color I like - REDDD it appeared brilliantly many times. Time ran by so fast when I watched it.
I live the same daily routine these days, so I don't know what to tell.. I don't like going out often, cause it's too cold, eat a lot, then I feel anxiety, so I eat less. LOL I ate so much today. I ate half a dish of pork rips alone, it was too hot, my lips burnt, so I ate yogurt ice cream..
Eat tooo much, suddenly I take a nap,... yeah, I ate so much, so I'll be frustrated tomorrow ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Btw, I started my morning with cereal, it was sweet ㅋㅋ
My friend from America bought it for me... I think I will eat them all soon
Tears ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Day by day, Melly grows bigger and bigger, yesterday, I took a walk with Melly, and Duke suddenly dashed out. It seemed he turned sulky because I didn’t go out with him. He caused so much troubles today and yesterday. That’s just because I can't get Duke to take a bath, so I went out with Melly...
He is 25 kilogram timid prince. ㅡㅡ
Recently, Duper are bathed by my manager. Yet he was alone yesterday, Duke won’t understand me. Sad.. Today, I barked for fun, that made Duper scared, they jumped onto the couch. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Until now, I rest a lot, I plan to start a lesson or anything. hahah
In January, I got enteritis and injured my hand in a row, so I can't concentrate at all. I forgot my job for a time. lol. Time flew by so fast in January, I need to start.
It has gotten warm, everybody please take care for cold/enteritis. It seemed to get warm, but it started to be cold again from Sunday. Take care! Health is best!
Love, Nicole
Translation by @raventree90
T/N:
*(Duper = Duke & Jasper)
Nicole said the cereal was 알콩달콩달콤
알콩달콩 is not usually described for food but for lovers(in relationship)
But 달콩 is very similar with 달콤(sweet)
There were a lot of funny Grammar errors which made reading it fun!
Colling call it Nicoles Dictionary
Interviewer:
I think there would be lots of conflicts up until you leave the group. You must have felt sorry to the members and the fans too. However what makes me understand your feeling is it's the same with an ordinary employee, when you work for a company for almost 10 years, you will start thinking about moving to another company. (laugh). You also start to dream about a new job.
Nicole:
Ah, is it like that (laugh)? I really learned lots of things while doing group activities and I have lots of memories together with the members too. I also was able to achieve lots of my goals that seemed impossible. But even then, I started to develop lots of interest in being a solo and I think it's something that I need to go through sooner or later. I also need to think about my future and that's not something that can be done by others (for myself). At that time I really consulted and talked a lot with the members. Of course it wasn't easy to make the final decision. Especially during last year's end of year stages, I felt really weird. I think the climax was during the last concert. As I sang the songs one by one, I kept on thinking "Ah, so this is really the end".
