i dunno he's kinda right but the way he talked about the three is rude :eviltongu

i hope that won't take a long time D:

hopefully they go back now. he is a very influential and powerful person in the industry, he's been around for 30+ years and is involved in a lot more than just CCM. it doesn't look good for the 3 girls if they decide not to go back :no
aside from being the CEO of CCM he's also a higher up in mnet/cj and iirc they own a lot of shares from DSP and distribute all their albums, so he stands to lose money from Kara's disbandment as well

I think they are tired and sick of the company,
they have to promote their music in Japan and Korea, they have a lot of work everyday!!
i hope they can return without tons of work, they are persons, not robots!
just look some of the last photos of SNSD, they look so tired, and i'm feeling another split in their case soon IMO

it looks like things are getting better

cool, I hope everything's gonna be ok for them :yes

now we only need Shirleyto shut up and leave nicole alone :o
so they can change their contracts and then, they can go back to be the best f!king 5 again

^i hope that !!!!

Sorry if this was posted already...
fan-net lists a new Japanese single to be released on March 16th.

^i wonder if their japanese schedule will still be going as planned?

i really hope and want a new single, but with all the crazy news, i really don't know.
i hope they can cancell their contracts in Korea, and keep with her musical career in Japan

the girls are ging to japan to film urakara too ._. (but dunno if all or just gyuri-hara)

^huhh really??? thats so weird!

i can see the liiiight

I can see the light tooooo *__*
omg please be 5 again >___<

woo yaaaaaaaay :heart :heart :heart

some more info about what the 3 members of kara want
tbh, that new CEO should quit:o she isn't her husband, left that work for someone ready to do it

So if that rumor is true, that means their new single is called "Jet Coaster Love"

:x

Jet Coaster love sounds really good, but not as catchy as their other songs. I'm looking forward to it in full!

Jet Coaster love sounds weird for me, but i don't care if the song is amazing

CM with jet coaster love


and some kara info in the news

^OMG IT SOUNDS SO CATCHY!!!!!!!!!!! and i love the title, so cute and jpop-ish :laugh

I'm curious if they're going to keep going on releasing things in Japanese AND Korean (like a korean version of Jet Coaster Love too). I'd be satisfied just with Japanese, really.

THis preview is amazing, and they look so beautiful

MORE GOOD NEWSSSSSS
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS :bawl :bawl

I'm glad everything is worked out! I look forward to their new activities and new songs!<3

yaay!!

yaaay omg i'm so ****ing happy for them :weep

Yay! Thrilled!

OMG KARA FOREVER 5 AMEN FOR THAT :weep
I'm excited for new stuff already :laugh

i'm so happy with this new !!!!!

not sure if you guys had already seen these, but they are new to me soooo~

Lupin scans


+some Jumping scans


:luv2 :luv2 need more of jumping though :weep

i didn't have the jumpin scans:heart
thank youuu!!

oh thanks a lot for the pics :heart

^^^ I never saw the Jumping ones~ they look great. I wonder why they never had that colorful style in any of the Jumping lives. not that I didn't like the style they had tho.

oh thank you :heart
gyuri's so good looking no wonder she's the goddess of the group :laugh *biased*

aww this thread is a little dead :( let me attempt to revive it a bit!

here's more previews of Jet Coaster Love!

higher quality 50 second preview


and someone pieced together ringtones of the song so it's really LQ but you can get what it sounds like


I really like how it's sounding! really upbeat and happy~ just what I love about KARA's songs. I don't think it's anywhere near as catchy as their other songs, but it still sounds good!

^its sounds so fun and poppy!!! im so excited for itttt :luv2

^^ loving how it sounds:heart

buut some bad news again :(

http://www.allkpop.com/2011/02/karas...ence-this-week

let's see how this ends

^lets hope for the best :nervous

^^ ugh I'm not even going to bother to read. it's too confusing & I don't know what to believe so I'm just going to hope for the best too.
anyone watch URAKARA? omg it's so bad. I watched the first episode and regretted it.. the girls really need acting lessons :laugh or they should just stick to dancing & singing. also the plot is just really wtf.

I watched the first episode too..terrible. It's not uncommon for there to be bad actors in Japanese dramas (xD) but this was just too much. And it was just kind of boring plot wise.

OMG, thanks for the previews !!!
It sounds so catchy, (and probably is better than Gee XD)

omgyoudidnotjustsaythat.
I will only forgive you if you're talking about Gee Japanese version. the korean Gee is like the catchiest song in existence!

^ikr XDD

whats URAKARA about anyway?? i saw some cutie gifs of it :laugh

hahahaha, yes i'm talking about the japanese version of course XD, the japanese version is really weird,but the japanese versions of KARA are always better

^oh okay, I agree with you then :yes

^^ I agree about that too :yes

I thought I heard that URAKARA is a reality show ? or is it a drama ? :0

^it's a drama, but a really akward one XD
and well, ratings are like 2% or something like that ._.

I wish it was a reality show, the girls are much more entertaining/charming on them. I actually downloaded it thinking it was a reality show but it's just a really stupid drama with very bad acting. I feel bad that the girls have to waste their time with it.

aww I thought it was a reality show .__. at least I haven't downloaded it XDD

ouch the rating is only 2% ? well love in music said that it's a bad drama anyway so I guess it's ok :P:laugh

I think the rating is actually good for the time it's on..1 AM or something like that..I can't remember.

^ oh well.. maybe I'm just used to see higher ratings for dramas I pay attention too :laugh

an update on their sales~

Jet Coaster Love covers and a better quality version below

http://www.dkpopnews.net/2011/03/pic...t-coaster.html

I LOVE THE SONG!!

Covers...eh.

omg the covers are horrible except for the one where they're dressed in white. they must have like a $10 budget on their Japanese cover shoots or something. they've all looked so cheap.

^+1, the only great cover is the white cover
and the full song is AMAZING

the version B of the covers is beautiful:heart
and loving the full HQ version of the song:luv2

mp3 rip if anyone wants: http://www.mediafire.com/?nr60d1ie6w0xoa1

the full HQ song is AWESOME, and the pv is really cute

FULL PV!!!!!!!!


see it quick before they delete it :laugh

its so so so so beautiful:heart it's already my fav mv along with lupin <3 they look so gorgeous!

the video is cute, but not my favorite. I really like the parts where they're in the room with the giant disco balls.. they look so gorgeous! I don't like some of their hairstyles and when they're on the origami merry go round though lol.. they tried to make them look like 5 years old there. the song in full HQ is amazing though. it puts me in such a good mood!!

this Pv is already better than Jumping only cuz of nicole's bangs XDD
no but i agree with miroro, definatly my fav :luv2 ITS JUST ADORABLENESS OVERLOAD AOJGO:RJHOER

AND OMG THE CHOREO IS JUST TOO CUTE!!!!!! 0:50 till 0:52 AWWWWW :roflmao

cute :heart
omg this single will be full of cutesy :laugh but I love it!

thankyou! :heart
i hope they will perform at HEYx3 and Music Station again :nervous

edit/
this is kinda old but
OMGGGG HARA AND JIYOUNG DOING BANANA GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The girls will also be guesting on Asahi TV’s “Music Station” immediately upon their return on the 18th, and are scheduled to perform “Mister” and “Jet Coaster Love” for the very first time since their lawsuit first broke out earlier this year.


yessssss!!
2 songs:heart

^YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CANT WAIT FOR JCL!!!!

yay!! Music Station :heart

they are also going to be on HEYx3!!!!! i think the 28th this month :D

While I'm not an active listener of KARA, I am very impressed with their effort to donate 100% of the proceeds of their new single to aid those affected by the earthquake in Japan. That is very inspiring and beyond generous of them. I am very awed by this and I know their Japanese fans especially must be moved by this as I know I am. Although I had no intentions on buying this single, I might just get it for the cause! :)

^omg thats really really amazing :heart:heart love these girls so much ;___;

what a great idea! I was thinking of buying the single anyway because the song has grown on me like crazy. I'll order the one with the good cover when it becomes available.

that's amazing, they are a good example for all
Also the digital single of Jet Coaster Love is leaked in 320kbps

that's really sweet of them, giving back for the people who loves them, Japan really deserves it :heart

the full single is now available in 192 kbps

I'm so confused about which version of the single to get. I want the one with the DVD because it has the music video, I want the one with the photobook because I think if the booklet is anything like the cover, the pics are going to be gorgeous, and I want the CD only because it has an extra song. But financially, I can only purchase one. Which version are you all getting?

NEW release date for Jet Coaster Love: 6th of April !!!!!
yay!!!
And honestly i prefer buy the CD+DVD versions of the singles, but i don't buy singles of KARA, an aunt bought for me Girl's Talk, and that's all (sadly idk what happened with this, i haven't received yet). And they don't release the pvs on the album, that's a good reason to buy CD+DVDs sometimes

Thank you so much for your imput. I normally always buy the CD+DVD versions of albums and singles (unless the PV is going to be on DVD of the album) so I've certainly been leaning more towards the limited edition with the DVD moreso than the others. I don't really care about remixes and I know if I get the version with the photobook, I'm only going to look at it once or twice and it will never see the light of day again as I'm not really into KARA that much. Plus, the DVD version is the most expensive which means that it's more money to help aid those affected by the tsunami and earthquake. :)

Ok... I've never liked girlbands/boybands/pop bands in general.. but OMG I am loving these girls! I'm looooooooving Mister and Girl's Talk in general ♥ ♥ So please accept me as part of the KARA family :thanks:

Now I just have to learn to recognise each member
