They Are With You In KARA's 1st Thraed!

[miroro]

The members of KARA have been chosen as fixed MCs for a Japanese music program.

According to Fuji TV, KARA will be appearing on their talk show music program, “Sakigake! Ongaku Banzuke“, starting November 3rd.

Representatives of the program previously visited KARA in Korea last month in order to report on KARA’s “Jumping” album jacket photo shoot.

KARA will be the MCs for only the show’s opening and ending segments since they must promote in both Korea and Japan. A three month old rookie singer being given the MC position to a famous music program is definitely an exceptional case for both industries.

KARA will be releasing their second Japanese single, “Jumping,” on the 10th, along with a Korean mini-album on the 17th. “Girls Talk” will be released on the 24th. Their Japanese management agency is currently predicting 200,000 in album sales.

u go gurls!!
this is exciting!! <3

I'm ordering the DVD version from CDjapan even that I'm not feeling the covers

200k in album sales?! That would be INCREDIBLE!

[Nackar_91]

Let's see if they can actually manage it XD.

Jumping concept pics for korea

yes, this is GREAT

On November 4th, Kara’s agency has revealed teaser images from the album jacket of their upcoming album, “Jumping“.
“Jumping” will be released in both Korea and Japan, and many Korean fans are looking forward to the new project, as its been 9 months since “Lupin“.
A DSP Entertainment official stated, “Kara’s new album utilizes the optical art concept of black and white geometric patterns, which differs depending on each member’s physical characteristics and image.” He added, “You will see a new and upgraded Kara with these modern, yet chic images.”
The first teaser picture features Nicole, Jiyoung and Gyuri; DSP Entertainment stated that photos of the 2 other members, Hara and Seungyeon will be released at a later date.
“Jumping” will be released in Japan on November 10th, and the Korean version is due out in mid-November.

[miroro]

^i LOVED IT!!

it looks like hara and that gurl from akb48 are really good friends!

Recently, girl groups KARA and AKB48 took selcas together at the ‘2010 Asia Song Festival‘, and now AKB48’s Sato Natsuki demonstrated their friendship even more by exhibiting ‘couple cell phone charms’ made with KARA’s Goo Hara.

Sato Natsuki uploaded a picture onto her blog with the caption, ‘Hara-sshi and Natsuki, matching couple cellphone charms‘. The picture of the ‘couple cell phone charms’ shows Hara’s ‘H’ and Natsuki’s ‘N’ branded on a cell phone strap.

Sato Natsuki also wrote, ‘I’m very happy! My friend is so pretty. I wrote the Korean word for ‘friend’ phonetically in Japanese. I will study Korean even harder!”

The two groups are friendly rivals in the Japanese music industry, and both have been receiving a lot of attention in the media. During the ‘2010 Asia Song Festival’, a lot of media members from Japan came to Korea to cover the two groups.

^^ It's pretty funny they wrote "Baby come back" in katakana.

Other than that, the performance had some decent moments, but it was a pretty standard KARA perf (aka underwhelming). They're easily one of my absolute favorite girl groups, but I just don't think they sing well live at all

The Japanese covers are good and they're cute, but they don't even compare to this one. It's easily their best cover yet. I'm DEFINITELY buying the Korean mini after seeing that the artwork's gonna be this style.

[miroro]

^yess! i can't wait for scanss!!

btw, i wanted to buy Kara's best ! but there's only japanese version and it's expensive! will they make an overseas version? i don't have that much money to spend now XD

[hearted]

^maybe someone on ebay will sell a cheaper one? i got my sifow cd from there (which also only had jp version) for only 16 dollar!!!

[miroro]

i'll search ~ <3
but first, i need to start saviing (damn you ayu, i got poor because of you XD)
