  1. I'm opening this discussion for us to have a guide to help KARA for this comeback: : 카라 : KARA : 숙녀가 못 돼 : Can't Be A Lady (Damaged Lady) : 둘 중에 하나 : Runaway First two are no brainers: #1 - Buy the album (!!!) If you plan to buy via YesAsia, please use Karaholic's link. It would also be nice if you refrain from sharing download links for the whole album. Check to see if the sales will add to Hanteo (YesAsia and GMarket does). That's quite important. Physical sales may not have a big bearing on the Music Shows, but it does earn more for KARA and DSP. #2 - Watch the MV on Youtube - create a playlist (F5, Replay, Youtuberepeaters DO NOT WORK). Refresh your browser cache after about 50 repeats. Clear/Remove from your YT Watch History. Also watch it thru iMBC and Gaon. If you have a blog, add this to the top. It will autoplay the video for every visitor. It might be annoying so don't hide it so that visitors can pause the vid. <iframe width="480" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/_vHw17-zFa4?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> #3 - Vote! - I know, we're one of the laziest fandom in terms of voting. But if they lose because of the lack of votes, we have no one to blame but ourselves and we don't want that, do we? Let's make our votes count on the charts that matter. SMS Voting is counted per phone number, so it really doesn't cost much for that one SMS to M!Countdown (text "카라" to +82-2-2566) and one SMS to MuCore (text "KARA" to +82-2-0505) and one SMS to Inkigayo (text "카라" to +82-2-1245). #4 - Build the hype by searching on Search portals - by having them trend on Search portals, ordinary Koreans will be curious and might download the song adding to the Digital sales. It will also help if we unanimously search at certain times (i.e. after a music show performance, after a tv guesting, every 12noon lolz). Check the shoutbox for the term that's trending for the day/event. ~ Naver | Daum | Nate | Melon ~ If you want to be lazy, use this site and have it cycle for 301-400 secs (That's roughly every 5 mins, but it's nice to not set it too exact lest you be tagged as spam). #5 - Build the hype on SNS (Twitter, FB, me2day, IG) - use the tags #KARA #카라 #숙녀가못돼 Twitter: Do not use a tag after another (ie I like #KARA #숙녀가못돼) because it'll be considered a spam. Instead write words in between (ie I love #KARA and their latest song #숙녀가못돼 is the best). Gaon Social Chart: Sign up to Gaon and add points to KARA's Social Chart (tutorial and tips from another site). me2day: Make sure to click the me2 for all KARA official me2day post. Let it make it to the top stories. FB: Follow KARA's official FB page. Like their posts. FB now has hashtags, use it. But after this, what else can we do? Please add what you know we can do to help. (Unsure - if anyone can verify please do) Streaming Music Online (the 1 minute sample) every hour for Digital Streaming points - some say it adds to the digital streaming, some say it doesn't. It doesn't take much of your time, so it wouldn't hurt to do this. Clear cache before/after doing this for the hour. Bugs | Melon | Olleh Music | MNet | Soribada | Daum | Monkey3 Korean proxy sites: list 1 list 2 - some say to use a Korean proxy to make the streaming count. I've read somewhere that if you stream on Naver with a foreign IP, it'll be a deduction instead of adding to the points. This Streaming on Bugs using Facebook acct tutorial shows you need to change your IP. And if you do it this way, the streaming will definitely count. But it's 1 FB account for a 1-day pass, so use it wisely. I'd say use it for CBAL than Runaway.

This was in 2008 Kkangji, who slips while changing position Hara, who is too busy looking for the red light above the cameras Gyul, who is too concerned with her suspenders Mean while Hammie, who can't find her position And Cole, who finds her permanent position at the show starting in the winter of that year They were all so cute and lovely. Now, see what they've become. They are super stars.

  10. KARA, who is getting ready for a comeback, is gaining attention with its title song that's in Korean. DPS Media revealed on the 16th that KARA' new album title song will be in Korean - "Can't become a lady" ("숙녀가 못 돼"). KARA who is returning their activities to Korea since 1 year ago, has made comebacks previously all in English titles such as "Rock U," Pretty Girl," Mister," "Step", and "Pandora." Also, previous titles have been only 2 or 3 syllables long, but this coming title song "Can't become a lady" is 5 syllables long (in Korean), which has been gaining attention from the fans. the fans' attentions. After learning that KARA's title song will be in Korean this time, people are responding "KARA's new attempt," "I'm looking forward to how KARA will make their comeback," "Their title songs have been so similar in the past, but this is new."

  28. KARA to pre-release 'Runaway' ahead of comeback with title track 'Can't Be a Lady' KARA will be aiming to do even bigger and better things for their long awaited comeback and they're sharing a few details with fans before their return. SEE ALSO: KARA to live stream their comeback showcase KARA's upcoming title track titled "Can't Be A Lady" is fitting with their boyish teaser images and will be preceded by a pre-release song called, "Runaway" (Korean title: "One of the Two"). "Runaway" is a medium-tempo track composed by Shim Eun Ji and will give fans a taste of what's to come for their comeback. Get ready for KARA with their pre-release track "Runaway" on the 21st ahead of their full return! http://view.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2013081608020668079&nvr=Y http://www.allkpop.com/article/2013/08/kara-to-pre-release-runaway-ahead-of-comeback-with-title-track-cant-be-a-lady

  29. I'm going off topic here a bit, but I agree with this completely. In Japan they have lots of female fans which is why they have lots of endorsements, but in Korea, they lack female fans and it shows with endorsements. Female fans are important because they invest more emotionally and an emotional investment is what causes fan-girls to defend their favorite idols to death and support every thing they do; once you've got a solid female fan-base, you can basically do whatever and be fine. Female fans are important because if they are die-hard stans, when you endorse something, they will buy it. SNSD has lots of endorsements because they have a lot of female fans. Lots of girls will buy the things they endorse because guys like them and girls want to look like the girls that guys like. Relying on "uncle" fans is hard; sure they spend tons of money but they don't invoke the same "fandom" spirit that younger fans can and it often makes it seem like KARA has a weaker or smaller fan-base; KARA doesn't do great in online polls and they don't get mentioned a whole lot in forums either. It's just that "uncle" fans don't have time to really be fans of idols, they have jobs and families. Perfect example is Kim Hee Sun and her husband. He's an uncle fan of KARA but he also has a busy job as a surgeon and I'm sure he doesn't troll the internet defending KARA in online forums and voting on online polls. Guy's like KARA but it doesn't illicit the same "copy-KARA" reaction as it does with SNSD. I think it also has to do with the age of fans who support KARA. Lots of male (and female) idols vocally support SNSD, and thats the age-range/ideal guy that girls that age are going for. KARA doesn't have many vocal male idol supporters. They have a lot of vocal "uncle" supporters but idol fangirls don't want "uncle" boyfriends. They want Taecyeon, Nichkhun, Minho and such. KARA is known as a very attractive group though and I think criticism tends to over-flow for them. Though netizens accuse groups like SNSD and T-ara for relying on appearances, they definitely consider KARA a group with ONLY appearance to offer. It's whatever though. Anyways, I'm way excited about the 4th album. I hope it's similar to break-it. I'm glad KARA went back to the covered up side. Kamilia seem to be the only fandom that don't really like when our girls wear "daring" outfits. But KARA doesn't need skin to win! They did it with Lupin and Break-It so I'm more than certain they can do it again.

  30. Sourced from Karaboard. http://karaboard.com/bbs/board.php?bo_table=community&wr_id=1041463&page=3 Since the comeback of KARA is pretty near, someone at Karaboard posted these videos. It's regarding the fan-chants. Pretty amazing stuff. For those who might be interested... 1. 카라의 정규2집 (wanna) 컴백무대 이날 한국팬들 작정하고 컴백날 다 몰림 ㄷㄷㄷ wanna특징이 응원구호가 쉴새없이 나오는데 힘도 안빠지고 미친듯이 응원하는 한국카밀 ㄷㄷㄷ [Kara's 2nd studio album (wanna) comeback stage. That day Korean fans all gather with a resolve. Wanna's uniqueness is that the chants come continuously but the Kamilias don't get tired and keeps chanting like crazy.] 늑대가죽 13-08-07 13:17 1. 뮤뱅 워너 컴백때 입장관객수 기록은 아직 깨지지 않고있음(타방송사 음방제외) 2. 뮤뱅 사녹당시 풀파워로 5번 응원이후 목에서 출혈피해자 속출(예비2번+본사녹5번 한것으로 기억함) 3. 레볼루션 활동이후 임원진에 민원이 들어가서 이후에는 응원이 많이 얌전해진거임 4. 활동당시 모든 음방때 카밀리아 인력동원력이 쩔어서 음중PD와 용화 매니저가가 제발 응원 좀 살살하라고 했으나 소귀에 경읽기 결국 방송스탭이 녹화중에 객석 마이크를 꺼버린 일도 있었음 (This is a comment written by Wolfskin under the post, yes the famous KARA photographer.) 1. The audience number figure for the "Wanna" Music Bank comeback stage has never been broken yet. (Exception of other broadcasting music shows.) 2. During the Music Bank stage, there were many fans with neck damage with bleeding continued to appear after their committed chants (rehearsal 2x, actual broadcast filming of 5 times). 3. After the promotions of "Revolution", some complaints went to the management. And the chants became more well mannered. 4. The Kamilias showed up in such force during their activities at all their broadcasting stages, the show PD's (directors) and then KARA manager YongHwa (famous among Kamilias) asked the Kamilias to please keep it a notch down. But, it was like reading Buddhist Sutras to a cow's ear (direct translation). Finally, the broadcast staffs sometimes had to turn off the audience mikes. 2. 야구장에 카라도 안왔는데 난리난(허니) 야구장 모든 남자들의 로망 허니허니허니 [At a baseball game. KARA is not even there but all the men go crazy with "Honey".
