I think Rider sounds like the style Sweetune gives Infinite, and 따라와 sounds more like the sassy style they give Rainbow. Strawberry is very much a classic Kara style, but I think Apink could do it well, and Date could be done well by Dalmatian (though you'd have to change it to My Girl) Step is 100% Kara signature style and I don't think anyone else could do it right.

I LOVE her hair like this. So pretty~ Does anyone have more like this?

Nicole seems more in shape than ever, just look at her legs when they do the KARAPARA. So nice and fit.

I'm 171cm so I consider 160 to be the perfect height. When I hug a girl that height, they wrap their arms around my chest and rest their head on it next to my shoulder, and if I look the same way I rest my head on theirs as my arms go around their upper arms to hold them tight. It's a very comfy snuggly fit and also a good height difference for kissing.

I really don't know what to think of the dance. On the one hand, I would think it's completely ridiculous if done by anyone else. On the other hand, since they are doing it, they make it completely adorable. Jiyoung especially since in the MV a few times she looks SO EXCITED to be doing the dance. It's so cute.

I think their new songs definitely have more of a jpop sound, but they have the same composers that they have had since Rock U. Do you think this is just the composers trying to better suit the songs to Japan, or will their next Korean promotions have a different flavor to them? I think their Korean albums have been very consistent in style and quality, so it is interesting to see some significant stylistic shifts in their Japanese singles.

Hmmm... pretty hard. Gyuri has the kind of sleepy sexy eyes, but Jiyoung has the gorgeous doe-eyes. I choose.....

At first it was Hara, but she cheated because I knew her first from Invincible Youth. Now that I have seen waaaaaay more Kara, Nicole is my favorite idol.

Haha, they are really cute and I love the bright colors, but that dance is so silly, like a Monty Python skit or something. It has to be one of the silliest dances I've ever seen.

I'm not really into girls when they get super muscly, but Nicole has just the right amount. She is sporty and fit, perfect for a dancer like she is, not like a bodybuilder. I like staying fit and want to keep an active lifestyle to stay fit for my whole life, so I really like girls like her who are the same way.

It always makes me smile when she doesn't understand things very well. I'm learning Korean and I always feel like I am going too slow. Even with her years there, she can still miss what is going on when a whole group of people is talking or when more obscure words are used. She is probably thinking "Oh no, I have to work harder" while keeping her sweet smile, but just being herself with this weakness is very encouraging to me as I face the same challenge.

I love how much she stays down to earth. She isn't afraid to be dorky (my favorite is her awkward/goof laugh when she goes "eheee" you know what I'm talking about) but not in a way that is detached from the world around her. She's always attentive and engaging with the people around her.

Oh my goodness she is too cute. I really love when girls have hairbands or other pretty things in their hair. I love how Kara members seem to do it fairly often.
