Lol, ok ok,I know most will totally disagree with me, but I think if you don't have a tv, or a big, center of attention TV for a while, soon you don't miss it. I got rid of mine, I of course have 2 nice monitors, but I find without TV to use up my time, I do better, more interesting things. maybe the girls are better off using their time the way they decided.

I think they are such a perfect mix, there will always be idol groups that fit a basic formula, but I really think KARA has the rare ingredients to stand out & be one of those rare groups that could become truly great. I am glad to be here at their new begining to be able to see that grow

Lol! I love that, she looks so completely like she is daydreaming. is that from a vid file? I would love to see that, she looks very natural there. Tnx for pic

I agree that she has all of the qualifications to make her a successful idol in Japan, except that she is not Japanese. She would have to be able to speak & sing in Japanese first I think. Also it is a very competitive market, but I would like to believe you are right. Still as much as I Love her, I do not think she is yet ready to be solo in any way. (maybe just for a single performance? a special appearance or something) In many respects she reminds me of Tomomi Itano from AKB48, especially with brown hair. both in looks & in personality, although Tomomi is a bit more self appreciating. But even though Tomochin is a front girl in AKB, she still has to work very hard to do well in the Japanese market. Judging it using Tomochin as a comparison, I think for now Hara is best off winning the Korean market. Hara is my favorite idol, So I want to see her Loved everywhere, but I think Japan is a hard market.

I wouldn't say that I could pick a favorite moment yet, but these are just some gifs I made.

Sorry. I uploaded Pics as a group before I saw Nicloes pic posts. But I am glad Hara can have so many different looks. Honestly, I think she just Glows without make-up. she is a naturally beautiful girl & It's possible that to me she is more pretty without make up than with it. Beauty like that is rare, and it comes with the added bonus that she is just as beautiful from within. also the second pic at the beginning of the thread is the one they used in the" shall we dance" poster! I always wondered where that came from. thanks for posting it.

I also can't really see it. Haras eyes, chin, nose & mouth, even eyebrows, all of which I think are some of her most defining features are quite different from this girls. I would not mistake her for Hara I am sure.

thanks, I have heard so many versions of what happened, but this is clearly proof of it. Lol, I thought it was kind of cute regardless & think Hara probably worried much too much about it. there is almost nothing she could do that would change my feelings of support for her, & this was just a tiny thing, but it is nice to see it was not something more.

Lol, ok when I read the thread title, I thought to myself "theres nothing that Hara can't make look good" but ok, you win, that is NOT a good look for Hara.

Hara (lol, of course) because besides just loving her in general, I love her sense of fun, her kindness, her attitude to others & the way that she projects herself in everything she does. I cannot imagine a day with Hara being anything short of amazing.

I would Date Hara, & shower her with gifts, Love & good times for as long as luck would let me.

awesome thanks! I had not seen this at all, so it was a nice find for me love getting new Hara treasure every day.

I really like both, and hope she continues to switch between them once in a while, but I voted for brown, just because I think its more versatile. as for looking innocent, I think one of the most natural, innocent looks I've seen for her is in the "shall we dance" show, where she had brown hair. she is just glowing in that. ( I liked her with the pink wig too!)

I have to agree that the fuzzy hats do put the Hara cute factor so high as to almost need a warning label.

I saw them perform with Lee Hyori, (the you go girl performance). I have been into Jpop & J-culture since 2003. I learned the language & made it a regular part of my life. but I only had a passing interest in Kpop, like BoA & Hyori, it always seemed a bit like it had to be one or the other, I don't know why. but after that show, I went on a Kara/Hara frenzy, and have been desperately trying to learn everything I can & see everything I can about Kara. Love the group, Love girls & especially Love Hara.
