i said this many times before and i say it again, Jiyoung is really growing up to be a beautiful young adult. She has a lot more confidence in herself too. Our maknae has come a long way. but i think we all agree that at the end of the day, she's still our cutie baby <3

i wish there were more of Gyuri's shots for DC Broadcast. but it's alright, goddess was awesomely awesomeo. one of my fav shots: this is just a Gyuri Pose to do. ^ i like that shot of her.

KARA made news as they performed after a long absence at the 2011 Dream Concert held in Korea a few days ago. It was decided that their fan meeting to be held in Seoul on 6/11 will be shown live in theaters across Japan. This fan meeting was limited to 4,000 attendees. It seems that various performances, not to mention songs and talk segments, are planned as the members wish to lessen their distance from fans. The live broadcast will be shown only in Japan, and only for one night. The broadcast content is expected to be a must-watch for fans. Simultaneous interpretation will be included also. For how to purchase tickets or information on participating theaters, please visit the KARA comeback event in Seoul live viewing official website.
