It was okay, but I hoped for more. I like 0J and always watch what she is doing in the videos, as well as the reactions of the others to her. This video reminds me that I really miss Nicole and Jiyoung. I think that the MV would have had a lot more pizazz with them. I would love to have KARA 5 again, and I'd be happy to include 0J in a KARA 6. Nevertheless, I think this song will perform well on tour, and if the upcoming album is strong, that will make Mamma Mia even more popular.

The more I see of the videos today, the more I wish we now had KARA 6: including Nicole, JiYoung and 0J. 0J with the bat pictures above: so cute! She actually looks pretty athletic. If she were not goofing around and being pretty and cute for the fans, I actually think she is athletic and could have been a good baseball or softball player.

Hara's hair: I liked it a lot better in the dance video. When I said that I didn't like it in the photo, I was referring just to how it looks in that particular photo. She is beautiful no matter what she does, and she was beautiful in the video.

I liked the "behind the scenes" or "making the film" videos. It seemed there was more interaction and dancing and opportunity to listen to an extended version of the music. I think there are a lot of possibilities to expand on this in live performances. It grows on me each time I watch the video and listen to the catchy tune. Hara seemed to have a leading role among the dancers--and she is beautiful and experienced; so it is a good choice whenever she has a prominent role. All were good. From what little we have seen so far, I see mostly Gyuri being the one to (as group leader) integrate Young Ji into the group. Gyuri is often seen talking to Young Ji and holding arms around her. That is great. I would like to see some similar interaction of Hammie and Hara with Young Ji. I hope that by now they like her or that they always did. So far, when they stand in a row of four, it always seems that 0J is at the far left with Gyuri next to her--in effect visually keeping 0J even more separate from interaction with Hammie and Hara who act as a second pair. My general impression (colored by the fact that we know that it hasn't been long since the Baby Kara Project) is that we have three super performers who are the Kara we always knew (minus the former members), plus 0J working hard and trying to fit in as a talented but less experienced newcomer. I think a lot is going to develop and change as they actually go through an extended tour of performances in different cities in Japan and Korea.

The song may grow on me, but so far it doesn't come close to past Kara hits such as Mister, Lupin, Step, and Pandora. This song seemed more fitting to the problems of quickly coming back with a new member. There was minimal group dancing, and the choreography seemed pretty simple to me. Most of the scenes were individual shots of each girl's modeling separately, and then pieced together. I still await more from the new KARA 4. I am a fan of each of the four, and I have great hopes. I think the comeback will be successful. I am glad that from the posts, most of the fans really like this new song.

We each have different tastes. I don't like Hara's hairstyle in this photo. And Youngji looks more attractive in many of her other photos. To me, Hammie looks the best in this photo. I would also like to see more photos where Youngji is more integrated into the group than usually standing or dancing at the far end.

Thanks for this video. So cute! And Youngji swung late so as not to "show up" Gyuri's short pitch.

Does 0J still have a leg injury? What leg injury? A pulled hamstring?

This is going to be great! I have watched the trailer over and over, pausing on different frames to be sure I was seeing who each girl was and the scene with Gyuri's arm around Youngji. One time I was able to stop the frame around 5 to 7 seconds into the trailer, to see a freeze-frame of a perfect arm pattern--like a spider web.

I am very happy with both of these facts--practicing with Gyuri and Youngji's Twitter page.

Until I clicked on a link in an "allkpop" article, I couldn't find her Twitter page in order to follow it. I find Twitter very hard to locate official pages of an actual celebrity, rather than pages opened by some fan or just search results of individual Twitter posts. For example, there are search results for "Kara Youngji" and "@Youngji" that don't seem to be Youngji's Twitter page, even though they contain photos and posts about her. As for the allkpop linked page, I assume this is the correct page because I signed when it showed 8,288 followers. But the name of the page seemed to be 허영지 @hyjiiiii안녕하세요~ 카라의 영지입니다~ Using Google Translate, this doesn't make much sense to me. It translates as: Not vanity hyjiiiii The territory of hi ~ Kara ~

I would love to meet them or at least to see a live performance. But I doubt they will ever travel to Houston, even though there is a large Asian population here and some Asian pop groups have passed through. I'm the only one in my family with an Asian pop fixation, and so travel to see them is not a practical option for me. If I were single, I would be on a plane to Korea or Japan to see Kara.

I like her a lot. I think she is going to do fine. If they ever add Somin or another member to restore a five-member KARA, that will be fine with me, too. Young Ji is pretty and did a good job in her Baby Kara performances. I was always watching her, and she attracts lots of people--remember her global popularity scores.

I think Gyuri was unhappy and emotional over the departure of Nicole and JiYoung, with the added unsettling prospect of change. Then the prospect was to add a guest--itself not happy compared to the successful years of KARA 5. Then came the decision--probably by DSP and not Gyuri--to have the Baby Kara Project, with the result that a new, "permanent" member was largely selected beyond her control-unlike when years earlier she had interviewed Nicole and JiYoung. I do like YoungJi, and I hope the new KARA 4 will soon find happiness and success. I hope we all support them.

I don't know if I successfully used the Karaholic link or not. I clicked on the one sent by Jappy. That took me to the correct order location inside yesasia.com. (There are different links, however, depending on whether you need yesasia's North America site or not. Jappy sent me both.). When I tried to buy at the linked yesasia.com web page, I was required to log in. I did so, but then the website produced a home or other web page. So I had to use yesasia.com's own search field to re-locate and buy the 6th Mini Album. I don't know if my having to search again for the page, once logged in, broke the link sent by Jappy or not. If it did, Karaholic might not receive the credit that I hoped to provide. But the link from Jappy definitely will provide the Karaholic credit if you are FIRST registered and logged in BEFORE you click on the "Yesasia affiliation" link provided by Jappy and referred to by Flamestalker.

Thanks to a yesasia.com link sent to me by Jappy, I pre-ordered Day & Night today. There was an option to purchase it with or without a poster. Either way, the album includes a book of photos. If you do a search inside yesasia.com, you can find it by typing into the search field either "6th Mini Album" or "Kara Mini Album Vol. 6". The website says that they will ship it on August 22.

For me, Step is number one, and Mister is a close second. Then I have to think, and it's fairly easy to add Lupin and Pandora. Then I really have to think . . . The latest songs, Runaway and Damaged Lady, don't do much for me. I guess I should watch and listen to them more carefully, since they do get a lot of votes.

0G looked a lot less experienced at facial modeling than did Gyuri. To be expected.

Hara and Seungyeon are so, so beautiful. Perfect models and photography. Add in Young Ji and Gyuri from yesterday, and it's almost funny how beautiful the KARA 4 are. If they dance and sing half as good as they look, then the dancing and singing will be better than we can imagine.

They are all beautiful! I'm an 0J (and Somin) fan, but I agree with Mockingjay's post above: Gyuri really nailed it! She is perfect! Even notice her straight upper back and shoulders ... And we could go on and on about why.

I am surprised if we still don't know what Nicole's plans are. Being overseas, I don't even see if she is on local TV shows or other public appearances. I will be glad to see her back when it happens. Missing her . . .

I love Seungyeon's profile. It shows lots of intelligence, experience, accomplishment, humor (including making fun of herself), and a great personality. I think she would be the most fun KARA member to know personally. Oh . . . I remember that on one of my KARA Blu-ray discs, they were interviewing each KARA 5 member as to what she thought of each of the other members. One of the girls, talking about Seungyeon, said "She has the best pelvis." I wouldn't argue with that point. It's not in her profile, but it adds to her allure.

I pre-ordered from yesasia.com the new release of Mamma Mia. But so far I haven't been able to find a place to be able to pre-order Day and Night.

In some of her photos, she looks "normal", but in others, she looks incredibly beautiful and sexy. In the opening picture in this thread, I agree that she looks spectacular--perfect! So beautiful and sexy!

I am glad we will see KARA 4 sooner rather than later, but I also am worried about how much they are demanding of Young Ji so quickly--and even with the addition of the Japanese language on top of everything else. If she pulls this off, she will be great indeed. She must be exhausted with the learning, physical demands, and emotion. Maybe being young helps her energy and resiliency.
