300... DID THEY SAY 300? THIS. IS. SPARTA! HEAR THE ROARING OF SPARTANS' CHEER! its official. Kamilians = Spartans now. lol only official in my worrlldd.

Kara has become one of the three leading girl groups of today, along with Wonder Girls and SNSD. Kara told us that they wanted all the girl groups to succeed in their own color. Kara told Joy News 24, “we were able to find our own color in year 2008. Rather than being just pretty like dolls, we wanted to emphasize our natural and ‘free’ image.” Kara also even told us, “It is true that we are always checking and curious about what the other girl groups are going to bring out next time. But, we also want the other girl groups to succeed rather than thinking of them as our archrivals.” Even though some people may call these groups rivals, the members are good friends with other groups’ members. Park Gyuri and her high school friend, Yoobin, keep in touch and encourage each other. Nicole is a good friend with SNSD’s Hyoyeon and Tiffany. Seung Yeon also told that she cheered for her Wonder Girls friends by dancing and singing along to Wonder Girl’s Nobody in KM’s SSGB where she is one of the MCs. “We hope that all the girl groups and their fans to become the best. The three girl groups haven’t really been active at the same time. Because we want to have a fair competition with just returned SNSD, we have been working hard to improve.” After releasing their second mini album, “Pretty Girl”, Kara has been acquiring a lot of popularity. Kara told us, “With the member swap, we were able to spread our name with our first mini album, “Rock U”, and we were able to find our own color through our second mini album, “Pretty Girl”. “ In addition, “We want to be known to be remembered as the girl group with natural and carefree image. We want to be known as the group with their own distinct color.” Lee Hyori’s “U-Go-Girl’s” little version, ‘Pretty Girl’, is gaining a lot of popularity with its catchy melody, Kim Gook Jin’s Ye Ye Ye Dance and fans’ red rubber glove cheering. source: Joy News 24 Tip Off: Anne!

Is it because of the addition of young members to the group? Kara who was reborn with 5 members (Park Gyuri, Jung Nicole, Han Seung Yeon, Goo Hara, Kang Ji Young) is getting younger and prettier. After Goo Hara (18) and Kang Ji Young (15) joined the group, the group’s average age became 18.6 years old, 1.4 younger than before. “With the addition of younger members, we were able to adopt the cute image. After the new members were added to the group, the original members are responsible for leading the group while the new members are bringing new fresh air to the group.” (Han Seung Yeon) The former 4-member group Kara went through at hard time after Kim Sung Hee left the group. When the former main vocal, Kim Sung Hee, left the group, Kara was in danger of being disbanded. Even though they auditioned 5000 people to replace Kim Sung Hee, they weren’t able to find the right person fast. “Because of all the hardships we went through, I think that is why all the members in Kara are so close together. Wonder Girls is a good example of a success after a member switch. I believe that the members took these hardships as a chance to become one.” (Park Gyuri) The most recent mini album, “Pretty Girl”, showed the cute and bright side of this group. The music video teaser received 50,000 views in mere 12 hours since its release, and also, the new members, Kang Ji Young and Goo Hara, were one of the most searched on the internet. Their cute dance moves like the make up dance or the Yea Yea Yea dance make us feel like as if we are watching the early days of Fin.K.L again. “We are now hearing that we have finally got the 2nd Fin.K.L image. Whenever we meet Hyori Unnie, she would always compliment us and encourage us to work harder” (Jung Nicole) The middle schooler, Kang Ji Young was able to join Kara through her relative’s introduction to DSP Entertainment. Goo Hara from Gwang Joo was working as a model before joining Kara. Goo Hara has a lot of male fans because of her similarity to a Japanese star, Amuro Namie. “During our comeback stage at Music Bank, I accidentally stepped on Nicole’s foot and made a sound. After that incident, the video clip of my mistake became the most searched on the internet.” (Goo Hara) Goo Hara thought that she would get scolded by her manager because of the mistake but, “I was able to spread my name more through the mistake,” Goo Hara said while smiling. To Kara, the year 2009 is the year for them to re-enter the battle to become the best. “We are all charged up and ready to go. All the girl groups out there! get ready!” (Laughter) Link:Ilgan Sports Tip off: Anne Translated by Hopelesshong @ KARAholic Take out with full credits, do not add in or remove anything.

I was watching Hana Yori Dango/Boys over Flower korean version and the main girl's best friend's cellphone ringtone was pretty girl~~~ :]:] i think it was lol it was on for like 2 seconds but it was def the chorus part of pretty girl or may be i just have bad ears... but yea :] tee hee

I am sorry if this was posted before somewhre butttttttttttt a little repetition of jiyoung can never hurt right? haha soooo0o0o0o0o0o cute >_< playing with the confetti askjfkad sooo cute i don't know which music show this was but yea lol

^ this segment used to have a kid giving clues to words in his point of view he got really popular from this segment though if you remember from one of the episodes of Family Needed, Seungyeon goes around trying to sell her family's CD and she comes to this one comedian and and asks him if he wants the cd to be signed for his son but he tells seungyeon that he is more famous than her, thats' that little guy who was doing that segment before they got the foreigners back in. he was on that corner for quiet a while. but yea i think they were switching around people quite a bit in the beginning cuz they weren't really getting a lot of attention but ever since Nicole came on, it has been getting pretty popular so i think she's gonna stay there for a pretty long time i think. i hope. :]

bahahaha this is what you call OTL for gyuri. 지못미!! (korean internet acronym that stands for sorry i couldnt protect you) haha find that guy and beat him rawr! haha kidding~

bahahahahaha this article is pretty funny rofl SY feeling the age eh? woo ty for the translations Tingggggggg

MY GOD it is IMPOSSIBLE to answer the questions with her clues. i seriously wonder how those people do it. like they must know the answer before they listen to the hints. it was seriously impossible for me. my mom was having a hard time too hahaha but it was funnnnnny as heckk her imagination is out of this world. how the heck do you get those kind of clues from those words? and for the mouse one the answer didnt translate to "Rat Poison" it was suppose to be "a Mouse in dok" dok in this place is not Poison but jang dok dae, a korean pottery where they ferment like soy sauce, kimchi and other food stuff. but poison in korean is dok too so she prob thought the idiom she was explaining said a mouse with poison or something... and one that was amazing last sat was the one where she used Bae Young Joon's japanese name the idiom was something about Mantis (can't remember the whole phrase) and mantis in korean is Sa Ma Gi and japanese people call BYJ Yon Sa Ma so she gave that name as one of the clues... WOW SOOOO FUNNY

:] so cute so cute so cute sooooososososososoosos cute. just brings smiles to my face.

!!!!!!!!!! I can teach Jiyoung her algebra!!!!!!!!!! kekekekeke man that was sooooo funny i had a good laugh watch that :] thanks for translating

The real appeal of the stars is that they have many different characters. The girl group, Kara, is getting a lot of attention for having a completely different personality when they are off the stage. Like their nickname, the

^ MY GOD THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh man exceptional. and they used old old old commercial. made it 1000 times better. see that's what i am talking about rubber glove commerical is the best for Kara it will sell like crazy if kara made a cf for it :)hahaha

rubber gloves. i think its gonna be a hit.... and i would actually laugh my butt off and treasure it in my comp for 1000000 years if they actually do it. it would be FAHNTARSTIC. MIND BLAWSTING

^ noooo of course not! if it was random comedy thing then they wouldn't have written an article even before it aired! Wang biho is like one of the most popular comedian in Korea right now! and if he talks about you, then you are GOLDEN. he made fun of G-dragon before i believe Taeyeon from SNSD too and not too sure if he did WG but he prob did.

nicenice if a celebrity is talked about on comedy program or appears on comedy shows, it shows that they are pretty darn popular and if wangbiho makes fun of them, that means they are REALLY popular. ah Kara. finally :] they are getting recognized so much brings tears to my eyes :'] the tears of joy! haha
