cr: uploader I think this report is basically saying the same thing as other tran slated articles. About their #1 on Oricon DVD sales. cr: uploader DJ Kaori met KARA at their DJ event for fans, I think. Something about Gekidan Hitori was mentioned too lol

TT TT JCL and full cut taken off or removed.. darrrn. hopefully another person uploads this show! >.< edt: gahh might as well download the showw ploop edit: those that cannot download so easily, here's a mirror: http://www.yinyuetai.com/video/550903

Fantomas is right. 70k isnt that amazing compared to SG. IMO, UMJ and DSP should be alert on how to promote them now. Also, how many releases they...release. Lol Fans will always do the best they can but we have limits too. Including spending, following kara's activities, if we like their releases or not, and etc. Also the 275k in the first week was not all kamilia, so can't really blame decrease on fans. Better promotion and high quality releases(instead of quantity) please ;P About the songs, i don't like some of them. It would be good for a few listens, but nothing really my music style. In fact, I hated some of the tracks the first time I listened to them. I was hoping to like them, like with Super Girl. Sorry guys~ ;_; Some sound like anime osts though lol. And im still listening to them since Im in need of new kara songs. Orion is daebak though, gahhh!

IDK, it seems like an excuse to put the blame of the decrease in sales on japanese music industry decreasing overall. I think Kamilias should think of it like this... I was wrong in saying something is wrong with our girls. They are as bright and hardworking as last year. It's fine if people are losing interest in kara. As long as their releases have quality then people will comeback to buy their releases~ Also, keep in mind, that our girls dont always need number one. KARA's charm will reel in buyers and keep GF sales consistent I just had to remind myself of this ^^ Still sad that the sales are on the par of electric boy's sales which only has 1 or 2 songs. KARA's hoobae, A-JAX, is going to make a comeback so it made me feel better :33

what is happening with our girls in japan? :0

aishi, there goes my prediction. lol but i wont lose hope! >__< Ill lower my prediction to 200k lol edit: i hate logic lool, messin' with my hope yo'

^ thanks for sharing! It's always so interesting to see kara promotion in japan. Hoping for good sales~ ^^

Ugh, they made our jiyoungie cry in this episode. Young Ja is really rough with the girls. Dont know if I'm being biased but how can then spray jiyoung with water that long? She can take a joke once in awhile but Im pretty sure Jiyoung is a sensitive girl </3 If only I can send hate notes to young ja and shin young ;P Something other than the water bothered Jing though. First time saying, I'm glad Jiyoung doesnt have to associate herself with this kindof self degrating and disorganized show. At first I thought Jing could handle IY and she was having fun plus building her image but no. Not after this episode. Good thing she doesnt have to feel pressured to be funny and be pretty at the same time. Hopefully jing's drama shooting goes well! ^^ Also, I kindof want her to be the first kara member on WGM. Siwan and Jiyoung couple anyone? I think they would be sweet :33

Anyone have predictions~?? ^^ Their ninki rating is pretty high~ ^^ i'm hoping for platinum in a week? ^^ OH WHAT THE. SG had 275k first week. Sg's sales will be hard to beat. I reviewed the sales again and the numbers where steadily high OKAY. With my knowledge towards sales(which is completely nada) I'm predicting 80k-90k first day. 280k-290k first week. If the sales have high first day sales(like 100k) and a steady decrease, reaching 290k by the end of the week then ill conclude KARA hit somewhat of a peak in japan. But if they have a first day sale of around 80k and lower, but still reach 290k by being super steady like SG then kara girls are still on the rise~ :3 Or, they are accepted by the general public and not by fans or hardcore kpop fans. All my opinion though! lool

Gah..... kara not appearing on much japanese variety shows ;__; not even invited to this week's msta... why politics gotta be nosy anyways! May Girl's Forever sales beat Super Girl sales! >__< -writes letter to umj- I swear if the jacket photos are plain... (cuz i seriously do not understand how they came up with super girl album jackets) AHH. such a hit and miss with the cd covers :T

sales use to bother me a lot, but not that much anymore.. I just wanna see them on japanese variety shows ;__; it's been awhile.... I wanna see them interact with comedians, other artists, and idols groups.. wwahhhh.. I'm hoping they'll appear in music station. Oh wells, just hoping the 3rd album will have better sales :3 Anticipating the new songs! Orion is a great song~

If the photos were shared using tinypic then, no they will not be viewable.

Hello, KH'ers~ We, unfortunately, decided to blacklist all tinypic images. The problem is with tinypic. Several tinypic images that members posted up are showing inappropriate pictures(usually old posts). As a result, we have blacklisted all tinypic images and they will no longer show up. The only thing you guys will get is a "This URL was blacklisted." message. There are other image hosting/sharing sites available(photobucket, flickr, imageshack, and etc.). Anymore concerns regarding this then please post in this topic so staff can assist you.

hmmm... the general public doesnt know kara isnt releasing a 3rd album yet? but if i was a regular person id rather spend on karasia and download the single...

I'm hoping this single will sell 100k in first week ^^ anyone already have their predictions(on sales)? O__O

There was an article titled, 'WGM' Han Sunhwa, "Truthfully, instead of me, Kwanghee's father wanted KARA's Nicole[interview]" hehe, just to share... i secretly want cole to be on wgm ;o wgm tries to cater to the person's ideal type sometimes and i think any guy eith cole would make an interesting pair~

KARAHOLIC's 4th Anniversary (aka Pearl Peach Invasion) [ATTENTION] Due to some complaints on the pearl peach usernames(-teardrop-) the regular coloring is back~ But doesn't mean that you guys can't wish KH a happy 4th birthday ^^ Having a good night, after noon, or morning today, Karaholics? Members from around the world, Karaholic officially turns 4 years old! To celebrate this sudden birthday party of Karaholic(since we only officially celebrated the first birthday of Karaholic), Karaholic wants to share information about us. What is Karaholic? What is our goal? All that stuff. I'm hoping that KH'ers will take time to read everything. Also, the issue that everyone has been questioning: When is Karaholic going to switch seasons?(aka the GO! GO! Summer Layout) The Story of Karaholic Karaholic is the result of merging 2 fansites: Karabloom.net and kara-online.org. At first, the only place Kamilias had to spazz was soompi. However, a student for a website development class was given the assignment to create a website. That student was our original founder, @Arnel. Hand coded and armed with several supporters, Arnel decided to launch the website! Karabloom.net was born. Of course, this meant getting translators, staff to help run the website. ❝ Our only competition at the time (Kara-Online) overshadowed us in everything content wise except for one thing ... video downloads. For the first couple of months, I did everything myself by posting these videos for download which got a lot of attention since I almost had every Kara related video available. ❞ -Arnel The site was run independently by Arnel and because of his surplus of KARA videos, he was able to find some translators. After a few months, one of his iTee Admins, @minjoo, contacted him to suggest the idea of making karabloom a fansite. Hesitating, he decided to give it a shot and Karabloom had become a forum. How Karabloom looked like: http://z15.invisionfree.com/karabloom/index.php? Karabloom and Kara-online, which one persisted to become the International KARA District for Kamilia? ❝ After about a year of running KB, our only competition, Kara-Online had decided to call it quits and their founder (April) wanted to merge our 2 sites together. ❞ -Arnel It was decided to throw away the idea of being a fansite and become a forum! Karabloom.net was closed and on this day(Sept. 24th), 4 years ago. Karaholic forums was born! The story doesn't stop here though. [ Host Issues ] Karaholic ran into host issues because the sudden MIA of the founder, Arnel. With 12 days left and an advanced one year payment to fill, @tinggg stepped up to pay everything herself. Which is why, tinggg was under the "Godfather" group for awhile until the group was taken off. [ Epic Layout ] Anne(@chupachups), Pim, Minjoo, Nikoqi(@nikoqi), Chelly(@Chelly), Mae(@mae), In-in(@xichigo), Tinggg, Jiji(@jihaebutt), Joss(@hello! joss), Louise(@louise), and Yoo(@Yoochi) worked behind the scenes for the improvements of Karaholic! Arnel did everything for karabloom at first, but their contributions were a significant amount in Karaholic. Also, with a working (creative)team, the Epic Layout was created. Many discussions were conducted(and loss of sleep) before the Epic layout was made. Until this day, it is still the biggest Karaholic revolution because it had fancy layout work made by the new itee Admin at that time, Gab(@SilentSleeper). [ Malware ] Mid June Karaholic members and staffs were noticing a malware notice pop up. A karaholic member who is web developer by profession stated that the malware was not coming from Karaholic itself, but elements (for example, photos, etc.) posted in the thread that may have originate from [insert bad websites]. The Karaholic folder in the host server, the forums and the gallery folders were affected. Cleaning other things out were fine but because the gallery contained many scripts of the malware, it was taken down. Minjoo requested Google to review Karaholic so that they will put us off their blacklist and make us available to Firefox users again. With the help of Pim, they were able to find the malicious things. [ Donation Acceptance ] Suggested by a topic, staff happily agreed that if members were willing to help Karaholic, why not? Karaholic began taking donations and also updated with a new Karaholic donation tracker!! [ Media ] Karaholic use to directly upload files onto our server, since the big files put too much strain we changed it to uploading it on MF. However, on July 19 2012 our MF account(containing 2TB) was deleted. Karaholic has a lot more stories(ie allkpop issues, the long hiatus of karaholic, and etc), but those are the only ones I can mention, right now. DISCLAIMER: Karaholic Now Karaholic is going under changes in staff and system(sytem of staff, updating, sharing, small details, and etc.). If you guys and gals have not noticed, Karaholic has gotten 3 new administrators! Ron(@Lupang), Yuda(), and I, Neris(@neris)! Old staff that was essential in the making of Karaholic is under the Super☆ Advisor group. It's unfortunate that we do not have most old staff active anymore because they have retired. New staff(including us) are doing our best. The fact that Karaholic staff members have careers and school to attend to has not changed. This does not mean that Karaholic is always last on our lists, but just a notice. Karaholic's Goal Our goal is to be the #1 source for KARA updates. Also, a place for Kamilias to discuss and spazz. Right now, Karaholic has not yet fully fulfilled that goal. In the future, we hope to accomplish that goal and move on to a new goal(maybe being the #1 fastest source for KARA updates?!) Message to KH members We really appreciate those active members and since we are people too, we can see all those that support Karaholic as a member. So, thank you awesome kamilias ;__; <3 Even though it's not a rule we are enforcing yet(or, actually, a rule that has not been enforced in awhile), please do not camp out in the sbox. Guys... don't. When we do fully address this, it'll be enforced fully by all staff. We'll be making guides on how to set your notification settings so it's easier for members to discuss in Karaholic. So please, just keep this in mind. Layout, layout, layout pleaseee!! It has been a little warm in Karaholic because we've been summer all year round lol BUT, the layout is being worked on by our current founder(and awesome gfx designer), Pim(@우리0606∞) and iTee Admin, Wilson(@Wiiiilsonn!!). Successful Kamilia Events Karaholic is an International fansite, so we would like to recognize some successful Kamilia events~ Most recently, the karanesia gathering! Indonesian Kamilias gathered and shared events that involves Kpop and, of course, KARA! It was streamed live too. Get more info of their event here! cr: KAvenyou The K5J Fragrance press conference and showcase in Singapore was also another awesome event! Some pictures of early line ups were posted in the sbox as only the first 80 fans were allowed to get the autographed signature from KARA. ^^ Hopefully next time, Karasia concert in Singapore~!? Also, Karaholic's banner in Karasia concert! OH MY GOSHH. (btw, I can't find where but, Nicole actually said she has visited us before.) And lets not forgot the time when Kamilia from around the world and all different Kara Fansites gathered as one to help and support the victims of Japan during the earthquake crisis.The Jet Coast of Love Project Surprise: Birth of a New Karaholic I would love to tell more, but I can't! Just anticipate that the new look of Karaholic will not only be a new forum layout! The Pearl Peach Usernames ENOJY~ ^3^ Members of Karaholic are the ones that help Karaholic build it into the fan forum it is today~ So YESS! While it's still there, leave a shout out in the sbox and see how it looks~

I really liked the most recent episode!! ^^ got to see jing a lot :DD I use to watch the whole episode, but seriously, every part without Jing is so boring :T Shingyoung was praising Jing for being the brains, until she went back to jigoo!! loool~ And that one dude's confession was cute ^^ and it seemed more sincere :33 I think he said once he's a pro baseball player, he'll go back to find jing. if that is true, that would be really cute. but too many guys around jing, she might be taken by the time he's a pro D; good luck to him tho!

aww, okay, that's cute. cutest part was when nicole gets all of the shaving cream in the bowl, stands up and puts even more in his face lolol that was so not her acting, playful nicole!!! too bad jongsuk wont be able to handle her, need someone like key hahha jkjk gahh ron, make me feel bad ;_; -gets index card, letter, and a bunch of creative supplies- but really, every cole fan should bring in a fan letter for cole. something handmade means a lot~ all u guys need is stamp, envelope, index card and creativity.. if you guys have any problems then you should ask cuz ron will be happy to help(lool) :3 AANDDDD it doesnt have to have random korean phrases because cole will probably understand english WAYY better and feel the love more <33 :3

argh, version A of kara collection has so much content >3< Now that I've seen the japanese pvs of their solos, makes me wanna see the korean version even if there's probably a small difference.. plus the 60 minute documentary! now if only had BTS of their pv filming~ i wouldnt mind paying more lol gahh, cant wait to get a copy >3<!!

Aww, nicole's acting<33 but someone please rewrite this mv's ending. if he's still watching over her, then cole should have a second solo song called "Found" lol where jong suk doesnt seem like a doll or a big teddy that nicole shaves and/or cuddles with lol the small scenes were really cute, but they all look like a honeymoon phase to me. but from what i read, guess he really was just a first time boyfriend and not a true love >3< Anyways! Nicole looks so gorgeous throughout this whole mv. And the dresses she wore in the scenes with jongsuk was so feminine, girly, and gyaa!! SOO PRETTYYYY<33 And her sparkly gold eye make up is beautiful!
