Album [2012.08.22] Korean 5th Mini Album - Pandora

[iAyu 6]

I really liked the song in the first listen. For me the song didn't dissapoint me, I felt that sweetune gave KARA a really nice worthy song and was amazingly composed. From the beginning to end! I felt that the music video was really put well together, and maybe I did want a little more of a story line. And for an odd reason I felt like Sweetune wanted to link Infinite and KARA together...I would have like to see sungjong opening the box...anyways the music video was nice!! I actually feel that they matured to a more fierce style but I did feel that feminie feel as well, especially because Gyuri, Seungyeon and Jiyoung captured more of the feminie essence. On the other hand, Hara and Nicole captured the fierce feel. I guess the teaser did give accurate feel to what each member would be portraying in the music video. I LOVED the dance!! I liked that hand move and the showing back part!!! ^///^

I loved that the song was a bit fast paced, it was something that made me attracted to song when I heard Jiyoung first I was like hands down amazing, then when I heard HaNiJing rap I was like mindblown they definitely stepped it up with that rap! Then right after it was Gyul and Hammie's part I was like "yup this is it, need that high note and it will be complete to my ears!" that's when I hear Ham I was so happy that I almost missed Gyuri's ad-lib! It finished, and I was in heaven! I liked the album I did think there would be more ballads but it was more of the cutesy but I like that too on KARA. I'm glad to have pre-ordered the album!! The showcase was amazing, can't wait for their comeback stages!!

Thanks for the eng sub!

The MV and the song... gosh they're amazing! The album is definitely worth buying.

When I first listened to Pandora I didn't really think it was that great of a song but after awhile, I find myself replaying the MV over and over again. So I can say that the song is very addictive.

After watching the showcase, I think Miss U is also a great song and will be one of my favorite Kara songs.

Pandora is just pure eargasmic... everyone's loving the rap part + adlibs too ;_; but I have to say I think Way is my 2nd fav track after pandora ^^

Is it only me or does this song have an OST feel to it? I feel like I'm watching a drama when I'm listening to this.

At first, I wasn't sure if i had the "this is a hit" feel (like i did with STEP) or not. But loving it now that I listened to it multiple times. Def addictive.

KARA fighting!

OOOOh just listened to Pandora on youtube

i fell in love with it great job girls on your comeback!

OMG I love the song, it just song some great. Love the moves, I do agree that gyuri, seungyeon, and jiyoung brought the femine side to the song. Yet cole and hara brought the fierce side to the song. Love seungyeon high notes, I miss hear that. I love the outfit in this mv. I think we are all disappointed that they didn't have a storyline, since I think just the title pandora you can defintely come with many storyline for that title.

Wow pretty pictures. Gyuri really is beautiful. She looks so foreign and mixed.

Is that part of Pandora album or something?

in all honestly, by first listen I didn't like Pandora. I didn't find it as catchy but after a few more listens I found myself hooked. I would be doing other stuff but randomly go on youtube and keep replaying the MV. XD I am officially in love.

I think I've listened to Pandora over a hundred times today and still love it.

It's easier to get into Pandora than Step. For me, it's mostly because Seungyeon didn't sound that good in Step, but she sounds awesome in Pandora.
