Here is a guide that will help you support KARA to the fullest in their CUPID Comeback!   

 

MUSIC VIDEO

- Please share the official link for the MV as much as possible! Twitter, facebook, tumblr, LINE, Whatsapp, Kakao, whatever the sns, do it. Tell your friends to share it too. Each view count and it's very precious.

 

 

- 1theK also has a version of the MV, but their views do not count to all music shows!
