In the midst of all the girl group clamor, fans await for the comeback between Kara and BEG (Brown Eyed Girls).

'Women of the City' Brown Eyed Girls

The four member girl group BEG are near the stages of completion for their mid July comeback. They have already unveiled images from their coming album which revealed a classical and sexy image of the group.

BEG's image is not light and cute, rather it revolves around our new tunes, classic funk old style.

BEG's image is the 'Women of the City' where the whole body is used as an expression of their concept. We want 'Women of the City' to become the new icon for females.

In 2008, BEG their songs 'LOVE' and 'How Come' had made them an icon not only in the music industry but also in the realm of fashion.

Cuteness + Kara

If Brown Eyed Girls aims to project a more mid 20s mature feminine feel, then Kara continues to confidently display its young and fresh 20s look.

Since the end of 2008 and early 2009, 'Pretty Girl' and 'Honey' has immensely increased Kara's popularity and now prepare to comeback in late July.

Kara fans have been on the edge of their seats ever since DSP revealed Kara's comeback in July, anticipating what their next concept would be.

On June 26, Kara performed on KBS's Music Bank Fin.K.L.'s 'To My Boyfriend' flawlessly as part of their special stage performance.

Kara has revealed little hints like; "We're watching other girl groups with much interest" and "We will use this coming album as a way to show our growing image" "We still have our cute side, but

we will show a unique charm that only Kara has" which have been adding to the excitement for their return in late July.

As the big match girl group competition continues to intensify, fans have already lined up Brown Eyed Girls with Kara because of the proximity of their comeback (BEG in mid July, KARA late/end July).

lol, this article seemed to have more information about BEG than Kara, but then again, we the fans must know what our Kara is up against. BEG's concept seems interesting... Flaunting bare legs must be the new trend, looking at both snsd and beg.... does that mean we will see more of Nicole's toned calves and thighs? Only time will tell!

Hmm, this is interesting. I became a fan of BEGs' after their song "How Come" last year.

Girls groups these days are definitely going towards the sexy flirty concept. I don't think

Kara will be going that way any time soon, but I do wish they'd stop with the cute / fresh

Concept. Gyuri & Seung Yeon are getting older and more maturer, I feel they'd be more

Confortable with a more mature concept. But I guess we really don't know what Kara will

Be bringing this month until they've made their comeback. I'm really getting excited and

Nervous for their comeback. Thanks for sharing & I'm really anticipating their comeback!

thanks paul.

haha, as always, dsp would only release stuffs/teasers on the last week. i doubt we would be seeing/hearing anything as for now. if dsp keeps true their word, maybe we'll get to see the teasers late 3rd week of July? ^_^ like amy, i'm hoping they wont go on the cutesy route as well. lol. not something like rock u cute, definitely. :)

muahaha, a few more weeks to go!

thanks paul. :)

LOL i had to laugh at the end comment

but you're right, only time will tell :lol:

that seems like an interesting "battle" the fresh 20s vs the more classic look going into mid 20s !

makes me even more curious... ahhh Kara they need to tease us with more updates on their comeback :D

intense competition indeed, for all girl groups in 2nd half of 2009.

but i think kara is unique and special and has specific target group for their cute and fresh image, so better keep watching what they'll bring soon.

fighting kara
