☁ haQue ☁ Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 im wondering how about going to US? but no, i dont think Kara's musics will be suitable for majors there JAPAN is the best choice! not to mention about it, but Kara's songs mostly a bit resembles to J-pop i feel it since i was an Anime OST lover b4 :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea37fc Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I wish Kara could make big success especially in Europe Of course in USA as well ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bingsong Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 not to offend kara in anyway, cause i love them, but i dont know how well they can do in america. i can understand places like china and japan because they're so close. physcially that is. its easier there for them to understand and communicate. but here in the us like me, its a lot harder for them to popular cause were really quite far away. the wonder girls are a good example, so is rain. very big in the asian countries surrounding korea, but in the us, i only found out who rain was due to ninja assassian. and the wonder girls from my sis and i heard they opened for the jonas brothers. i want them to come to the us, but it might be too early for them.

사랑해 Nicole Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 ^ I totally agree with you. It seems like what ever Korean star that goes to America, their fame suddenly dies down. Look at Wonder Girls, after they went to America, what happened to them? I haven't heard of them ever since they went to America. Same goes for Rain, it is only until recently when Rain's planning on making a comeback on the K-pop scene, rumored to be releasing 2 k-pop album this year, then I heard about his news. Let's not be so greedy, as long as they are super famous in Asia, I'm super satisfied and happy for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Dragon Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 possibly... but id prefer for them to stay in just korea so they can focus more on their true music. instead of having to learn a new language and adapt to the culture (as in adapt to the style of music so they would have to change their own too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoA3401 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) I want Kara and all the other korean artist who try to make a cross to US succeed .... but its just not the same. We love them here but it wouldn't play in their favour if they did. The language barrier and taking the time to learn english would not be benefical to them now...Kara Fighting!!!!!!

za1z Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 i hope not. korean artists singing in foreign languages just doesn't feel/sound right. They would never be as popular as the locals(native speakers) Even if they do sell in the short term, it probably wouldn't last better to have a long, steady career in your home base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginuwine Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 i have no doubt they will be successful and well loved in all the Asia country As for America it would be hard as the genre of music is very different there therefore i would prefer them to establish themselves first in Asia before making any move elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiro Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 I agree with u.. i'm afraid if they go went out to US they will be like Wonder Girls.. all the best KARA !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radenoactive Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 They already step on their first stone when they will debut in Japan in this May.. It is good, but i really hope that they dont too concentrate about it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neris Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 I can't wait for Japan! As for america, well, America isn't that nice xD There are more outspoken people than respectful ones xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzily Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 I think they can make it big in Japan. After all, they already entered the Oricon charts, so debuting in Japan wouldn't be too much of a hassle for our girls~ And I'm confident that they can take on America too, since they have Nicole with them. Hopefully they also visit other countries soon (come to the Philippines please~). Kara fighting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenzo77 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 i hope they will do a promotion concert not just in Japan, i hope that someday they will come to the rest of the Asian country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KokoroBeach Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 They will dominate and definitely have the potential to take on Asia. But truth be told, getting big in the U.S is going to be very very hard. The U.S music industry just isn't into that, as well as in Europe (but things are dead in Europe anyway ^.^). I predict the most fame Kara will have will stretch from all of Asia, to the small pockets of fans in countries outside of Asia. Still KARA FIGHTING!!

krishen Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 well they maybe have not many chances in the USA but in asia it should be easier for them to dominate,good luck to kara in japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dookiemonstar Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 non-fluent english speakers should not even try to enter the american music market they are just too xenophobic for that but i think they have a good shot at japan! as long as they sincerely put effort into learning the language and culture i think japanese people will embrace them.

DGzun Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Asian stars are not really suited for the Us. They are not into pop/idol groups. So I don't want them to go to US. But I'm sure they can succeed in Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwise Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Being successful in the U.S. will be very hard, almost impossible. Utada, who was said to be the one Asian artist with the biggest chance of making a splash in the U.S. market, mainly because she already had lived in the U.S. and spoke English fluently, had a tough time here. She had to change her style so much just to have any viability in the U.S. music industry. So, if even Hikki had to constrain herself in terms of that, I think it'll be tough for others as well. Of course, given the whole situation with Jay Park now and how he's kind of blowing up in the music scene, I think it may start to change. But it will take a while. As far as Japan goes, I think they will do well. Having listened to their tracks that have now been released in Japan, I think that Kara should definitely have a good amount of success there.

shermie Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 i guess after DBSK and BoA everyone wants to tap into the japan market. language-wise is easier to pick up i guess..? it's definitely easier to pick up japanese than english from scratch...

azn_ToTo Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 it would be pretty kool if they debuted in other countries that speak english since english is a really famous language like korean jap and chinese( canto, mandarian) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
