Kara's "Uncle Kim Gookjin 'Yeah Yeah' Dance Weapon"

5-member girl group Kara has armed themselves with gag man Kim Gookjin's "Yeah Yeah" dance to meet their fans.

Last week they began promoting their second mini album's current title track, "Pretty Girl."

Kara's 2nd mini album's "Pretty Girl" has a light-hearted Christmas feeling, and the song "Honey's" popularity has been increasing rapidly online, and the offline record sales have also had a strong showing. On the 10th, Music Sale Search Chart, Hanteo Chart's daytime chart (December 3-9)'s Top 10 saw their album gradually rising within the rankings.

Kara's increase in popularity began with the summer's first mini album "Rock U," and through their down to earth and cute, colorful confidence, they have grabbed the public's awareness and caused their own craze. In "Pretty Girl" they also wore pink clothing and bright accessories to show their cuteness with pride.

During the song they even do Kim Gookjin's so-called "Yeah Yeah Dance," which has brought many smiles to fans. "Pretty Girl" uses the move from Kim Gookjin's MBC "Golden Fishery," in which everytime he's feeling happy he would raise both his arms to the sky and shout "Yeah Yeah" while shaking his upper body left and right.

Recently on Money Today's Star News Interview with Kara, they said "we're dancing the "Yeah Yeah Dance" to be like Kim Gookjin Ahjuhssi's "Yeah Yeah Dance" since the dance is easy to do and the lyrics are easy as well." "So we hope many people will like it," they laughed.

"It's not just Kim Gookjin Ahjuhssi's dance, you can also see the expression-filled Kang Hodong Ahjuhssi's 'I like it dance,'" they said with a smile.
