xichigo Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 5 member Korean girl group KARA released their best album “KARA BEST 2007-2010” on September 29th. It has been announced on their official site on October 1st that it will include a bonus. The bonus is that the girls will give a photograph to the applicants to show their gratitude. Also, among those applicants 10 will be chosen via lottery to attend a meet & greet session on October 15th. Application details can be found on the website [here]. The best album starts off with their debut song “Mister”. The album spans from their debut in 2007 until now and features 12 of their Korean hit songs. It comes in a limited edition and a regular edition. The limited edition version includes a DVD which shows their arrival in Japan event as well as off shot photos from their stay. Moreover, on the 9/28 daily album ranking the girls sold 18,000 copies in the first day and entered the charts at rank #2.

goddessfollower Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Fantastic marketing. Kara's selling their image as the group next door (think grassroots movement) vs. omg all hail from above descent of holy angels, which usually creates stronger and longer lasting fanbases. And I know the girls love to meet fans when possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
