coffeebeanie Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Kara is slowly becoming a blue chip (well-established, stable) in the advertising industry with their more matured image with "Pretty Girl". Because of the song's popularity, the CF proposals just keeps on coming for the group. The members of Kara recently came back with their second mini-album "Pretty Girl", and with their rising popularity, the various advertisement proposal keeps on pouring in. Kara's company says that the proposals that they've been getting were products for "drinks, food, products for females, and even clothes, which is good, for it shows the wide variety of products that is sought to be endorsed by Kara. The bright, lively and cute image of the group is highly valued by advertisers. There are 2-3 contracts that will be finalized by the end of this year." The groups concept for this mini-album is 'party girl'. They still maintained that cute girly image, but now, they've become more mature. The song, together with their fashion and dance goes well together, creating a stir in the industry. The unique factor that advertisers seek after Kara is the fact that the group has many girl fans and thus appeals to young girls everywhere. This is because up till this point, girl idol groups fan base were mainly composed of boys. For example, Kara's fans talk about what the girls wear on stage - headband, broach and other accessories, and thus, those items gain a lot of popularity. In Kara's fan cafe, the statistics show that there are more girls than boys. Their management explains "They are different from your typical idol group. Unlike dream-like doll images, they are more natural in the way they look, act and talk. The song is also easy to sing along to by the old and the young, either boys or girls which helped the track gain more popularity." credits: HANKOOKI NEWS thanks to mae! translated by coffeebeanie@karaholic.

Orange Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 actually it's good because Kara doesn't have any such as 'pedo fanboys' most of their fans 'idolize' them. Not pedo on them. And more fangirls is even more a better news. Because it only means that, not most girls hates them or whatnot. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanda Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 It's because of their image of Girl Next Door. Girls like more Kara because this group doesn't portrait an irreal image as the article said "dream-like dolls" or image as sexy symbol. Girls feel they can be Kara's friend. Kara is natural, nothing too concept. I'm proud to be a fangirl!!! This news is so comforting. No pedo fans rsrsrsrs. I'm glad that they're recieving so many proposal to cf. I can't wait to see them.
