    Kara were HUGE in their time, they were particularly popular in Japan. They were one of Girls Generation's biggest rivals at the height of their career. They are another group that were really good at switching concepts from one comeback to the next.
    Iconic and great songs of theirs include "Mister" "Mamma Mia" "Damaged Lady" "Honey"

    Another group that we can't ever go back to... sigh.. KARA's Mister is their massive hit, similar to how Gee is to SNSD, I'd reco checking that out! Lupin is also a great classic of KARA's, I personally also like Damaged Lady as well as their latest 2 comebacks (I say latest 2 but it has been years since the comebacks) Mamma Mia and Cupid. These 2 comebacks were with a new (& young) member Youngji and she surprisingly fit with the other members (who are at least 7 group-years old by then) pretty well!
    edit: They were extremely popular in Japan! KARA was more popular than SNSD in Japan in the 2009s to 2010s but of course as time passed their popularity equated to each other's
    edit again bc I googled sth I shouldnt have and now Im so emotional: It has been 5 and 6 years since their 2 comebacks T_T

      Fun fact it was actually honey that put them as SNSD'S competition back then, honey was so big it was one of the only songs to break Gee by SNSD streak at the top spot on music shows the other being brown eyed girls abracadabra. Mr was actually there break out into the international scene realistically. A lot of people forget that Honey really blew them up domestically, it was even chosen by fans as there repackage single for there pretty girl mini album.

    Kara were apart of the legendary “WonSoKa Line" alongside Wonder Girls & Girls Generation. they pretty much started the 2nd Generation of kpop for girl groups. I recommend that you listen to Kara’s Debut song BREAK IT & Mister ( their most successful song). Love your reactions 😊💜

    They started out with really cute music, and then branched out. They were really big, it was really sad when two members left. They had a reality show called "Baby Kara" where girls competed to join Kara and they continued on for a bit with four members, sadly they disbanded, I think two comebacks later or something like that. One of the members, Goo Hara, passed away last year, sadly. She was great friends with Sully, her passing was only a month after Sully's

    KARA was huge back in their time. Seriously back at the peak of Gen 2 you'd constantly have variety shows trying to ask celebs/other artists whether they preferred SNSD, KARA & Wonder Girls bc they were the hot girl groups. They were the first girl group to make it big in Japan I believe too. They had so many iconic dances that swept the hallyu wave that younger artists would always cover. Def a group worth checking out. 2nd Gen was where it was it!

      The first Korean gg to sell out the Tokyo Dome and my first ult gg. Their first single ‘Break It’ was ahead of its time and wasn’t well received, forcing them to change their concept to a cuter one until they became more successful. They were arguably more popular and appreciated in Japan than Korea, and remained my ult gg until they disbanded.

    kara is seriously one of my ult fave artists, i'm so happy you decided to check them out! their song mister is what made them really popular, it was their first big hit. other songs i'd suggest are lupin (2010), damaged lady (2013), mamma mia (2014), cupid (2015) and jumping (2010). they disbanded in 2016. cupid was their last title track/album promotion (album is 'In Love', their 7th EP). they debuted back in 2007 and have also gone through a few line-up changes, but this line-up of 5 members Seungyeon, Nicole, Gyuri, Jiyoung and Hara is the most notable and their longest line-up from 2008 to 2014. nicole left the group early in 2014 and she's a solo artist now. they released mamma mia with new member Youngji. it's actually really interesting, bcs when they first debuted (line-up of Gyuri, Seungyeon, Sunghee and Nicole), they had more of an R&B type sound but it was after that in 2008 that they had a more cutesy concept/image with songs like rock u, pretty girl (both released in 2008) and honey (2009), but then their concept changed again to be very different after that. with their 2nd full length album Revolution, from this album, although Wanna was the lead title track, mister became super popular in Korea. after that, they stuck with a more strong/charismatic/sexy concept. most of the members now are actresses. unfortunately, Hara passed away last year on nov 24. i really miss her a lot... kara was one of the first groups i got into back in 2013, so i grew up listening to them and i still do. they're amazing and one of the best kpop artists imo. i also recommend you to check out other older kpop artists like 9muses, aoa, 4minute, ze:a, teen top, vixx, t-ara, apink, tvxq/jyj, sistar, infinite and super junior ^^

    Also, I will NEVER forget Goo Hara. She had so much to give to this world, and it did her so wrong. She didn't deserve any of what happened.

      Yeah The company suck. If it just let Nicole doing her solo work alongside with Kara, like BEG's gain. They wouldn't be disbanded then. Stupid company ruining their only money-making group with that decision, and the stupiest idea of putting that woman into the group with delusion of selling and eating with Kara name. What a joke. They can't even managed Hara's scandals well and can't do sh*t to protect her at all. And she's even at the highest point of her career then. I'm still upset thinking of all those years, seeing the confident, bright and brilliant little girl become duller years by years until she met that f*cking beast that ruined her life yet she no longer loved herself enough to dump him.

    KARA debuted 2007 disbanded 2014/2016.. They're very known and famous back then especially out of Korea but they're also one of the famous and popular 2nd gen groups.
    They were SNSD rivals back at the time, but their company was the most shttt company you can imagine.. they have such a long looong story.. PAINFUL STORY behind their success unfortunately.. they were also so underrated too even though they were famous.
    The member you liked in STEP mv the girl with the leggings in the middle is HARA! 💕
    She is no longer with us.. she left after Sulli her best friend.. she couldn't handle the hate, betrayal, ugly treatment and also her past was so terrible too.. she was an abandoned child by the age of 6 and she been alone with her brother in the poorest environment ever.. she suffered a lot and I mean A LOTTTTT.. she was sweet, lovely, cute, very nice and the purest one ever.. she was alone... I miss her so much.

    Having said that "step" is such a bittersweet song, it is so optimistic and positive, but there was a darkness makes it so hard to listen to for me. Kpop may project such a bright image but there are things going on underneath that sheen that contradicts that.

    Kara, Most people focus on Mister. when discussing Kara, which, originally a Japanese track and exploded them to new heights there. No official Mr. Music Video exists which is why Step has a higher view count. However Kara's hits extend to their R&B vocal power debut "Break it",
    "Rock U"
    "Pretty Girl",
    "Lupin" Their only song to hit number 1 on Korea's Gaon Chart.
    "Jumping".
    and Mamma Mia, their first song with the addition of new Member Young ji after the departure of Nicole, and Jiyoung.

    KARA was another iconic group during the late 2000’s. They came out with bop after bop, and they created what’s known as the “butt dance” from their hit song Mister. SNSD, KARA, T-ARA, Brown Eyed Girls, and Wonder Girls were all legendary groups that debuted in 2006-2007 (the 2nd wave of girl groups in kpop history). KARA was considered the queens in Japan. You gotta check Mister, Mamma Mia and Lupin out. Such iconic songs. My personally favorites. I really miss them, just sad we can’t ever have them back. You said that your favorite in Step was the girl in the center with the leggings. That would be Goo Hara, she’s also my bias in their group. Also, famous for her famous ponytail if you get around to reacting to Lupin. Sadly she isn’t with us anymore, though she definitely is remembered by everyone who appreciated her as a wonderful person, friend, and artist.

    I absolutely loved Kara. My heart broke when Hara left this world. She was such a genuinely sweet girl. Kara was friends with Girl’s Generation as they promoted at the same time. You should react to Mister, Damaged Lady, Mamma Mia and Cupid. I think you will like them! Also, Yuri, one the vocal members, is quite a character. She called herself The Goddess. 😅

    KARA is one of my favorite k-pop female groups ever! They have so many great songs! I’m very excited that you are watching and reacting to these videos. 😊 I do hope you watch more! Some people have left a lot of good suggestions for other songs already. Please do keep exploring and thanks for the great videos!

    The genre can pretty much be summed up as "Sweetune". They were a songwriter group that made songs for several kpop acts, their most popular associations being KARA, Infinite, and Nine Muses. Their style was dance, electro, 80's synth-pop, disco, a really cool mish-mash of sounds that produced some of the last decade's most iconic songs. Lupin, Step, Pandora, A, BTD, The Chaser, Be Mine, Paradise, Wild, just to name a few. Though their songs were more popular because of the acts they were associated with, Sweetune sort of gained a cult following because many felt they were not quite as appreciated as some of the bigger money-making kpop producers. The Chaser by Infinite, for example, was named Billboard's best kpop song of 2012. That was the same year that gave us Psy's Gangnam Style, by the way. It was also named one of the best boy group songs of all time by Rolling Stone, a list that included a total of only 9 kpop songs among 75. Sweetune did THAT. This isn't an official accolade, but many personally think it's the best kpop song ever. I recommend checking out an instrumental version of the song to get a feel for why that is.

    One of my favorite 2nd gen groups 😭 i miss Hara so much. I loved all the girls but Hara was my ultimate. All of their title releases were big hits. They did go through a few member changes but they were able to overcome the changes and comeback better and better each time. Whoever chose their songs was so good at finding catchy dance hits and fit the girls so well. Step was one of my favorites for a very long time so I’m glad you started with that one.

  • @junichi8369
    @junichi8369 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    These girls were part of the kpop trailblazers, moreso for the Japanese market. The only group beck in the day that could even compete if mot surpass snsd in Japan in their prime..
    The members in step with the scene with the mic stands are from left to right are.
    Kang Jiyoung - maknae
    Jung Nicole - pretty much a powerhouse do it all member, can sing, dance, rap, and is a visual
    Goo Hara - center/face of the group. Unfortunetly she took her own life after her BFF sulli took her own life as well.
    Han Suengyeon - main vocal
    Park Gyuri - leader and self proclaimed goddess (old fans know)
    Nicole and Jiyoung left the group in 2014, Heo Yeoungji was added and they became a 4 member group. However they disbanded in 2016.

    I’d love to see you explore more Kara, they were such an amazing group. I’m biased being a longtime fan of them but I’d like to give you my perspective into what made them so special, at least to me. First off they did have very nice vocals but none were totally outstanding or stable 100% of the time but imo they really retained some of the most beautiful harmonies I’d ever experienced from a gg, something about the way their voices melded was magic. They often supported one another live vocally in unique pairings that really showcased their sound. Really they were known for some of their dances but really overall individually they were never a++ dancers all of the time but again when in unison they just exploded with charisma and showmanship. If you’ll notice after seeing a few lives or even dance practices the thing about Kara’s dancing skill was they all worked in great sync and all knew the moves to the choreo but they all distinctly (imo) danced the moves in their own style. That’s what made Kara so memorable and lovable ultimately to me. They just had really funny good personalities and their struggles in the beginning and all along the path of their career were a true picture of how an idol could overcome the odds. (Han SeungYeon is the ultimate trooper) I loved and will always claim Goo Hara as my ultimate bias but I loved all the members old and new. Thank you for sharing this I hope you find interest in more of their contributions to Kpop

    Wonder Girls, Girls' Generation, and now KARA. Yes there are other girl groups but these three were the holy trinity back in the late-2000s since they all debuted almost at the exact same time.

  • @NyokouChannel
    @NyokouChannel 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    KARA was the most famous K-pop girl group in Japan because they all went on Japanese TV and spoke it fluently even though they are all ethnically Korean. Most other groups just use interpreters. It showed the public how serious they were about their career in Japan. To this day the girls prefer having solo careers in Japan because it makes them more money obviously but also Korea paid them dust in later years which was heartbreaking to see.

    2011 was such the biggest year
    SuJu, SNSD, Tara, Kara, WG, 2ne1, Miss A, Sistar, 4minute.
    I think all of them released songs that was so iconic on that year and it was very hard to vote.

    One of the things I absolutely love about your channel is that you mainly focus on reacting to second/third gen kpop groups which is so refreshing to every other reaction channel since not many people want to see old kpop now but it’s just something many of us grew up with so it’s definitely nostalgic 🥰 Thank you again!

    KARA was popular. Part of WONSOKA (Wonder Girls, SNSD, Kara) top gg from 2007.
    Also, KARA is the only rival worth mentioned for SNSD in Japan. They're HUGE in JAPAN.

    Hi, I would like to recommend a 1st gen girl group Fin. L. K. (debuted in 1998) which consist of Lee hyori (refund sister) and three other members (Ock joohyun, Lee jin and Sung yuri) They are one of the 3 big girl group in 1st gen alongside with SES and Babyvox, I got to know them through camping club where they reunited last year. Some songs I would like to recommend will be Now, Finkl (a song that is same as the group name), like the song remain (their newest song), eternal love, ruby. Don't go away and never (this two songs doesn't have mv but the live stage is really nice). Btw, they were in the same company as kara back then (DSP). Hope to see more of your reaction. Thank you.

  • @zavi0568
    @zavi0568 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm so glad that you have reacted to Kara because I think they aren't famous like other groups around the world but in Japan yes, they were so popular. Although they weren't o aren't so popular, these girls are talented, gorgeous and as a group, they have great songs. I consider myself as a Kamilia, which the name of the fandom. Their agencie was the same as Kard, DSP. Please, react to more songs, you won't regret !

    KARA is my 2nd girl group that I stan after I discovered SNSD. I knew them in a variety show called Invincible Youth where they made 7 girl group members farm and stuff.. Sunny and Yuri was in that show and that is where Sunny got the nickname "Chicken Cather".. it was my first korean variety show that i watched and I was fascinated by the fact that beautiful kpop idols are doing farm work.. you should watch it!
    SNSD- YURI, SUNNY
    KARA- HARA (R.I.P)
    4 MINUTE- HYUNA
    T-ARA- HYOMIN
    B.E.G- NARSHA
    SECRET- SUNHWA
    these groups are among the ICONIC girl group in 2nd gen kpop.
