What Happened to KARA - The Most Inspirational Kpop Group

Hope you all enjoyed this video dedicated to KARA's legacy and Hara's honor. Thank you. What was your first KARA song?

[@NinisVIP]

Thank you so much for this video! Though 'Honey' was the first KARA song I have ever listened, 'Mister' and 'Wanna' were the songs who made me a fan of this group until the end. RIP Goo Hara. I wish all the best to the other members.

Yes. Mostly because they weren't around to witness how great those k-pop group of 1st and 2nd generations were. I was active way back in 2nd gen, and every gen has great artists. 1st Gen was about spreading the idol culture in Korean which is too conservative about their music back then. 2nd Gen was about spreading the Hallyu wave throughout Asia, and other continents. The current 3rd Gen continued it, spreading it worldwide.

BoA build the door then DSBK and Big Bang build the bridge and then they hand the key over to groups like 2pm, Kara, SNSD, 4Minute, Wonder Girls to make their path and finally passed the torch down to Twice, Gfriend and BTS.

[@mizmoz361]

I am recently discovering how smart Gyuri was to have perfect reaction in every comments she made on variety shows to build up narcissistic goddess image. Too bad that her smartness didn’t show well in Japan because of language/ cultural barrier. She is definitely smart, talented, and has an extremely gorgeous look.

[@SetMeFree9]

People talk about negative comments again and again and forget about the real problem here. It’s depression. Hara had depression like many other idols and it’s not a joke. The problem with her ex boyfriend made it worse. People shouldn’t criticize them too much. Idols from the 2nd generation like Mir from Mblaq, 4minute members, Youngjae from Got7 (examples), Jennie from BP, other SM idols (especially NCT members like Doyoung), the rest of the Fx (especially Krystal) and Kara members (especially Young Ji), Momoland members (especially Nancy) and also idols from the new generation, BTS members (especially Yoongi, they’re too popular and have too much pressure on them) should get professional help and also help from their loved ones. It’s getting worse and and worse with Kpop.

[@zasherakhan6957]

Feel Special these young people are not allowed to have personal lives. I understand when you’re 14, 16 or so you need to protect them, but it goes beyond that. They are over worked and lead pretty vapid lives cuz at the very end these men that run these agencies don’t give a shit. It’s about making money. Both boys and girls are taken advantage of. Then add the nasty so call fans that harass them. Depression! Depression is part of the human condition. Knowing how to deal with it is the challenge and these performers get no help. When it comes to the music all their songs sound alike. Change of costume and choreography and viola, a new song. Except for a few groups most Korean Kpop groups have a shell life of 10 years at the most.

The story omits that a major factor in Kara's success in Japan was due to Hara. She was known to have a strong resemblance to J-pop queen Namie Amuro. Even her solo career in Japan seemed pretty directed at Namie fans.

[@superbluerock8327]

I wouldn't say "major factor". Because KARA was already buzzing in Japan before Hara made headlines resembling Namie Amuro. After Mister was officially released in Japan, Hara was talked about. But it didn't last more than a year. KARA major factor in their success was their music, message in their music and their ORIGINAL style. Everyone was obsessed with their styles, fashion and visuals. And their voice just so happened to fit the vibe perfectly with every Japanese hit song.

[@hallyuniverse]

3:08 I think this a topic of confusion for a lot of people, Hara and Seungyeon were definitely the most popular KARA members in Korea based on looks. The reason you see so much reference of Gyuri being the most beautiful KARA member is because on variety shows, Gyuri had this satirical comedic character where she would act very conceited and pretend to be the most beautiful idol to ever exist. Back in the day a lot of younger women in KPop/KDramas would be very negative and self-critical when talking about themselves, so Gyuri would humorously hype herself up and pretend to be a "goddess" which was her nickname. She actually got a lot of hate online because people were mad she was saying she was beautiful back in the day. I think she definitely changed the dynamic and allowed people to be more self-confident by being over the top, she was super popular on variety shows. Confidence and comedy trailblazer for idols.

But many years have passed and even though I am still extremely sad about what happened to Hara, I want to remember her for the amazing impact she not only left on my life, but others as well. I remember her for the joy she brought to so many people, and to her members. I remember her life as one to be celebrated. Rest in Peace Goo Hara. We all love and miss you. You will never be forgotten.

After watching this video I'm realised is aldy 10 yr I'm become kpop fan. At first I'm always sceptical when one members leave their group but after what happen to Jonghyun n Hara n Sulli I'm just hope every kpop idol be happy. They deserve it, well we deserve it. Rip Hara

I am here after KARA comeback in 2022 MAMA. Thank you for this. This was a heartfelt video. You are a good youtuber.

[@mewmew6863]

What I love about their gg era is every girl group has their own distinct music. Like, if you want a *girly tune* , listen to *Girls Generation* . If you want *hip hop* , listen to *2ne1* . If you want *fun dance music* , you have *T-Ara* . Then of course, you have the *disco queens* , *KARA* . And also, the 3rd gen, *Rainbow, After School, so on* ! And the best part of their era, you can be a fan of all!! Now, most girl groups want to be like BP or Twice or RV 🤷‍♀️

KARA IS COMING BACK FOR US KAMILIAS!!! 😭. #15THANNIVERSARYALBUM. COMEBACK DATE IS NOVEMBER 29.

[@sakurachristineito6428]

I remember literally almost ten years ago, I was walking down in Shibuya & saw a poster of stunning girls on Tower Records. I Immediately bought the CD (without even listening to the sample sound) & became immediately hooked to Kara. That day was the start of my Kara fandom journey. Obsession with the group was an understatement to say the least. I guess by reading this comment, I don't even need to explain how I felt when I first heard about the news of Hara's passing. God bless Kara, God bless Hara & her family. Kara will always be in my heart.

[@shwetapatel07]

Those golden days when KARA was out with Bop after bop with every comeback! Miss those times 😭

[@SessionSakic]

First RIP Hara, you will always be loved, Second I am a Kamilia and still support everything these ladies do.

[@wutang4eva213]

Goo Hara's beauty, and all her hard work in variety shows got me into Kara. RIP. Thanks for dedicating this video for her.

[@nellyyuki4695]

Kara will always be my ultimate favourite kpop girl group.. new generation should know how impactful and influential kara was and their legacy that left behind respectively.. #kamiliaforever #nicolewasandstillismyultimatebias #riphara

[@juvyjanededios97]

[@jp-hv4tz]

Gee & Honey was just at 2 points difference just so close 😂😂😂 The battle was so close 😍😍😍

[@paulightofficial2475]

KARA QUEENS ARE BACK!!!

[@bwest6275]

I felt that Kara was the crown jewel of kpop back in the day, and still think no other group has been as impactful as them. Whenever they released a song, it was magical. This trip down memory lane brings a tear to my eye, both because of reminiscing over those good times of excitement when Kara released a new single, and also now because of Hara. This is a great tribute to all of them, thank you.

[@cui69au]

They just did a 15yr annivery come back!!! they have not lost a beat! still queens as they are!! 6th plate set and the 6th mic.... tearing up!!! Kamilia for life!!

[@pastelscales]

I cried at the last part about Hara. It's just so unbelievable. She was my fave in KARA...

[@Alastar]

AND NOW. THEY HAVE A COMEBACK SONG in 2022 :'D viva kamilia

[@DurrtyGato]

KARA stole my heart in 2009!😢 KARA still the best girl group to pass through kpop history imo. Kamilia know what's up. To the ones who aren't familiar with KARA, multiple this video by x10 then you might get the impact KARA has made in kpop.

[@ruKUSS_.117]

I think these women are the strongest 2nd gen to comeback after all the history they’ve had. I wish them many more comebacks and successes before they retire on their own terms!

[@sur_un_nuage]

kara is making a comeback tomorrow i hope everyone checks it out

[@feur2325]

I'm back here because they are back with 5 members!!

[@queenriko6181]

I forget what song I listened to first, but it was most likely in Japanese since that’s what I started listening to around 2010-2011. Been fans ever since. RIP Goo Hara 😭

[@Desthy-up6oy]

I am a ex-kpop fans. Now i'm 34. Kara was my favorite girl group then. And hara was my fav member in kara. Then and now, kara always be in my heart

[@lmangan2012]

Thank you Nathan

[@mulerwo1306]

Nathan: "I think companies should listen more to the fans these days" Aghases: tell that to jyp

[@krakoosh1]

What happened? They’ve made a smashing comeback in November 2022! Mister was my introduction to KARA.

[@OrbitOnceAround]

I started to like Kara after seeing Hara on IY, but later fell in love with their music and their charm

[@nouraahmad7376]

This video made me live in the past for a while to the point where i forgot that hara was no longer with us, seeing her smiles ,presence and youthfulness in this video was so immersing. The comment you made at the end of the video was a harsh harsh wakeup call ; a stab to the heart , and I'm crying now . Rest in peace sweet hara , you did your best . On a happier note, this video was great, thank you :) :) I became a kpop fan because of kara when i was 10 and now I'm 20, and watching this brought back all the happy memories

[@KokoroBeach]

Was with Kara since Break It. Miss them so dearly. Was active on Karaholic. Hammy was my bias. The news about them breaking up in 2016 was sad enough, but Hara's passing was devastating... RIP Koala...

[@kerronwalker1589]

Wow shit karaholic. I remember when the news came out they split and I think I cried a little bit. Like Kara was part of a generation that opened up an era of kpop to the world. Break it is actually such a good fucking song. WonSoKa days where the shit honestly the interaction and the friendly vibes of all those groups coming up to claim there hold on the kpop industry. I deeply miss them as a group of 4 or 5 or 4. I really don't think people know how amazing Kara was, and still is. Damaged lady will always go down as the song that should have gotten bigger.

[@AYSEM_FLETCHER_Dear-Army7_TR]

rest in peace Goo Hara, you are missed... weldone Kara
