All about KARA
ハラ（ＫＡＲＡ）づくし

KARA's Hara makes her first appearance in athletics at the Idol Athletics Championships, a "strong contender"

Korean girl group KARA's Hara will be competing in athletics for the first time in the MBC Lunar New Year special variety show "2015 Idol Star Athletics, Basketball, Futsal, and Archery Championships" (hereafter "Idol Athletics Championships"), and is set to attract attention.

Hara (Koo Hara/KARA), who was famous as a beautiful athlete in her school days, chose athletics as the event she was most confident about in this tournament in a pre-interview, making the female idols nervous.

However, it will not be easy for Hara to make her first attempt, as Ga Eun of Dal★Sabet, who won a total of four gold medals in women's athletics events, Jisoo of TAHITI, and Soojin of WASSUP, newly emerged athletics idols (athletics + idols), are expected to be strong contenders.

Hara is especially confident in her athletics, so attention is focused on whether she will be able to beat the three strong contenders and take home the championship.

The results of Hara's first athletics competition can be seen on the 19th and 20th at 5:55pm on the "Idol Athletics Championships".

★ (Everyone Under the Sky)

Hara, who was thought to be no good at singing, has prepared a solo stage.

It is said that you can tell a singer's strength by listening to a ballad.

Hara begins to sing a ballad with all her heart, but a loud voice calls out to her.

A man's rough voice and a woman's high-pitched voice come out one after another.

Unable to maintain her emotional involvement in the song, Hara stops singing.

She addresses the audience from the stage.

"I'm singing now." Small laughs can be heard here and there. "There's no way I can sing when they call my name."

A burst of laughter breaks out.

"Shhh."

Hara holds up her index finger. There is a smile on her face. She is not angry.

Hara waits for the audience to calm down before singing again.

She sings the ballad to the end.

Hara is no longer a bad singer.

This was on stage in November 2014.

(I think she was angry, but her personality, or rather, her interaction with the audience, was heartwarming.

After watching this video, I want to go see Hara myself.)

★Hara running.

Look at that speed. If only Hara hadn't fallen, she would have been number one in the sprint by a long way (though she did fall at the end lol).

This difference in the starting dash.

And this at about 20 meters.

Unfortunately, she fell just before the finish line lol. But I thought she had great qualities as a sprinter.

Ahhh, she fell.

Ever since I saw this video, I've always believed that Hara was the fastest female idol in track and field, but after reading the entertainment article above, it seems that the map of track and field heroines is also changing quite a bit.

This time, in the MBC Lunar New Year special variety show "2015 Idol Star Track and Field, Basketball, Football", Hara will be competing in the "Idol Athletics Championship" at the "Monkey Archery Championships".

However, Hara is not a favorite to win, but is treated as a dark horse.

The others who seem to be the favorites are Gaun from "Dal★Sabet", Jisoo from "TAHITI", and Soojin from "WASSUP".

I don't know what kind of girls these three are. I've listened to Dal★Sabet's music a few times, but I still don't know who the members are.

I immediately started looking up the group and its members.

⑦Woo-ju → Born August 12, 1996 → 162cm

Dal★Sabet debuted in 2011. "TAHITI" in 2012.

"WASSUP" in 2013.

Dal★Sabet gives the impression of the same style that T-ARA was trying. I wonder how popular they are.

I don't know how they are perceived by K-pop fans.

However, I saw on the internet that they are in Japan, the land of K-pop, where passionate fans who want to see them live have started to take off.

In 2012, the sexy style of girl groups became mainstream.

"TAHITI" seems to have appeared in response to this trend.

It seems that AOA and Girl's Day are leading the way, but will "TAHITI" fight back? Hopes are high for Jisoo's performance, but what will the results be in the track and field competition planned for the Lunar New Year?

"WASSUP" is a group of serious rap songs. Boy groups like Block B are attracting attention and going on European tours, but what about girl groups?

They seem to be in the exploration stage for now, but these girls have the air of someone who could make a big splash if they make a breakthrough.

The key will be whether they can perfect a rap style with the destructive power of 2NE1's CL.

Finally, I'm very curious to see how Hara does in the track and field meet.

If they win, it will undoubtedly send KARA's popularity (and other groups will also attract attention from the living rooms and the Internet) soaring once again.

I really hope Hara wins.

Good luck, Hara!
