A full hq radio-rip has been out for over a day now~!



I really like it. It's pretty funky.

Want to watch the full PV? Catch it here before it disappears. Or I guess you could wait for better quality?

[Shoujo Q]

Kara released their Jumping single in Korea under a Mini-album with 5 songs.



It was released the same day as the Japanese one.



Tracklist is



1. Love Is

2. Jumping

3. Burn

4. Binks

5. With

6. Jumping (Inst)



All these songs are going to end up on Kara's 1st Japanese album (But int Japanese, I think...), Girl's Talk which is being released on the 24th.



Watch the PV, it's basically the same as the Japanese one though.

Was it just me, or did the Korean version seem even more Hara-centric, which is kind of strange, because I thought she was just (much) more popular in Japan (cuz she looks like a younger you know who), or is it the same way in Korea?

You know who, but I don't know who? Who does she look like? D:

Namie Amuro, there were a bunch of articles about her looking like her when they first got over there.

Ooo! I didn't really notice it, but I DO think that one girl (I'd say she's one of the top members because she's always in the PVs) in AKB48 looks more like Namie Amuro, more so back when she first started out. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':nosebleed:' />

Sorry, I thought everyone knew she looked like Amuro, which is why she usually scores #1 for KPOP girl group members in most polls. BTW, yeah, I watched both PVs back to back, and there's more Nicole and and Gyuri in the Japanese version. In the Korean vers, they cut their screen time and increased Hara's. And also, is Jiyoung like BK's Kumai, i.e. "freakishly tall"?! It seems like it (that or the other members are just short).
