KARA主演ドラマ「URAKARA」がDVDに！テレビでは見られない裏側も

テレビやCMですっかりお茶の間の人気者となったK-POPガールズグループのKARA。しかし、最近は韓国の事務所との確執や、グループ分裂騒動など暗いニュースが多く、ファンも不安を募らせていたことだろう。

しかし、そんなファンたちの心を一気に明るくしてくれるニュースが飛び込んだ。現在、テレビ東京系列で放送中のKARA主演ドラマ「URAKARA」が特典付きのDVDになって発売されることが決定したのだ。

メンバーそれぞれが一人前の惚れさせ屋を目指して、不慣れな恋愛ゲームに挑戦する恋愛ミッション遂行ドラマ「URAKARA」。韓国語と日本語を使い分け、あの手、この手を使ってターゲットを落とすメンバーの姿は、ステージとはまた違った魅力でとてもキュート。

現在、リリースが決定しているのは第1話から3話までを収録した「URAKARA vol.1」(4月6日発売)と、第4・5話＋特別編を収録した「URAKARA vol.2」(4月27日発売)。両作ともテレビ未公開の特典映像が収録される予定だが、vol.1ではドラマでは見られないメンバーの素顔に迫った貴重なメイキング映像や、KARAが共同合宿を行っているという設定の弘大(ホンデ)地区をはじめとするソウルでのロケ地紹介など、まさに「URAKARA」の裏側が楽しめる作りに。vol.2はもっとレアな映像が収録されるそうだが、それは見てからのお楽しみだ。

大好きなKARAの暗いニュースに、カラ元気すら出なかったファンの皆さん。彼女たちのドラマを見て、本当の元気を分けてもらってはいかがだろうか。【トライワークス】

ShowTimeでは、韓国の人気アイドルグループKARAが登場するリアルドキュメンタリー番組「KARAFULL」を配信中だ。

　分裂騒動で話題を集めるKARA。同番組は、2009年から2010年に韓国Mnetで放送された、KARAの貴重な映像が楽しめる番組だ。彼女たちが“パン屋さんをオープンすること”“大学生活を送ること”というふたつのミッションに挑戦する姿を追う。

　“パン屋オープン”のミッションでは、彼女たちが世界でたったひとつのパン屋「KARAベーカリー」のクリスマス開店に挑む。資金調達からスタッフの起用、インテリア、オリジナルケーキの制作までをメンバーだけでプロデュースすることに。厳しい現実と予想外のトラブル続きで難航するが、彼女たちは持ち前の明るさとチームワーク、そしてたっぷりの愛嬌でミッションを進めていく。

　「ニコルのキャンパスライフ」では、アメリカ育ちのメンバー、ニコルが韓国の大学生活に挑戦する。一学期の講義を受けてテストをパスし、卒業するのがミッション。韓国の常識を知らないニコルは入試から不合格の連発だったが、その熱意が獣医学科に届く。しかし、そこでは、難解な授業に加え、牛の去勢などの驚きの実習が待っていた。同級生たちの助けも得て、ニコルの愉快なキャンパスライフが始まる。視聴金は各話367円／7日間。

Kang Ji "in Japanese (Japan) column was able to work hard thanks to the fans who cheer" as "too Kara (Japan) to support the fans," he said.

Internet users in contact with it from there and use a different syntax Hazama Naka immature Chinese letters, " about a beautiful mind, you can feel the sincerity with beautiful character "." cute voice support in a letter about the " other reaction showed.

Roughly:
To everybody in Japan and everybody hurt by the disaster,
you have our sympathy regret from the bottom of our heart.
We are strongly tied to Japan, so what happened there hurts deep in our chest
We regret that we can't express our sympathy in person, but we had to give up (on) "bounichi"[I don't know this word]
We're supporting you by trying to be your power, even if just a little.

Of course, they said it way more politely, and far less clumsily than this. But I think you can get the basic idea.

I miss having my girls all together and happy for the world to see, but I'm going to be waiting for them when they come back and blow everyone's minds

Happy 4th Anniversary, Gyuri, Seungyeon, Nicole, Sunghee, Hara and Jiyoung - do stick around for your 5th

nyah~ there's hara thread in here

~
oh what are we talking about? kara's lawsuit? i don't know much about that...
i only know that i love hara lol,, it's out of topic,, but anyway,, i think she's the mood maker in the group,, although a lot of ppl would disagree haha

ratata · « **Reply #1836 on:** April 08, 2011, 06:32:37 AM »

wee~ kara thread~
did anyone read an article about kara being the worst idol group in singing? what do you think about that?
heck,, these girls can sing,, that's for sure~ so i don't think i agree to that article =.=

Deft-Monkey · « **Reply #1837 on:** April 11, 2011, 07:37:07 AM »

^ There's no way that I could agree with that. I've got to say that KARA doesn't have many songs that really show of their true vocal talents, but they can definitely sing. Before Sunghee left, they were way up there and even now, I don't think people realise that Jiyoung has a great voice. Being honest, I think that KARA have better vocals than 4minute, but then again, 4minute has 2 or 3 rappers, so it's not like it can be helped.

Anyway, yeah, the worst idol group in singing? Ridiculous.

I miss seeing new KARA pics every other day, especially of Nicole

MochaNutz · « **Reply #1838 on:** April 12, 2011, 05:23:55 AM »

i haven't really listened to a lot of kpop, but i disagree with that as well. They're decent singers and entertainers.

The only thing is now, they don't have is a real lead singer. I'll have to say that none of their voices has the lead ability. Maybe Seungyeon who has great vocals, but there are times when i can't distinguish her from a lower register Nicole.

You know when Gyuri is singing, but its not the belting powerful type.

Nicole can potentially have a good high voice, but she's really pitchy when singing live, which makes me believe they use a lot of editing/melodyne or whatever on post production studio work.

Jiyoung has a voice similar to Emi Hinouchi. Its great, soft but with a tinge of raspyness. Not a lead though.

And Goo Hara...well... she looks like Namie =P j/k
She has the weakest voice of the bunch, but it could be worse. She's starting to get more parts, and is getting more consistent, so thats good. But like in Lupin, her lines were "its mine". In Honey, she had 2 lines.

Since Sunghee left, they lost that power voice. But whoever their producer is, they have arranged their strengths and covered their weaknesses very nicely. Jiyoung and Hara usually take the first line or 2 of the verse, then have Gyuri and Seungyeon switch the 'lead' to finish off strong. Then when things get settled in, they put in Nicole here and there to keep the energy going and have the track dynamic and refreshing. Its a great formula and compliment each other very well.

Whats also good is they each have different voices and you can tell who is who (besides the previous fault i said). Another good group is Brown Eyed Girls. SNSD, they all sound the same to me... soulless! =P j/k i have to listen more to them (sorry snsd fans =P)

For the current Kara, i'd rank Seungyeon the best, then a tie with Gyuri and Nicole (on her best day), then Jiyoung, then Hara.

md007 · « **Reply #1839 on:** April 13, 2011, 07:30:56 PM »

Even that for me is Gyuri and the other girls, have to agree with you. I like Gyuri's voice the most, but I really think that SY has a "more balanced" voice.

I think the "worst voice" thing is because their songs have less vocals and more rhythms, beats and sounds, and NOT actually vocal quality. But hey, which KPop doesn use that formula?
