Ever since the group debuted, KARA’s Seungyeon is known amongst fans as the “protector” of the group. Because of the controversial contract termination issue, fans are fearing that the group may split up, and so they’re asking Seungyeon to look after KARA once more.

Many are posting pleas to Seungyeon on various KARA boards, requesting that she bring the group together.

Fans have posted, “There is no way Han Seungyeon will leave the team,” “Seungyeon will look after KARA, just as she’s done all these years,” and “I believe in Seungyeon.”

Reportedly, Seungyeon responded with a comforting message: “KARA must be 5.”


Landmark表示 宣佈解約的KARA三人仍希望以五人一起活動



向經紀公司通知解約的KARA組合3名成員(韓勝妍、姜智英、鄭妮可),21日通過法律代理人路標(Landmark)表示,仍希望以5人組合對外活動。

Landmark表示,20日見過KARA成員的父母,他們都希望KARA以5人組合的形式繼續對外活動。雖然還存在一些與經紀公司的法律問題,但維持5人組合是首要的原則。Landmark接著說,從成員父母的立場來說,最重要的是KARA組合的持續活動。經紀公司的最主要任務應該是對演藝活動提供全方位的幫助,而不是居高臨下,與藝人形成主從關係,這也正是這次風波的核心問題。希望能有一個可信任的經紀專家幫助KARA。KARA的經紀公司DSP傳媒的代表李浩淵去年臥病之後,由其夫人接掌職務。上述發言可以說是對非專業人員經營的一種不滿。

Landmark說:“希望有一個能讓KARA盡情發揮才藝的專家經紀人。我們認為,經紀的最基本原則是互信和專業。另外,KARA成員希望的是改善與經紀公司的主從關係,建立一個以互信為基礎的合作關係。”Landmark還說,DSP傳媒應立即停止分裂成員的行動。這次風波的本質是KARA的5名成員與警紀公司之間的問題,而成員之間沒有摩擦。

The controversial contract termination saga continues, as the parents of three KARA members (Nicole, Han Seungyeon, and Kang Ji Young) revealed their official stance through their legal representative, Landmark.

On January 21st, Landmark stated, “The parents of the three KARA members came to our law firm and revealed that they would like KARA to remain as five.”

“The most important emphasis from the members’ perspective is KARA’s activities. KARA’s parents want a professional management company they can trust, and the members want a relationship with an agency that is not hierarchal, but one that works around trust and integrity.”


The representative continued, “The current situation is a problem between the members and the agency, there are definitely no problems between the members themselves.”

Landmark also sent a message to DSP Media stating, “Stop trying to divide the members.”

The following is Landmark’s official press release:
“We want “KARA as five members”
On the evening of January 20th, the parents of the members who sent a termination notice of their exclusive contracts with DSP Media on January 19th (Jung Nicole, Kang Ji Young, Han Seung Yeon) met with our legal representative and agreed on the following stance.

1. Both the members of KARA and their parents would like “KARA as 5 members”.
The KARA members genuinely desire for KARA to stay as five members and continue with their activities as a five-membered group. There may be legal problems regarding their relationship with their agency, however, the members believe that their fundamental priority is to continue as five and promote as one team.

2. Both the members of KARA and their parents believe that “KARA’s current activities are the most important priority; the problem with their company is secondary.”
From the members’ perspective, the most important matter is “KARA’s activities”. To them, this is their primary priority, and the management company’s key role is to support their artists’ activities. The artists are not the company’s subordinate. This is the core issue.

3. Both the members of KARA and their parents “desire a management professional who they can trust.”
KARA has stated that they “would like a professional celebrity management company that can be the support of all of KARA’s talents and capabilities.” They believe that ‘trust’ and ‘expertise’ should be the tenets of any celebrity management company. In addition, the members do not want a vertical hierarchal relationship with their agency, but a horizontal cooperation based on trust and faith.

We have already pointed out many times that the current agency lacks both expertise and trust.

4. Both the members of KARA and their parents want “DSP Media to stop trying to divide the members immediately.”
KARA states, “The current situation is a problem between the members and the agency, there is definitely no problem between the members themselves. There is no discord between the members at all, but the company keeps intervening by calling the members personally and deliberately trying to divide the members. We truly want them to show integrity in their acts for the sake of the members.”

Lastly, KARA stated, “DSP Media’s “second official statement” on January 20th is meaningless. We have more evidence than they think.”


KARA's Hara and Gyuri: “Our team cannot break up.”我們不能解散

決定留在DSP傳媒的朴奎利和具荷拉正在和其他成員們接觸,希望能說服她們回到DSP,並表示“組合絕對不能解散”。

一位相關負責人表示:“具荷拉和朴奎利都在聯繫其他成員,告之她們組合不能解散,如果解散所有人都會失敗。據我所知,她們強調了這種危機感,正在勸說其他成員。”一位經紀公司內相關人士表示:“如果有一名成員有留下的意向,那麼其他兩名成員也很可能重返公司。她們正在積極地說服中。”

另一名經紀公司相關負責人也表示:“成員們正在解釋中間的誤會,現在事情存在變數,但很可能會妥善解決。”另一方面,無論是粉絲還是KARA周圍的朋友、親人,都表達了KARA不能解散的意願。

It seems that KARA is still bent on staying together, as it’s being reported that Hara and Gyuri are attempting to convince the other members to return to DSP Media. The two have apparently expressed, “Our team cannot break up.”

A representative stated, “Hara and Gyuri both contacted the other members and told them that the team could/should not break up. [If we do], we’ll all fail together. I believe they’re trying to convince the other members by stressing the importance of staying as a group.”

A staff member of DSP stated, “If one member moves agencies, it’s highly likely that the others will reset contracts as well. They’re continuing to explain the misunderstandings.”

繼具荷拉取消了解除合同要求之後,韓勝妍追加停止訴訟的可能性也非常高


20日,DSP方面相關負責人表示:“3名成員中可能有一人會重新回來,因此我們不會放棄希望。”他還表示:“昨晚我們計畫和具荷拉討論之後就與另外一名成員見面,但是突然失去了聯繫。幸運的是我們再次進行了會面,那名成員就是韓勝妍。”

該負責人還說道:“昨天,具荷拉和韓勝妍還不知道她們已經提交了解除合同通報,所以瞭解後不知所措。此前成員們談論過這件事,但是我們認為她們不知道這麼快就轉變成了法律問題。”另外,韓勝妍的父親在採訪中也表示不願意KARA解散。他透露韓勝妍19日哭著打來電話說和想過的情況不同,沒想到事情發展到了這樣的地步。

同時勝妍的父親還表示了對粉絲的擔心,說道:“沒有歌迷歌手怎麼可能存在?成員們最重視的是粉絲,所以這是最讓人心痛的地方。”對於解決問題最好的方法,他說:“人們難道不知道什麼是最好的方法嗎?那就是5個人聚在一起。”並表示:“組合分裂是不合適的。不管怎樣,我認為她們仍然會在一起。”也暗示了韓勝妍退出合同訴訟的可能性。

Following Goo Hara, who previously canceled her contract termination, it seems that the possibility of Han Seungyeon reversing her decision is high.

A representative of DSP Media spoke with TV Report on January 20th and stated, “There’s a possibility of one of the three members that filed for contract terminations returning, so we are trying not to let go of the hope. Yesterday, we were planning to meet with another member right after Goo Hara to discuss with, but we weren’t able to reach contact so we couldn’t. Fortunately, we will be meeting again, and that member is Han Seungyeon.”

He continued, “Yesterday, Goo Hara and Han Seungyeon did not even know that they even filed for contract terminations and were extremely shocked with the news. The members may have discussed the issue for a while, but we don’t think they knew that it would be turned into a legal matter so quickly.”



KARA合約糾紛 演藝活動全喊卡
2011/1/21
據南韓媒體報導,經紀公司宣布將暫時中止KARA一切演藝活動;選擇離開的KARA成員韓勝妍、鄭妮可、姜智英3人,則透過法律委託人發表和東家解除合約,還一一列出控訴經紀公司的罪狀。

韓國女子組合KARA受韓勝妍等3名成員與DSP公司之間的合約糾紛影響,DSP相關人員昨天上午宣布,決定暫時中止KARA的一切活動。KARA成員各自演藝活動,也受到這次事件影響,隊長朴奎利缺席由她主持的某電臺節目,正在出演SBS「英雄豪傑」的具荷拉,或許也將暫時退出該節目拍攝。

原本與韓勝妍、鄭妮可、姜智英一起狀告經紀公司的具荷拉,則突然改變主意,表示將繼續留在經紀公司。在具荷拉重返回經紀公司後,KARA分裂為了選擇留在經紀公司的2人和離開的3人,與東方神起的情況類似。

KARA’s Goo Hara celebrated her 21st birthday through a photoshoot with “Vogue Girl“!
Hara’s photoshoot aimed to reinvent the classic images of ’60s French actresses into a modern 2011 version. Hara took on the role of the innocent and natural Jane Birkin, as well as the mature sexiness of Brigitte Bardot for her “Vogue Girl” photoshoot.
Hara’s makeup was kept to a minimum in order to naturally express her clear translucent skin. Light foundation was added to her look, while the harsher tones for eye makeup and blush were excluded.

Due to the contract terminations filed by KARA’s Seungyeon, Nicole, and Jiyoung, DSP Media will be halting all of their scheduled appearances.

Seungyeon, Nicole, and Jiyoung’s lawyers, Landmark, reported on January 19th that DSP Media will no longer be managing the three girls, and thus suspended their KARA schedules.

KARA will not be making an appearance at the “Seoul Music Awards“, scheduled for January 20th. Leader Gyuri will also be temporarily halting her appearances on her radio program with Super Junior’s Shindong.

Representatives of DSP Media stated,”Gyuri was put in a state of shock after receiving notice of the contract terminations, and expressed that she could not take part in the live recording for her radio show on the morning of the 20th.”

Their Japanese drama, “URAKARA,” will continue to be aired as scheduled. Representatives of Nihon TV spoke with Star News on the 20th and stated, “We are planning to air the episodes of ‘URAKARA’ according to schedule. Rumors of KARA’s disbandment are worrying their Japanese fans. Because their drama completed all the necessary filming, it will air without any problems.”

南韓演藝製作者協會今天(19日)對Kara四名成員起訴DSP公司一事表態,稱Kara與DSP公司的矛盾事關韓流在國外的整體形象,他們不會坐視不理。

南韓演藝製作者協會一名工作人員19日下午接受電話採訪時表示,接連發生的東方神起、韓庚、Kara等藝人起訴經紀公司的事件,使南韓娛樂圈從外界看來充斥著剝削和不公,嚴重影響到了南韓流在國外的整體形象,為了避免事態進一步惡化,南韓演藝製作者協會將積極介入這次事件。

這名工作人員表示,Kara與經紀公司的矛盾已經不僅僅是歌手和公司之間的矛盾,稍微不注意就有可能對韓流造成致命打擊,因此他們將徹底調查事實真相,查清Kara四名成員和DSP公司究竟誰要為這次事件負責。
