Korean girl group KARA will drop a compilation album of the girls’ first-ever solo tunes in Japan next month.
The group’s Japanese official website showed Monday that the compilation album, dubbed “KARA COLLECTION,” will be released on September 5 in Japan.
The new record will be available in three versions; one with only the tunes, limited edition will feature aforementioned songs plus the music video to each songs and the third version will include all the songs as well as making-of-the video shots and a photo album, the website showed.
However, a rep from DSP Entertainment told the magazine Monday that the girls will not promote the album since the songs have already been revealed more than half a year ago, and the local release of the compilation album has yet to be settled.
Composed of Gu Hara, Han Seung-yeon, Park Gyu-lee, Kang Ji-young and Nicole, KARA is currently one of the most successful Korean girl groups that has broken into the Japanese music market.
