Korean girl group KARA will release their fifth Japanese single next month, according to their official Japanese website on Monday.

KARA's website revealed that KARA's next Japanese single "Winter Magic" will hit stores on October 19.

"Winter Magic" will be produced in three editions with two being limited editions -- limited edition A will include the album and DVD with the music video, limited edition B will be composed of the album and a 28-page photo booklet -- while the regular edition will feature the album plus a bonus track.

Their last Japanese single "GO GO Summer!" sold over 100,000 copies after going on sale in late June and placed within the top three slots of the Oricon's music chart.

KARA, composed of members Gu Hara, Han Seung-yeon, Park Gyu-lee, Kang Ji-young and Nicole, is currently one of the most successful Korean girl groups to break into the Japanese market.

Locally, the girls have been busy promoting their latest dance tune "STEP," from their third full-length album of the same name, and have taken wins on televised music programs.
