Kara member Kang Ji-young celebrated the 17th anniversary of her debut. Unfortunately, while keeping the late Goo Hara, who has passed away, in mind, she also showed her continued affection.
On the 24th, Kang Ji-young posted several photos on her social media account story, along with the messages, "Congratulations on the 17th anniversary!" and "Congratulations!!!!!"
The photos featured the members of Kara. This scene is from the music video for the song "Rock U," which was the first release after Goo Hara and Kang Ji-young joined Kara, showcasing the youthful appearance of the members.
Then, Kang Ji-young shared a photo of her with Goo Hara on stage, leaving a message saying, "Congratulations!!!!!" It brought a poignant touch as she remembered Goo Hara, who passed away in 2019, up until her debut.
Goo Hara and Kang Ji-young debuted in 2008 through Kara's first mini album. With the addition of the two, Kara enjoyed its heyday, producing hit songs like "Rock U," "Pretty Girl," "Mister," "Lupin," "Honey," and "STEP," leading the Hallyu wave.
Goo Hara passed away on November 24, 2019, and afterward, the reunited Kara touched hearts by dedicating their music show number one trophy and newly released album to her.
Meanwhile, Kara, which includes Kang Ji-young, will hold "THE 6th JAPAN TOUR 2025 in KOBE" on August 2 and 3 at the GLION ARENA KOBE.
