Hi, everyone!!!! Was waiting for OH to come back just to post here. KARD is my favorite group now (sorry, TWICE). They are so good, and their song is my daily jam now. Supporting them all the way now! Hope they can be successful in Korea, like they are internationally.

 

By the way, I saw a YB comment where it said this was a project group. That's wrong, right? I think they will have 3 singles before debuting officially next year...

i love this group so much!! hope to post here often

This is just maybe...

For vol.2 (or 3) as well as the track, DSP will make a short drama for promoting kard. And DSP actor/actrees will be featuring in it.

lowkey feel guilty for thinking this way but I noticed Somin can't even look at BM when he's dancing and I find it so adorable omg

I think project means that DSP can change the group before debuting. Right now it's not permanent yet. I'm not sure, though.

You have good taste.

I really hope someone can translate the full article though.

 

I think they are still deciding if it's a 4 or 7 member group but I'm pretty sure in the article says there will be 3 projects before the official debut.

 

Only translating the part with DSP's response because there has been a lot of confusion. If anyone has DSP's official statement about K.A.R.D on their website that needs translating, link me~ 

 

“아티스트 그룹 ‘K.A.R.D’는 ì´ 3ë‹¨ê³„ì— ê±¸ì¹œ í•˜ë‚˜ì˜ í”„ë¡œì íŠ¸ë¡œ 진행ë˜ë©° 매 앨범마다 히든 멤버가 있다. 마지막 ì¹´ë“œ ‘D’는 숨겨진 멤버ë¼ëŠ” ì˜ë¯¸ì™€ 함께 ìƒëŒ€ê°€ 예측하지 못한 ë¹„ìž¥ì˜ ìŒì•…ê³¼ í¼í¬ë¨¼ìŠ¤ë¥¼ ì„  ë³´ì¼ ê²ƒì´ëž€ 중ì˜ì ì¸ ì˜ë¯¸ê°€ ë‚´í¬ë¼ 있다. 첫 ì‹œìž‘ì˜ í¬ë¬¸ì„ ê°™ì´ ì—´ 히든 멤버는 누구ì¼ì§€ 계ì†í•´ì„œ 기대해달ë¼â€ê³  전했다.

 

"Artist group, KARD, will have a total of three releases in the span of this project and every release there will be a hidden member. The last card "D" will show an unpredictable display of music and performance. -Next line is just DSP being extra with their words and asking for people to waiting with expectation; nothing else about a seven member group-"

 

 

 

 

So yes, there will be more hidden members, but there is no full seven member group after the three features. That is only a rumor. I don't even think that's possible because, if you see DSP groups, they try to make a group that is "correct" for the group concept (ie: Hara/Jiyoung's addition to Kara's cute concept). Youngji is still KARA and not a part of K.A.R.D. Chaewon, Oh Jong Hyuk, Kasper, A-JAX members or any possible hidden card candidates will not be KARD members.  

 

You can think of hidden card = feature/collab-ish, but really a way to promote K.A.R.D

 

So here is my conclusion as of now:

 

1. KARD is a not a project group, but a four member official group).
2. KARD's hidden member card releases before debut is the project. The project before their "full debut".
3. DSP isn't incapable of putting them on music shows. Look at April, they get on music shows just fine. But getting them on stage does require investment such as the stage, outfits, back up dancers, and etc so they're not "fully debuting" KARD with no public or fan support.
4. DSP's hidden card isn't really to help them musically or performance-wise(that's just fancy talk on DSP's end), but it's to help them promote the group using their artist's names. On Melon, Youngji's name is in the song title "Oh Nana (Hidden. Heo Youngji)" Pretty obvious they're using her name.
5. You can see that DSP isn't really investing in KARD's debut atm. Their small debut stage. Their MV (no built sets like Kara's Step which cost around 94k. Only aesthetic bg, light work, and editing magic). A-JAX debuted with an expensive MV too. Again, not a "full" debut. A co-ed group is still a risk. Even big companies don't make co-ed groups, but projects with established artists. I don't blame them for playing it safe.

Yes, constant participants will be four. Initially there was a speech about it, and the figure seven has arisen obviously in a consequence of the wrong interpretation, after the first broadcast of group. 

Yes, DSP aren't going to risk and go for broke with the mixed group. They investigate reaction of public. 

Yes, participation of YoungJi and other stars of DSP, draws necessary attention to group. It promotes creation the fan base for K.A.R.D.

Thanks. Do you know how they are doing in the charts in Korea? How are their sales? I know that they got positive responses from k-netz, but this doesn't transtale into money.

 

If they don't sell well, I fear the groups will disband.

[Eugene Carthaginian]

On December 22 K.A.R.D will appear on radio "Sound K", and on December 29 on "Arirang's Pops in Seoul". Also today the group acted for JUSE TV.

On January 6 K.A.R.D will appear in the Kwave U application.

 

 

Today K.A.R.D shot video for JUSE TV
