"A few days ago, we gathered to celebrate the 14th anniversary of KARA's debut. A time that meant more as time went by. Thank you Jiyoung for preparing flowers and a cake as a surprise gift."

When one netizen commented, "How nice would it have been if Hara was there," Gyuri responded: "How about we just pretend that Hara was not able to come because it's against pandemic guidelines for more than 4 people to gather."

It's nice that they still get together, but that Gyuri comment was a big yikes.  It also feels like Youngji is a complete afterthought.

I love kara but it always saddens me that they ignore Youngji completely

I agree, feels a bit awks to me as Youngji did have a bond with hara but then again I don't think she's met nicole and jiyoung.

"Yes girls, let's make a reunion about our 14 years as a group and let's invite a person who won't understand our old stories and doesn't even know 2 of us"

Nothing against Youngji but her fans pushing her are really something, this is a happy kamilia moment and you ruin it; go to an article about her and count how much people ask about other members or why she doesn't meet Nicole and Jiyoung? It's sarcasm btw

 

Gyuri comment is so precious, thanks goddess, you girls are my everything today and forever

Everyone knows Youngji was pushed into KARA by the company and the group was against new member. You cannot push kid into group who was together for years and went together through several ups and downs. KARA will always be these 5 girls + Seunghee and Youngji as extras but honestly nothing more. Just extras... Is it sad for Youngji? Yes, it is. But KARA as 4 really shouldnt happen. They should have debuted Baby Kara as a group instead...

Youngji was my favorite member and, as much as I like her, she wouldn't fit in the situation. She didn't get to work with Nicole and Jiyoung, and the two are the ones who belonged to the prime time of OT5, who shared the joys and struggles of building KARA's legacy with Gyuri, Seungyeon and Hara. 

While Gyuri and Seungyeon may (or may not) have had some kind of affection towards Youngji, they only worked together because DSP is a shitty company. OT5, Youngji and the other DSP trainees/idols could have a better fate if DSP decisions weren't so dumb after the changes inside the company. 

Forcing them to include Youngji would be insincere. I'm kind of feeling bittersweet, sad because of Youngji but I'm glad that the other members kept their friendship.

this is so cute and so sad. kara were one of the groups that got me into kpop. i'm glad they were still able to celebrate together.
