All Proceeds From Kara's New Single Will Be Donated To Japan's Relief Fund

Kara has decided to donate all the money from the sales of their new single "Jet Coaster Love" to the relief effort in Japan.

With relief efforts underway in Japan after the devastating earthquake and tsunami, the girl group Kara has decided to donate all the proceeds from their new single "Jet Coaster Love" to the relief efforts. Although digital distribution for the new single has already start, physical copies of the single will not be available until an undetermined date. The group did not want the distribution of their single to interfere with the distribution of aid to places that need it.

The group was in Japan for a TV drama shoot when the earthquake struck. It was the first time group member Han Seung Yeon had ever felt an earthquake. "Although these people are experiencing such a hard time, I firmly believe they have tremendous courage to overcome the challenge" she stated.
While I'm not an active listener of KARA, I am very impressed with their effort to donate 100% of the proceeds of their new single to aid those affected by the earthquake in Japan. That is very inspiring and beyond generous of them. I am very awed by this and I know their Japanese fans especially must be moved by this as I know I am. Although I had no intentions on buying this single, I might just get it for the cause!
