DSP Media reveals KARA's Nicole will not be renewing her contract and Jiyoung may decide to focus on studies
Recently rumors surfaced about KARA's disbandment with a Japanese media outlet running an exclusive story, which DSP Media denied at first. However, the agency has revealed that KARA might be seeing some changes as Nicole has decided not to renew her contract and Jiyoung is in the process of deciding whether to continue her singing career or focus on school instead.
DSP Media announced through an official press release, "We are announcing our official position on the matter of Nicole's domestic contract with DSP Media."
"Gyuri, Seungyeon, and Hara have all renewed their contract for another two years, and have decided to conduct their future activities with DSP... The contract for Jiyoung is different from the other members, it will end in April and she has decided to think more about her life's path, her singing career, and education."
"Nicole has revealed that she has no intention to renew her contract with DSP and thus her contract will expire in January as originally scheduled," the agency indirectly stated that Nicole will no longer be a member of KARA once the contract ends.
However, the agency assured fans that the name of KARA will continue on even if there are members that leave. In addition, with Jiyoung's decision of whether to continue with singing or focus on school instead, those close to her told the media, "Its true that she is thinking about resting. She looked into studying abroad. However, at the moment, at the time she is working hard as a part of KARA, nothing has been confirmed yet... It's not that she's saying that she's going to quit her life in the entertainment field. There's still a lot of time left, so we'll be having to discuss this more."
