[KARA] DSP Media clarifies why Goo Hara is searching for a new place

It was reported last week that KARA’s Goo Hara was searching to lease a new home, and many fans began to wonder why she was moving out of the group’s dorm.

On February 1st, DSP Media cleared all ill suspicions surrounding the members’ relationships by confirming that her decision had nothing to do with KARA’s recent controversy. “Goo Hara’s search for a house around Kangnam has no relations with KARA’s current situation.”

KARA’s dorm is located near Haengdang-dong in Seoul, and the agency representative explained that most of the members had a secondary place to go back to if they didn’t feel like going back.

“While maknae Kang Jiyoung’s family moved from Paju to a place closer to the dorm, Han Seungyeon and Nicole’s houses are also only a bridge away,” they said.

“They felt there was no need to live in the dorm when their houses were so near, which is why they’ve been comfortably going in and out since a year ago.”

Considering how Park Gyuri and Goo Hara’s homes are in Bangbae-dong and Gwangju respectively, they are the only two members who’ve been staying at the dorm consistently.

The representative stated, “We heard that Goo Hara is trying to find a house near the Nonhyun-dong office in Gangnam-gu. We were told that it is only for personal reasons.”
