On April 6th, girl group KARA unleashed their third Japanese single, “Jet Coaster Love“, after the original release date was pushed back due to the natural disasters that struck Japan early last month.
As soon as it was released onto the music charts, “Jet Coaster Love” instantly rose to #2 on the Oricon Chart. The incredible thing was that KARA dominated the chart without the help of promotional activities, thus proving once again their explosive popularity in the country.
All proceeds from the single will be donated to Japan’s natural disaster relief aid.

Despite issues with their label DSP Entertainment, KARA's controversy has not affected their popularity in Japan, as the group's latest single claimed the no.2 spot on the Oricon Daily Charts.
Coming in behind the popular female group SDN48, KARA's 3rd single "Jet Coaster Love" debuted at no.2, making it their highest charting 1st day single after all their previous singles debuted at no.5.
The group was able to beat other popular artists like the rock band UVERword, female artist YUKI, and the veteran female group Morning Musume.
Regardless of the single's success, KARA will be making an honorable deed, by donating all the profits from single to the Japanese earthquake victims.
