Untitled

Day & Night is the sixth Korean mini-album of the South Korean girl group Kara. It was released on August 18, 2014 with the song "Mamma Mia" as promotional single.[1] It is the first album to feature Heo Youngji following the departure of members Nicole and Jiyoung earlier in the year.[2]

Background

After the departure of Kang Jiyoung and Nicole Jung from the group, DSP Media started a TV show titled Kara Project, a reality TV program which revolves around seven trainees who competed to become the new member of the group. On July 1, 2014, Heo Youngji was proclaimed the winner. Following her victory, DSP announced plans for the group to release a South Korean album in August before embarking on a concert tour in Japan on October.[2][3] Producer Duble Sidekick was later announced to be working on the record.[4]

In July 16, it was reported that the group finished the recordings of the mini-album's promotional single music video.[5] In August 8, the tracklisting and snippets of the songs were revealed by Kara's official Twitter and YouTube accounts.

Composition

The EP consists of six tracks. The first five tracks, including the lead single "Mamma Mia", were composed by Duble Sidekick. The music video was filmed in the Gyonggi Province on July 9.[6] The song will also be released as the group's eleventh Japanese single after it received good reviews from Japanese affiliate label, Universal Sigma.[7] The last track on the album, titled "Story", were co-written by members Park Gyuri, Han Seung Yeon, and Goo Hara.[8]

Promotions

The group held an album showcase in August 18, same day as the EP's release, at UNIQLO-AX Hall and was also aired on channels SBS MTV in South Korea and TBS in Japan on August 24.[9]
