KARD - Hola Hola
KARD has once again conquered France!
After a memorable concert at La Cigale in September 2023, KARD returned to Paris on December 11 to celebrate the “KARD 2024 TOUR [WHERE TO NOW?]“. Invited by Jin Entertainment and Studio Pav Europe, KSTATION TV was honoured to attend the reunion between KARD and the French HIDDEN KARD (fandom name).
Since its debut in 2016, KARD, composed of J.SEPH, BM, SOMIN, JIWOO, has conquered the international public with its powerful titles and unique concepts. Thus, after it visited Paris in September 2023, we were eager to meet KARD again and discover the new performances planned by the members. A return also highly anticipated by HIDDEN KARD who knew how to create a burning atmosphere from the first notes of the last title “Tell my momma“.
During the first part of this concert, KARD members made us vibrate to the rhythm of their most popular songs such as “Ring the alarm“, “Whip!” or “Bomb bomb” which are only a foretaste of this evening, as BM says: “the real party start from here“.
A party that continues with a solo performance of the latter on “Nectar” and “Motion“, his latest solo tracks, as well as the famous song “Lowkey“. During this moment, the rapper showed us a more R’n’B and more sensual style before returning accompanied by the rest of the group.
This concert was also an opportunity to discover the tracks from KARD‘s latest album, “WHERE TO NOW? (PART.1 YELLOW LIGHT)“. Navigating between hyperpop, reggaetton and hip-hop, these new performances deserved this wait. The members showed their hard work and their charisma on these tracks for the first time in France.
In addition to these performances, the group shared many unique moments with their fans. The members learned French by learning phrases such as the famous “ici c’est Paris” which made the audience react warmly. But they had also prepared some surprises for their fans.
First of all, the members announced a battle where the girls and boys opposed each other. A battle won hands down by SOMIN and JIWOO who offered a unique performance on the song “Enemy“. Then before announcing the end of this concert, KARD exclusively announced a new single for December 17. “Detox“, sung in unison with the fans, talks about the fact that we must get rid of all the negativity that surrounds us.
Therefore, after another memorable concert, the group offered an overexcited encore with the tracks “Red moon” and “Dumb litty” before taking the time to thank HIDDEN KARD for their support.
“It’s cool to be back. I feel so alive as an artist when I’m here. It was a beautiful night, thank you.” – BM
“Thank you for supporting us. Thanks to you, Paris is perfect tonight. I thank you again for tonight.” – SOMIN
“Paris is really hot. Time went by too quickly. I had a great time thanks to you. I want to see you every year.” – JIWOO
“We thank you one by one for this evening.” – J.SEPH
Finally, we will remember from this concert the energy and charisma of the KARD members, but also the proximity of the group to its fans. The members managed to establish a real festive atmosphere that makes us want to come back as soon as possible!
Finally, KARD will conclude its European tour at Turbinenhalle 2, Oberhausen, Germany on December 13th.
