On the 29th of March, sixteen years ago, KARA released their debut studio album, The First Bloooooming.
It is the only album featuring Sunghee, who left in 2008 to pursue a higher education. The album was unfortunately not a commercial success and went unrecognized by the public.

˚₊‧꒰ა ♡ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ ALLUME is a six member generational girl group under Flowerbank Entertainment. They debuted in 2000 with a five-member line up. Their debut single GET UP became an instant hit, topping the South Korean charts and even breaking into the Japanese charts. Their successful debut would prove to be the blueprint for how the group would perform for years to come.
The group operates on a generation system, being one of the few K-pop groups to do the system properly and consistently. Every five years, the group will undergo a graduation of all the members and bring in new members, ushering in a new generation of Allume. The group is currently in its fifth generation.
Often compared to AKB for their extravagant stage outfits and graduation ceremonies, the group is performance-focused and has been home to some of the greatest performers in Flowerbank Entertainment. Most girls who graduate from Allume go on to become soloists or actresses, staying under Flowerbank. The group's generations all come together every five years to perform together, a tradition to usher in the new generation.
They are not without their scandals of course. They've been hit with plagiarism scandals in their early days, getting sued by SM Entertainment at one point for allegedly plagiarizing S.E.S's "Dreams Come True" in 2001. Though this dispute was settled outside of court, it still followed the first generation for the remainder of their career. Various members have found themselves in dating scandals and bullying scandals which is to be expected with a group of this size.
