Goo Ha-ra (born January 13, 1991), better known mononymously as Hara, is a South Korean singer and actress. She is best known for being a former member of South Korean girl group Kara and for portraying Choi Da-hye, the president's daughter, on City Hunter in 2011. Hara debuted as a solo artist in July 2015 with extended play Alohara (Can You Feel It?).
Goo Ha-ra was born on January 13, 1991, in Gwangju, South Korea. Before debuting, she participated in SM's youth appearance tournament in 2005. In 2007, she auditioned for JYP, however, she lost the runoff.
She was also an online shopping mall model, having been scouted after her photos were uploaded onto DSP's homepage. Thus, Hara became a member of Kara. She is currently attending Sungshin Women's University.
On January 5, 2010, during an appearance at SBS' Strong Heart she admitted to getting dental and minor cosmetic surgery on her face. She confessed to receiving one filler injection on her nose and had her teeth fixed. She stated that she had always had double eyelids, but had surgery to get them more defined.
Kara debuted on March 29, 2007. In 2008, however, a member, Kim Sunghee, left the group. DSP Entertainment replaced her with two new members, Goo Hara and Kang Ji-young, and Kara made a comeback with Rock U, which changed their image from "Hip-hop" to "cute and playful".
On December 4, 2008, Kara had a comeback on M! Countdown with "Pretty Girl". In February 2009, Kara released their second mini-album "Honey". "Honey" became the group's first No. 1 single when it topped the charts on M! Countdown and The Music Trend.
