Idol girl group KARA will resume their singing activities in Japan with the release of their Japanese maxi single next month.

On Tuesday, KARA's official Japanese website showed that their new single titled "SPEED UP/Girls Power" will hit stores in Japan with three different editions on March 21.

The group’s last Japanese single "Super Girl" achieved triple platinum status after being sold over 750,000 copies since its release on November of last year.

KARA, composed of members Gu Hara, Han Seung-yeon, Park Gyu-lee, Kang Ji-young and Nicole, is currently one of the most successful Korean girl groups to break into the Japanese market.

The girls set off on their Asia tour “KARASIA” with their first show in Seoul in mid-February and will take their show to Japan in April.
