According to an exclusive by TV Report, Nicole will be making her solo debut soon, finally returning to the music scene after departing KARA back in January!

The news article claimed that multiple insiders from the music industry revealed her debut date was approaching.  Allegedly, she has decided on her debut track and is engaged in vocal and dance practices, planning to promote a song and do a showy performance that might set her as the next Lee Hyori, according to insiders. They say she is also very much like Lee Hyori in terms of their career path as the veteran soloist left DSP Media group Fin.K.L to pursue solo activities and is signed under B2M Entertainment.

We previously reported an exclusive on Nicole possibly joining B2M Entertainment, and it appears she has finalized a contract with them since then, presuming the insider comments are true.
