During an interview with Japan's FujiTV, Jiyoung's father addressed rumors of strained relations between the KARA members. He reassured, "There is no disagreement among members." Jiyoung's father was referring to reports which asserted that on February 4th, KARA's leader, Gyuri, sat in a different row apart from the other members during their flight to Japan. When asked, "By chance, are there problems among members?", he answered, "It's definitely not that. When reserving the seats, things just coincidentally ended up that way. Rumors of disagreement are definitely false." He added, "Gyuri is also my daughter, Hara is also my daughter", emphasizing that there are no problems of the members' relationship to him. As for the contract dispute, Jiyoung's father said, "This is not a situation caused by our greed and selfishness. This didn't happen because of the parents' greed for money. The root cause is the broken trust in the agency. However, I don't think this is the right time to talk about these matters because we are still in the midst of discussing the issues." To conclude, Jiyoung's father stated: "KARA will continue to work hard. We will forever do activities as KARA. Forever KARA obviously means with all five members. This is because fans want KARA to be together as five." Source: Newsen via Yahoo!Korea
