Rock U (also known as Kara 1st Mini Album)[1] is the first extended play by South Korean girl group Kara. It was released on July 25, 2008. Rock U was released as the lead single.[2]
This was also the first album to feature the two new members of the group; Kang Jiyoung and Goo Hara, following the departure of former member Kim Sunghee. The release also showed a big transition from the group's original "strong female" image to a "cute and natural" appeal, shifting from the R&B sound of their debut to bubblegum pop.
