Former NMB48 member Karen Hara (originally known as 原かれん) has launched her debut photobook titled “Do Strike”. The book, published by Kadokawa, hit Japanese shelves on 19 October 2024 and is priced at ¥4,400 (tax included). It showcases Hara’s 169 cm figure in a range of new poses, including her first appearance in a strap‑tied T‑back and bra‑free shots.
The photos were taken on the Indonesian island of Bali, where Hara rented a private villa near German Beach and an infinity‑pool villa in Ubud for the shoot. To promote the release, hand‑out events are scheduled for early November: a session at TSUTAYA EBISUBASHI in Osaka on 1 November and another at HMV & BOOKS SHIBUYA in Tokyo on 6 November, alongside a panel exhibition running from 19 October to 8 November at the Osaka venue.
