KARA’s Nicole has been busy running around and supporting her hoobaes and friends and the latest friend to be supported by the ever-cheerful member is none other than SHINee’s Key.

SHINee’s Key wrapped up his last performance for his debut musical Catch Me if You Can on June 7th and Nicole went to visit Key to watch his last performance and to give him support. She shared a collage through her Twitter, writing, “jjak jjak jjak (clap clap clap)! See, our Kibeomi has done very well >_< Musical is amazing! Strike again for the last show!”

In the top left corner, we see Key and Nicole showing off their close friendship as the two idols (born in the same year) posed together backstage. Nicole also included three pictures from during the performance.
