A Successful First Step, a Second Single Crafted with 150% Energy
"I’m happy enough even without eating, and I’m not tired even without sleeping. This kind of happiness can’t really be put into words. I’m even more grateful because I received this love as my true self."
WJSN’s Dayoung (Dayoung) has returned as a complete solo artist. Her second single, released 7 months after her previous work, "What’s a girl to do," is the culmination of her musical certainty gained since her successful solo debut. Her first solo track, "body," previously surpassed cumulative streams of 10 million and even took No. 1 on music shows—an impressive achievement in the Kpop market. During her first solo activities, Dayoung revealed that she went on stage with the mindset of it being her "last" performance. For this solo comeback, she confidently said she poured in more than 150% energy compared to before.

Direct Participation in Writing and Composing All Tracks, and a Striking Bronze Transformation to Capture Attention
This new album, to be released at 6:00 PM on the 7th, includes the title track "What’s a girl to do(What’s a girl to do)" and the B-side "Priceless (Catching Catching)." Dayoung took part in writing and composing both songs herself, proving her abilities as a singer-songwriter. For stage direction as well, she plans to focus on a high-difficulty performance that flows for three minutes straight and steady live skills, rather than relying on flashy devices. Even the visual transformation is set to draw viewers in. Her styling—featuring bleached blonde hair and a bronze-toned complexion—goes beyond simple sensual appeal, highlighting Dayoung’s own healthy and energetic charm.

Three Years of Intense Preparation, a Leap Toward a Global Kpop Artist
The path for Dayoung to establish herself not just as a member of WJSN but as an independent solo artist was backed by three years of intense preparation. From basic vocal correction to learning English, and even direct communication with composers based in the U.S., she spared no effort to prove her own value. Dayoung, who has nurtured her dream of becoming a singer since around age four, read aloud a letter she wrote herself to the reporters at the interview site, expressing her deep gratitude. With Dayoung saying that every single moment of singing on stage still feels like a dream, all eyes are on what kind of leap she will make on the global Kpop stage next.

"Since I was four, I wanted to be a singer. When I was five, the drawings I made at an art academy were also of me—mouth wide open as I sing."
"This day is meaningful and precious to me, and also to the teammates who prepared with me. Our album truly contains a lot of our time, our concerns, and our sincerity. So through today, I wanted to deliver, in a direct way, not just a simple comeback interview—but my gratitude for the feelings I experienced while making the album, and for the time I’ve walked up to now."
