Re-Introducing Darlene With Her Debut Song, Daydream, To Show That This Is Her Now

This is not just a return. THIS IS HER NOW. 

Making a brilliant appearance, Darlene is ready to capture everyone’s heart with her debut single “DayDream''; striking a remarkable start with her journey, announcing that THIS IS HER NOW.

Darlene first captured people's hearts by participating in a popular singing competition show when she was young. Showcasing her vocal prowess, she made an impact and touched many people. She took another step when she debuted with SBTown’s first girl group, YGIG. She contributed her charismatic stage presence and power vocals with YGIG’s debut single, Shaba-Shaba. But because of health reasons, Darlene had to leave the group and take rest for a while.

And this February 9, 2024, Darlene is ready to show everyone that this is her now! She is set to carve a new path as she gears up as a solo returning artist for the release of her debut single “DayDream”. Darlene is under the supervision of SBTown’s CEO, Mr. Geong Seong Han, and care of SBTalent Camp’s South Korean trainer, Ms. Adelaide Hong, and is being co-managed by Ms. Kathleen Dy-Go of Universal Records.
