K-pop veteran DAYOUNG has just released her debut solo mini album, gonna love me, right?, giving fans a glimpse of her true self in its boldest form.
gonna love me, right? is full of confidence and emotion, yet it still keeps DAYOUNG’s bubbly charm: each track explores love and self-discovery from a different perspective, with bright pop melodies that evoke summer’s fun vibes. Kicking off with “body,” the mini album’s focus track, DAYOUNG steps into herself as she lets the rush of attraction take over. Its sparkly quality makes it addictive and easy to dance to, with a captivating depiction of the excitement of falling in love.
DAYOUNG then moves into her ambitions and self-love with “number one rockstar,” a more introspective track that delves into the singer’s passion for music. The track features a heavier sound, with pop-punk guitar riffs and a slower pace that solidifies its confident tone. The album closes with the playful “marry me,” a bright and flirty love song full of cheeky humor. The infectious groove intertwines with DAYOUNG’s sweet vocals, with a vibe that is both romantic and a little sexy.
The song trio fully encompasses DAYOUNG’s fresh energy, marking a new chapter in the singer’s journey that feels vulnerable and authentic. From her debut with K-pop girl group WJSN to her first solo project, DAYOUNG is taking a departure from the idol structure into a more mature, sincere version of herself.
