Dayoung, a member of the group Cosmic Girls and a solo artist, opened up about the burden after the success of "Body."

Dayoung recently held an interview to commemorate the release of her second digital single "What's a girl to do" at Starship Entertainment headquarters in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

The album contains two titles, "What a Girl To Do" and "Priceless Kaching". "What a Girl To Do" is a song that honestly unravels the complex feelings and thoughts you feel when you come to like someone. The lyrics are impressive, realistically depicting the excitement, agony, and hesitation that everyone may have experienced in front of love at least once.

On this day, Dayoung said, "My first solo album came out seven months ago, and it received so much love that I was able to release my second solo album like this."

"I put a lot of energy into the first album, so I thought, 'Will I be able to work harder?' But when I tried it, I was able to do it again. I worked harder to prepare it, so I hope you listen to it a lot," he said.

Above all, Dayoung announced her successful solo start in September last year by winning the top spot on the domestic music charts as well as No. 1 in music programs with the title song "Body" of her first solo digital single "Gonna Love Me, Right?"

However, the success of the previous film has put a lot of pressure on preparing for this comeback. He said, "I was really nervous, and the pressure was too much for words to describe. The number of days I can't sleep has increased a lot," he confessed.

"We prepared more harshly for 'Body' because it was unexpectedly loved, and as if we were expecting a better outcome for season 2 if season 1 goes well, we prepared more," he said. "Body had a lot of trial and error and a lot of difficulties, but we were able to prepare more based on the data."

In particular, Dayoung participated in writing and composing both songs of this album, melting her own emotions and narratives. He said, "There was an age when I originally wanted to debut as a solo artist. "I really wanted to debut as a solo at the age of 27," he said. "I've been preparing for a solo album, thinking that I'll be able to prepare enough for about three years from the age of 24."

He said, "That's why at 27 years old, 'Body' came out. I wanted to share with the public the atmosphere of being 27 years old and the feelings of people in their late 20s, he said. "When I first came out as 'Body', I wanted to show the relaxation of my 10 years of experience on stage and the healthy middle point of being not too adult and not yet a child."

I'm 28 years old now. When I turned 28, I thought about what else to talk about, he said. "This title 'What's Girl To Do' is a song about pathetic feelings that you like someone so much that you do something wrong, make an encounter pretending to be a coincidence, and make a reason for it."

Dayoung said, "In a way, it may feel a little unpleasant to someone, but I thought that was a very natural feeling when I was in love," adding, "If 'Body' was close to feeling 'I want to be loved', this time I wanted to show how natural and cute 'falling in love' itself is."
