SISTAR, , Dasom
The life of an idol is not all glitz and glamour, and SISTAR's Dasom recounted the story behind her eye-opening experience.


"With the SISTAR album or my solo album, I wanted to challenge myself with genres like R&B or African American music, the kind that few people like," her groupmate Hyorin said on 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook'. "But the company always turned me down. They said that it wasn't popular enough and that only I could sing it."


"A company's goal is to create a profit," Dasom explained. "Since that's the objective, Hyorin's song wasn't put on the album because it didn't have a wide enough audience. The song itself was excellent."


The MC, Yoo Hee Yeol, expressed his surprise at Dasom's worldliness. "It's been two years since I had my eyes opened to this kind of world," she replied. "Four years after my debut, I can understand pretty much everything there is to understand."


It seems that there's more to being an idol than just making good music. Now we're curious about what Hyorin could do with an R&B album!
