Attending the '2026 S/S Seoul Fashion Week' photo wall event held at DDP on the 5th, Dayoung shed her usual bright and lovely image for a powerful, charismatic street-style look that captured everyone's attention.

She sported an oversized leopard print outerwear, cinched with a belt to create a chic and confident silhouette. This was paired with ultra-mini black denim shorts, black stockings, unique eyewear, and chain-detailed platform boots, culminating in a remarkably polished street ensemble.

This striking change in style at Seoul Fashion Week amplifies the anticipation for her upcoming solo career. Fans are eager to see what new facets of her artistry Dayoung will reveal on stage following this bold fashion statement.

Dayoung is set to officially embark on her solo journey with the surprise release of her first digital single, 'gonna love me, right?', on the 9th. This marks her first solo venture after nine years since her debut. A teaser released on the 4th hinted at her bold transformation, showcasing silhouettes dancing in the darkness illuminated by car headlights, creating an aura of mystery.

Her agency, Starship Entertainment, has stated that through this single, Dayoung plans to solidify her position as a solo artist by presenting music, performances, and diverse content that showcase her unique color. 'gonna love me, right?' is scheduled for release on September 9th at 6 PM KST across various online music platforms.

Dayoung debuted in 2016 as a member of WJSN, taking on the roles of main dancer and sub-vocalist.

Beyond her group activities, she has actively engaged with fans through acting and variety show appearances.

With her solo debut, Dayoung is expected to showcase her unique musical identity and performance style.
