Posted on February 4, 2019 by R.R. in K-Pop // 0 Comments

iME Korea, a global entertainment group, has joined the Korean Wave as they debut their first ever girl group last November 2018. DreamNote, who was previously known as the iME Girls, released their first single album “Dreamlike”, as well as their music video for their title track “Dream Note”. They are an 8-member girl group – Sumin, Eunjo, Habin, Lara, Hanbyeol, Miso, Youi, and Boni.

The group’s name, DreamNote, is a combination of two words, DREAM (which has an English meaning of ‘what you want to do in the future’, and a Korean meaning of ‘giving’) and NOTE (which means ‘youngster’s space). Their name simply means that the group wants to share their dreams with the fans. As a part of the KPOP culture, DREAMNOTE also has chosen their official colors – Joyful Green and Cheerful Yellow. They have not yet released their fandom name.

If you are familiar with YG Entertainment’s Survival Show, MIXNINE, you might have seen her. Sumin took part in the show. She even managed to be a part of the Top 3 due to her great talent and charms. Unfortunately, the MIXNINE debut team was cancelled, so they had to go back to their agencies.

She also appeared on JTBC Teen Dating Reality ‘너에게 반했음’.

DEBUT TRACK

Their debut title track, Dream Note, is actually a perfect song for them since this song represents their determination and energy to move forward to their dream of standing on the stage. Their debut track was an upbeat type of pop song, a retro-ish feeling, yet shows brightness and freshness.
