Kep1er, a 9-member rookie girl group that came out of Mnet’s survival show Girls Planet 999 is drawing much attention with their debut with the title track WA DA DA on January 3.

Thanks to her good rapping skills and charismatic stage presence, the 19-year-old female idol has attracted a lot of fans within a short time. Dayeon is currently one of the most popular members of the group, along with Bahiyyih, Chaehyun, Xiao Ting, Yujin…
In a radio show Kep1er attended to promote WA DA DA, Dayeon confidently showed off her live rapping skills. Without background music or any auto tune, Dayeon’s voice sounds exactly like the audio version, as if she was “eating CD”.
