popstar

This is the first single by daawin, who turned 20 this year and celebrated his coming-of-age ceremony. Raised in Asakusa, Tokyo, he moved alone to New York during his third year of middle school, and four years later relocated to Chicago, where he continues to live today.

Born into a music-loving family, daawin learned to sing from a young age, performing in many different settings. By elementary school, he was already singing commercial songs, including a campaign for Universal Studios Japan. He has always approached singing with dedication and passion, while also learning to play a variety of musical instruments.

With a bright, sparkling sound, the song tells a love story from the perspective of daawin as he steps toward becoming a pop star. As his very first release, the track was created through a process of trial and error, making it a meaningful song that marks the beginning of his artistic journey.
