Dara from 2NE1 (real name: Park Sandara, born 1984) appeared on MBC Standard FM's 'Son Tae-jin's Trot Radio' on June 24, openly discussing her 22-year entertainment career and how her perspective on perfection has evolved. When asked what changed the most since debut, Dara revealed that her perception of her profession and personal image shifted significantly over time. She admitted to having 'an obsession with perfection' in the past, constantly feeling that she needed to appear impeccable in front of the public without any flaws. This pressure exhausted her and made it difficult to fully enjoy her career journey. However, Dara now states she has learned to abandon unrealistic standards and feels comfortable participating in projects even when she doesn't feel 100% perfect in front of cameras. This transformation has brought her relief, and she is gradually learning to cherish her journey, including its imperfections. Dara debuted with 2NE1 in 2009 as the visual member and remains one of K-pop's familiar faces, maintaining a positive and approachable image that continues to earn love from audiences.
