19 year old Dia, who is still a relatively new singer has run into a bit of a dilemma, due to fans comparing her to 2NE1’s Park Bom.Dia recently released her new track and music video for “Another Boy,” and she has been gaining quite a following. The fans have even started to claim that her looks, style and powerful vocals are very similar to Bom’s. Dia has been coined as “Bom 2.0,” and fans have created various comparison videos of the two singers.
Being that Dia is actually a very humble and new singer to the scene, she feels bad about what is going on. Her agency stated:
“Dia is concerned and apologetic that this attention may be burdensome and annoying for Park Bom unnie, so she is being extremely cautious with everything she does now.”
I never paid much attention to Dia before, but this just opened my eyes and I can’t help but like her now.
Dia released Another Boy on January 11th and has been performing on KBS Music Bank for 3 weeks now. Check out her performance below!
