In February, Kang Daniel traveled to Portland, Oregon to film “Hello, Daniel,” which will air through SBS FiL, a new cable channel run by SBS Medianet. “Hello, Daniel” is a travel reality show that follows Kang Daniel traveling around alone as a 25-year-old young man, instead of an idol.
During the interview, Kang Daniel shared his reason for starring in “Hello, Daniel.” He revealed, “The biggest reason is that I personally felt that I needed a new point of transformation,” saying that making new experiences in a new environment during a vacation was the way to find that point. He added that he had been longing to go traveling as well.
On starring in his first solo reality program, Kang Daniel said, “Because it’s my first solo [variety program], I felt really pressured and I felt a sense of responsibility. Since the story revolves solely around me, I felt more responsible and that I should work even harder. However, the I liked the purpose of the program, and the filming was very enjoyable.”
The artist also talked about his experiences in Portland, saying, “I was able to spend time understanding, thinking, and organizing the concerns I had inside me a little more.” He shared that while organizing his thoughts of the past and future, he was often struck with the feeling that he would be able to become happy. Kang Daniel said, “I learned to take it easy. I think I also became thankful for the small things. There are things you can only see if you walk slowly.”
Kang Daniel shared that it was also very difficult to find an answer to what kind of person he truly is during his journey. He explained, “Rather than focusing on what kind of person I am, I want to become someone who asks myself what kind of life I’ll lead in the future as Kang Daniel. I think there will be no end to finding the true Kang Daniel.” He also added that the variety show will portray him as he is naturally.
Furthermore, Kang Daniel chose “Portland’s charm” as the point to look out for in his upcoming show, adding that he’s happy to be able to share the many charming locations of Portland with many people and asking viewers to watch the program as if it were introducing travel spots rather than showcasing his travel log.
Finally, Kang Daniel shared with the viewers, “I’ve returned as Kang Daniel for the first time in a long while. It’s also been awhile since I’ve gone traveling, and it was a really great time during which I could feel why rest and leisure are necessary. I hope everyone watching ‘Hello, Daniel’ feels the happiness of traveling with me. Always stay healthy. Please enjoy watching ‘Hello, Daniel!'”

On June 15, a source from Kang Daniel’s agency KONNECT Entertainment confirmed reports that he will be participating in the OST for SBS’s upcoming Friday-Saturday drama “Backstreet Rookie.” They added that they were still in the process of ironing out details such as a release date, and asked for people’s patience and understanding.
This will be the first time that Kang Daniel participates in a drama OST, so anticipation is high to see what kind of song he will be releasing.
“Backstreet Rookie” will be a romantic comedy set in a 24-hour convenience store between store owner Choi Dae Hyun (Ji Chang Wook) and part-time worker Jung Saet Byul (Kim Yoo Jung). The drama will be premiere on June 19.
On the latest episode of MBC’s “The Manager,” Kang Daniel expressed his love and deep gratitude for his manager.
Kang Daniel and his manager Jung Dong Yoon appeared as guests on the June 6 episode of the variety show, which gave viewers a glimpse into the singer’s everyday life.
Throughout the footage of his daily routine, Kang Daniel was adorably unable to stop cracking up because of his manager’s quirky jokes, which no one else around him seemed to find funny. As they watched the footage, the MCs and panelists in the studio expressed both confusion and amazement at just how easy it was for the manager to make him laugh.
In an interview, Jung Dong Yoon remarked, “I don’t think of myself as a funny person. But Daniel laughs a lot whenever he sees me. I’m always serious, but Daniel says that’s what’s so funny about me. I actually feel a little bit of pressure because he keeps calling me funny.”
He added with a laugh, “I don’t know why he finds [what I say] funny, but of course I feel great when he says that I’m funny. I feel proud even though I didn’t do anything.”
Later in the episode, Kang Daniel opened up about how Jung Dong Yoon had helped him during the most difficult time of his life. The singer, who went on a hiatus for several months last December due to physical and mental health concerns, thanked his manager for being there for him when he needed it most.
During a car ride, Kang Daniel recalled that Jung Dong Yoon had started working as his manager just when things were getting rough. “You came at a chaotic time,” he said. “Before everything had settled down. It was when I was going through the hardest time.”
He went on to tell Jung Dong Yoon with a grateful smile, “Back then, when I was going through a rough time, you came to my house every day, without missing a single day. You would come to see me, and we’d play games and eat together. Just having someone there by my side was nice in and of itself.”
Kang Daniel reiterated his feelings in the studio, commenting, “I’m always grateful to him. Back then, he really came to my house every single day for two months.”
He added, “It had only been about four months since he’d started working as my manager.”
In his interview, Jung Dong Yoon fondly recalled that Kang Daniel had told him, “Being with you makes me happy. Don’t go anywhere, and let’s keep working together.”
Jung Dong Yoon continued, “[Kang Daniel] also tells me ‘I love you’ often. When he drinks, he’ll say ‘I love you’ and give me a hug. As a manager, it makes me feel proud.”

August 7, Konnect Entertainment said, “After Kang Daniel’s solo debut [in July 2019], his aggregate album sale number has surpassed 1 million copies.”
According to data from Hanteo Chart, as of August 6, Kang Daniel’s solo debut album “color on me” has recorded 472,811 copies sold, while “CYAN,” the first of Kang Daniel’s “color” trilogy, has hit a total of 265,101 copies sold. Kang Daniel’s second mini album “MAGENTA,” released earlier this week on August 3, recorded 273,468 copies sold by 11:59 p.m. KST August 6.
Sales for the three albums come to a total of 1,011,380 copies, for an impressive milestone roughly one year after Kang Daniel’s solo debut.
Moreover, “MAGENTA,” which features the title track “Who U Are,” has yet to hit the one-week mark since its release but has already topped the sales of “CYAN.”
On the August 7 broadcast of KBS 2TV’s “Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook,” Kang Daniel appeared as a guest to promote his mini album “MAGENTA” and title track “Who U Are.”
For his first performance, Kang Daniel showcased his charming voice with “Interview,” a b-side track from his first mini album “CYAN.”

Regarding his name, Kang Daniel explained that he was actually born as Kang Eui Geon. He shared, “It’s the name my father gave me. However, I’m from Busan and the people there have trouble pronouncing ‘Eui.’ There were times I was confused about whether they were calling me or not. Although it seems small, that stress kept building up and it was bugging me so I ended up changing my name.”
Host Yoo Hee Yeol mentioned Kang Daniel’s impressive dancing skills and asked when he first began dancing. Kang Daniel answered, “I joined a b-boying club in eighth grade.”
He shared the funny story as he said, “I wasn’t initially planning on joining that club. In seventh grade, I was in the magician club and I wanted to join the reading club in eighth grade. My teacher told us to write our names down to sign ourselves up but I fell asleep. All the other clubs were at maximum capacity and there happened to be a b-boying club. I was really introverted but I had no choice but to sign up and join. At first, it was really boring, but after a couple times I began to think, ‘Something fun has found its way into my life’ and began to work really hard.”
At Yoo Hee Yeol’s request, he also showed off some basic b-boying moves that he first learned while in his middle school club.
Due to difficult family circumstances, Kang Daniel found himself having to drop out of his arts high school after one year and instead took Korea’s equivalent of the General Educational Development (GED) test. He commented, “Although ballet was fun, my tuition was too expensive.”
After turning 20 years old by Korean reckoning, Kang Daniel moved to Seoul to become a singer and began living in a goshiwon, a type of housing arrangement typically leased by students studying for an important exam.
Kang Daniel impressed Yoo Hee Yeol with his positivity as he shared, “The older guys I spent a lot of time with back then hated when we lived in the goshiwon. However, I had fun. Each month we paid 170,000 won (approximately $142). When I lay down, I could reach all the walls, but I liked that. I thought it was cozy.”
Despite his positive outlook, the singer also explained that he had his fair share of hardships. He explained, “By nature, this career involves extravagant performances but I felt like it was so cold where I was. That’s why in my early twenties I meant to enlist right away but they had too many enlistments so I was pushed back. While planning on getting certifications to try and get employed, I went to my last audition,” which is how he made his fateful appearance on “Produce 101 Season 2.”
After finding tons of success with that last audition, Kang Daniel shared, “I went to Busan right away and went on a date with my mom. I bought her lots of clothes and had fun. My mom is very happy.” He jokingly added with a laugh, “I did get shivers seeing how much she spent though.”
When asked about his dream, Kang Daniel responded, “I think this was automatically decided when I started to become a singer. Since I’ve come to adore the stage, I hope to become synonymous with the word ‘performance.'”
Kang Daniel also sang a bit of Kim Johan’s “I Want To Fall In Love,” which he shared he heard during his time at the goshiwon. He explained that he happened to overhear Jung Seung Hwan’s cover of it on “K-pop Star” and that it gave him lots of strength.

Lastly, Kang Daniel showcased an energetic performance of his latest title track “Who U Are”!
