When asked if who is their favorite superhero, Taeyang then answered Darna. The members were surprised to see Darna's sexy outfit.
Created by Mars Ravelo, Darna first appeared in Pilipino Komiks #77 on May 1950, possibly patterned after Wonder Woman. In the most popular version of her origins, she is a deceased warrior from another planet who manifested herself through the body of a crippled girl named Narda.
