As reported earlier, Dal Shabet celebrated their first year anniversary through a press conference on the set of upcoming music video. During the event, the members looked back on their hardships during the beginning of their career.

The group started off saying, "We were hurt at the malicious comments left about us as soon as we made our debut."

Leader Serri explained, "Immediately after our debut, we earned the title, 'the next Girls' Generation' which brought us malicious comments. Some articles were released stating criticisms like we’re 'not at all like Girls’ Generation' or that we’re ‘ugly’, which wasn’t good to watch."

Serri stated, "At the time of my debut, I got in the headlines for resembling Wonder Girls‘ Sunye and Girls’ Generation member Jessica, which brought a lot of hateful replies that hurt me". She added, "I suffered a lot. It’s already been a year since then".

Dal Shabet members stated, "We’ll try hard to build an identity for ourselves so that not only is Dal Shabet known, but also the individual members, so that the way we look like other people doesn’t become an issue", expressing their hopes.

The group also thanked their fans, "We're thankful for the love of our fans. We’ll work harder in order to repay you."
