DreamNote is a K-pop girl group that possess a unique charm, comprising members that possess individually different talents. They made their debut in November 2018 and have since attracted fans with a cheerful and fresh concept. The name DreamNote is derived from their motto "always sharing their dreams and aspirations with fans". DreamNote consists of six members, namely YouI, BoNi, Lara, Miso, Sumin and Eunjo.

On 12 October 2019, DreamNote held their maiden show in Malaysia at Centre Court Atria Shopping Gallery, Damansara Jaya. The girls appeared on stage at 7PM and introduced themselves with the help of Korean translator and host Hani Fadzil. Their show began with their latest song Hakuna Matata, wherein despite some technical difficulties resulting in a loss of minus-one music, DreamNote persevered without the guidance of music. They continued the performance a capella, proving their worth as live singers to the audience.
They then performed their song cong cong and afterwards expressed their gratitude to the fans that came so see and support their Malaysian debut. YouI also took the opportunity to exclaim a loud "Aku cinta padamu!" to the fans and was received with roaring applause.

For the autograph session, fans and members of the audience lined up to receive a poster, the only stipulated item the members were allowed to sign. Even so, fans took this opportunity to meet with their beloved idols and give them gifts while sharing short comments with each other. DreamNote looked delighted to be able to interact with their fans and wholeheartedly enjoyed their first outing in Kuala Lumpur. This brief showcase not only gave DreamNote the opportunity to formally introduce themselves to their Malaysian fans but also gave them exposure to further solidify themselves in the K-pop industry.
DreamNote is supported by well-known company, iMe. The iMe Group is responsible for many big name concerts in Malaysia and Singapore and have shown great interest in bringing DreamNote to the Malaysian stage. Their unwavering smiles and endless interaction with the crowd present defines their hard work and determination to make a name for themselves among all other K-pop girl groups. I truly believe that they are only beginning to show their quality and will be paying close attention to their development.
