SPICA Sets Sights On US Fame, English Debut 'I Did It' Drops August 7
After two and a half years in the industry, girl group SPICA will soon be making the career-changing leap most K-Pop artists only dream about. On August 7 (OP note: EST), five-member K-Pop group SPICA will drop their debut US single, "I Did It," and follow the release with a live performance at KCON 2014 in Los Angeles on August 10.
Since making their debut in South Korea in early 2012, SPICA has seen success with four singles and two EPs, all of which have been well-received by critics and fans alike. The group's most recent release, "You Don't Love Me," has over two million views on YouTube and counting. Already a success on the K-Pop charts back home, the new challenge for Boa, Bohyung, Juhyun, Narae, and Jiwon will be winning over fans (and the airwaves) in the US.
Stay tuned for the release of "I Did It" on August 7.
