Info: DANA debuted in 2001 as SM Entertainment's second solo artist. Personally chosen by Lee SooMan, DANA was expected to rise as the "next BoA". Prior to debut, she received promotion as an actress in popular boy band H.O.T's Age of Peace movie and in Kangta's "Polaris" music video. In 2001, DANA released her fairly successful first single "Diamond", a pop/dance track featuring Jung YunHo (who would eventually become a member of TVXQ). That same year, she released an album with the same name along with other singles. Her career blossomed and continued with promotion by appearing on variety shows such as X-MAN, as well as playing a main role in the sitcom Nonstop 3. Her second album release in 2003, however, was not very popular and sold poorly. From that point on, DANA disappeared from the music industry (aside from SMTOWN collaborations) until the debut of TSZX. Although she is considered the leader of The Grace, due to her longer involvement in the industry, DANA has stated in an interview that each member has equal status.
