First K-Pop Idol From India? Odisha's Shreya Lenka on the Verge of Becoming Country's First K-Pop Star for Girl Group Blackswan
Shreya Lenka, born in Rourkela, is one step away from becoming the first-ever K-pop artist from India. Two people are now in the running for the vacant spot in the girl group 'Blackswan', Shreya and Dalcin, a member of the dance cover girl group Queens of Revolution.
An 18-year-old girl from Odisha, Shreya Lenka may soon become India's first-ever Korean artist. She is one of two finalists chosen from a global audition process to fill the coveted spot in the South Korean girl group Blackswan. Blackswan's label, DR Music, announced in May 2021 that they would hold global auditions to fill a vacancy left by singer Hyemi's departure from the group. The Rourkela girl learned western songs on her own by listening to online videos. Shreya is also a trained dancer and yoga practitioner.
