Former 2NE1 member and Korean singer Sandara Park, popularly known as Dara, recently visited the Philippines to film an upcoming variety show Idol Truck Project in Clark, Pampanga.
Despite her global fame and multiple projects set in South Korea, Sandara has always been fond of the Philippines, which is definitely among the reasons why she keeps coming back.

On her social media accounts, the Korean singer expressed how amazed and flattered she was upon knowing that many Filipinos still know her even though she’s no longer active in Philippine television.
