Who is Song Ha-young?
Song Ha-young’s road to debut ran through Idol School, Mnet’s survival programme of 2017. Kyeongin Ilbo reported on 30 September 2017 that the final broadcast had settled the nine-member debut line-up, and named Song Ha-young among them.
She has written lyrics since the year she debuted. On 5 June 2018, the day the second mini album To. Day came out, Seoul Shinmun reported that she, Park Ji-won and Lee Seo-yeon had written lyrics for the title track, ‘두근두근 (DKDK)’. “I have always been interested in writing lyrics,” she said, adding that taking part this time made her proud, as if she had come a step closer to her dream. On 27 October that year she sang ‘Fall in love’ for the soundtrack of the KBS2 weekend drama 하나뿐인 내편 (Hanappunin Naepyeon), which Break News introduced as the first drama OST by a member of fromis_9.
She has worked outside the group’s own releases as well. TopStar News reported on 22 October 2019 that she joined the chef Kim So-hee in her cooking segment on MBC’s My Little Television V2. On radio, Newsis reported that from 4 September 2023 she was a regular guest on ‘Live Chat’, the Monday segment of 딘딘의 뮤직 하이 (Dindinui Myujik Hai), the SBS Power FM show presented by DinDin; on 29 June 2026 she presented her first broadcast as special DJ of the same station’s Wendy’s Young Street, and the broadcaster published the full studio video of that show on its own channel. Frameless reported that she presented the broadcast of 1 July as well. That summer is told in the story of her special-DJ turn.
She has worked alongside Lee Na-gyung too. Sports Kyunghyang reported on 26 November 2024 that the two released ‘봄처럼 다가와’, the eighth part of the soundtrack for the ENA drama Brewing Love. Star News reported on 19 June 2026 that the two appear together in 방판소녀들 (Bangpan Sonyeodeul), a web-variety series from the production company Studio Bridge whose first episode went up on 15 June, meeting members of the public around Seoul.
What she worked on for the albums
On From Our 20’s, the five-member line-up’s first record, released on 25 June 2025, she wrote the words and music of ‘Twisted love’, MyDaily reported. On the second full-length album Glow ME, released on 21 July 2026, she worked on ‘Screen Time’, and TenAsia’s track list of 8 July showed that the eighth track, ‘Why do I cry?’, is sung by Song Ha-young and Park Ji-won.
In a written interview published by Star News the day before release, on 20 July 2026, she said that coming back with a full-length album had made finished quality the thing she cared about most, and that she wanted the album to prove the group could still show something new nine years in. She named ‘Why do I cry?’ and ‘Screen Time’ as the tracks she is fondest of: reading the lyrics of the first with Park Ji-won in the car felt like words the two were handing each other, she said, and made her look back at the years behind them.
Weverse Magazine had interviewed her before that. In the interview of 28 January 2022 she said she wanted other people to feel the emotions she had felt, and that she wanted to be the kind of friend Flover keeps wanting to see and spend time with.
