Who are dream?
They're a very popular group with a VERY confusing history. ^^;
dream
(which is spelled in ALL lowercase) debuted in 2000, and there were 3 members: Mai Matsumuro, Yu Hasebe, and Kana Tachibana. However...on July 27, 2002, Mai left the group to pursue a career in songwriting
(she was also the main songwriter of the group, so you can imagine how devastated everyone was when she left).
Auditions were held for a new member...but in the end, SIX people were added to the group, including Risa Ai and Sayaka Yamamoto
(note: Sayaka also has a sub-site here). So dream became an 8-member group. But on March 28, 2004, Risa Ai left the group -- and now dream has 7 members.
With some many members, people wondered if they'd become another Morning Musume rip-off...but thankfully, that doesn't seem to be happening. dream's unique style is still holding strong. =)
