Kana Tachibana to leave Dream

Girl group Dream has announced on its website that member Kana will be leaving next year. According to the message, Kana stated, “Even though I’ve been granted my childhood dream of becoming a singer, that’s not my goal. I still have a lot to study to become the person that I really want to be.” She said that she wants to always continue singing, but she has decided that she needs to grow on her own, rather than as part of Dream.

Dream has a concert tour starting on December 4 and ending on February 11. Those will be her final performances as part of the group.

Dream started in 2000 as a 3-member group, and Kana is the only remaining member from that original trio. The group currently has six members, including Kana.
