In 2015, his first project was a song called "Till I Die." There were more of his videos and works online. But it wasn't until "Eung Freestyle," featuring rappers like Sik-K, Punchnello, Owen Ovadoz, and Flowsik, that captivated viewers worldwide!
Eung Freestyle showcased DPR's symbolic and idiosyncratic rapping style in South Korea. With captivating backgrounds and dream-like sequences, their music videos continue to attract viewers and fans.
The EPs Coming to You Live, and Her were just the beginning for the group. Since then, they have been releasing singles, like "Action" featuring GRAY, the tropical sounding "Playlist," and the collaboration between DPR Cream and DPR Live, "Gravity."

We create, direct, produce, and edit all types of visual work and curate artists from various musical backgrounds and influences. Based in Seoul, our collective's main focus is to engage all audiences by actualizing a distinctive audiovisual experience."
A perfect example of this engagement is best noticed at their live concerts when DPR sings "To Myself," the lyrics repeating, "DPR we gang, gang," a coming together of the group and their fans sing along at the top of their lungs as one.
The Dream Perfect Regime is a coalition of individual artists who come together to create a new and distinctive musicality and production. They have built a strong and independent label for themselves to show off their diversity in the music industry and continue to wow audiences with unique creative projects.
