In this article, we take the point of view that the charmed scalar meson D{sub s0}(2317) is the conventional cs meson and calculate the strong coupling constant g{sub D{sub s}{sub 0}}{sub DK} within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical values for the large scalar-DK coupling constant g{sub D{sub s}{sub 0}}{sub DK} support the hadronic dressing mechanism. Just like the scalar mesons f{sub 0}(980) and a{sub 0}(980), the D{sub s0}(2317) may have small scalar cs kernel of the typical cs meson size. The strong coupling to the hadronic channels (or the virtual mesons loops) may result in smaller mass than the conventional scalar cs meson in the constituent quark models, and enrich the pure cs state with other components. The D{sub s0}(2317) may spend part (or most part) of its lifetime as virtual DK state.
