[ARTICLE] Before their comeback, 2NE1 went to the U.S. again. Why?


This summer, the girl group, 2NE1 will be resuming full-fledged activities. It was confirmed that this past weekend, they had left for the US, and curiosity has been gathering. Recently, after all the members headed to the US, the UK, and Japan, they headed back to the US. A lot of interest is focusing on the reason why.

2NE1′s visit to the US was revealed when Park Bom uploaded a photo on her personal me2day saying, “Where am I?”. But because member, Sandara Park is making an appearance in Taeyang’s first full solo album MV, her departure was delayed for 2~3 days.
Representatives of YG stated “Before their comeback, 2NE1 is simply at the peak of their practices and preparations for the new songs.”, remaining quiet about the true reason for being in the US. Their location in the US has only been hinted somewhere between New York or LA, as YG did not disclose much.

Last year, 2NE1 after rising to the idol world like a comet, sweeping up various charts and top album sales, they even rose to the top with their solo activities. For their comeback this time, it’s not only those involved in the idol world, but there is also great interest coming from the fans.

In the first half of the year, 2NE1 refrained from activities as a whole, and spent a lot of time in other countries. Other than guesting at Big Bang’s Japanese concert, they have not revealed a clear purpose for the reason they went to Japan.

Many are beginning to wonder if 2NE1 had decided to do overseas activities, following the foot steps of the Wonder Girls. Although being a group that still hasn’t had very much experience, there are a lot of companies directing their attention on 2NE1, both in Asia and the US.

Different from other girl groups, they have been busy even during their hiatus, appearing in CFs, at events, and participating variety programs, etc. It has been difficult trying to figure out the reason why 2NE1 was allowed to rest for a couple months before frequently visiting the US.

However, on this topic, YG representatives denied, “It is still too early for (2NE1 to do activities in the US)”. “For an artist, the most important thing is contents. It’s simply a matter of giving them enough time to sufficiently prepare in order to enhance their contents”.

The four members of 2NE1 are all equipped individually with unique charms and personalities, and also special skills in dancing and singing. Are they preparing to enter into the overseas market? Or if not, is the reason for being overseas simply because they are absorbed in their training? These girls’ trips are making for a summer full of mystery.

[NEWS] Sandara Park to appear in Taeyang's Solo MV


2NE1′s Sandara Park will be appearing in her sunbae from the same company, Taeyang of Big Bang’s first full solo album music video. Recently, in the entertainment district, there has been a fierce battle in order to cast Sandara Park in TV dramas and entertainment shows.

YG artists have a strong sense of belonging, and their bonds are strong as well. For example, on the weekend of the premiere of TOP’s first, leading movie ‘Into the Gunfire’, more than 1 000 000 showed up, seated in the VIP area was his Big Bang band mates and of course, all the 2NE1 members showed up to show their enthusiastic support for him.

For this MV, even though Sandara Park has her regular full activities ahead of her, and is currently in the middle of busy schedules, she still made time. If it were not the title song, ‘I Need a Girl’ of Taeyang’s first full solo album (on sale on July 1st), it would not have been possible for her to participate.

Taeyang’s new song ‘I Need a Girl’ has G-Dragon featuring in it, however with the entertainment district’s hot topic, Sandara Park helping Taeyang out by making her appearance, the song is quickly rising up as this summer’s most anticipated song.

Production companies that are seeking Sandara Park for movies and dramas are quickly accelerating their paces. At the moment, the demand for her even exceeds top stars such as Kim Taehee, Jeon Jihyun, Song Hyegyo, etc.

Last year, she breathed life into her role as Rie, the daughter of a ninja in the MBC drama “The Return of Iljimae”, and she is currently at the top as a star who is equally able to succeed as an actor as well.

The 2NE1 members made their appearance in the idol world like a comet, and it has already been a long time since Sandara Park has risen to the status of a world-class top star. While she can be innocent, she can be equally sexy as well, and can even dance and sing. Any producers cannot help but to drool over her.

One of people close to Sandara Park revealed “Because of 2NE1 activities, she has had no time to appear in a full-fledged acting role”, “However because there has been a lot of interest over (Sandara Park)’s acting, even during her busy schedules, she willingly accepted the role and helps ease some of her desire to act.”

[YGFAMILY] YG Family to heat up this summer!


Big Bang, 2NE1, Se7en, and even Gummy. YG Family is heating up this summer in the idol world. As the representative of Yang Hyunseok expressed, it’s finally time for the “YG forces to mobilize themselves”.

Ever since last year July when 2NE1 released their mini album, YG Family has not released an offline album (T/N: I think the author of the article made an error – Gummy did release an offline album & Big Bang had their Japanese activities.). With popular idols Big Bang and 2NE1 , as well as Se7en, Gummy, and other top solo artists, the great agency has been on hiatus for one year. Why?

The reason is simple. Yang Hyunseok representatives said “It’s important that our artists succeed with properly composed contents. The YG members have had sufficient time and made new songs and practiced them. In the first half of this year, the reason that there were no properly-made, hit songs was because the contents were simply led by fans demands were insufficient”, “Starting in July, this will all change with the comeback of the YG artists.”

At the climax of the productions, not only is there the main producers of YG – Teddy and Perry, but also special long-term special artists from America that are producing for YG artists. “Previously, even offering them large amounts of money, these are prominent artists who wouldn’t accept the offers”, “However seeing Big Bang and 2NE1, they were impressed. They expressed how even if they were to debut in the American market, they would be incomparable.”

At the sound of the signal, one by one, they’ll be charging at full speed and are planning to take the idol world by storm.

It’s also almost time for 2NE1 to comeback. In the music market, saturated with girl groups that all have similar styles, it is certain that 2NE1 will stimulate their fans with a powerful, destructive force with their comeback, using a combined force of their skill and individuality. These girls, who appeared at Big Bang’s Japanese concert as guests, already are advancing into the world market, starting with their Japanese speaking and receiving high praise from the Japanese audience.

The music market is melting in the heat of the World Cup, with YG Family’s reappearances beginning in July, it seems like it will regain its energy and return interest to the idol world.
