sandara park was actually the most famous foreigner celebrity in the philippines before she became a member of 2NE1 and no her life wasn’t easy with her dad being imprisoned and getting tricked into lingerie photoshoot, if you want to know more about her she has a documentary by kdocs out here in youtube and this documentary is actually what led to many entertainment companies in korea to take interest in her…
this dude doesnt understand the real meaning of the song Ugly and im so frustrated. That song is the anthem of outsiders like me and this resonated to me so much when they released this song. the song is basically mocking the beauty standards of Korea and how 2ne1 doesnt fit them.
i would say not even a boygroup, not even any group. It's not just the energy, it's the charisma and the love that they have for performing. You see 2ne1 live, you never see them lacking ANYTHING
A lot of idol groups covered 2NE1's songs but because 2NE1's vocal colors are so unique, the original versions are still able to stand out so much from the covers.
fun fact: ugly refers to how many media and even the company described them in the beginning, 2ne1 were not the typical group of beautiful girls (according to Korean beauty standards) for me they were always beautiful
no cause i remembered hearing ugly the first time like 15 years ago and i cried. and knowing how 2ne1 members were also called "ugly" in the kpop industry like in front of them, people would call them ugly, I was so mad. This is why I dont blame bom having surgeries like imagine being put in that situation everyday. I just want to see these girls have great life
For 2 years YG put 2NE1 on hiatus. So for 2 years Minzy had no performances and was living in her apartment. So she, and her Father, went to see YG when it was time to renew Minzy's contract. Minzy wanted to do solo performances so she could have something to do. YG turned her down and Minzy did not renew her contract. "Goodbye" was written by CL to express their sadness for losing Minzy.
"I don't care" is actually their most successful single in korea next to I am the best, it won daesang SOTY i don't care and i heard this song everywhere on radio before.
2NE1 is a really special group for me. I became their fan just before their legendary 2015 MAMA performance when they all came together after 2 years with Bom. And I was so excited that they were going to have a comeback only for them to come out with a disbandment song instead. I will never forgive YG for not supporting 2NE1 when they needed the support and not protecting Bom and basically throwing her under the bus. YG also used to keep calling them ugly and when debuting Blackpink, he marketed BP as being the "pretty" version of 2NE1 🗿 I'm just happy that the girls are still together despite everything and celebrates their anniversary every year still. CL also brought 2NE1 together for Coachella a few years back
외국인들이 오해할만한 한국문화가 못생겼단 말을 쉽게 하는겁니다. 근데 그말은 양면적인 면이 있는데 친구끼리도 서로가 못생겼다는 말을 하며 장난치듯 쉽게 합니다. Yg가 그들을 못생겼다고 한건 아이돌로서 기본적으로 갖추는 외모의 기준에는 못미친다는 말에 대해서 인정을 한건데 사실 이때만해도 yg는 아티스트의 외모를 보지 않는걸로 유명했고 yg는 가수가 노래와 퍼포먼스만 잘하면 되는거 아니냐는 주의라서 못생긴게 뭐가 중요하냐는 의미인데 외국팬들은 이런 언어의 늬앙스를 이해하기 쉽지 않아요. 게다가 2ne1도 공공연히 자신들이 외모적으로 다른 아이돌에 비해 못생겼다고 말하고 다니며 받아들였는데 한국인은 스스로 못생긴걸 자연스럽게 인정합니다. 그래서 역설적으로 성형수술도 많이 하는 거랍니다. 요지는 한국문화는 못생겼다 하는 이야기를 다른나라보단 자연스럽게 말하는 문화가 있다는 겁니다. 그래서 더더욱 아이돌에게 외모평가의 기준이 높은겁니다. 엔터기업은 사업이고 아이돌그룹은 광적인 팬이 있어야 운영이 됩니다. 그래서 외모를 많이 보는거죠.
Thats why 2ne1 one of the OG blueprint of kpop girlgroups, they can kill every genre of music.. ughhh i love my queens!! Thanks for your reaction ❤ i miss them so much
2NE1 is something else, i want to cry every time i think they disbanded. My favorite girl group 😭 i became a blackjack around 2012/3 so i lived through some of their era, and what an era. They broke the stereotypes of girl groups, doing girl crush concepts and using styles (clothes and hairstyle) very unique and colorful. They were considered “ugly” by the koreans’ standards (from where “ugly” came from) and netizens poked fun on that many times. However their talent always came first and were very loved by the public for their songs. Their discography isn’t a lot but each and every song reach enormous success both locally and globally, they were friends with the designer Jeremy Scott whom appeared in the “happy” mv. I’m glad all 4 of them and yge for creating the best girl group, “2NE1”.
Stop spreading misinformation. The one you said who called them ugly made and approved the song UGLY and I AM THE BEST. It's the korean industry and its beauty standards itself who called them ugly and the song is a response to that, not YG.
@@lululittlebox I have seen the video where Yang called the ugly at the rehearsal. The group members have confirmed he said this. After 2 years of inactivity Minzy asked to do solo performances. This was denied so she did not renew her contract. CL, Dara and Bom wanted to keep performing. Then Bom was moved to the subordinate company. Finally Yang said they were disbanded. CL and Dara said they were not informed and found out through the news. An ugly situation.
@@lululittlebox They aren't wrong... Yang called them ugly to their faces for years. When he disbanded them, they didn't know about it until the news broke, and he had the nerve to brand BlackPink as the "pretty version of 2NE1". Even though they were out the door, he still found ways to bash on their looks.
He wasn't doing to be mean though, harsh criticism was coming for them because there was a beauty standard in Korean and YG was known as the company that isn't known for their looks but their talent.. Pissed at the company for how they managed these girls before the debut of Blackpink.
They totally own their music and performance and bring such energy. Honestly haven't seen any other female kpop group as real as them. Great reaction. Thanks.
YG mistreated them for YEARS. when it was time to renew their contracts Minzy had enough and was the only one who didn't renew. YG promised the three other members would continue as a trio and CL spent a whole summer writing and producing songs for the group only for YG to blindside not only the fans but 2NE1 themselves with their disbandment. The members had no say in it whatsoever. CL wrote Goodbye as a letter to Minzy, when she left the group but the song was released after their disbandment as a final goodbye to the fans. They are still very close, from time to time we get some crumbs from them, usually on their debut anniversaries. They made a surprise performance at coachella just a few years ago and keep talking about wanting to get the group back together (YG still owns the 2NE1 trademark, so im guessing thats whats stopping them). They've been through so many hardships and deserve the happy ending of doing what they love with who they love, so i really hope they get the chance to reunite.
YG is not perfect... but he made them and gave them wonderful songs, style, concepts, MVs. "YG still owns the 2NE1 trademark" - no ex YG artist had problem with trademarks, they just don`t ask, it`s not easy to promote the whole group on their own. I would be very happy if they`ll comeback under YG.
@@ankoin LMAO not the whygee dickriders on yt as well. Teddy made their songs, not whygee. Stylists & CL put together their style, not whygee. MVs are made by directors, not whygee. "They just don't ask" and you know this how?! CL has spoken about 200+ songs she made that won't ever see the light of day because she made those songs while she was signed to YG and they won't give her permission to songs SHE WROTE AND PRODUCED HERSELF. he mistreated and disrespected them any chance he got, even on camera, to the point where Minzy confessed it caused her depression and suicidal thoughts. Yall love downplaying women's trauma for this misogynistic pig. go suck his dick somewhere else, i really dont care what you have to say.
@@ankoinit was confirmed that yg tried to stop their name from trending after their coachella performance. 2ne1 has asked for their trademark and he refuses to give it up💀💀 2ne1 has shown repeatedly they can trend and get attention without him.
Watching Minzy grow up all over again while rewatching these is always a treat. She debuted at 14/15 years old and she was already so talented and continues to be in her solo endeavors. She truly deserves the title of dancing machine and I would consider her an ace now (it wasn't really a term yet back when I was in middle and high school). Glad to hear that you like 2NE1! I would recommend Clap Your Hands and their Japanese release Scream as well as their solo and sub-unit work. Their B-sides are also very unique too. :)
YG의 전성기를 열어준 남자그룹은 빅뱅, 여자그룹은 투애니원이었죠... 대중들의 많은 사랑을 받고 히트곡을 남긴 K팝의 대표그룹이죠.. 멤버 모두가 4세대 걸그룹처럼 외모가 아름답다고는 못하지만 실력으로 이를 뛰어 넘은 개성 있고 실력 있었던 그룹입니다.. 제 생각엔 이 그룹을 통해서 블랙핑크까지 탄생했다고 생각합니다..^^
I’m so so happy to see reactors in this day to react to 2NE1 when the Kpop industry is currently dominated by newer, younger and popular groups. 2NE1 really kickstarted the fierce “girl crush” concept in Kpop. They started a lot of trends not just in music but also in fashion. It’s just so sad how YG (their former company) mistreated them during their active years. 2NE1 had SO much potential and 7 years weren’t really enough for them to show everything. But as they were getting bigger, some people just wanted to sabotage them and their own company didn’t do a thing to protect them (esp. Bom) and just let them be on hiatus until.. unfortunately, they disbanded. YG already was planning to debut their next gg at that time, and so they didn’t hesitate to abandon 2NE1 just like that despite CL fighting for her group to stay. I hope they do make a comeback for their 15th anniversary, though! My Blackjack heart is still hoping to see them back again together even just for one more time. For me, no other group can leave such an impact ever again :’)
Since 2009 until now I am proud to say that I am a solid blackjack 🥰 we all know YG 2nd Gen group made YG popular and rich because of their success during their time.
Minzy is not in "Goodbye" because she was the only one not to renew her contract with YGE, the song was written by CL as a farewell to Minzy, but YGE disbanded the group even after the contract renewal, trapping them for years within the company without being able to release music
Contrary to popular belief, in Go Away, it was actually CL who died as she was driving the black car. Most likely the other girls where just fragments of our imagination and CL cant see her. As you can see, whenever CL are with the girls, she never interacts but the other three are helping her and with her throughout the music video. And it was only until the end, when CL died, CL interacted with the rest of the girls. ☺️
2ne1 is part of the generation that made kpop a global sensation. Our Queens paved the way for the future of K-pop. Oh, the guy in Happy is Jeremy Scott, if i remember correctly he had a very close relationship with 2ne1 since most of their looks had pieces designed by him. I don't remember if he was with Moschino already during Happy's release.
Not me watching this straight. Huhu... i miss them soooo much!!! But you missed a few more MVs!! We need a Part2!! - Lollipop (with Bigbang) [pre debut] - Follow Me - Clap Your Hands - Dont Stop the Music - Scream - Do You Love Me - Crush And solo stuff!!!
@@RReacts_ you've seen the LOLLIPOP song of BIGBANG and 2NE1, right? Her pineapple hairstyle became a trend. Before that, no one would dare to wear such a hairstyle and risk being laughed at. But after she wore it, every girl wanted to wear it. 😂😂😂
I subscribed! Thank you for reacting to 2NE1. I'm so happy cause we're getting them back. 😭 I hope you react to their live performances as well, they're really iconic and different from other groups, newer or older. They set the standards so high, BJs can't even stan other GGs lmao. Plus they really love their fans and each other, unlike other groups. REAL GENUINE ARTISTS. LEGENDS. 👑
They are really like the female Bigbang. Their stage presence are TOP TIER! I dont see any other Girl group now who can be at their level when it comes to STAGE PRESENCE!
u know what. Lonely brought me into kpop in 2011 when i listened to the song i felt something differemt from other kpop songs and finally i become YG artist fans including Blackpink and now Babymonster
Since 2NE1 is coming back, the fan groups should come together and like schedule a watch party for every music video. Pretend that we're watching them for the first time. Lol.
That was a nice look back at 2NE1. As you mentioned, Fire may have been their official debut and what got them really noticed but it was their next song released I Don’t Care that had an even bigger impact on making them famous. In between I Don’t Care and Go Away there’s two songs and MV’s you skipped called Try to Follow Me and Clap your Hands. Both are totally different again from what preceded and did more to solidify 2NE1 as a powerful group with a girl crush theme. They also have some great songs and MV’s that are advertisements. The best one in my opinion is Don’t Stop the Music for Fiori scooters. And of course, their collab with Big Bang as their pre-debut called Lollipo for a cellphone. The other one I can think of is one for Intel. I can’t think of the title right now. Kind of shows you how big they were that Intel is having them make a song and MV. I remember it being good too.
I was there when 2NE1 made their debut with fire and lollipop (feat bigbang) and even they had a lot of talent, in the industry and korean citizens keeped talking about 2ne1 members wasn't as pretty as other idols, or talent , they had a lot of body shamed, didn't fit on korea idol standard etc.. comments about it. Even by their own director... They keeped recieving bullying for all their career, still today Boom keep receiving negative comments about her appareance whe people know that she have health issues.. Their disband was very so sad for me, 2ne1 is my fav girl group ever. PS: in "goodbye" song they are only 3 because Minzy was already ended her contract with YG. 2NE1 was in a very long hiatus until finally all the contracts ended and the rest of the members were finally free. CL was struggling to make their own music because of her restrictive contract with YG
Here's some easter eggs: Fire - Gdragon was there on the last part dancing behind Minzy. Happy - The guy is Jeremy Scott. The designer behind their iconic outfits especially the winged shoes. Comeback home - The guitar part is the acoustic version, the MV is a mixed of the original and acoustic version.
I love watching this kind of video about them. People who recently discovered them and their genuine reactions. It makes me feel like the first time i heard each of their tracks.
What great timing to take this journey! There's a huge possibility of a reunion/comeback! YAAAAAAY! Enjoyed your reaction a lot! You totally get it when it comes to how 2NE1 is unique, charismatic, talented, confident and amazing! Their discography is on point, too! Each song is different from each other. I hope you will also check out their live performances and concerts. Thank you for this journey!
OMG, I DONT KNOW HOW MANY YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE LAST TIME I HEARD THE SONG GOODBYE BECAUSE HONESTLY, I DONT WANT TO HEAR THIS SONG AGAIN, IT BRINGS TEARS AND SADNESS TO MY HEART 😢, NOW THAT I HEARD IT AGAIN, I STILL CRY THINKING THIS THEIR LAST SONG PREPARED FOR US BLACKJACKS 😭😭😭
ahh... the days were captions ain't available 😭😭 it ain't easy being a non-korean k-pop fan in this era but we're still here, when there's talks for a comeback. 2NE1 was such a fun group to stan 'cause their music will always deliver 👑👑👑👑
The reason Minzy is not in Goodbye MV is she left the agency before the release of the song. The news supposed 2NE1 would continue as 3, but they only released this song and then they disbanded. The song was a goodbye for Minzy (thats why she appears in the footage) but for their journey as a group too
I got into k-pop when they debuted and grew up listening to them and they were such an important group breaking the boundaries and stereotypes for girl idols. Such a shame they were considered the "ugly" group for not conforming the beauty stereotypes, most of the group suffered mental health issues after disbandement against their will. They left such an impact on the industry and basically invented the girl crush concept yet still not any group has come close to their versatility, depth or fashion -forwardness.
Ugly is not a song about the self love, the song itself display that everyone may feel ugly at least one moment in their life… and for 2ne1 they meaning it in away it’s okay if you feel that way sometimes because as a human being you can’t surround yourself with positivity at all the time. It might abit toxic to think about self love at EVERY MOMENT just like life, there is up and down. In Ugly movie, you can find many words written on billboard or shop… and 2ne1 knock that door off going into plastic zone telling the girls, it’s ok to be imperfect then at the end of the mv they light fire up to rebel at the so called place which does not allow ugly girl like 2ne1 join which reflecting how Korea beauty standard considered 2ne1 as an ugly despite their love for musics.
Thanks for telling! I can’t take in all songs and it is already so much so it can happen that a favorite song of some people might not be in these videos. I am still trying to include a good amount of them. I will definitely have a listen to that one :)
You gained a follower just for making this incredible reaction, 2ne1 is my favorite k pop group of all time, I love CL and seeing you react made me proud. Thank you
I first started with them when they debuted...Dara is primarily the reason why i heard about their debut . I went crazy when i first heard them with Lollipop and it just kept getting better. I miss them very much and news about their comeback goves me hope they can get the recognition they deserve globally.
I’ve been a Blackjack since day ONE! 2NE1 was the first gg I ever got into and they have such a special place in my heart. I will never get over the fact that they disbanded. I’m so excited that they got back together and are going on tour! I hope they come someplace near me in the US so that I can FINALLY see them in concert. CL is my ult bias of all biases. She is THAT CHICK. She’s an ace! Bom is my wrecker and I’ll never forgot sk netizens for how they treated her. Would you believe that they were called the “ugly” group back in the day?? There a famous story of Mr. YG himself at a rehearsal where they didn’t have their hair or makeup done and saying “WOW they really are ugly!” It blows my mind because they are STUNNING. He said that BLACKPINK is the pretty 2NE1.
Gosh thr nodtalgis hits me so hard. Im literally crying while singing. Thank you! It brings back a lot of my memories. Wow! I will start to binge watch your videos
WOW the lengths of the video!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for this 2NE1 reaction, and glad to know you enjoy most of their music!! It's never too late to get to know such a legend group 'cause we know they'll always be remembered and brought up again and again in KPOP history💛💚🧡💜
The guy in "Happy" MV is Jeremy Scott, a famous fashion designer who designed the clothes 2ne1 wore in the MV. They even had a shoe collaboration together! 2ne1 are his muses
I was about to do 2ne1 marathon after hearing the possible comeback...glad i did it with you.... I hope to do one with you again with their live performances and I really wish you'll do one with lyrics on it😊
the song "ugly" actually, yes, sad. with korean beauty standard, they used to perform and people calling them ugly. also like "scary unnie" or smthg like that. 😢😭
2NE1 really surprised me! Love their uniqeness and breaking standards!
Welcome to the real kpop all the kpop is about is been original and every comeback must come with a new concept 😊
2NE1 THE TRENSETTERS
sandara park was actually the most famous foreigner celebrity in the philippines before she became a member of 2NE1 and no her life wasn’t easy with her dad being imprisoned and getting tricked into lingerie photoshoot, if you want to know more about her she has a documentary by kdocs out here in youtube and this documentary is actually what led to many entertainment companies in korea to take interest in her…

funfact: 2ne1 I don't care song never left kchart since it was released.
You should watch their live performance. 2NE1 stage presence is super crazy, until now still not any girlgroup (also boygroup) can do like them
2 man in Fallin' on love are Hong Jonghyun and Lee Soohyuk (he also on It hurt MV)
THIS
💯💯💯💯💯

2NE1 are having a 15th anniversary comeback allegedly so I’m glad I found this video
I hope they do!!!!
Confirmed comeback now!🎉
YES AND A WORLDTOUR 🥰🤩🥳🎉
"I don't care" is actually their most successful single in korea next to I am the best, it won daesang SOTY i don't care and i heard this song everywhere on radio before.
I love this song aswell. Been listening a lot to it since checking it out
Also, 2NE1's "I Don't Care" has NEVER left Melon's daily chart since its release in 2009. That's so crazy to think about!
Here aldo in the Philippines
2NE1 is a really special group for me. I became their fan just before their legendary 2015 MAMA performance when they all came together after 2 years with Bom. And I was so excited that they were going to have a comeback only for them to come out with a disbandment song instead.

2NE1 was publicly called ugly by their CEO at a rehearsal. After this 2NE1 made two songs: "Ugly" and "I am the Best." as their answer to his comment.

YG의 전성기를 열어준
남자그룹은 빅뱅, 여자그룹은 투애니원이었죠...
대중들의 많은 사랑을 받고 히트곡을 남긴 K팝의 대표그룹이죠..
멤버 모두가 4세대 걸그룹처럼 외모가 아름답다고는 못하지만 실력으로 이를 뛰어 넘은
개성 있고 실력 있었던 그룹입니다..
제 생각엔 이 그룹을 통해서 블랙핑크까지 탄생했다고 생각합니다..^^
I’m so so happy to see reactors in this day to react to 2NE1 when the Kpop industry is currently dominated by newer, younger and popular groups. 2NE1 really kickstarted the fierce “girl crush” concept in Kpop. They started a lot of trends not just in music but also in fashion. It’s just so sad how YG (their former company) mistreated them during their active years. 2NE1 had SO much potential and 7 years weren’t really enough for them to show everything. But as they were getting bigger, some people just wanted to sabotage them and their own company didn’t do a thing to protect them (esp. Bom) and just let them be on hiatus until.. unfortunately, they disbanded. YG already was planning to debut their next gg at that time, and so they didn’t hesitate to abandon 2NE1 just like that despite CL fighting for her group to stay. I hope they do make a comeback for their 15th anniversary, though! My Blackjack heart is still hoping to see them back again together even just for one more time. For me, no other group can leave such an impact ever again :’)
Yassssss! Thank you so much for this reaction!!! 2NE1 is really the BEST!! 🙏🏼 💜💚💛🧡
Since 2009 until now I am proud to say that I am a solid blackjack 🥰 we all know YG 2nd Gen group made YG popular and rich because of their success during their time.
Minzy is not in "Goodbye" because she was the only one not to renew her contract with YGE, the song was written by CL as a farewell to Minzy, but YGE disbanded the group even after the contract renewal, trapping them for years within the company without being able to release music
I love Ugly''s lyrics and wouldn't change a thing about it
Contrary to popular belief, in Go Away, it was actually CL who died as she was driving the black car. Most likely the other girls where just fragments of our imagination and CL cant see her. As you can see, whenever CL are with the girls, she never interacts but the other three are helping her and with her throughout the music video. And it was only until the end, when CL died, CL interacted with the rest of the girls. ☺️
I love the older K-Pop groups from before compared to the newer ones. Even their songs are more fire than the ones they have today.
The guy on Happy music video was Jeremy scott CL’s friend and a fashion designer..he’s behind their outfits
when MISSING YOU played
I JUST CAN'T
MY HEART 😭😭😭💔💔💔💔
idk but Missing You and It Hurts have become the unofficial 2ne1 songs we collectively remember or play when miss 2ne1 esp after disbandment,.
After 8 years finally we got them back!!! I'm so happy that we Blackjacks could get through this and finally can see them again altogether
yes!!!! how amazing!!
Thank you for reacting to them. ❤️Watching their live performances is also a MUST! You will appreciate them even more. 🤗
2ne1 is part of the generation that made kpop a global sensation. Our Queens paved the way for the future of K-pop.
Oh, the guy in Happy is Jeremy Scott, if i remember correctly he had a very close relationship with 2ne1 since most of their looks had pieces designed by him. I don't remember if he was with Moschino already during Happy's release.
And they are now making a comeback so its truly the time to get into 2ne1
The fashion of these girls is insane. Look after look after look. Just one look at the shoes and you know.
I'm a fan of 2ne1 for 10years so this lovely reaction make me wanna cry, love u so muchh!
That is why 2ne1 is a group and the only group that stood out for me,,they just hit different❤❤❤
2NE1 is Queen Of Kpop....they are the legend....and 2NE1 is Bigbang girl version
Not me watching this straight. Huhu... i miss them soooo much!!!
But you missed a few more MVs!! We need a Part2!!
- Lollipop (with Bigbang) [pre debut]
- Follow Me
- Clap Your Hands
- Dont Stop the Music
- Scream
- Do You Love Me
- Crush
And solo stuff!!!
Another reaction for this list please. We're gonna and watch you again react to our queens ❤❤❤
The original Queen of Kpop
Yes, yes, yes! 2NE1 are THE kpop girl group. Icons, legends, trendsetters.
DARA is KPOP's Queen of Hairstyles. Coz she wears hairstyles that most female idols won't even risk to wear. 😂😂😂
yeah fr!!!
@@RReacts_ you've seen the LOLLIPOP song of BIGBANG and 2NE1, right? Her pineapple hairstyle became a trend. Before that, no one would dare to wear such a hairstyle and risk being laughed at. But after she wore it, every girl wanted to wear it. 😂😂😂
Haha that’s so cool
I subscribed! Thank you for reacting to 2NE1. I'm so happy cause we're getting them back. 😭 I hope you react to their live performances as well, they're really iconic and different from other groups, newer or older. They set the standards so high, BJs can't even stan other GGs lmao. Plus they really love their fans and each other, unlike other groups. REAL GENUINE ARTISTS. LEGENDS. 👑
They are really like the female Bigbang. Their stage presence are TOP TIER! I dont see any other Girl group now who can be at their level when it comes to STAGE PRESENCE!
u know what. Lonely brought me into kpop in 2011 when i listened to the song i felt something differemt from other kpop songs and finally i become YG artist fans including Blackpink and now Babymonster
OMG!!!! A live performance reaction is a must ❤❤❤ thank u for reacting to 2ne1
Since 2NE1 is coming back, the fan groups should come together and like schedule a watch party for every music video. Pretend that we're watching them for the first time. Lol.
That was a nice look back at 2NE1. As you mentioned, Fire may have been their official debut and what got them really noticed but it was their next song released I Don’t Care that had an even bigger impact on making them famous.
In between I Don’t Care and Go Away there’s two songs and MV’s you skipped called Try to Follow Me and Clap your Hands. Both are totally different again from what preceded and did more to solidify 2NE1 as a powerful group with a girl crush theme.
They also have some great songs and MV’s that are advertisements. The best one in my opinion is Don’t Stop the Music for Fiori scooters. And of course, their collab with Big Bang as their pre-debut called Lollipo for a cellphone. The other one I can think of is one for Intel. I can’t think of the title right now. Kind of shows you how big they were that Intel is having them make a song and MV. I remember it being good too.
Intel song- Be mine
And also Crush - MV
I was there when 2NE1 made their debut with fire and lollipop (feat bigbang) and even they had a lot of talent, in the industry and korean citizens keeped talking about 2ne1 members wasn't as pretty as other idols, or talent , they had a lot of body shamed, didn't fit on korea idol standard etc.. comments about it. Even by their own director... They keeped recieving bullying for all their career, still today Boom keep receiving negative comments about her appareance whe people know that she have health issues.. Their disband was very so sad for me, 2ne1 is my fav girl group ever.
PS: in "goodbye" song they are only 3 because Minzy was already ended her contract with YG. 2NE1 was in a very long hiatus until finally all the contracts ended and the rest of the members were finally free. CL was struggling to make their own music because of her restrictive contract with YG
Yeah that must’ve been so hard for them and it makes me mad hearing that now :/ I love them ❤️
2ne1 is my ultimate group before Mamamoo. Even then Mamamoo look up to them. I really hope they'll get reunion soon. ❤️
there's a news report that 2ne1 is planning to comeback and current in the talk with Yang hyunsuk (yg). I'm crying. I hope it's true.
Here's some easter eggs:
Fire - Gdragon was there on the last part dancing behind Minzy.
Happy - The guy is Jeremy Scott. The designer behind their iconic outfits especially the winged shoes.
Comeback home - The guitar part is the acoustic version, the MV is a mixed of the original and acoustic version.
Hence, 2NE1 is the OG KPOP Fashion Queens.
Missing You is such a masterpiece. Everything is perfection!
I'm happy to revisit the 2ne1 journey with you. ❤ 2ne1 is coming back!
I was okay. Smile and laugh and amazed along with u the whole reaction until GOODBYE guitar played. I'm teary straight away 😭
I love watching this kind of video about them. People who recently discovered them and their genuine reactions. It makes me feel like the first time i heard each of their tracks.
What great timing to take this journey! There's a huge possibility of a reunion/comeback! YAAAAAAY! Enjoyed your reaction a lot! You totally get it when it comes to how 2NE1 is unique, charismatic, talented, confident and amazing! Their discography is on point, too! Each song is different from each other. I hope you will also check out their live performances and concerts. Thank you for this journey!
Thanks! At some point maybe more of them ❤️
OMG, I DONT KNOW HOW MANY YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE LAST TIME I HEARD THE SONG GOODBYE BECAUSE HONESTLY, I DONT WANT TO HEAR THIS SONG AGAIN, IT BRINGS TEARS AND SADNESS TO MY HEART 😢, NOW THAT I HEARD IT AGAIN, I STILL CRY THINKING THIS THEIR LAST SONG PREPARED FOR US BLACKJACKS 😭😭😭
The QUEENS OF KPOP ❤
Don't worry 2NE1 are back
ahh... the days were captions ain't available 😭😭
it ain't easy being a non-korean k-pop fan in this era but we're still here, when there's talks for a comeback. 2NE1 was such a fun group to stan 'cause their music will always deliver 👑👑👑👑
Yeah I try to search for fanmade sub videos for the upcoming older k-pop videos. ❤️
Thanks for reacting to them, hope you can also check their live performances. They are known for their lives.
Maybe at some point
My 1st kpop group that i really stan back in 2009 when they debuted. so happy they are back
2NE1 ❤❤❤❤ is back the queens is back 👑👑👑👑👑
Their LIVE PERFORMANCES are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
2NE1 rainhas icônicas
1:31:40 You NEED to react to new album from CL!!! And her old songs!!!
She is the queen of kpop!! Her style is SO DIFERENT
The reason Minzy is not in Goodbye MV is she left the agency before the release of the song. The news supposed 2NE1 would continue as 3, but they only released this song and then they disbanded. The song was a goodbye for Minzy (thats why she appears in the footage) but for their journey as a group too
I got into k-pop when they debuted and grew up listening to them and they were such an important group breaking the boundaries and stereotypes for girl idols. Such a shame they were considered the "ugly" group for not conforming the beauty stereotypes, most of the group suffered mental health issues after disbandement against their will. They left such an impact on the industry and basically invented the girl crush concept yet still not any group has come close to their versatility, depth or fashion -forwardness.
Ugly is not a song about the self love, the song itself display that everyone may feel ugly at least one moment in their life… and for 2ne1 they meaning it in away it’s okay if you feel that way sometimes because as a human being you can’t surround yourself with positivity at all the time. It might abit toxic to think about self love at EVERY MOMENT just like life, there is up and down. In Ugly movie, you can find many words written on billboard or shop… and 2ne1 knock that door off going into plastic zone telling the girls, it’s ok to be imperfect then at the end of the mv they light fire up to rebel at the so called place which does not allow ugly girl like 2ne1 join which reflecting how Korea beauty standard considered 2ne1 as an ugly despite their love for musics.
No Clap Your Hands? 🥺 You will really like it, also check that one out!
Thanks for telling! I can’t take in all songs and it is already so much so it can happen that a favorite song of some people might not be in these videos. I am still trying to include a good amount of them. I will definitely have a listen to that one :)
@@RReacts_ You have to watch all of their JAPANESE VERSIONS. The MVs are different haha
Got into 2ne1 back in 09 ❤ im so happy to see people appreciating them to this day
You gained a follower just for making this incredible reaction, 2ne1 is my favorite k pop group of all time, I love CL and seeing you react made me proud. Thank you
I first started with them when they debuted...Dara is primarily the reason why i heard about their debut .
I went crazy when i first heard them with Lollipop and it just kept getting better. I miss them very much and news about their comeback goves me hope they can get the recognition they deserve globally.
Blackjack forever ♠️♥️♦️♣️
Love this compilation of your reactions! 2ne1 is the Kpop idols' idol! So excited to watch them for the first time live this November.
the slow rap part in the 2nd verse of Come Back Home MV is from Come Back Home acoustics ver. you should check that version out
Oh nice to know !
I’ve been a Blackjack since day ONE! 2NE1 was the first gg I ever got into and they have such a special place in my heart. I will never get over the fact that they disbanded. I’m so excited that they got back together and are going on tour! I hope they come someplace near me in the US so that I can FINALLY see them in concert. CL is my ult bias of all biases. She is THAT CHICK. She’s an ace! Bom is my wrecker and I’ll never forgot sk netizens for how they treated her.
Would you believe that they were called the “ugly” group back in the day?? There a famous story of Mr. YG himself at a rehearsal where they didn’t have their hair or makeup done and saying “WOW they really are ugly!” It blows my mind because they are STUNNING. He said that BLACKPINK is the pretty 2NE1.
💜2NE1 & BIGBANG 💛
I remember when they did a cellphone commercial with BIG BANG called Lollipop. I loved 2NE1 since then
not me seeing this when theyre rumors that theyll come back. BLACKJACKS ARE YOU READY???????????????????/
watching all this mvs,,, made me cry 😭😭😭😭😭😭 i miss them soooo much 😭😭😭😭😭
2NE1 is the queen
And love you reaction 😊
I miss you 2ne1❤
Thank you . reaction 2ne1❤
They are back! The queens of kpop ❤❤
the nostalgia watching 2NE1 again. Thank you for the reaction 👏👏👏
Gosh thr nodtalgis hits me so hard. Im literally crying while singing. Thank you! It brings back a lot of my memories. Wow! I will start to binge watch your videos
WOW the lengths of the video!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for this 2NE1 reaction, and glad to know you enjoy most of their music!! It's never too late to get to know such a legend group 'cause we know they'll always be remembered and brought up again and again in KPOP history💛💚🧡💜
The guy in "Happy" MV is Jeremy Scott, a famous fashion designer who designed the clothes 2ne1 wore in the MV. They even had a shoe collaboration together! 2ne1 are his muses
I was about to do 2ne1 marathon after hearing the possible comeback...glad i did it with you.... I hope to do one with you again with their live performances and I really wish you'll do one with lyrics on it😊
I might :)
the song "ugly" actually, yes, sad.
with korean beauty standard, they used to perform and people calling them ugly. also like "scary unnie" or smthg like that. 😢😭
This is so sad :(
I dont know why everytime I listen to “Ugly” I cry 😢. Even when Blackpink debut, they’re called the pretty version of 2ne1
❤️
2ne1 is my ult group. They can do me no wrong and they really paved the way for the girls. ♠️
Definitely a trip down memory lane for me watching you listen to their songs! I enjoyed this and I’m happy you did too 🤍
Manefesting for a 2NE1 comeback🙏
The Queens of K-pop 2ne1 ❤️
FIRE
I DON'T CARE
GO AWAY
I AM THE BEST
LONELY
COME BACK HOME
KISS
HAPPY
GOTTA BE YOU
All of it is bop and iconic ❤
