Honestly after the whole mess with Jay Park and 2PM I gave up on how the Koreans handle their celebs lol they're so... Idk the word but it's annoying.

A earlier CL debut years ago, like digital singles, physical mini album, album and 2NE1 singles & album, is what yg had to do.

it doesn't matter why they brought the shit up, the unleashed so much hate and it seems it wil never go down

Big Bang has scandals about drugs, accidents, alcohol in the past, and they aren't affected. WHY ?

Because they're a boy band. I rarely see them getting hate actually.

^That just sounds a little sexist to me...

^it is

It's sexist, but it's real.

Is it true to say that many Asian countries are still a bit misogynistic? I believe Japan still has that underlying mentality when it comes to the equality of the sexes but they've been getting a lot better in recent years.

Of course it is and it's true. You see more scandals about girl groups than boy
groups and even if boy groups get into scandals the fans and media don't act so
badly like they do with girl groups.

A little example here: a member of a girl group posted this hashtag on
instagram with the words #playforparis by mistake, even before she noticed
her mistake people outraged and started dissing her. And the same time a
member of a boy group did the same mistake and he didn't get any hate.

I don't hate boy bands at all but this is something I have seen in Kpop media in the past 8 years that I been listening to Kpop

side note: My dance team did a cover of CL's Hello Bitches check it out if you'r interested!

it depends on the company. JYP does handle his idols in the shittiest way, for real, look at TWICE which are still rookies.

YG apparently released a schedule for 2016. it said WINNER comes first with the releases, which did happen. it also mentioned TOP enlistment this year and a new Lee Hi album, and possibly AKMU. nothing about 2ne1 or CL and the new girl group is undecided.

I think it's been too long for CL to drop that album. it's been 3 years. it's not normal

^They seem to be too worried about the debut in America being perfect. Problem is that if she keeps waiting it just makes it all the less likely that she'd do well. I think they should just release it already. Well at least the EP for now and start promoting it in North America. I've honestly gotten bored with all the posts she's been making about hanging out with other people and photo shoots.

Maybe she will debut in 2030 be patient guys xD

If so, I hope that all my votes for Kuu and BENI were worth something *crossing fingers*

I just came across this and she looks so good.
Her nose looked so pointy in MAMA performance

Yeah, that's so typical: one electro, one ballad, one midtempo, one rock-ish, one jazzy etc. Is this so difficult to have own music style and releasing consistent stuff? Nowadays - YES.

CL only goes to parties and fashion shows to hook with popular people and do selfies.
where's the music?
promised in Sep this year.

I don't care anymore, tbh. I'm forever bitter about 2ne1

^this is a joke, 2NE1 contract end this year right? So 2NE1 is over this year.

I was watching 4Minute's Hate MV, and I thought, damn this fits 2ne1 perfectly.
