IM SO HYPED..BUT..I'm thinking this MINI ALBUM will be their only material for 2011. but IM A HAPPY BLACKJACK!

^ Thanks. :luv2

I'm a happy blackjack too! thanks for posting it! :luv2

Me too! :heart
After reading that I have the feeling there will maybe coming more than "just" a mini album. Who knows?

maybe a mini is just for June...the year is still long...hahah..
There's definitely a Japanese debut...so I guess, they're gonna mark their spot in another part of the world...
and I REALLY HOPE THEY DEBUT IN US THIS YEAR...like in DECEMBER would be Mighty fine...aafter they're concert...
THAT would be a great 2NE1-YEAR plan

Who is everyone's favorite out of the group? I seriously love Park Bom, her vocals just connected with me instantly. Beautiful in upbeat ballads like Don't Cry and You and I.

My favourite is CL. :heart
Pretty obvious reading my posts, lol.
She's fierce and got a gorgeous voice with singing and rapping.
And she's speaking really good English.

Personality-wise it's Dara.
She's always trying her best and brightens everything up.

Overall is probably Bom. I wasn't that fond of her until recently, but her voice has that special something that makes me recognize her immediately (CL & Minzy sometimes sound rather similar to me). I still don't get it why she did plastic surgery, she was beautiful before too :(.

I LOVE them all very much and I like how each member is distinctive unlike most fir grps. DARA is so fresh and bubbly. I won't deny I was attracted to her looks at first in Fire but then as time went by, she is so corky and adorable. Bom's voice is amazing and I liked her more after seeing her confidence grow and ESP after 2ne1tv haha! For CL, I LOVEEEEEE her charisma and swag. She really has that cool fashion sense too. And she blossomed from FIRE haha. I've always seen Minzy has the powerful dancer an that was what wowed me since the start...now I'm even more impressed with her vocals.

LONELY LIVE TODAY!!!!!, I hope they start teasing about the new song...unless he decides to troll us and not release it due to Lonely's success

I've been freakin' in SO LOVE with Park BOM since the time they performed FIRE on their debut stage! :D

i thiiiiink my favs are dara and cl but bom is SO ADORABLE WITH HER CORN OBSESSION AIGWOEHJEWOJH tbh i have no idea who my fav is :roflmao

damn 2ne1 performed on inkigayo and WON!! so happy for
them!!!!! I need new songs from them like NOW lol can't wait
for their new mini allbum!

^OMG THEY WON?????? :faint :faint
AND THE PERFORMANCE IS JUST PERFECTION

Great performance! Love them all so much! :heart

Funny how YG has NOT said anything about the new song on Thursday.
LONELY ROCKS!

Minji, keep your like this for the rest of your life. It's beyond amazing on you.

To hear all 4 of my lovely ladies of 2NE1 again after being away is so beautiful. Not being able to listen to my music and especially Lonely is killing me. The performance is stellar. Keep it up.

omg I have no idea who's my favourite is :laugh
I love all of them, they all have their own charms, yet I have my fangirl moment with one of the member at time, like I'm so dara-bom biased right now XD

perfect performance anyway :luv2

They were amazing!

I wonder if YG will proceed to reveal their new song at 0000 tonight :/

Well, I hope so!

their AWFULLY quiet this time...even before the Daesung incident, there was NOTHING

edit: uh-oh...nothing? :(

^was it supposed to come out today??? :O

yup. and in another 3 weeks, the mini will be out. Its a one-song-per-3-weeks promotional cycle starting from DONT CRY

^oh i didnt know Dont Cry was apart of this too! hmmm hope we'll get it soon then :/ i havent seen any teaser pics or something either .__.

Hm, really wonder why we didn't get anything.

we must wait until the 23 June than we have a new mini album <3 <3

I'm thinking it due to the Daesung incident..as YG family, doubt they would release anything at this pt of time.

Or...YG could just be trolling once again because of Lonely's success that they see no point in releasing another new song till the mini album...(which hopefully not get delayed)

Noooo :weep

YG on Air and the 2NE1 song have been postponed for a week. They'll be released next week~
cr. allkpop

Too bad, I really wanted to hear the new song :yes

Ugh, I didn't even know they were supposed to release a song this week and now it's being taken away :(! I hope it doesn't get postponed anymore :/

Eh, just a week more...

I'll wait... I'll wait...

i can live with that :laugh the accident must have been a huge shock to them :( (even though they werent involved)

Yeah, they're very close groups. So...does TOP really have an interest in Bom? :lech

Had a dream about the new single last night! It was called "Saturday Night" or "Last Saturday Night", something like that. It was a mid tempo dance tune with an epic instrumental break that had cello XD

YG trolled at 0000 again...I'm hoping the song get released later in the day or something. If YG ON AIR is going on as promised then they should just release the song!! Arghh

^^omg cool :laugh


want the song too ;__; come on YG

They may as well just release the mini album :/

It's literally killing me :/ I've been listening to their 2NE1 album over and over again.

FINAL LONELY PERFORMANCE (LIVE SESSION)



Hopefully with this, we'll get their new song like REALLY SOON
anyway this live totally put a new spin on Lonely :)

Such perfect vocals :heart

JUST READ IN THE KUU THREAD THAT THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE A COLLAB WITH HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! still only a rumour though BUT OHMYGOD PLEASE LET THIS BE TrUEEEEE APOWGTJEH:ORJO

^ Oh wow, seriously? How cool is that? Hopefully that's true.

what..!!! *DIES*

Kuu feat. 2NE1 ???? :thud
omg if it's real then it's dream come true ~episode II~ because the first one is namie feat. AS for me XD

o dear. it's Sunday and YG has not delivered his promise :S

:weep

should we wait for another week ? :\

Weird we get absolutely nothing, not even an information about another delay - but I actually can wait this time, cause the release of the album isn't far away.

It isnt IF they would stick to their word and release it on 23rd June. But now, what gives? I really hate it when YG keeps doing this. I mean, it's not the first time. Esp concerning Big Bang and other YG artistes. Of course, lately I've seen them sticking to what they say and of course, with the Daesung issue, I cant blame them.

But I dont like how they are dealing with it. If they are not sure when it should be release, (or if they are sure about "next week") why cant they just give a more definite date or something. Making fans wait like that and having already not stick to their word is kinda wrong to me

^i agree, YG is always like that :grumpy so annoying.. it kinds seems that he doesnt care about the fans

I think he does care about the fans, but it seems like he's incapable of multitasking lol

Something has to pop up tomorrow. :(

Well, there will be a reason for this. Maybe the song is not good enough and they still have to polish it? I'm fine with waiting as long as that means that the final product will be better :).

^^^lol that could be it too :laugh

Yea but give us a notice. And shouldnt they be prepared to release it 2 weeks before given his plan for 2NE1. 3-weeks-a-song was one of the coolest promotional tactics. I understand why it has been pushed back a week. but....hopefully we hear from them soon. It feels very weird waiting.

Unless he decides to just drop the bomb on us like....in hours time...and VOILA! here's the new song. LOL! something he is capable of doing too...like when Try To Follow Me was released.

I TOTALLY NEED FIRE II

YG BLOG

“June 24th will see the release of the digital single, <I’m the Best>.

First of all, I would like to apologize for the delayed releases of 2NE1’s new songs due to internal problems. Following behind ‘Don’t Cry‘ and ‘Lonely‘ will be 2NE1’s newest track, ‘I’m the Best’, which is scheduled for June 24th.

The song was produced by YG’s main producer, Teddy, and is an electronic hip hop track that’s reminiscent of 2NE1’s debut song, ‘Fire‘. The style of the song will definitely be familiar to the youth who are used to clubbing culture.

Unlike the previous two songs, we do have plans of promoting this one on music programs. It will be the first time in nine months that the girls will promote actively on air after they concluded their first album promotions last year.

The music video for the song was directed by Seo Hyun Seung and will be released at 12:00 AM KST on the 24th concurrently with the digital single.

Our current date of release for 2NE1’s mini-album is July 21st. It will include the three releases, as well as two new tracks. Because it is an album that we have been working on for a long time, we have a lot of things planned. Further information will be updated at a later time.

-

On August 27th and 28th, 2NE1 will be holding their first solo concert at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park. The hall can seat 4,000 people per concert. Although it isn’t a big concert compared to other YG concerts, we wanted to make sure that 2NE1 would be able to work closely with their fans since it’s their first concert.

Tickets will be available for sale on July 7th, and further information will be posted on YG and 2NE1’s homepages next week.

Regarding ‘2NE1 Season 3‘, the broadcast date has yet to be finalized. ‘YG ON AIR‘ will continue to be broadcast in a guerrilla fashion, where we film whenever we have good ideas.

2NE1 will be crossing over to Japan in September after their Korean promotions for about two months of debut and promotional activities.

We ask that you give 2NE1 your anticipation and support, and I promise to return with more details regarding their album. Thank you.

FROM YG.”

FIRE ~episode II~ ?
I've waited two years for this!!!!

It's amazing no? I'm so hyped for a fire P.II :yes. Then their mini concert, :D

*____________________* muchmuchmcuhcchcmuuuuchhhh better that her fug lonely hair!

Grey hair? Don't know if I want...
Please go back to red hair Bom! :yes

I don't think her hair is grey. There is an effect on most digi cams to select one color to highlight, while the rest of the picture is black and while :yes

Well it could be the lighting or the camera, but even if it were grey it doesn't look that bad imo :yes.

grey ? I thought dark hair suits her best but let's see..

and that dara pic is so cute lol

^^^oh that could be it :P but i wouldnt mind this hair, i think she works it :luv2 + she wouldnt be the first one in kpop to have this haircolour~

NEW ADIDAS PIC

That's such a cool cover!!!!

^^dont really like what they did to the song but omg the video was so cool *_*

its a BIGBANG Love Song MV meets Lonely :) i love the idea haha

Yay, can't wait for I'm the best!
Meh for the delay, but it's not that long imo.

I love grey hair, but it have to be done right.
So i really wanna know if Bommies hair is grey now...

it's a week away argh!!!! >.<

^do you know if we already have an exact date??

For the next single?
I'm the Best is coming out on June 24th, next Friday, as a digital single, as well as the MV for it.
The mini-album is out on July 21st. It's all on the last page.^^

^oh i must have missed it! thankyouuuuu <3333 GAH SO EXCITEDDD hoping for teaser pics soon :luv2

Bom looks uncomfortable in that adidas photo :laugh, but they all look great :heart

Here's a photo dara shared on her me2day account featuring the set of the MV I'm The Best. On ningin though, and it seems on her message, she called it The Very Best, so i'm kind of confused as to whether it's going to be one or the other...

http://blog.ningin.com/2011/06/18/2n...eo/#more-54519

^ Same story on Allkpop, except it has the correct title. Just assume that ningin is wrong since all other websites say otherwise.

It seems that ningin is confusing the song title with the sign Dara is holding in this picture which reads "I'm the very best": http://www.allkpop.com/2011/06/not-t...%80%99-sandara

^ Ah okay XD Thanks for clearing that up! :thud

YG HAS ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS OF THEIR OWN POSTINGS
