Mini albums take less time and money to produce than an album. Maybe if things sold better in Korea they would invest the time to make a full album instead. Before it was mini album and next an album, but now I think they've gotten into the habit of releasing too many mini albums just to stay a float. YG has Se7en to support in US and Big Bang in Japan.

Yes i LOVE this mini album too...small album but I dunno, it feels packed though...Of course they can do songs like FIRE...but for a debut, they showed their, fun, cute, serious, mature side all in this....

And the songs are definitely a grower...it feels a lot better after a few more listens...so I dont think people should be disappointed...

I bet if they do more FIRE...people might just put them off as Big Bang Female. Period.

I love their mini-album, especially Pretty Boy is awesome!
But the rest is nice, too. Really a good debut.
Is it confirmed they will release a full length album this year?

Probably towards fall!

And it turns out that the 50k preorders don't count!
According to Hanteo, the girls only sold 4k yesterday!

I still haven't download their mini album (internet limit...) but I saw the PV for "I Don't Care" and it's pretty awesome. The song is really catchy and I must say WAY better than "Fire". I really like CL's singing voice. Why does she sound so annoying when she raps? XD

I just finished the video too! Even though it looks just like Big Bang's Haru Haru/Lies (probably because it's the same director), it's so cute! I love Bom and Sandara so much~

CL does have a nice singing voice, but she tries to hard when she raps I think! She has three diff. voices: Her talking, her singing and then her rapping voice.

The MV was alright. I prefer Fire's MV. I didn't like I Don't Care at first but I ain't bad. One of my favorites.

I listen to the whole mini album. IT'S SO AMAZING. Pretty Boy is

The video was okay. The first time I saw it I didn't know what was going on. There were a couple of fan service types scenes. More time with the girls, but the scenes move fast so it's hard to catch it. Is it me or does the video scenes move faster as the video goes on?

I still like Fire more than I Don't Care, but I'm starting to appreciate it after the noise of Fire. The song is really laidback so I'm hoping to still see some great stage presence from them.

I love this mini album! I am truly impressed - 2NE1 is the breakout group of the year imo.

Nice video!
I like the song more now after seeing the video.
I like the dance, but overall it could have been a little bit brighter, it's so dark considering the summer vibe of the song.
I didn't recognize CL singing until I saw the video. XD
Her singing voice is great.

I hope it's as good as the mini-album.

HAHA that MV was funny. Playful 2NE1...but the costumes look like they redesigned their FIRE live costumes and wore them again HAHAH...
i found the scenes very jumpy...they could have focused on at least ONE of them for more than 3 seconds..
it made me like the song more
