YG-LIFE: Who Will Make a Comeback on May 28? 2NE1 or CL – Fans Welcome Either

WHO WILL MAKE A COMEBACK ON MAY 28? 2NE1 OR CL – FANS WELCOMES EITHER

Untitled-1s

YG Entertainment has recently announced that the artist who is to make their comeback on May 28 will either be 2NE1 or CL. Now all eyes are on the two possibilities.

On May 13 at 2p.m., on its official blog, the Entertainment agency has posted a teaser image of the artist making a comeback on May 28. Fans were excited to see 2NE1 and CL’s names highlighted in the image.

Whether it be 2NE1 or CL, the public is happy with the news. Fans are patiently waiting for 2NE1 as they have not released any new songs for the last one year, after their digital single “I Love You” last year.

But if CL makes a comeback, that would be her first solo debut. This is exciting news for the fans. Bom and Dara were the only members who have also released their solos in 2NE1, and the fans have not yet seen CL, the leader, release her very own song.

2NE1 was the first Korean girl group to hold a world tour, and it was a huge success. Since their global concert, 2NE1 joined in on other artists’ concerts as a guest artist. Those occasional appearances quenched the thirst of their fans.

In April they were on stage with the global star Psy for his exclusive concert, and around the same time were also at G-Dragon’s concert for a remarkable performance. The most special was when the group performed with the American hip-hop legend Snoop Dogg on May 4 for a joint performance.

Whenever 2NE1 is on stage the venue fills with excitement and enthusiasm. This is no wonder that the fans have always been waiting for their comeback.

To console the waiting fans, 2NE1 had repeatedly told them that the group “will release a new album.” And they would always add, “Please stay tuned!”

Their words show that it will highly likely be 2NE1 making a comeback on 28. The hint is, if you add all the numbers in May (5) 28, 2013, it equals 21. It was a unique hint borne by the brains of YG Entertainment.

Apart from 2NE1 and CL, there are artists lined up to make a comeback from YG. Personnel from the Entertainment said, “starting from May 28 until the second half of this year, there will be scores of YG artist making comebacks. Along with our CEO Yang Hyun-suk, the artists and staff members are putting concerted effort into preparation.” Now the expectations of the fans will only go higher.

News: YG – “Who’s Next? To Be Revealed on May 28th” 2NE1 · Big Bang · Kang Seung Yoon?

BJjqnFGCAAAQ0x-

YG Entertainment revealed a notice announcing the comeback teaser date on the 28th, of one of its singers or teams, catching the attention of many.

On the afternoon of May 6th, YG Entertainment posted a teaser image with the words, “WHO’S NEXT? 2013.5.28” On the teaser image, the names of YGE artists were posted, such as Big Bang, Psy, 2NE1, Epik High, Gummy, as well as Kang Seung Yoon, and the YG rookie group which has yet to be named. On the upcoming 28th, a YG singer or group would be making their comeback announcement, sparking the attention of fans and netizens.

In the cases of both Big Bang and 2NE1, neither groups have yet to introduce new songs, as their schedules were all full last year due to their respective world tours; on the other hand, the new YG girl group is still clouded in secrecy, making speculations going around as well.

But given the time frame, it has been known that 2NE1 and Big Bang have been doing recording and preparing for a long time, so a possibility of an album from either group is more likely, since G-Dragon has recently released a song that has already become popular. However, there’s also the possibility that the new group would be the one making their debut activities at the end of this month as well, as YG is known for its surprise tactics.

A YG representative said, “Many YG singers have been preparing and recording for a long time, the 28th will make the start of their comeback into activities,” he continued, “Teasers will be revealed little by little in the future before the unveiling and the start of full-fledged activities.
