OMG T_T I was so excited for their comeback, but YG had to postpone it. T_T But let’s think of it this way: More preparations mean a better and bigger comeback! ^^ Let’s patiently wait for the girls as I’m sure they are excited as we are! ^_^
2NE1 is delaying their comeback as well as the release of their new album.
A representative of YG Entertainment stated on the 12th KST, “There were plans to release 2NE1′s new album within this month. However, because there were so many good songs and [because they are putting their hearts and souls into this album], the release period has been delayed.”
The representative went on, “Currently, 2NE1 is planned to return to the music world with their new album in mid-July. As the 2NE1 members are absorbed in album preparations these days, it’ll be appreciated if you take a lot of interest in [the upcoming album],” making it clear that the group was delaying their comeback due to album production and not to avoid competition with other groups.
2NE1′s comeback in June was recently voted as the most anticipated comeback by netizens. Though their comeback has been delayed, the members have expressed that they won’t let their fans down when it comes to their upcoming promotions.
This July will mark one year since 2NE1 has released a new album. Their solo concert in July is reported to go on as planned.

I seriously cannot wait for 2NE1′s comeback! I can’t wait to see what 2NE1 has in store for us this time. I hope YG would release teasers soon! ^_^
Top girl groups 2NE1, Wonder Girls, and f(x) have each announced their respective June comebacks.
All three teams are the representative girl groups of the ‘Big 3′ agencies YG Entertainment, JYP Entertainment, and SM Entertainment. The three teams have claimed numerous #1 victories on various music programs with each new release, and their comebacks are expected to turn the K-Pop industry into a warzone.
The Wonder Girls were the ones to strike first among the three by releasing their new title song “Like This” along with the accompanying MV.
“Like This” is a song written and composed by JYP Entertainment founder J.Y. Park, and contains an easy and upbeat hip hop rhythm with repetitive lyrics that make it simple to sing along to. Fans are responding positively to the girls’ new mature appearance and the exciting new song.
“Like This” was released the same day as Big Bang‘s “Monster“, and it has been a close fight between the two to maintain the #1 spot on music charts. Wonder Girls’ subtracks have also ranked high on the charts, captivating the ears of fans everywhere. Furthermore, the “Like This” MV received over 1 million views on YouTube in just a single day. Because the girls have until now received attention for their fresh, catchy songs and infectious dances moves, anticipation is rising for their broadcast promotions. Wonder Girls will be officially kicking off their comeback activities with performances on various music programs this week.
f(x) will also be making their respective comeback.
SM Entertainment reported on June 5th, “f(x) will be releasing their new mini-album ‘Electric Shock‘ all over the world through Itunes and various music sites on June 10th.”
This is the first album to be released by f(x) in a year since the group became one of the hottest girl groups after earning #1 wins with “Hot Summer” and “Pinocchio” last summer.
With each new album release, f(x) has consistently been acknowledged for their experimental and unique musical style, and expectations for this new release continue to rise as each of the five girls are determined to display their individuality, fresh new music, and upgraded performances.
For five days starting on June 6th, f(x) will be releasing teaser images of each of the members via their official homepage and Facebook pages to reveal their new concept.
Finally, YG Entertainment has also announced 2NE1′s June comeback, but not a lot of information regarding their return has been reported.
Like f(x), this is 2NE1′s first release in a year after dropping “I Am The Best” last June.
2NE1 won the hearts and minds of their fans immediately after their K-Pop debut, and the girls are causing their fans to go wild with news of their comeback alone. In a recent poll, 2NE1′s comeback was voted as the one fans are most looking forward to, proving the girls’ influence.
YG Entertainment is choosing to remain silent on the form and concept of 2NE1′s new album, as well as the exact date of their return. All that’s known so far is that the girls have worked on this new album with their exclusive producer Teddy Park, and that they are deciding which track should be their title song.
2NE1′s exact comeback dates have not been reported, however, they are expected to drop their new album towards the middle of June, which means they will be directly competing head-on with Wonder Girls and f(x).
2NE1, f(x), Wonder Girls… the sound of their names alone cause fans hearts to flutter a mile a minute. All three teams have shown amazing musical development and transformation with each new album, and the industry is already excited to see how they will captivate their fans this time around.

Weeee! Two of 2NE1 songs made it to the list! ^_^ Yey for their upcoming comeback this June! The whole world is ready for 2NE1! ^^
From lapsed ’90s metalheads to the glossiest girls of today’s generation, the best of the sublimely shiny sound that’s sweeping the world
Twenty years after its birth, Korean pop music has made its way from Seoul to Singapore to San Antonio to São Paulo and back again, “outbubbling” — as SPIN’s Chuck Eddy phrased it last year — its Western counterpart by tweaking and perfecting the formula on which both have long been based. It’s music that demands to be mainlined (hooks come sharper, choruses larger, visuals brighter), its gloss equaled only by the aggressiveness with which it’s been delivered to the international marketplace in recent years. By now, K-pop’s catalog of classics is deep enough to warrant a best-of list of its own, one we’ve assembled with our ears pointed to both past and present: The 21 Greatest K-Pop Songs of All Time, a singles wrecking crew whose final, odd-numbered tally is a loving tribute to one of the current moment’s most beloved girl groups, 2NE1.
21. SoolJ feat. Suh Ga Young – “Waiting 4 U” (2011)
20. Shinee – “Lucifer” (2010)
19. TVXQ – “Doshite Kimi o Suki ni Natte Shimattandaro” (2008)
18. Wonder Girls – “Be My Baby” (2011)
17. IU – “Boo” (2009)
16. T-Ara – “Roly Poly” (2011)
15. Super Junior – “Sorry Sorry” (2009)
14. Kara – “Step” (2011)
13. Big Bang – “Bad Boy” (2012)
12. f(x) – “Nu Abo” (2010)
11. Girls Generation – “Run Devil Run” (2010)
10. E.via – “Pick Up! U!” (2010)
9. 2NE1 – “Ugly” (2011)
Though “Ugly” scans like aggressive homage (or a rip, if you’d like) to TLC’s 1996 body-image breakdown “Unpretty,” its impact is more akin to the world-beating bubble-grunge of Kelly Clarkson’s “Since You’ve Been Gone.” Loud and brash, tender yet heroic, it encapsulates just about everything that’s so immediate about the 2NE1 crew. And on the strength of CL’s volcanic vocals, the four unleash here what’s arguably the most ferocious chorus in K-pop history.
8. Norazo – “Curry” (2010)
7. GD&TOP – “High High” (2010)
6. BoA – “Eat You Up” (2008)
5. SNSD – “Gee” (2009)
4. Seo Taiji & Boys – “Nan Arayo (I Know)” (1992)
3. 2NE1 – “I Am the Best” (2011)
“I Am the Best” might’ve been the best single released on the planet in 2011, even if not for its apocalyptic/futuristic video that kicks off on a catwalk and escalates into straightjackets, train-track break-dancing, ice cream cone rabbit-ear hats, and devil-horned hairstyles well before the aluminum bats and machine guns come out so 2NE1 can smash and shoot up the place. The stomping title hook sounds like “Neh-guh-ché Challa-GAH”; other big nonsense hook is the machine-gunned “bum-ratta-TATTA ta-tatta tah-tah.” Then there’s the froggie-reggae dancehall (“hot-hot-hot-hot FI-ya”) and Alice Cooper (“billion dollar baby”) references. Lyric plot: Hitting the city, taking no shit. World-class throat: CL.
2. HyunA – “Bubble Pop!” (2011)
1. H.O.T. – “Candy” (1996)

YG Entertainment “core pillars” Big Bang and 2NE1 would be making simultaneous comebacks. Fans as well as the entertainment industry, are all showing a growing sense of interest in this.
On the 29th, YG CEO Yang Hyun Suk, told E-Daily “Star In E” that “On June 3 and June 6, Big Bang’s new song would be released, directly following after that is 2NE1′s new album, which is confirmed for a June release also,” he said.
The Big Bang special edition album, “Still Alive” will feature five new songs in addition to title track, “Monster.”
The album will also include the songs from Big Bang’s 5th Mini Album, “Alive.“ Currently, it seems that the group would not be holding any kind of promotional activities for the new album, as Big Bang would be focusing more on its world tour and concerts in Japan.
2NE1 fans would also be able to quench their thirst. Currently, 2NE1, along with exclusive producer Teddy, has completed seven songs. 2NE1 is still in deep discussion as to which one of three songs out of the current finished songs, would be chosen to be the title song. When the album would be released, the group is expected to be active in promotional activities, as well as other broadcasts. It has not been determined yet as to whether this new album would be a full album or a mini album.
Yang Hyun Suk said, “There’s more unity amongst the Big Bang and 2NE1 members now since their debut, so they are giving the best music that they could offer,” he also added, “I personally think that I would give both groups 100 points out of 100 points for their new songs,” he said, showing his confidence.
Yang Hyun Suk also followed with, “In particular, my mind is at ease with 2NE1. 2NE1 always does well when they release new songs. Their fashion in addition to their skills, have made them a group which already has recognition. Their comeback is something to look forward to,” he finished.

SBS Strong Heart is preparing for a YG special.
On the 22nd, a related person from SBS said, “On the 15th March, at Strong Heart, ‘YG special’ where all the singers from YG entertainment will appear will be filmed. The production team are having meetings about various concepts such as Psy being the MC.”
15th March is the date of the last recording of the current MC of Strong Heart, Lee Seung Gi. Lee Seung Gi is leaving the show in order to concentrate on his acting and singing activities.
SBS has been generous to YG artists. In 2010, when 2ne1 made a comeback on Inkigayo, for the first time ever, they performed 3 songs. In addition, in February 2011 when Big Bang made a comeback, a program called ‘Big Bang show’ was made. Yang Hyun Suk is also active on SBS Kpop Star at the moment.
Big Bang, who is about to make a comeback in March were invited as guests on ‘Healing Camp’ on the 20th, where they were able to explain about their recent problems and they have also recorded ‘Running Man’.
As if to repay SBS, Se7en who has recently come out with a new song, and Big Bang, have released their MVs firstly on Strong Heart. Because of the relationship of SBS and YG, many are curious how this Strong Heart YG special will be like.
However, because the last recording date for Lee Seung Gi was decided quite suddenly, it is possible that the schedule of the YG special might be changed.

According to additional information, the filming will be on March 15 while it will be aired on April 3! Are we all excited? Big Bang’s attendance is confirmed while it is still unclear whether 2NE1, YG, Se7en and the others will.
Because of such news, YG Special trended on twitter, worldwide!
