Comments on: "YG Family: BIGBANG, 2NE1, Gummy & Se7en have been selected as candidates for Mnet Legend Artist TOP 20!" (5)
Based on the criteria(?), 2NE1 really should be called as legend too but sorry, I still call them as newbie since they’re only 1 year old. And I don’t want people to judge them(in a bad way- bias or so).
But woah! Being one of the candidates just proves that 2NE1 isn’t just the normal girl group you’ll find in Korea. that although many girl groups have entered the music industry, 2NE1 is one the bests (they are the best for me). But seriously, I want BigBang to get the number 1 spot in there and 2NE1 to be atleast in top 5 or 10. n__n
I forgot to congratulate all of them. YG Family ftw!
go, yg fam! 🙂
Legend artist??? 2NE1??? A year old group, already a legend???
Wow!!… I am confused…
i think yg family is on top 5 as the voting is still on going. bigbang, 2ne1, gummy, se7en and 1tym 🙂 kewl right?
