A single-file line snaked back and forth just inside Prudential Center in New Jersey, jamming the will call room with predominately Asian but hard-to-typecast fans, some in their twenties coming straight from the office, some in bedazzled surgical masks and holding cardboard cutouts. Behind me in line, a teenager asked his impatient mother if she remembered to buy kitty litter. When the doors to the venue opened 90 minutes late, a security guard inundated with nervous questions told everyone, “This is on 2NE1. We have concerts here all the time and it’s never this late… Never! Ever! We’re just like you: mystified.”
For the overwhelming majority in attendance, this was their first time seeing 2NE1, the four-girl Korean pop group crowned last year by MTV Iggy “Best New Band in the World.” In New Jersey, their two-hour performance worked to both dull some of the shine of being internet stars from across the ocean, and to solidify their position—even without the digital mystique—as powerful, well-rounded artists. When the stage’s enormous scrim finally fell and 2NE1′s 50-million YouTube hitter “I Am the Best” blared, CL, Bom, Dara and Minzy sang and danced inexhaustibly atop individual platforms wheeled by pairs of buff men. CL, the group’s best English speaker, shouted an introduction: “Tonight I’m gonna make the show worth the wait, because I’m about to go craaazaayyy!” Hundreds of feet above the stage, championship banners for the New Jersey Devils hockey team fluttered in time.
Gorgeous! ^_^ Our Ssantokki is gorgeous! Even with these unedited shots, you can see how glorious her skin and smile is! In fact, she is beautiful from head to toe! ^^

After being crowned MTV Iggy’s Best New Band last December in New York City, CL, Dara, Park Bom, and Minzy of 2NE1 have returned to the states for their New Evolution tour. They’ve become the first K-pop girl group to hold a headlining world tour, and the two-stop American leg of New Evolution kicked off in Newark’s Prudential Center last Friday.
The girls truly had a super packed schedule! They had photoshoots and interviews left and right. Here are some behind the scene shots of 2NE1 for Music Choice.

Last Friday night, Jacky and I headed out to the Prudential Center in Newark for 2NE1, a Korean-pop group whose fan following is not only unrivaled in Asia but is also gaining unbelievable traction in the rest of the world. The stadium was packed with several thousand people who waited for hours in anticipation of 2NE1’s first US show for their New Evolutiontour.
And honestly, the performance was WELL worth the wait. This group of 4 super-cute, energetic girls (CL, Dara, Minzy, and Bom) put on a fantastic two-hour performance, filled with neon colors, confetti, laser lights, fog and smoke, huge TV projections, and a whole host of other visually arresting goodies. With each song, the audience went utterly mental with excitement––everyone was singing/rapping along, bopping their heads, and dancing away while waving fluorescent fanlights in the shape of wings.
If the night had ended there, we would’ve walked away pretty satisfied. But fortunately for us, we had the very awesome chance to go backstage to meet the girls. Needless to say, we could barely contain ourselves. Check out our photos below!!
