Article: Japanese Comedians Get Down on their Knees for 2NE1

2NE1 get treated like goddesses on a recent Japanese program.

On May 14, Nihon TV’s popular program, Shabekuri 007 invited 2NE1 as its guests.

Comedian, Arita Teppei, who observes K-Pop stars, introduced 2NE1 members saying, “They are part of Korea’s best hip-hop girl group, who are also receiving a lot of attention in the United States.”

He continued to show that he was fan by saying, “I’ve been to three of 2NE1’s concerts. Instead of cheering them on, I’ve always wanted to work with them.”

He then asked 2NE1 if there was anything the group needed and pretended to go buy things, gathering laughter from the audience.

But what particularly stood out was that Arita Teppei said that when watching 2NE1’s performances, they must get down on their knees, urging his colleagues to do the deed. They later followed it up with bowing to 2NE1. Arita Teppei continued to compliment 2NE1, saying that paying 3,000,000 won to see 2NE1’s performance is completely worth it.

Usually on this show, the hosts put the guests on the spot, by forcing them to present some unique talents or dancing, so to see the hosts on the floor on their knees was a rare sight to witness.

When 2NE1 sang, I Am the Best, the Japanese audience members surprisingly sang along the Korean lyrics, confirming 2NE1’s popularity in Japan.

On this day, Gong Minzy and CL showcased their sexy dancing, and Sandara Park brightly announced that she was the spokesperson for the group, handing out cards to everyone in the studio. 

Meanwhile, 2NE1 plans on returning to Korea’s stage with a new album sometime in May.
