All of us have the same sentiments. They are doing great in digital sales but yeah sns points are down and I don’t even know why. Hope that they would get the recognition they deserve.
Huh. That sure changes everything. I thought the digital points has bigger percentage than that SNS points or something. Oh well. At the end of the day, it’s just a popularity contest. I hope 2ne1 will get the recognition they ACTUALLY deserve.
@desiweelovesapples
i think the results from award shows are rigged. 2NE1 would be leading in all of the digital points but the SNS, preference scores..etc can be manipulated. The system is unfair but we can’t really do anything about it except pointing it out again and again.
I find it very weird how their achievements and chart-topping songs are contradicting their standings on live music shows. I’m not bitter about it or anything but I’m just really confused as to how the nominees are being judged. Please enlighten me Daralings.
What great news! I hope to see more of Dara on TV!!!! Or more seca with other celebrities!!
Congrats 2ne1!:)
They are winning in Korea which is just so awesome. Here in the world they are doing great too. Congratulations 2NE1, the sky is the limit for you!
Wow, it is so nice to read these news. I really love 2ne1 most specially Dara of course. We know that she is getting better and better.
