Article: AsiaOne’s The New Paper – Dara is Kpop’s… “Hayley Williams” ~ Agree or Disagree?

Seoul sisters: 2NE1’s similarities with Western pop’s biggest stars

Bp2DJqBCQAAtVrJ

DARA IS K-POP’S…

HAYLEY WILLIAMS

How similar are they? Both ooze spunk.

2NE1‘s prettiest and most bubbly member Dara is one of the main reasons why these girls’ shows are filled with electrifying energy and boundless, mind-blowing fun.

Like how Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams is the perennial livewire of the US pop punk band, Dara never fails to light up the group’s performances. At 2NE1‘s last concert here in December 2012, she spontaneously pulled a hapless guy from the audience up on stage and kissed him on the cheek.

Williams, 25, is no stranger to doing things on the fly too. Back in 2010, during Paramore’s Honda Civic Tour in Phoenix, she reprimanded a boy in front of the entire audience when he kissed her without permission – after he was invited to do a sing-along with her.

“Don’t kiss me…That’s disgusting,” she scolded him.

Of course, Dara and Williams also grab attention with their flashy tresses. Redhead Williams likes having pink and green streaks in her hair, while Dara has changed her hair colour so many times we’ve lost count. Platinum blonde, bright blue, purple, auburn – you name it, she’s sported it.

Comments from netizens, as translated by Blackjack Table:

1. [+3,400, -55] She seriously has a baby-face and if you remove skin condition and what not and just look at her face, she looks 10 years younger…

2. [+2,550, -38] You’re already living like 10 years younger , how much more if..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ She’s always working so hard and I like seeing it.

3. [+2,293, -50] 10 years later, she’ll still have that face

4. [+2,245, -187] She’s really pretty, personally, I think that if you really look at female idols’ face, they probably are the size of 5 fingers

5. [+1,627, -57] Already 10 years.?. 2NE1 is really cool. Please be active for a long time and give us more good music♥

6. [+202, -4] What is age when looking at her.. jealous..

7. [+176, -5] She’s too pretty….

8. [+162, -5] Sandara Park really has a baby-faceㅠ pretty

9. [+152, -4] Sandara-unni is really charming and kindㅎㅎ Congratulations on your 10th anniversary~~~

10. [+150, -5] So pretty and that baby-face. Unni is 4 years older than me but how can she look like a high school student? Surprised when I saw her apple hair.

11. [+148, -12] She’s a natural beauty so it’s even better~

12. [+134, -5] Sandara Park really has a baby-face… jealous…

13. [+129, -6] When you compare her beauty to other idols, no doubt she’s the winner…

14. [+116, -2] But you’re already living 10 years younger….

15. [+120, -7] Right now, she looks 21 yrs old…

16. [+107, -1] She’s 60 divided by 2 but that face…..ㄷㄷㄷㄷ

17. [+106, -2] She’s pretty, impossible to rebutt

18. [+106, -3] Dara-ya, congrats. Let’s be together forever♥

19. [+101, -4] Talking about having baby-face is only possible because she’s Sandara Parkㅋㅋ

20. [+101, -5] Pretty, I acknowledge that she’s natural~

21. [+67, -3] Nowadays, middle and high school students wear make up and Sandara Park looks younger than themㅋㅋㅋ kids these days look like gyarus

22. [+57, -0] Sandara Park… really has a baby-face.. when they debuted, at first, I thought she was the youngestㅋㅋㅋㅋ

23. [+57, -1] The importance of styling is that she looks 10 years younger now

24. [+56, -1] I think 2NE1 is an idol group that breaks the age stereotype, when they debuted, there were groups who were in teenage years and 20s but they never waver but they continue to work hard, a company that makes singers like this ㄷㄷㄷ

(There’s like 3 comments that again say “baby-face” so I’ll be skipping that LOL)

25. [+48, -2] Sandara Park is really kind so I wish that she meets a kind man~ I’m worried that she’ll meet a weird guyㅋㅋ In the next 10 years, please continue to become the vitamin to your fans~

Article: SOKOREAL – “2NE1 Sets Jakarta on Fire with ‘All Or Nothing’ Concert”

[INDONESIA] 2NE1 sets Jakarta on fire with ‘All Or Nothing’ concert

DPP_0012

June 8th, 2014 – The night Indonesian Blackjacks have been waiting for five solid years finally came. For the very first time, four-membered group 2NE1 set foot in Jakarta for their second World Tour, ‘AON: All Or Nothing’. 2NE1 members CL, Dara, Bom, and Minzy thoroughly went all or nothing through the concert’s four main segments, which were represented by the colors pink, white, red, and black.

DPP_0006

2NE1 kicked off with a track from their latest album ‘Crush’ which instantly earned them a huge wave of cheers. They didn’t allow the high energy to wane the slightest as they continued to pump up the excitement with songs ‘Fire’ and ‘Clap Your Hands’. The image for the concert’s first segment, Pink for fierceness, was definitely shown during the next song ‘Pretty Boy’. In the midst of the performance, a huge battle tank model emerged and the girls got in to take a laser gun each, shooting the crowd with green lights which, if anything, attracted louder screams.

Turning the atmosphere around, 2NE1 then gracefully showed up on hanging swings in white attire to perform ‘Missing You’. The song was then followed by a chain of more ballads, ‘If I Were You’, ‘Come Back Home (Unplugged Version)’, and‘Ugly’ for the White segment of the concert.

Enough with the slow pace, 2NE1 then came back again full force with more energetic songs. This time though, the songs are all conveying the message of love and are complemented with sexier choreographies. The highlight was during ‘I Love You’when the members of 2NE1, accompanied by male back dancers, each performed a short solo dance.

DPP_0043

Despite the fierceness they’ve shown during their performances, 2NE1 couldn’t help showing their cute sides during the ment. Dara said “I really want to go to Bali” and when Minzy asked “with who?”, she innocently replied “with my future boyfriend”,which caused the fans to go wild. Bom also multiplied the screams by tenfolds when she said “Do you guys love our songs? And do you guys love me? I love you too!”. Unfortunately, leader CL was absent from the ment as she was preparing for her solo stage. It was all dearly paid though, as she totally owned the stage with her solo songs, ‘The Baddest Female’ and‘MTBD’.

The concert is slowly reaching its peak. Next songs were the group’s most popular hits. On top of everything  else was ‘I Am The Best’ which was performed on motorbikes. Not only did they got the fans screaming along to the lyrics they knew by heart, the whole crowd also jumped and danced all through the song.

“I’ll never forget tonight. I don’t know why it took us so long to come here.” said CL, which was followed by Minzy’s assurance that they’ll be back again as soon as possible. Sooner than everyone wanted to, the concert was coming to and end. The last two songs were rock version of ‘I Don’t Care’ and ‘Go Away’, which kept up the atmosphere high until the very last.

Not long after 2NE1 bowed their thanks and exited the stage, fans started chanting “We want more!” which earned them more songs for encore. During ‘Lonely’, 2NE1 showed how eager they were to get closer to their fans by visiting the Festival and Gold class to shake hands with fans. It seemed as if Indonesian fans left them such good memories that Dara said “I love you guys as much as Nasi Goreng (fried rice), and Indonesia is totally one of my favorite countries!” and CL said “This is the best first impression I’ve ever got.”

As if fatigue was nothing, 2NE1 then performed two more upbeat songs, “Gotta Be You” and “Can’t Nobody”. But unfortunately this time, it really was the end. Each members bowed and waved their goodbyes, then took their leave.

DPP_0055

Without doubt, 2NE1 have secured a position in everyone’s heart not only as an ordinary idol group, but as true performers who went 200% on stage. Always, it’s all or nothing.
