[NEWS][TRANSLATION] 2NE1 Exclusive Interview (Additional Information)

2NE1 gives off a good sense of play when on stage. Is this the result of practice?

– Our appearance is not usually like that. Normally, we are very quiet in nature, but when we go on stage, our playing comes out. It’s just natural that our repressed emotions come out when a potential chance comes.

What do you think about the fact that you are enjoying great popularity because of your skills and style?

– It’s natural. But with only the four of us, we can’t achieve it. We got more popular because of our good music and refined styling. We get to be around and meet lots of people, including producers and stylists. They give us a good wrap.

There are many sexy girl groups. Does 2NE1 not want to be sexy?

– Different standards. We try to do different things our way. Songs like “Fire” are strong, while “I Don’t Care” was a pretty song. While for “Can’t Nobody” the concept was sexy. People just have different concepts for what is hot. Honestly, we ran this race with almost no feminine clothing. If we do that, we think that our confidence would vanish. We’re more comfortable with pants. Of course, with one exception of someone who has beautiful legs, Bom.

News: Go behind-the-scenes with 2NE1 as they prepare for their comeback next month

Sports Chosun was recently granted exclusive access into the YG Entertainment building in order get a sneak peek at 2NE1’s preparations for their comeback next month!

Their interview kicked off in the basement, where the girls stretched and synced their choreography in a rehearsal room surrounded by mirrors.  Shortly afterwards, the members laughed as they exclaimed, “Our dancing isn’t in sync, right?  It’s so different!”

CL explained, “We want to be like the other groups and sync our fingers and toes, but it doesn’t work like that on stage for us.  We just let everything go when we get up there and lend our bodies to the music.  It’s not that we do it on purpose.”

Bom added, “Even our choreographer doesn’t come up with anything until he listens to our music with us.  He comes up with ideas naturally, so our individuality fits right in.”

Later, the girls moved to their recording room, and they reminisced back to the time when they first entered the room. Bom revealed, “I remember that all four of us sat like this on the sofa.  We were rookies, so we didn’t dare lean back either; at the time, recording was a very tiring process.”

Regarding their album preparations, which is scheduled for release next month, the girls revealed, “We currently have one track finished.  We’ll probably have to live in the recording room for now.”

Finally, the interview led to their training area, where their personal trainer revealed that the members receive training specific to their needs. At the mention of how Bom usually headlines for her weight, she explained, “When I first saw the reports, I wondered to myself why such reports were being made since I didn’t think I was that fat.  I was a bit surprised at first, but I became more determined to overcome it with my own skills (laughter).”
