2NE1’s Sandara Park Surpasses ‘One Million’ Followers On Instagram

Sandara Park is making a name for herself outside 2NE1.

The member of popular K-Pop girl group 2NE1 recently surpassed one million followers on Instagram, which has been giving fans a glimpse of Park’s life as a part of the idol group.

The pictures on the singer’s Instagram account show her hanging out with her fellow group members Bom, Minzy and CL along with her fashionable outfits.

Sandara, also known as Dara, visited the Philippines with 2NE1 on May 14 for their world tour concert, which wrapped on May 17.

The 29-year-old singer documented the fun times she was having with her band mates on her Instagram account. She posted a picture of when the girls headed to Tagatay to unwind after their successful concert.

In one of the photos, Sandara Park is wearing a red crop top that displays her stomach with the caption, “It is summer now. Photo by CL.”

The girls performed their hit singles from their second album, including “Crush,” at the Mall of Asia Arena.

They also made sure to perform previous singles for their long-time fans including “Fire,” “Pretty Boy,” and “Clap,” singing a total of eighteen songs on the night of their performance.

Sandara has her own fan base in the Philippines because she had lived there when she was young and started her career there after becoming a runner up on “Star Circle Quest” back in 2004.

During her recent visit, the singer made several appearances on television shows, including “Aquino & Abunda” and “Gandang Gabi Voice,” where she spoke of how 2NE1 differs from the other K-Pop girl groups. She even made a surprise visit to “It’s Showtime” and “Pinoy Big Brother House,” according to Manila Standard Today.

“I think 2NE1 is different from other K-Pop girl groups regarding music. All four of us have very different taste and character. One would wonder how four individuals with such different voice, style, taste and personality could act together as a group. However, when those four very different voices comes together, 2NE1’s music becomes complete,” stated Sandara Park.

2NE1 will be holding their next concert at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on May 24.

News: What Sandara Park Misses About Pinoy Fans

What Sandara Park misses about Pinoy fans

MANILA — She may be an international star but Korean singer Sandara Park admitted that she still often looks back at her early years as a showbiz upstart in the Philippines.

The 30-year-old, who is one fourth of the Korean girl group 2NE1, started her career as a performer when she joined the ABS-CBN talent search program Star Circle Quest.

“Nami-miss ko ‘yan sobra dahil dyan ako nagsimula,” she said in an interview on “Pinoy Big Brother” on Thursday, as she looked back on her music videos and her numerous appearances in local television and movies.

“Siyempre ‘yung moment ko with the fans, ‘yung sigawan nila ang nami-miss ko din,” she added.

Park is in the country for 2NE1’s “All or Nothing” tour, which will be held at the Mall of Asia Arena this weekend. Other members of the group are expected to arrive in the Philippines on Friday, according to Park.

Asked about what makes Filipino fans different, she said: “Lahat ng fans namin pareho. Laging sobrang mainit ‘yung sigawan nila.”

In an earlier interview on “Aquino & Abunda Tonight,” Park admitted that she watches movies produced in the country whenever she misses the Philippines, citing the Vice Ganda-starrer “This Guy’s in Love with U Mare,” which she said was really funny.

Still at the top

During her guesting for the afternoon recap show of the reality television show, the official hashtag #uberSANDARA topped worldwide trends.

Her guest appearance on “It’s Showtime” early in the afternoon and other terms related to the star were also among the most tweeted, locally.

Park, who once entered the Big Brother house during the show’s previous celebrity edition, pleaded to “Kuya” to let her out this time around.

Host and actor John Prats recalled the time when Park was forced to stay inside the house for more than a day as a celebrity house guest because she failed the show’s challenge.

“Sana makalabas ako!” Park said.

Her appearance inside the Big Brother house will be shown later on the primetime telecast of reality television show, after “Aquino & Abunda Tonight.”
