2NE1 releases ‘FALLING IN LOVE’ July 8 – casting a love spell

2NE1 once again proved themselves one of the strongest competitors back in the music world this summer when the new song ‘FALLING IN LOVE’ swept across 9 different music charts.

FALLING IN LOVE’, released on July 8 at 0 a.m., currently (8 a.m. July 8) ranks #1 on real time music charts including Melon, Mnet, Olleh, Soribada, Bugs, Daum, Naver, Cyworld and Monkey 3.

What’s more, 2NE1’s music video for the new song is arousing deep interest for the members’ alluring eyes and gestures. The four members show off their charm playing barefoot at the beach, while they also leave the watchers awe-struck with their glamour in an ancient-image background filled with golden décor.

The youngest member, Minzy, who celebrates her 20th birthday this year, surprised the fans with her womanly beauty in her hair that is dyed in a spectrum of pink.

Apart from the stunning four members, model and actor Hong Jong-hyun and Lee Soo-hyuk play another role in doubling the excitement of the music video with their fierce but attention grabbing looks.

2NE1 came back after one long year with the new song ‘FALLING IN LOVE’, which has a hint of reggae and pop. The repetitive lyrics ‘Touch me over here/Touch me over there’ and ‘I keep falling in love/falling in love’ are simply addictive, like casting a love spell.

2NE1, for this new reggae comeback song with a comfortable and slow beat, has put aside their usual strong charisma. Starting from July and ending in October, 2NE1 will be releasing one song a month. ‘FALLING IN LOVE’ has successfully kicked off the 4-month journey, already differentiating 2NE1 from all the other artists.

[enews24 손보경 기자] On July 11, 2NE1’s performance of the new song ‘FALLING IN LOVE’ will be unveiled for the first time on Mnet’s M Countdown.

On July 7, YG Entertainment announced, “The first comeback performance of ‘FALLING IN LOVE’ will be revealed on M Countdown.”

Initially, 2NE1 was scheduled to perform on Inkigayo in the evening of July 7 before releasing their song. But due to Asiana’s plane crash at San Francisco’s international airport, the television broadcasting system inevitably had to cancel the show.

Thus 2NE1’s music video and the actual song, ‘FALLING IN LOVE’, will become available to listen on July 8 at 0 a.m. This will quench the thirst of the long-awaited fans.

2NE1’s last song ‘I LOVE YOU’, a mix of electronic and trot, attracted much attention when it was revealed last July. And they are returning after one long year with ‘FALLING IN LOVE,’ a reggae song – a style that has not yet been tried by the group. However, it is already expected to sweep across the music world this summer again.

2NE1’s teaser image of the upcoming song features very cool and fresh summer looks of each member. Another teaser image that captures them as Egyptian goddesses are building up curiosity as well.

The song, which will be unveiled before their comeback performance, is keeping music lovers very excited. Fans are thrilled to see what kind of wonders 2NE1 would do this time with their performance on July 11.

2NE1 has swept through all nine Korean music charts with their new reggae song, succeeding in their genre breaking once again.

2NE1 returned after a year with their new song “Falling in Love,” made public on July 8 at 12 a.m., once again finding mass appeal with reggae.

Falling in Love” took first place in Korea’s top music site Melon the instant it was released, and swept all nine charts in the commuting hours of the morning. 2NE1 has managed to expand their musical genres to include reggae.

2NE1 had previously succeeded in breaking down genres with their digital single “I Love You” in July of last year. “I Love You” was the first trot music added to dance music that was attempted by 2NE1. The song had a long run in first place and established 2NE1 as one of the top girl groups in Korea.

Listeners are paying attention to 2NE1‘s musicality following the group’s successive hits in trot music and reggae. The girl group’s second successive genre-breaking is an expression of “confidence” and an unrivaled “distinction” from an overflow of girl groups.

 2NE1 will have its first comeback performance with “Falling in Love” in M.net’s M!Countdown on July 11. Viewers will be watching to see what kind of performance the group will have with the fresh new look it showed in the music video.
