Daraaaaa! Seriously, a wonder to watch! She’s just so so so spot-on with her expressions, but she remembers to slip smiles throughout the perf, so look forward to seeing them shine bright.. ^_^

Here’s 2NE1’s interview on Billboard, for those who can’t view the video as is! ❤ Enjoy you guys! Transcription of the vid is here too.. ^_^

2NE1: Hi we’re 2NE1 and you’re watching Billboard.
Billboard: Please introduce your new album “Crush”.
CL: It’s our first album in four years. It feels great to be able to come back to everyone with a new album like this.
Billboard: “Crush” broke the record for highest-charting and best one-week sales for a Kpop album on The Billboard 200. What was your reaction?
CL: It felt so great. To be honest, we prepared for this album for so long so that it felt like a surprise gift and we think it was a perfect way to start off (our promotion). Thank you.
Billboard: Do you have any plans to release a music video for any other tracks aside from “Come Back Home” and “Happy”?
DARA: Is it a secret? Well, it’s not a secret. We do have plans. I believe it’ll be released soon.
CL: To be honest, we already filmed it.
DARA: Yes, we secretly filmed it.
Billboard: When?
CL: We’re also curious.
Billboard: You just began your tour. Do you plan on going to any other countries outside of Asia? What are some new aspects we can look forward to on this tour?
CL: We started our tour in Asia, but honestly, we’re not sure what’s going to happen. We are trying our best to go see our fans in various countries, but as of now, I don’t think we can release any concrete details.
CL: If given the chance, we would to go everywhere, right?
DARA: Right, we want to go see everyone.
CL: I think this tour is great, becase we get to perform all our new songs.
Billboard: It’s now been five years since 2NE1 has been together. How does this feel?
2NE1: Yay!
CL: There’s not that many days left, right? (so they filmed this interview before their anniversary, before AON in Manila)
MINZY: It’s really been 5 years. I was in middle school when we debuted.
BOM: Seriously. It still feels like we’re rookies. It feels so weird hearing it’s our fifth year.
Billboard: What are some of your top, most memorable moments in the past five years?
DARA: There are so many, but I think my most memorable moment is the day we debuted with “Fire.” I still can’t forget how nervous I was at that moment.
BOM: I was so nervous, and shaking way too much, so I don’t really remember our debut stage.
BOM: Honestly, I think I really remember when we won the “Best Song of the Year” award.
MINZY: I remember crying a lot when we won the “Best Song of the Year with “Fire.”
CL: I’m not too sure, because I’m bad at remembering everything. I have a short memory span.
DARA: This moment right now.
CL: Yes, I believe I’ll remember this moment the most.
Billboard: You have so many great music videos throughout the year. What is each member’s favorite music video?
CL: Favorite and memorable are different though!
BOM: The video I remember the most would have to be “Fire.” We had such a hard time shooting since it was our first time, so when we look back at it now, it’s awkward and funny. Even when I watch it now, it still feels very fresh, so it’s very memorable. I think I have to think about the video I like.
MINZY: For me, the video I remember the most is “Can’t Nobody.” We filmed it for a week. The music video I like the most is “I Am The Best.”
DARA: This is hard. We were isolated while we were filming “Can’t Nobody” and “I Am The Best” for a week, but the end result was so great that they remain in my memory. But the music video I like the best is still “Fire-Street Version.”
DARA: When will I get to see myself like that again?
CL: Your own self?
DARA: Stuff like this. Hip-hop Dara.
CL: This is going to be shown in the States. Is that okay? They’re going to curse you.
DARA: No! My fresh and give-it-all attitude was memorable and seemed nice.
CL: I think I like our “Ugly” music video.
MINZY: The video you remember most?
CL: The video I remember the most is our Japanese version of “Crush,” which we filmed yesterday. It’s still fresh in my memory.
Billboard: Billbaord readers recently named “Crush” the best girl group album ever and most fashionable girl group. You beat out competition from groups like Destiny’s Child, Little Mix, and the Spice Girls. What is your reaction to these wins?
CL: I don’t know if we can compare ourselves to legendary artists from 10 years ago, but we really like and respect all the groups that were on the list. There are so many legendary artists that we feel blessed.
Billboard: What are your plans for the rest of 2014?
CL: This year? Well to be honest, half of 2014 has already by, and our Korean promotions have ended. Our tour will continue, and welook forward to putting out more new music for everyone to listen to.
Billboard: Message to your fans.
CL: To all the 2NE1 fans all over the world, thank you for always waiting for us and loving our music. We hope to see all of you often and up close! Please look forward to it!

2NE1 rocked, as usual! Blackjacks in Malaysia who were able to join the concert were really in for a wonderful time! ❤
Dara and CL did not perform their full lap dance.. Again, I think they were doing this in respect to the more conservative culture of Malaysia.. ❤
More and more and moreeeee fancams after the cut!
Anddddd yes! There’s a dance version Music Video! WOOHOO! Is it weird that I prefer this over the other two? XD 2NE1 having fun and dancing together and the hot male dancers sold me out! XD The meaning of the lyrics of the song suit the isolated, sad-ish vibe of the 2 other music videos, but the song is just so upbeat that somehow, I feel that this suits it more? ^_^ Besides, the girls’ smiles are precious.. ❤ Anyways, yaaayyyy for THREE music videos for “Gotta Be You” XD

Okaaayyy, so apparently, this is a Director’s Cut or something, available on Naver? Kekeke! A bit confused here.. But it’s fine, more 2NE1! Did YG perhaps see the comments on YouTube about “Gotta Be You” MV? XD And it seems that they added Ash Stymest’s (the male model) and CL’s carwash scenes on another shoot? But, like I said, yay for another MV! Kekekeke! The camera seems unfocused-ish though? And the general video looks unpolished..XD But we get to see more of white-haired Dara, so no complaints here! ^^ Her expressions are spot on and she’s just soooo pretty to look at.. ❤

The Music Video is here! It doesn’t have a storyline like “Come Back Home,” but it has its merits. ^^ The girls didn’t change outfits, so it’s pretty much one-dimensional. ^^ It’s a feast on the eyes for the girls’ prettiness though! Dara looks really really pretty and fresh! ❤

2NE1 shot to mega-superstardom from their thumping, debut single “Fire” and continued to release a rush of hit singles, collecting over half a billion views on their official YouTube channel, collaborating with superstars like will.i.am and Skrillex, and touring sold-out shows around the world.
Despite their success, the girls had only released one full-length album since their 2010 debut, “To Anyone.” That changed in February when the YG Entertainment group dropped second LP “Crush,” which immediately became the highest-charting K-pop album on the Billboard 200, landing at No. 61. Plus, the set was dubbed favorite girl group album in a Billboard.com readers poll, beating girl groups like Destiny’s Child and Spice Girls.
Nearing an impressive five years in the industry and a number of milestone achievements under their belt, the record-breaking group seems more eager and spirited: The girls just released a new music video for “Gotta Be You” (the third vid unleashed from “Crush”) and launched their highly anticipated tour, “AON: ALL OR NOTHING.” The tour that has already hit Korea, China, Hong Kong, the Philippines and Malaysia since its launch, bringing thousands to the their show.
With lots to celebrate, 2NE1 — aka CL, Bom, Minzy and Dara — invited Billboard exclusively to the studio where they were shooting for their upcoming Japanese album cover to talk what it means to break records, the most memorable moments during their five-year career and their plans for the rest of 2014.
