PART 1:

DARA, ADVERTISING MANAGER OF CL / MULTITASKER AND HEAD OF THE PUBLICITY DEPARTMENT

Tell me your personality.

Let’s start with CL’s leadership.

[MINZY] CL is the person who is suitable to be a leader. She excels in leading other people and has a sense of responsibility over her members. When it comes to 2NE1’s fashion, sometimes the ideas come from her. I think you can call her a Fashion Leader too.

[BOM] Leader in every sense.

[DARA] She’s always thinking of how to make our stage delightful for fans and how not to make it boring.

All the fields are hers – a multitasker. What about DARA?

[CL] Dara is the head of the publicity department. She has a very bright aura and very talented. She is very helpful.

[MINZY] She’s really an interesting person. She gives out a lot of various ideas, just like a goodwill ambassador! Even before our Japanese debut, she thought of the countdown site and it was made. She’s also very positive and if its her ideas, you can raise your expectations because it will surely be something aggressive.

[BOM] Even if she is facing hardships, she acts like nothing happened the next day. In person, doesn’t she look weak in appearance? (laughs) But deep inside she’s very strong. She has strong professionalism. She respects truly.

(Dara laughs – Park Sisters fighting!)

[DARA] Is it? Or will you forget everything you said after you will sleep?

[BOM] For 1 minute. (Smile) Even though I easily forget, it is not lost completely. When I forget, do I look natural or what?

[DARA] Strangely, even if something happens on stage, we just stand and put on smiling faces.

[BOM] It is just professionalism. 

How about BOM?

[CL] She’s our mood maker. On stage, you are charmed by Bom’s overwhelming singing ability and sexiness but offstage, she’s charming and loved by the fans.

[MINZY] She’s our sexy mood maker. Her groove on stage is great!

[DARA] She is sooo cute in nature.

[CL] If you have watched our reality show 2NE1TV, 99% of the fun and cute portions is Bom (smile).

The remaining 1%?

[CL] It is Dara.

[DARA] Me and Bom are a comedy duo (laughs).

It’s right. I have heard that BOM is good at taking good care of her skin and use beauty products to have incredible smooth skin. Do you sometimes do something special too?

[DARA] I always drink lots of water. Its good for maintaining good skin care.

How about MINZY?

[CL] She is in charge of sexiness.

[DARA] Minzy is very good in singing and dancing. Even if we are anywhere, I can just sit down in my place and have peace of mind watching Minzy.

Minzy’s mother is a famous dancer. She came from a family of good dancers.

[MINZY] (laughs)

[BOM] Minzy’s dancing always gives me goosebumps. Her great performances are always hair-raising.

[MINZY] (laughs)
