The K-pop girl group shakes up a CGI-created world and downtown Los Angeles with new visuals
K-pop’s baddest females are truly back and bolder than ever. After spending 2013 experimenting with different images and sounds — from the sunny, reggae pop of “Falling in Love” to the sparse, piano ballad “Missing You” — 2NE1‘s new album “Crush” feels like a return to its roots. The 10-track LP comes with hard-hitting, electro-pop/hip-hop tracks that recall some of the group’s past singles while refreshing the formula by incorporating new sounds.
It’s all led off by first single “Come Back Home” — one of two the quartet will actively promote — a reggae-trap hybrid that mashes the two seemingly disparate genres into a booming final product. Opening with a bouncy beat similar to Rihanna’s “Man Down,” the girls croon about losing a lover, asking him to “come back home” until the production flips into a heavy trap beat. At that point, the girls get seductive and demand their love to “come, baby baby, come, baby baby.”
While the gals played with reggae last summer, their latest feels like a more honest attempt to dive into the genre as opposed to just incorporating it for a nice summer sound. “Come Back Home” — along with album standout “MTBD,” a solo by 2NE1 leader CL — feel the type of tracks Rihanna or Nicki Minaj would make if a little more open minded to genre fusion.
In in its computer graphic-heavy visual, 2NE1 live in a futuristic world where one can escape reality for a “virtual paradise” with a special machine. While the girls can live out their ideal fantasies — unsuprisingly, main vocalist Bom is a diva singer entertaining a dinner crowd — when Dara‘s love interest would rather be in the fantasy land than with her, the girls transform into warrior rebels to lead an army to seemingly destroy the paradise.
While the sci-fi clip ends without an ultimate resolution, one wonders if the video for hip-hop/dance track “Gotta Be You” — the other promoted single off “Crush” — will be a part two.
The video for album track “Happy” dropped alongside “CBH,” revealing a much lighter side of the girls — despite the melancholy lyrics like the brilliant “I’m not happy, but I hope you’re happy” chorus.
Watch the cartoon-inspired visual as the girls saunter around Los Angeles in their signature crazy-patterned getups and hairstyles that require a double take — from Minzy‘s violet bowl cut to Dara‘s ’90s-inspired baby curls.
As Billboard previously reported, “Crush” could make an impressive splash on several Billboard charts this week. Early industry forecasts suggested the LP could sell 4,000 copies which could lead to 2NE1‘s first entry on the Billboard 200. The charts refresh every Thursday.
Fans can also look forward to videos for “Gotta Be You” and the “unplugged version” of “Come Back Home.”

Dara has amazing abs, along with Daesung and Taeyang.
2NE1 made their comeback this weekend with their All or Nothing concerts in Seoul. One of the most circulated photos from the concert has become a shot that highlights the well-defined abdominal muscles of Dara.

2NE1 are stand outs from other female groups in K-Pop for having a public image of fitness. Even Park Bom, who is often the source of fan banter regarding her love of the highly caloric vegetable corn, can be seen displaying a toned and fit body. In an industry that emphasizes ant-waists as the standard for women, 2NE1 serve as role models for healthier life choices for their fans.

In the leading weeks to the All or Nothing concerts, Dara shared photos of the exercise training process to build stamina for the performances.
YG Entertainment‘s artists are often photographed in the gym by their trainer, Hwangssabu. Through his social media, Hwangssabu encourages fans of YG artists to exercise and to adhere to a proper diet.

Beyond 2NE1, Big Bang’s Seungri, Taeyang, and Daesung are frequently captured in the gym photos.
For their Alive comeback, the physiques of Big Bang were highlighted and often shown during the group’s stage performances.

The emphasis on fitness extends beyond the established artists to the trainees and dancers. WINNER and the trainees of Team B have already demonstrated their commitment to join the ranks of physically fit artists at YG.
While SM Entertainment may have some of the most athletically inclined artists, it is obvious that YG leads the industry in terms of overall fitness. As Dara and the other members of 2NE1 continue to transform into more fit individuals, they serve as inspiration for fans who wish to lead healthier lifestyles.

I.HAVE.NO.WORDS!!!
So sexy and cute and flirty at the same time! ^_^
The girls actually know the guys they are giving a “lapdance” to. Photos were circulating online that the guy paired up with CL is actually the boyfriend of one of their dancers. This was staged but still sexy all the same! 🙂

Fans waited nearly four years for a second full-length 2NE1 album, and the K-pop quartet are certainly making up for lost time. After dropping Crush last week, the girl group have unleashed two music videos for new single “Come Back Home” and album track “Happy.”
We already raved about “CBH” for its ambitious mashing of reggae and trap, and we’re happy to say the music video does not disappoint either. In the sci-fi-themed vid, the gals live in a futuristic world where anyone can escape harsh reality for a “virtual paradise” with a pair of special goggles.
While that all seems lovely, it takes a toll on member Dara and her love interest when he chooses to hang in the virtual world instead of with her. You know what that means: Time for 2NE1 to shake sh-t up. The video ends with the girls leading a stampede of fire- and bat-wielding rebels. Please tell us there will be a part two.
Another one of our fave tracks off Crush to get a video is the peppy-yet-melancholy “Happy.” The girls rock a slew of whacked-out-but-still-chic outfits while parading around Los Angeles. We can’t take our eyes off them, but you have to watch below if just for Dara’s ’90s-inspired slick baby hair.
Billboard revealed that 2NE1’s new LP has been selling big numbers Stateside—for a Korean release—and could make a splash on the charts. We’ll be eagerly keeping our fingers crossed (and rewatching these videos) until it’s official.

We gave a basket full of Dara’s favorite dried mangoes, dried assorted fruits, inipit and choo choo pies from the Philippines. Thanks to Mama Wowa, we were also able to give Jo Malone Perfumes and Body Creams, Patchi Chocolates, Vitamins and Champagne.
