Blackjacks were quick to notice that 2NE1 looked better than ever for their recent comeback and the group revealed their weight loss secrets.
During an interview, 2NE1 shared, “We prepared for our comeback with a rookie mindset and were determined to muster up all of our energy and do it together. We want to work hard in our promotions.”
Park Bom shared, “People only look at my legs. I wish they would look at other areas. That is why I worked hard to go on a diet for my top half. I tried to tone up my hip area but my members don’t have to work too hard to minimize their hips. That is why I decided to focus on my volume.”
Dara shared, “We were filled with passion this time around. There are workouts that we could only do with our trainer but after we came back home from the gym, we did 10 more sets. In the end, my abs were not pretty 11-character abs but more like a washing board. That is when I realized that I have to work out with an expert.”
Minzy also advised, “I don’t know if it’s because I am still young but I lost more baby fat. I decreased my intake of carbohydrates and focused on working out. There are times when I don’t eat anything at all when I go on a diet but if you decrease your intake of carbohydrates, you can eat a little bit and still lose weight.”
CL, who has been busy with her solo debut and 2NE1’s comeback, revealed how she stays grounded through it all: “Starting a year or two ago, I began to take 30 minutes out of my day to meditate. After I meditate, I felt like I can spend my day more peacefully and meaningfully. It is a time to invest in myself. A little while after my debut, I realized that I need to take time for myself. Sometimes I meditate in my car for the times when I’m really busy.”

GUYS! Please read the translated conversation! This is sooooo funny! ^_^
Dara: Start! We escaped secretly from our choreography practice just now (recess time)!
Bom: I felt so thirsty and I’m feeling really refreshed now after drinking some water.
Dara: I’m eating waffle now because I think I lack sugar.
Bom: !@#$^%&#???? (I think Bom said ‘are you a grandma’ but not clear)
Dara: Haha my sugar level goes down because the dance is “Woah! Woah! Woah” hahaha okay the preview is only until here! It’s so different from Falling in Love! The preview is until here!
Bom: Okay let’s start our talk time.
Dara: As we were practicing our dance, I remembered a situation that happened long time ago so I hid here and wanted to share the story to all of you. Okay so about 3 years ago we were practicing <Try to Follow Me> dance and obviously, Papa YG came in to test and advice us. THE SCARIEST TIME: “Do it one by one!”
Bom: Ouuwwhh//////// O.O
Dara: So the members danced one by one and Papa YG would be saying,”Chaerin pass! Minzy pass!”
Bom: Bom pass!!! Hahahaha!!!
Dara: Hahaha and my turn came. By the way I’m Dara. It was my turn!! /laughs~~/ and I was dancing hard under the song <Try to Follow Me> ~~ /laughs~~/ then suddenly Papa YG looks at me!!!
Bom: Hahahahaha!!
Dara: He was wondering and said to me like this: “Hmm… Dara..”
Bom: @^##^^@&*$*!#@*&^%$#@!!
Dara: Ah CL is good at following Papa YG’s voice..
Dara: /continued/ “Dara-ya.. Your breasts are small.. but try to push it!!”
Bom: He said push it~~!!
Dara: And he was so frustrated and said,”People dance well when they have good bodies!!”
Bom: I think Dara is telling this story once a week for 3 years! /laughs!!/
Dara: You know that..
Bom: If you take a closer look, her breasts are not ‘that’ small. I checked it! Should I check it now everyone?
Dara: No No No!!!! Turn it off!
Bom: Bye Bye~~!!!

2NE1, a girl group made up of 4 members (CL, DARA, BOM and MINZY), ranked the top for the first time on a TV music chart show with its new song “FALLING IN LOVE”.
On July 18, 2NE1 became the winner of the music chart show “M Count Down”. The show airs live every Thursday afternoon but the July 18 show was cancelled because of Mnet’s “20’s Choice” awards ceremony.
But when Lee Soo Hyuk and Hong Jong Hyun were on the stage during the ceremony, they said that the audience would soon be able to meet M Count Down’s July 18 show’s winner. As soon as they said it, CL, the leader of 2NE1, showed up on the stage and sang “THE BADDEST FEMALE”, which was released in June as a solo. Right after her performance, rest of the 2NE1 members joined her on the stage and sang FALLING IN LOVE with the winner’s trophy on their hands because FALLING IN LOVE was the M Count Down’s winner of the day.
Right after its release on July 8, the reggae style dance music has been sweeping No.1 on many music charts both at home and abroad but this was the first time to be at the top on a major TV broadcaster’s music chart show.
Meanwhile, CL was also awarded 20’s Choice Style award at the ceremony, which was held in Ilsan KINTEX, Gyeonggi from 7 p.m.
