2NE1 Returns with First Two MVs for Second Album, CRUSH

After several delays caused by scheduling conflicts and technical glitches, the girls of Korea’s fiercest girl group 2NE1 are back with their new album CRUSH! To celebrate their first full-length release in four years, the girls released MVs for tracks “Come Back Home” and “Happy.”

YG’s famed producer Teddy produced “Come Back Home,” one of CRUSH‘s two lead singles. A song about waiting for a loved one to return, the track has a very modern hip-hop/R&B melody with elements of reggae. “Come Back Home” instantly topped major music charts upon its release and now that its futuristic MV is out, its domination has only gotten stronger. Watch the 2NE1 ladies rebel against false reality below, and don’t miss the snippet of the “Come Back Home (Unplugged Version)!”

In contrast to “Come Back Home,” “Happy” reacquaints fans with 2NE1’s upbeat, cheerful personas and their signature street flair. Produced by both Teddy and group leader CL, “Happy” brings listeners a colorful, buoyant melody and lyrics about wishing an ex a happy life. Check out the MV below:

Labeled a “top-quality album” by YG’s CEO Yang Hyun Suk, CRUSH includes: “Crush,” lead singles “Come Back Home” and “Gotta Be You,” “If I Were You,” “Good Girl,” CL solo “Mental Breakdown,” “Happy,” the Korean version of Japanese single “Scream,” “Baby I Miss You,” and “Come Back Home (Unplugged Version).” Along with frequent YG collaborators Teddy, Choice 37, DEE.P, and more, CL participated more than ever in the composition of Crush, writing music and lyrics for three of album’s 10 tracks.

Still on the way are MVs for “Come Back Home (Unplugged Ver.)” and “Gotta Be You,” so keep an eye out!
