Photos: Beautiful, Fashionable Sandara Park Stuns in “CRUSH” Japanese Version Photobook!

Dara looks awesome in the pictures! The hair has grown on me now that I’ve seen it in action during the MV.. XD I love her “schoolgirl” fashion in the photobook! Her first ensemble with the striped pink top, cheetah-print skirt, matched with black jacket and pumps with white mid calf socks, is cute yet fashionably fierce as well.. ^^ You guys know my love for her “rebel schoolgirl” look that she sported in the MV, right? ^^ And of course, she looks stunning and regal in her shoot dressed in her red “CRUSH” outfit. ^_^

News: The Korea Herald – “2NE1 Gears Up to Hypnotize Japan”

2NE1 gears up to hypnotize Japan

20140618001595_0

The K-pop girl group 2NE1, currently on world tour, released a promotional video for its upcoming Japanese edition of the EP “Crush” on YouTube.

The group is to release the album in Japan on June 25 with repackaged contents, different from the Korean edition.

As the Korean version of “Crush” was thoroughly loved by fans worldwide, the upcoming album is raising anticipation among eager fans. The album will have 10 tracks: “Crush,” “Come Back Home,” “Gotta Be You,” “Do You Love Me,” “Happy,” “Falling In Love,” “I Love You,” “If I Were You,” “Missing You” and the unplugged version of “Come Back Home.”

In addition, the upcoming EP will contain a Japanese version of a music video that caught the eyes of eager fans.

2NE1 seems to have made an effort to provide an album that contains most of its colors to captivate patient fans since it has been two years since the group released an album in Japan.

Following the release of the EP, four members — Minzy, Park Bom, CL and Sandara — will hold concerts in Japan as part of their world tour “All or Nothing.” 2NE1 will perform at Yokohama Arena from July 5 to 6 and at World Memorial Hall in Kobe from July 12 to 13.

The fervent group will interact with Japan fans at after-parties in Shibuya on July 6 and in Osaka on July 13.

Audio+Translations: 140614 2NE1’s Fun Guesting on Japan’s InterFM “K Generation” Radio

Last night, 2NE1 guested in K Generation radio! This is their first radio guesting to promote “CRUSH” Japanese version album! Give it a listen because we can hear the Japanese versions of their songs from “CRUSH” album, specifically “Crush” at 2:27, “Come Back Home” at 9:38, “I Love You” at 17:56, “Happy” at 27:40, and “Gotta Be You” at 50:08.. ^_^ The girls all sound so cute speaking in Japanese! Dara has improved a lot, and I’m happy she’s more confident speaking in Japanese this time. ^^ It’s cute how she asked Minzy and CL how to say some words when she spoke in long sentences. ^^
