Introducing 2ne1
2NE1
2NE1
Update (5/1): YG changed a few of the girls’ stage names. Kong Min Ji is going by Minzy and Sandara Park is going by Dara. All four of them will be on one-name basis: Minzy, Dara, CL, and Bom.
KP’s note: Why would they name her Minzy? Koreans can’t even pronounce the “z” sound, so she’ll end up being called Min Ji instead anyways.

Min Ji is just 15 years old?! I’m just wondering..why are they making a young star look mature or older? o_O

April 6, 2009 at 4:10 am
i loveeee park bom!!! =D i think she has the best vocals in the group so far…

o d min ji is 14 (american age) she looks so mature that it makes her look older

woah, i never knew the other members beside park bom and sandara park are that young. I kinda can’t believe the leader is the same age as me :O!

April 6, 2009 at 7:23 pm
The age gap is still really weird to me but whatever. I don’t understand why CL is the leader though?

. i do know sandara park . she’s been an artist here in the philippines. well . we’re happy for her ! :] ..
jamrys
April 8, 2009 at 12:33 am
yah, me too.. I really thought that park bom would be their leader… Y CL? she’s too young… and yeh, the gaps are pretty…. far…
sikret143
April 8, 2009 at 11:41 am
yeahh…a 10 yr gap between park bom or sandara and min ji is like shocking!!
from the pictures that i’ve seen…i actually assumed that she’s the oldest!!
nd the leader issue…maybe CL is the most skilled??! just maybe…i don’t really know…but yeah…i think it would be more appropriate for park bom to be the leader…but i’m lovin them…can’t wait for their actual debut XD

lol minzy has the same surname as me! so lol

May 6, 2009 at 4:37 am
sandara park… wow. she is really coming back. ^_^
kong min ji? she’s only 15? woah, she looks 18 or something.
wicky
May 6, 2009 at 7:58 am
well, i think cl is the leader becuz her habit is songwriting, just like gd..hehe…the minji is only 15?!?!?!shes only 5 months older than me!!! but weird, cuz she looks the oldest,,hehe =P…as usual, “pambansang krung-krung” sandara, is cute..hmm,,I like CL, hehe..even though i don’t know her that much, she already impressed me in Lollipop, i kinda don’t like park bom(no offence bom fans) cuz its just, she didn’t impressed me in lollipop,,hehe..but maybe she can in other songs, i hope..=P minji really makes me kinda annoyed, cuz shes only 15,,hehe..don’t know why im annoyed…(no offence again) thats it!
Ranking:
1.CL
2.Krung-krung
3.minji
4.bom
=P who agrees with me???

I like CL and Minji very much, but I’m not so fond of Bom or Sandara, somehow I just don’t find them interesting. Based on the songs released, CL and Minji are really showing their talent in singing, dancing, even posing. They also seem very natural in what they do, which I believe is why they’re outshining the other members. In Lollipop MV, Sandara got a lot of screen time leading the fans to assume that she was the leader (I also remember reading somewhere that initially, she was), another reason why YG would have wanted Sandara to be the leader could be because she had already established a fan base and was known better than the other members. However,I’m glad that CL got picked, I think that she’s the best of the group at doing her own “thing”, like GD in Big Bang.

..wow,,i can-t believe that sandara park is now popular in korea..go sandara..keep up the good work..i can’t believe that the other member of 2ne1 is very young. Cl is only 18..we have the same age.I can’t believe it..they look matured..

im happy that sandara park had finally get her career back >____<
QUEEN ziezie
June 11, 2009 at 7:25 am
minzy is actually 16 yrs old in korea but in america she would be 15 yrs old she was born 18jan94 so do the math and dara was popular in the philippines she just wasn’t as popular as she used to be there so she left for korea to pursue her career there. happy for her!! rock the K-pop world 2NE1!!!!
aznsensation
June 13, 2009 at 4:20 pm
CL is the leader (maybe) because she has been with the YG group the longest. She’s been with them for a long time. I think Bom also has been with them for a while, but maybe not as long as CL?
But it could have something to do with their personalities too?

minji is just 15!?

June 20, 2009 at 9:29 pm
they’re actually pretty good, the first time i
saw them…i was like “that other girl reminds me
of sandara park”..and guess what? it is her.LOL
anyways, I’m happy for her though I was never a
fan of hers. I’m really surprised with their age
gaps as well…I hope their age doesn’t hinder
their interest and start conflicts. Goodluck
to them.

I love their songs… very catchy and sometimes I find myself humming them while working… good for Sandara. She was able to redeem her career in her own country…. love it!

July 28, 2009 at 12:28 am
isnt 21 supposed to be the average of their age ?
i thought bom was 15 .
their ages right now are …
CL – 18
Bom -25
Dara – 24
Min ji – 15
the average would be 20 and a half .
idk, lol . cuz before i saw somewhere
that 21 was their age average,and that bom
was 15 . lol xD nvm …

August 6, 2009 at 8:10 am
dara & bommie’s both talented.
but i gotta say, CL & Mizy are the best !
CL’s really fresh and natural and not like those screechy, cutesy untalented asian singer who only care about big eyes and milky skin.
Minzy’s just one year my senior, damn.
I wish i was in her place
unfortunately though, i’m in malaysia.
so yeah.
go 2NE1
