2NE1 Looking Classy in Singapore Press Conference

YG Entertainment’s icon of ‘Girl Power‘ 2NE1 were looking chic and classy at the pre-concert Press Conference held at Grand Copthorne Hotel Singapore. Here for the final stop of their New Evolution Global Tour, the girls are no stranger to the sunny island with this being their fourth visit.

Just here last month for a surprise appearance at Singtel’s fanparty, Leader CL expressed the group’s feelings to be back again, “We’re very very happy to come back and we love Singapore.” And so are their Blackjacks (2NE1′s fans), having queued hours before the concert and snapping up the exclusive SoundCheck passes in no time.

내가 제일 잘나가 (I Am The Best), one of their hit songs that also embodies 2NE1 as a top girl group. It is no surprise when CL revealed fluently in English that she is a workaholic. Vocalist Dara is a cat-lover, and loves to spend her leisure time playing with her cat Dadoong( a combination of her name and her brother Cheondoong, who is also an idol singer in boygroup MBLAQ). Lead Vocalist Park Bom simply answered “I eat” causing the media to erupt in laughter. The maknae(youngest) of the group, Minzy was rather quiet unlike her fierce persona on stage as the rapper. With her answers translated into English, she seem to enjoy knitting as a hobby.

What if they weren’t singers? To which CL replied with a loud resounding “Nooooo”. Thereafter shocking everyone by revealing her childhood dream of wanting to be a nun when she was young. Dara would want to pursue acting as she was an actress before, with an itch to do a slapping scene whilst Minzy aspired to be a poet. Lead vocalist Park Bom stayed true to her roots of being a singer no matter what.

With this being their last tour stop, 2NE1 is in preparation mode for their next album. So Blackjacks, you have something to look forward to! The press conference ended with a photo call, in which the girls professionally posed for the flashing cameras. A pity the media weren’t given the opportunity to pose questions, or it’ll have been even more interactive. Stay tuned to Korea.com for a review of the mind-blowing concert!
