I attended for 2 days Let me tell you it was THE best concert ever 2NE1 was killing it Band was killing it (by the way same band that they had for all other 2ne1 tours) Sound and light engineers were killing it as well Normally Korean fans don't dance on concerts but this concert everyone was dancing I felt so many emotions during concerts They were the first girl group in kpop that i liked And seeing them live after so many years was so unbelievable Also i was in front of the stage so the hype was on the another level there
Did you notice that Sandara upped her energy and matched Minzy in dancing. The singing is, as always, exceptional. CL and Bom both are looking good. The divas have returned.
Not just the energy in dancing but also her confidence. I felt like becuase of the long hiatus that she had no choice but to fend for herself in shows and performances. Also, maturity. All of them grows into a different person now but they're still the 2NE1 we know, and we're all here for it. 🖤🖤🖤
This was actually last minute. The members initiated & decided to do a 15th year commemoration photo shoot only. Then after that the ladies decided to have a meeting with YG. After that meeting, all parties agreed to a reunion project for their 15th yr anniversary. Then turned out to be a global tour. The venue is the same venue they had their 1st concert bec it was so last minute to book big venues but it was nostalgic & very special for 2NE1 & Blackjacks. They are pros & take their live performance seriously. Watch their ballad section. I think you have not fully appreciated their vocals. Their energy on stage is unmatched.
YG announced 2NE1's comeback in the 3rd week of July, the members started practicing by the 4th week of July, in between their individual shows overseas. So, technically, it was last minute but gosh, the way they performed is UNMATCHED with other girl groups considering their age. Bom, CL and Minzy are power belters! Sandara improved so much and still so gorgeous, and they all have this charisma and stage presence that is unique to 2NE1. They are total performers, they don't need to act cute! They are the Idol of Idols, just like BIgbang! They have set the standards so high with their live performances! Notice the crowd partying and not holding their phones up? That's how a concert should be!
0:40 The venue was actually quite small, it was the only venue they could secure on such short notice. They did perform for three days in a row, though. Over 500k people were in the queue for the Seoul tickets, but only 12k managed to get them. I hope the encore concert in Seoul rumors are true so more Blackjacks get to see the queens!
@@JK0097-u9lndkcn it's not about "stating facts" or whatever the fuck you think this is, it's about being annoying and inserting BTS in anything that involves other groups or artists when BTS wasn't even mentioned lol
Bawled my eyes out watching fancams of this con. They’re my childhood and literally my first kpop group 😭 so so so happy for them and all blackjacks ❤️ NOLZA!!!
Thank you for explaining the thing about the layers/sound engineering. Now it makes sense to me why the backing track was going on and off at certain parts throughout the whole concert. You learn something every day. :)
GD, Daesung, Gummy, Se7en, Jennie, Mino&Yoon (Winner), DK (IKON) and BABYMONSTER from our YG Family with YG himself Kang Daniel, Jooe&Daisy(Momoland), BOYNEXTDOOR, Q&Kevin (The Boyz), New Jeans, Key and others 2NE1 brought kpop royalty to their concert
"Kpop nowadays sing for the concept while 2NE1 IS THE CONCEPT." - Waleska PERIOD! So so so so true. 2ND GEN were just different breed all in all. THEY ARE THE CONCEPTS which is why 2nd gen music are miles better than 3rd to current gen. Also, 2NE1 actually only rehearsed like 2-3 months for this. All just muscle memory, i believe.
a little bit unrelated, but i do have to agree that 2nd gen groups are their own concept. it's just 2NE1 dan BIGBANG are bold bold and set a pretty high standard. but when i heard other groups, even smaller one like KARA, T-ARA, Sistar, f(x), etc. i still know it's them because they're the concept itself.
gave the entire industry 10 solid years to catch up and no one was still able to be on the same level as them. And you're all right, 2NE1 & BIGBANG concerts are SO MUCH different to any other kpop concerts. they set the standards so high when it comes to live performances. BEST LIVE PERFORMANCERS, 2NE1BANG. CL was and still the BEST FEMALE KPOP RAPPER, it's not even close. THEE Standard. also, for the venue.. it's actually pretty small. the same place where they held their very first concert. YGE said they were not able to book for a bigger venue due to "short notice". However, 2NE1 esp DARA had been hinting the entire 3 days about an encore concert. So if that ever happens (which probably next year), it will be definitely a bigger venue.
SAID WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID! Period. True queens, the OG group of Kpop, the biggest one, the top selling female kpop group of all time, unmatched forever THEE QUEENS
Lucky!!!! LA’s last tour was New Evolution in 2012 (which I did go to)😭 they never left Asia. So there were soooo many regrets from people in the West. They better really have a WORLD TOUR!
I lost count of how much tears I shed from Day 1 of their Welcome Back concert. This is their 15th anniversary thats why they came back. Im glad they did. The last 2ne1 concert I attended was 2011 in Manila. I miss them so much.
I know!!!! I’ve been looking up clips since Day 1. And all 3 days are over but I’m still watching! Loooooooove them to death! Once a BLACKJACK always a BLACKJACK! ♠️
My guess for a huge part of the reason they brought 2ne1 back- WHICH IM SO GLAD THEY DID!!!!! bc current yg groups are just not getting the same love that 2nd/3rd gen yg got (they were known as the artisty label with just absolute talent- which they do still have talent and popularity but they seem to be struggling with getting the same dominance they used to have in the industry). so with 2ne1's continued popularity despite their hiatus and their reunion at coachella being so well received, i think yg is realizing its time to start working with their old groups bc really bb and 2ne1 had something unique that cannot be replicated
my first love, the queens 2NE1, been praying and waiting for their comeback for ages. my blackjack heart is so full of happiness right now. 🥹🥹🥹♠️♣️♦️♥️
Actually Bom is their main belter but both CL and Minzy can belt too. I would suggest to watch this concert’s version of It Hurts, If I Were You, In the Club, and Stay Together. These are some of my favorite songs. Been a Blackjack since 2008 with their song Lollipop with BIGBANG.
I think Bom got the Main Vocal role because of her unique voice, and her technique that was better back then. Nowadays Minzy would easily be the Main Dancer, Main Vocal and Lead Rapper tbh.
@@moamoaoz I love Minzy she is the BEST dancer! BUT CL is still thee best Rapper! She will always be the LEAD rapper! no one can compare! Don’t disrespect the Queen! She is the VERY reason why we’re getting this concert reunion! She lead & headed negotiations with YG! What you talking bout!
@@moamoaoz “Minzy would easily be the main dancer, main vocal and lead rapper tbh” that is the implication! Stop the gaslighting! You said it!duh!!!!🙄🙄🙄🙄
you guys should check out the ballad/r&b section of the show. the performed missing you. if i were you, it hurts and lonely, veru soulful and beautiful.
CL's solo performance had everyone shook. YG needs to make that a video. G-Dragon was there. I wonder if he closed his eyes when he saw her do the dance break. Usually he does when he sees her do something like that dance break. Everyone's energy was up. I was so proud of Park Bom. She looked confident, had energy and her singing was on point. Their mics were on the entire time. When they slowed things down, their singing was fire especially Park Bom. When she gets into "It Hurts", I cried. When they sung "If I Were You", they sound like they went through 10 divorces, been cheated on 20 times and went broke. Yep, it was that good. I hope YG now realizes that 2NE1 was always a power house. His stock has gone up since he announced their return. The Queens are back and the best leader....the Queen...The Mother...The Alpha...CL held her ground.
The big venue all fully booked, so they got small venue and this is happend in Japan also. But for their encore i think they will have big venue since Dara mentioned in day 3.
That is so true! "They never left"! Now i really like some other kpop also. And there are some absolutely amazing kpop groups for sure! But as a fact these ladies sold more total albums than any other kpop group in music history! Now that really tells how popular 2ne1 is! They really are a true legendary music group! Not to mention how they changed the history of kpop!
There were preparations but this is how 2ne1 perform since then. They are always so hype and energetic when doing performances. OG YG family are the best group when performing live
Saw them in LA 2012 never thought it would take this long to see them again, looking forward to 2025. Last saw Bigbang LA 2015, hoping to see them again.BigBang and 2NE1 concerts are 🔥
They fought for this. With CL in the lead, they fought to come back. And discussions only started in May. So they pretty much has less than 4months to prepare.
And you also are right about the live performances of these ladies! They set the standard for live performances in kpop! The energy they have is just unreal!
The hall capacity is 4000, however 400K+ people queue for their concert but unfortunately YG couldn’t book bigger venue, thus it was expected the encore in Seoul will be at stadium that can hold 50K+ people
The reason they came back is that the members asked YG themselves that they wish to celebrate their 15th debut anniversary by performing on a concert, so YG and the members worked together along with other people to make the show great. They've been practicing since July because that was when YG also announced that 2NE1 was going to be back for an Asian tour.
2NE1 started preparations July 2024. They were only active as a group for 5 years (2009-2014). Bom was mostly inactive. CL and Dara did shows July to September this year. Babymonster performed on Day 2-3 break. Day 1 break was a congratulatory video from idols including IU, GD, Baemon, New Jeans, Aespa, Treasure. Pharell Williams was in the video. There was no other artist for opening act. Concert opened to the early part you did the review on (Bom’s Come Back Home + full Fire song). Hope you watch their ballads and whole concert. It’s online now.
YG owned the trademark of 2ne1 so they just could not perform on their own. The reason why Coachella was such a hush and came as a suprise to avoid lawsuit and stopping them. But last May the 2ne1 girls gathered ( as their thing every year) and gave us Blackjack a pic of them together as a 15th anniv gift for us but then the 4 girls decided to do more and decided to go for a concert and for them to be able to do that, they need to ask permission from YG . CL, their leader ,made that possible for them to make it happen. If you only knew what these girls have done for us to make thus happen and we are so thankful for the four girls to make it happen. And trust me even during their prime years ,2ne1 always been like that. Their stage presence is what they drawn us with and we cannot believe that up until today they have not lost that .... i just hope 2ne1 will continue their legacy and not make this one time thing ...
Hope you can watch their “Ugly” performance. ❤ they started talking abt this comeback as gift to blackjacks for their 15th yr anniversary last January only. Began practice late july so give or take 2 months worth of rehearsals and other schedules in between. They were only active for 5-6 yrs frm debut btw. 😅 so being able to perform tgt like this really blew my mind like it seems they didnt disband and were always together performing like no time passed in between. Truly amazing performers.
It was a small venue, but I think there were hundred of thousands in the ticketing queue, that they added a 3rd day. Same thing is happening for the rest of their asian leg.
Sandara Park had a very interesting life in the Philippines before she became a 2ne1. It's actually a cery long documentary and I watched it from start to finish. Part 1, if you're interested th-cam.com/video/UcJu53moRe0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=p1vR_Tk5iglhGLen
Y’all as a blackjack I’m so elated that they back! Pls react to UGLY that was soo LIT and CL’s solo in the concert! Y’all can’t miss that she was once again raised up on the platform & was killing MTBD like she did before! You guys betta watch it!🔥🔥
8:30 Just a lil addition tho. Idk of efra and waleska are familiar with 2ne1's slower tracks but minji and bom can DEFINITELY sing power ballads. As a matter of fact bom was known as a proper vocalist before YG put her in 2ne1. She appeared as a feature vocalist in a couple of GD&TOP songs prior to debuting in 2ne1. Minji on the other hand is fully capable of being a power vocalist as she has sung some gospel music after leaving 2ne1 but even while she was in 2ne1 she sang quite a lot of the more vocally intense lines. YG just for whatever reason wanted to cage her into the rapper/dancer role when she was very capable vocally as well. CL while being mainly a rapper she herself is also a capable vocalist. Maybe they arent top tier in technical terms but they very much are a vocally powerful group as well. Perhaps you guys can react to It Hurts, Missing You and their other ballad type music. I don't really remember if you guys have reacted to them before or not lol
The MIC IS ON! Watch 2ne1's ballad perfomance 💯 truly unforgettable! Their emotional depth and vocal prowess shine through beautifully. The way they convey feelings with their voices is just captivating.
Always love your reactions, the knowledge the both of you possessed about singing and the technical aspects behind the scenes. That's why i subscribed.
Let me get the some facts corrected: When 2NE1 celebrated their 15TH ANNIVERSARY last May (when they released the photoshoot) they WANTED to celebrate it with a concert so they talked wirh YG HIMSELF to help them with the concert since YG still have their song trademarks and the capacity to do massive tour --NOT YG WANTING IN BRINGING THEM BACK. Its the girls who wanted to do this, not even in YG's 2024 calendar lol. Also, the venue is small (8k capacity) and the demand was so high (70k in ticket queuing) so they stretched it out to 3 days to accommodate more. They did say booking a venue with 3 months notice is hard so they can only book this gynnasium where they first held their 1st concert. Reviews are also STAGGERING WITH PRAISE. ALL FANS ARE JAMMING, SINGING, JUMPING AND HAVING FUN!! ALL 3 DAYS!! With multiple celebrities spotted all throughout the 3 day concert.
Just every clips made me cry the first time I saw it. And I cried so many times. 😭 2NE1 for real is the concept and their songs are made for them. It almost suits ONLY them which makes it hard to be covered very well by others. (same with BIGBANG songs) BABYMONSTER just killed it. I'm very proud of them. Thank you for bringing talent. Thank you for reacting to this Efra and Waleska. These are the times I come back to your chanel ❤️
Sandara Park is from korean but transfer to philippines. She live and study in philippines many many years that is why Sandara is fluent in Tagalog dialect..But she is a full blooded korean. But her heart belongs to philippines. That's what she said. 😊🥰
Sometimes, I hate YG but you gotta admit he makes a lot of sense a lot of times. "Practice so damn hard that it becomes a part of yourself". As a Treasure fan and YG stan, it always amazes me that they literally play on stage, like a lot LOT, amidst slayage of choreos and high notes.
this what im saying all along they know their craft so well thats they are so good at what theyve doing. Performing is not just singing songs but its everything!
This was actually very last minute I think they started rehearsals in June or July, 2NE1 wasn't even on YG's calendar for 2024! 2NE1 did a photoshoot earlier this year for their 15th Anniversary but they wanted to do a concert to celebrate then all four members met with YG (if I remember correctly CL had a meeting of her own about it before YG met with the other members) since YG still owns the name rights and has the capacity to do a tour and YG agreed but it was very quick thats why the venue was small (8k capacity, bigger venues need to be booked a year-6 months in advance) but meaningful they had their first concert there & because they sold out in minutes they added dates to accommodate everybody tho Dara did tease at one of the concerts they may be an encore concert in the works at a bigger venue. So we'll see.
@@realchocochocothe "next monsters" was just a description. Every YG trainees are always monsters in terms of talent. I bet the next boygroup's name would be "Magnum" 😂
One of my wishes is also to attend 2ne1 and bigbang concert 😂, I do hope they will be coming to europe this time. Never been to kpop concert since my heart is still on this two groups. The OGs are still the AMAZING as always. They only had 2 full albums and 2 mini , but the song list is topnotch, concert worthy songs 👌🏻… I’ve been watching videos of their concert for these past days and I can’t get enough of it 😂
CL thought of having a commemorative 15 year celebration (month of May) since their debut rather than just photos and dinners together. They thought of concert, told yge about it, several meetings after - they're back. They were never offered a concert btw, this was all 2NE1's doing. They thought about it and YGE is pretty much in kind of slow pace bcs they only have akmu, treasure & babymonster as active groups..
The 2ne1 members knew they wouldn't be able to do this without YG's machineries. And YG gladly let them, must be his dream to bring back his fist daughters as well. Don't be bitter and stop spreading false negative narratives.
They could easily ride the hype and have a full on return if they wanted to but i think they are in a place of doing it for fun rather that a full time job again.
@@lululittlebox did you read AND comprehend the comment? There was NO FALSE NEGATIVE NARRATIVES there. There were NO PRIOR news about them getting offered for a comeback concert - if it's not for 2NE1 and their initiatives to have this concert then none of this would ever happen. What's with the people and the comprehension nowadays, good Lord.
They did a commemorative photoshoot for their 15 year anniversary. And then decided very short notice to make a 15 year anniversary tour and met up with YG et viola here we are! It was really short notice!
I attended for 2 days
Let me tell you it was THE best concert ever
2NE1 was killing it
Band was killing it (by the way same band that they had for all other 2ne1 tours)
Sound and light engineers were killing it as well
Normally Korean fans don't dance on concerts but this concert everyone was dancing
I felt so many emotions during concerts
They were the first girl group in kpop that i liked
And seeing them live after so many years was so unbelievable
Also i was in front of the stage so the hype was on the another level there
they don't dance at concerts? how boring ☠️
You are a successful fan! Thank you for the representation!
Omg❤
Its not the same band from before, Right now its 4Rise Band.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I quit watching kpop after the girls disbanded but this is a dream come true. Lucky for you!
10:58 "They are playing to a concept nowadays, with 2ne1 they were the concept." OOOOHHHH I LOVE THIS!!! 💕💕💕 Kids listen! 😁

They are the idol of idols, 2NE1 brought the YG family back 🔥🔥🔥
2ne1 has a very strong stage presence. They look powerful in stage and they sing live the entire show. They know how to connect the crowd
The big venue all fully booked, so they got small venue and this is happend in Japan also. But for their encore i think they will have big venue since Dara mentioned in day 3.

The reason they came back is that the members asked YG themselves that they wish to celebrate their 15th debut anniversary by performing on a concert, so YG and the members worked together along with other people to make the show great. They've been practicing since July because that was when YG also announced that 2NE1 was going to be back for an Asian tour.
The band with them is the 4Rise band the band with BABYMONSTER fanmeeting and TREASURE.
Many 3rd and 4th gen idols attended thr REUNION
Jennie was there and was filmed mouthing Sheesh vibing. G Dragon and Daesung were there too.
Im literally crying ughhhh 2ne1 i love you!!!!!!
It would have been nice if you guys check out the fancams because damn it was a party from start to finish. Everyone was dancing, jumping up and down.
2NE1 started preparations July 2024. They were only active as a group for 5 years (2009-2014). Bom was mostly inactive. CL and Dara did shows July to September this year.
Babymonster performed on Day 2-3 break. Day 1 break was a congratulatory video from idols including IU, GD, Baemon, New Jeans, Aespa, Treasure. Pharell Williams was in the video.
There was no other artist for opening act. Concert opened to the early part you did the review on (Bom’s Come Back Home + full Fire song).
Hope you watch their ballads and whole concert. It’s online now.
YG owned the trademark of 2ne1 so they just could not perform on their own. The reason why Coachella was such a hush and came as a suprise to avoid lawsuit and stopping them. But last May the 2ne1 girls gathered ( as their thing every year) and gave us Blackjack a pic of them together as a 15th anniv gift for us but then the 4 girls decided to do more and decided to go for a concert and for them to be able to do that, they need to ask permission from YG . CL, their leader ,made that possible for them to make it happen. If you only knew what these girls have done for us to make thus happen and we are so thankful for the four girls to make it happen.
And trust me even during their prime years ,2ne1 always been like that. Their stage presence is what they drawn us with and we cannot believe that up until today they have not lost that .... i just hope 2ne1 will continue their legacy and not make this one time thing ...
The band is 4rise, they are with Treasure on their concerts too. They are so freaking good!!❤🔥
Hope you can watch their “Ugly” performance. ❤ they started talking abt this comeback as gift to blackjacks for their 15th yr anniversary last January only. Began practice late july so give or take 2 months worth of rehearsals and other schedules in between. They were only active for 5-6 yrs frm debut btw. 😅 so being able to perform tgt like this really blew my mind like it seems they didnt disband and were always together performing like no time passed in between. Truly amazing performers.
It was a small venue, but I think there were hundred of thousands in the ticketing queue, that they added a 3rd day. Same thing is happening for the rest of their asian leg.
over 400k+ Queue actually
The venue wasn't enormous. That's probably why a 3rd show was added because tickets sold out too fast.
Iconic! 2NE1 the Queens!
Sandara Park had a very interesting life in the Philippines before she became a 2ne1. It's actually a cery long documentary and I watched it from start to finish.
Part 1, if you're interested

Y’all as a blackjack I’m so elated that they back! Pls react to UGLY that was soo LIT and CL’s solo in the concert! Y’all can’t miss that she was once again raised up on the platform & was killing MTBD like she did before! You guys betta watch it!🔥🔥
8:30 Just a lil addition tho. Idk of efra and waleska are familiar with 2ne1's slower tracks but minji and bom can DEFINITELY sing power ballads. As a matter of fact bom was known as a proper vocalist before YG put her in 2ne1. She appeared as a feature vocalist in a couple of GD&TOP songs prior to debuting in 2ne1. Minji on the other hand is fully capable of being a power vocalist as she has sung some gospel music after leaving 2ne1 but even while she was in 2ne1 she sang quite a lot of the more vocally intense lines. YG just for whatever reason wanted to cage her into the rapper/dancer role when she was very capable vocally as well. CL while being mainly a rapper she herself is also a capable vocalist. Maybe they arent top tier in technical terms but they very much are a vocally powerful group as well. Perhaps you guys can react to It Hurts, Missing You and their other ballad type music. I don't really remember if you guys have reacted to them before or not lol
They did react to 2NE1 a year or so ago, I think. Check their channel playlist.
12:42 they actually made up their minds like in the middle of the year, they didn’t really have a lot of preparation tbh
babymonster's 1st full album tracks list video released today 🥳
YG regrets. That's the reason. Secondly. 2ne1 is arguably one of their money makers.
You should react to their It Hurts and Ugly stage, it was insane 😭
11:47 money, 2ne1 was and is a power hause
The MIC IS ON! Watch 2ne1's ballad perfomance 💯 truly unforgettable! Their emotional depth and vocal prowess shine through beautifully. The way they convey feelings with their voices is just captivating.
Sadly , treasure was in Thailand and indonesia. So they couldn’t guest
they could guest in the next stop which is Japan
Thanks for reacting to the kpop legendary queens❤
The preparation for this World Tour only 3 month! Even doing the preparation/ training they are busy with their own solo schedule
Always love your reactions, the knowledge the both of you possessed about singing and the technical aspects behind the scenes. That's why i subscribed.
It’s their 15th anniversary and they really worked hard to make this happen
THERE'S A HUGE POSSIBILITY THAT YG WILL HOLD ANOTHER YG FAMILY CONCERT.
Let me get the some facts corrected:
When 2NE1 celebrated their 15TH ANNIVERSARY last May (when they released the photoshoot) they WANTED to celebrate it with a concert so they talked wirh YG HIMSELF to help them with the concert since YG still have their song trademarks and the capacity to do massive tour --NOT YG WANTING IN BRINGING THEM BACK. Its the girls who wanted to do this, not even in YG's 2024 calendar lol.
Also, the venue is small (8k capacity) and the demand was so high (70k in ticket queuing) so they stretched it out to 3 days to accommodate more. They did say booking a venue with 3 months notice is hard so they can only book this gynnasium where they first held their 1st concert.
Reviews are also STAGGERING WITH PRAISE. ALL FANS ARE JAMMING, SINGING, JUMPING AND HAVING FUN!! ALL 3 DAYS!! With multiple celebrities spotted all throughout the 3 day concert.
It was 400k in ticket queue
Please, check CL solo part of the concert. Is really cool
Just every clips made me cry the first time I saw it. And I cried so many times. 😭 2NE1 for real is the concept and their songs are made for them. It almost suits ONLY them which makes it hard to be covered very well by others. (same with BIGBANG songs) BABYMONSTER just killed it. I'm very proud of them. Thank you for bringing talent. Thank you for reacting to this Efra and Waleska. These are the times I come back to your chanel ❤️
2NE1 were also pretty known to their ballad hits and their powerful vocals to those songs like If i Were You, Lonely, etc.
YG GOT THE BEST BAND, BEST ARTIST IN THE WHOLE FVCKING WORLD
update: babymonster updated track list just drop
THEY WERE THE CONCEPT! I could not have said it better!!
I'm eternally grateful for this reaction for my Queens 2NE1 THANK you Waleska and Bro.. welavyah, #ph
Sandara Park is from korean but transfer to philippines. She live and study in philippines many many years that is why Sandara is fluent in Tagalog dialect..But she is a full blooded korean. But her heart belongs to philippines. That's what she said. 😊🥰
Im so happy so excited goosebumps ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
THE QUEENS ARE BACK IN THEIR THRONE.....................................................................
They are the idol of the idols.❤❤❤
I was wrongLY worried about the state of Bom. She’s awesome!
Actually BIGBANG was first kpop act who began using life band for their concerts and tours. Also their solo tours 100 percent with life bands too.
Sometimes, I hate YG but you gotta admit he makes a lot of sense a lot of times. "Practice so damn hard that it becomes a part of yourself". As a Treasure fan and YG stan, it always amazes me that they literally play on stage, like a lot LOT, amidst slayage of choreos and high notes.
this what im saying all along they know their craft so well thats they are so good at what theyve doing. Performing is not just singing songs but its everything!
Waiting for react full album babymonster
They started to repeat on July.
2NE1 ARE THE MOTHER'S❤👑🔥💪🏼😎!.
Finally!!!! 2NE14ever!!!! Blackjacks!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Queens indeed!
bro their Japan tour got 6days straight performance 😭
for me baby monsters and Svt are the most stable idols right know 'cuz they are amazing performances and vocals are insane
This was actually very last minute I think they started rehearsals in June or July, 2NE1 wasn't even on YG's calendar for 2024! 2NE1 did a photoshoot earlier this year for their 15th Anniversary but they wanted to do a concert to celebrate then all four members met with YG (if I remember correctly CL had a meeting of her own about it before YG met with the other members) since YG still owns the name rights and has the capacity to do a tour and YG agreed but it was very quick thats why the venue was small (8k capacity, bigger venues need to be booked a year-6 months in advance) but meaningful they had their first concert there & because they sold out in minutes they added dates to accommodate everybody tho Dara did tease at one of the concerts they may be an encore concert in the works at a bigger venue. So we'll see.
From 3 countries to 8 if I'm not mistaken. See u in the Philippines!!!!!
THE LEGENDARY COMEBACK CONCERT FROM THE LEGENDARY QUEENS OF KPOP 🙇🙇🙇🙏👏👏♣️♠️
excited for YG's next boygroup debuting next year. YG is saying they are the male version of Babymonster in terms of talent.
Babymonster is the female version of Treasure, tho.
@@lululittlebox it came from YG himself that the next boygroup will also be monsters
@@realchocochocothe "next monsters" was just a description. Every YG trainees are always monsters in terms of talent. I bet the next boygroup's name would be "Magnum" 😂
3 days concert in Seoul
I was teary eyed watching this the first time on yt..blackjack 🖤
One of my wishes is also to attend 2ne1 and bigbang concert 😂, I do hope they will be coming to europe this time. Never been to kpop concert since my heart is still on this two groups. The OGs are still the AMAZING as always. They only had 2 full albums and 2 mini , but the song list is topnotch, concert worthy songs 👌🏻… I’ve been watching videos of their concert for these past days and I can’t get enough of it 😂
CL thought of having a commemorative 15 year celebration (month of May) since their debut rather than just photos and dinners together. They thought of concert, told yge about it, several meetings after - they're back. They were never offered a concert btw, this was all 2NE1's doing. They thought about it and YGE is pretty much in kind of slow pace bcs they only have akmu, treasure & babymonster as active groups..
The 2ne1 members knew they wouldn't be able to do this without YG's machineries. And YG gladly let them, must be his dream to bring back his fist daughters as well. Don't be bitter and stop spreading false negative narratives.
They could easily ride the hype and have a full on return if they wanted to but i think they are in a place of doing it for fun rather that a full time job again.
@@lululittlebox did you read AND comprehend the comment? There was NO FALSE NEGATIVE NARRATIVES there. There were NO PRIOR news about them getting offered for a comeback concert - if it's not for 2NE1 and their initiatives to have this concert then none of this would ever happen. What's with the people and the comprehension nowadays, good Lord.
They did a commemorative photoshoot for their 15 year anniversary. And then decided very short notice to make a 15 year anniversary tour and met up with YG et viola here we are! It was really short notice!
