One of the best Korean groups, definately one of my favourites for sure.

I have to say though (regardless of will.i.am's support), this is definately the K-Pop act that has the most potential to be a worldwide success. They're something special.

Back in November, we reported that famous designer Jeremy Scott and 2NE1 had a photo session introducing ‘JS Collage Wings x 2NE1? shoes at the Adidas Original store.

These special shoes were designed by Jeremy Scott, who brought together 2NE1?s music, character, fashion style, and the individual member qualities.

Today, a video collage was revealed of the fierce foursome showing off their various styles wearing Adidas clothes and sporting the ‘JS Collage Wings x 2NE1? shoes. The orbital feel, cool designs, and cute pictures of 2NE1, will surely attract not only Black Jacks but also fashionistas world wide.

SPIN's 20 Best Pop Albums of 2011

6. 2NE1
2nd Mini Album
The TLC of K-Pop dropped this stopgap, six-song EP compilation in July, and for pure (purely impure?) sonics, it might be the year's most boldly thrilling recorded statement. A collision of electro-house, hip-hop, and pop-rock guitar, with yet another undeniable hook cropping up every 15 seconds, it is the primary work of producers Teddy Park (formerly of Korean-American rap group 1TYM) and Kush. But this all-female foursome clearly own their persona more than most K-Poppers, particularly on the spicy, playalistic "I Am the Best" and the body-image throwdown, "Ugly." There's even a solo turn by the group's vocal powerhouse Park Bom, who considers the cosmos over a springy sprint to a piano-plinking chorus.

They're my favourite group (not only Korean group) ever, and I'm really serious! 8-) I've been addicted to her music since the first time I listened to them, and since then I've been listening to more and more K-Pop (I was more into JPOP before knowing them).

They deserve a thread on the Chart Analysis at least!

They were partying (minus Minzy) in Seoul with will.i.am!
Looks like he's TRULY into 2NE1 and I think whatever they're working will be really good.

Agreed. I like SNSD, but their albums only have a couple of good songs. Every song of 2NE1's is great & they are real artists, not just idols who do what their label tells them too.

Awww! I didn't know that there are some 2NE1 fans here.

Just to share a story, Dara (whose real name is Sandara Park) used to live here in the Philippines, and became a huge actress here for a year or two. Around that time, (this was in 2004) she was invited as the muse for one of the sections in our batch for our intramural sports opening during the start of our school year in high school. When she was signing autographs, my friend tapped her shoulder, and we met her and she shook my hand. She was really pretty in person. Not to mention, she was also very nice and accommodating. I won't ever forget that day, I didn't want to wash my hand! :D :D :lol: :lol:

Of course they don't.

I just wanted to say that I prefer SNSD. They seem more genuine and humble.

Also, I prefer their music, performances, outfits, videos, etc.
