History Music / TwoNEOne

In October of 2015, the group were announced to be having a comeback, but recent speculation and [[ http://media.daum.net/entertain/star/newsview?newsid=20151113070808694 reports from industry insiders]] point to this comeback merely being another CL solo track.

2NE1 (usually pronounced "twenty-one" or "to anyone" , Korean: 투애니원) is a KoreanPopMusic GirlGroup from UsefulNotes/SouthKorea. Several members featured in their labelmates' songs predebut, and Dara was a former actress and singer in the Philippines, where she grew up. They debuted in 2009 and obtained instant success, due in part to the fact that their style and lyrics gave the quartet an edge rare in the girl group scene at the time.

Additionally, Bom and CL are also successful solo artists, with Bomo debuting in 2009 and CL debuting in 2013.

Their status has been uncertain since 2014 due to the severe reaction to Bom's drug scandal, where she was caught [[http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/20634/1/2ne1s-park-bom-hit-by-drug-smuggling-allegations allegedly smuggling amphetamines into Korea years ago]]. There were several statements with varying degrees of authenticity, from weight loss pills to [[http://www.sbs.com.au/popasia/blog/2014/07/01/2ne1-park-bom-drug-scandal-explained medicine for her depression stemmed from the death of a good childhood friend]].[[note]]The authenticity of [[http://kpopkfans.blogspot.ca/2014/07/park-boms-grad-photo-surfaces.html the latter]] is definitely [[http://www.soompi.com/2014/07/02/park-boms-real-age-in-question-by-korean-media-miscalculation-or-not/ up for question]].[[/note]] Regardless of the true story and despite CEO YG's attempts to bury the incident, the strong backlash lead to Bom be pulling out of Korean activities, leaving the group to promote without her (if at all) in Korea afterward. Concerns that they will disband have arose, with Minzy having posted the quote "Your career may change, but you will not" while briefly removing the 2NE1 mention from her Instagram profile and CL's plans to debut in America as a soloist with Scooter Braun's entertainment company.

As of 2014, they have released 2 mini albums in Korean, 1 mini album in Japanese, 2 full albums in Korean and 2 full albums in Japanese, becoming ''incredibly'' popular at home. They've impressed Music/BlackEyedPeas' Will.i.am, who's helped them record an English album for their debut in the States; however it got stuck in DevelopmentHell and has probably been shelved for good.

* LyricalDissonance: the lyrics of the upbeat, cheerful-sounding ''Happy'' are anything ''but'' happy.

* ReasonYouSuckSpeech: Hate You, again.

* TroubledFetalPosition: CL did this naked in the "Missing You" MV, which ended up sparking some controversy among netizens.
* TrueCompanions: They may have been put together by their label, there may be a 10-year age difference between the youngest member and the oldest one, but the girls are ''inseparable'' now. They even got ''matching tattoos''.

* {{Cyberpunk}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLbfv-AAyvQ The music video for ''Come Back Home'' is set in a futuristic, grim metropolis in which people are addicted, to the point of dependency, to virtual reality.]]

** Their second mini album has a different sound than ''To Anyone'', too. 2NE1 (or rather, their producer Teddy Park) does not shy away from experimenting with different sounds and genres. This hasn't led to any BrokenBase, surprisingly. Or rather, that's not why their base is broken.

2NE1 (usually pronounced "twenty-one" or "to anyone" , Korean: 투애니원) is a KPop GirlGroup from SouthKorea. They debuted in 2009 and obtained instant success, due in part to the fact that their style and lyrics gave the quartet an edge unheard of in the ''vast'' Korean girl group scene. As of 2014, they have released 2 mini albums in Korean, 1 mini album in Japanese, 2 full albums in Korean and 2 full albums in Japanese, becoming ''incredibly'' popular at home and impressing BlackEyedPeas' Will.i.am, with whom they recorded an album in English for their debut in the States, that got stuck in DevelopmentHell; it has probably been shelved for good.

On July 1, 2014, Korean news site Segye Illbo reported that Bom had been caught [[http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/20634/1/2ne1s-park-bom-hit-by-drug-smuggling-allegations allegedly smuggling drugs]], having brought amphetamines into Korea [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/07/bom-discovered-to-have-hidden.html hidden in a box labeled "Snacks"]], and her grandmother initially claimed they were weight loss pills. Yang Hyun Suk (the CEO of YG Entertainment) [[http://www.sbs.com.au/popasia/blog/2014/07/01/2ne1-park-bom-drug-scandal-explained released a statement]] regarding the matter, saying that Bom took the medicine due to suffering from depression which stemmed from seeing the death of a good friend during a soccer game as a child. It was soon discovered that the "friend" was actually [[http://kpopkfans.blogspot.ca/2014/07/park-boms-grad-photo-surfaces.html someone completely different]], and that Bom was [[http://www.soompi.com/2014/07/02/park-boms-real-age-in-question-by-korean-media-miscalculation-or-not/ actually a few years older than she had officially claimed]]. ''Then'' it became known that Yang Hyun Suk had been buying off the media to try to stop them writing articles about the incident, and to delete comments on other articles in order to bury it. Bom has since been removed from the SBS show "Roommates", and there has been no further news from Segye Ilbo.

A rapper named Kemy from the recently debuted group [=A.Kor=] [[http://www.asianjunkie.com/2014/08/a-kors-kemy-disses-park-bom-for-attention-will-not-get-a-reply-cause-k-pop-beefs-suck/ wrote a]] [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/08/rookie-kemy-releases-park-bom-diss-track.html diss track]] towards Bom, [[http://www.asianjunkie.com/2014/08/2ne1s-fandom-has-lost-their-shit-over-the-park-bom-diss-kemy-is-running-scared/ resulting in her receiving]] [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/08/kemy-doesnt-actually-apologize-imposter.html praise from netizens]], and ''horrific'' [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/08/park-boms-coordi-counter-disses-kemy.html bashing]] from 2NE1's fans, including [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/08/ben-baller-viciously-defends-park-bom.html death threats]].

The group announced that they would be "[[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/10/2ne1-respectfully-declines-all-of-this.html respectfully declining]]" all appearances at 2014's year-end award ceremonies. However, they did appear at SBS Gayo Daejeon's year end show without Bom.

In autumn of 2014, Minzy [[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/10/minzy-preparing-to-leave-2ne1.html posted a few images about how "Your career may change, but you will not", and removed the "member of 2NE1" mention from her Instagram profile]]. Blackjacks were extremely worried that this might be signaling the end of the group ([[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/11/scooter-braun-welcomes-cl.html CL had previously announced that she would be joining Scooter Braun's entertainment company in America as a soloist]]). YG denied everything, and Minzy has changed her profile back, but it looks like there may be something to those rumors as CL has just announced her solo American debut and mentioned implied in an interview that she was no longer [[https://thewildmagazine.com/blog/cl-chaelin-lee-2ne1-interview/ a member of the group]].

* ''CL'', born Lee Chaerin, TheLeader of the group (Type II/Type IV), and the main rapper. Usually wears CoolShades. She's the second youngest member at 23.
* ''Minzy'', born Gong Minji. She's the youngest member of the group (she's 20), but has the deepest voice and is a main singer and rapper.
* ''Dara'', born Park Sandara. She sings and is the director of communications for the group. Although she and Bom are 29, Bom was born nine months before her.
* ''Bom'', born Park Bom, the main singer. Bom is known for her unique voice and her affinity for mini dresses. She's also the oldest member at 29, being born about nine months before Dara.

Discography:

They also have several solo singles:

* BigEater: Bom. Just... ''Bom''. Her love of food, ''especially'' corn, has reached memetic status within 2NE1's fanbase.
** CL, talking about the time when she visited Bom on the set of the MV for one of her solo singles: "''It turns out Bom unnie was escaping with a muffin in her mouth. There also was a muffin in one hand and a cupcake in the other''".
** CL revealed just before Bom's appearance on Roommate that Bom is ALWAYS eating to the point where she stashes snacks underneath her pillow so she can eat when she wakes up, which she does...and then promptly goes back to sleep.

** ''I Am The Best'', in particular, is nothing but over three minutes of self-boasting.

* DistaffCounterpart: Labelmates BIGBANG, by WordOfGod (the CEO of their label).
* EpicFail: In this live performance of GD&TOP's "Oh Yeah" (which Bom originally featured in), Minzy, CL and Dara also perform part of the song. Minzy and CL nail it, but Dara... She runs out of breath/can't keep up and starts jumping around maniacally in an attempt to cover for herself. (See [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOJzSc4uQRo here]] at about 2:18 onwards.) Not exactly reassuring to those who've been... less than enthusiastic about her singing style (some feel she should leave 2NE1, as her vocal skills are far below Bom, Minzy and even CL - she allegedly "had" to be given the role of "PR Representative" so that she wouldn't be eclipsed and made redundant by the others). Love her or hate her, she's still a sweet, dorky GenkiGirl.
** Fans have come to see "Dirty Vibe" as this. Though, it's more on G-Dragon's part than CL's.

* GenreShift: From the R&B-influenced K-Pop of their debut EP, to the electro-influenced ''To Anyone''.

* IdolSinger: Obviously. But unlike other idols, they pretty much stick to music - when they appear in TV, it's an event. May be because, when they're not on stage, they're really shy.
** They don't really appear on variety shows because their CEO has said "the reason we minimize their variety appearances is because we care for our artists. [...] If we became a company that succumbed to the requests of broadcast companies and stressed the importance of building relationships with related representatives, it would have been easier for us, but we are lasting as long as we can by having a different mindset from others."
*** This may be backfiring on him, as netizens complain that they don't really know the girls because they rarely get to see them outside of performances. (There ''was'' "2NE1TV", though - a reality show that followed the girls around.)
*** This seems to be changing, though, concerning the group's recent appearance on ''Series/RunningMan''.

* LighterAndSofter: Compare the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABIeCFLe9N4 Japanese version]] of the music video for "Go Away" to the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yW13T2sfKg original Korean version]].

* WebVideo/SassyGayFriend: Stylist Jeremy Scott is this to CL.

* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish: CL; because she grew up in many places (her dad was a physics professor), she's fluent in Korean, English, Japanese and French. Bom as well is fluent in English, she studied in America.

** SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: Due to having lived in the Philippines, Dara can speak very fluent Tagalog.
* TranslatedCoverVersion: Their Japanese EPs and albums are full of Japanese covers of their Korean songs.

* WouldHitAGirl: The guy in the "Go Away" music video. He pays for it, though.
** In all fairness, though - the guy made it clear to CL that he was done with her and never wanted to see her again. What does she do? First she refuses to shake the new girlfriend's hand (who was trying to be polite and ease the awkwardness), then she (CL) gets drunk and goes to the guy's house (while the new girlfriend is over) and harasses the couple until he snaps. Definitely a reprehensible act (and the guy's clearly in the wrong), but CL's not exactly blameless either.

The group announced that they would be "[[http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.ca/2014/10/2ne1-respectfully-declines-all-of-this.html respectfully declining]]" all appearances at 2014's year-end award ceremonies.

* OutOfGenreExperience: The reggae version of their hit ''I Don't Care'', and ''Ugly'', a song influenced by punk rock. Also, their ballads, but it's usual for them to put a ballad on every album.
