Dara: "Hold it! Hold it! Don't fall asleep!"
CL : "You know, you know, y'know?"
Minzy : *nods and smiles
Bom : "I think I saw a unicorn somewhere"
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I'm dead
😂😂
Let’s not forget that Bom has ADHD so that could be the reason why
CL speaks a lot on interviews because she is the leader, the spokesperson of the group. Thats her job, her responsibility. Learn some kpop group positions of the members and you'll realize that.
👍🏼👑🆑️
True just like RM of BTS...
Dara is literally me in school
+Minlyn Park lol
hahahah I love her
Minzy was actually listening and trying to understand the conversation. She's the only one who couldn't speak fluent English back then, but she's just really smart to teach herself an entire foreign language she can literally converse in English these days. I mean what do y'all expect she even graduated Magna Cum laude in college her brain is something else 😌
And Minzy was listening intently while Dara was sleepy (hehe) and Bom was spacing out. 😁
Sigh, i missed this girl and the 2NE1 era.
CL is a smart woman
true
Elsa Padrón Serrano why ?
her father is a scientist so its in her DNA ;)
Her family are all intelligent. Her younger sister is like super smart, I think she went to the best university in .. Hong Kong? With the best scores and stuff correct me if I’m wrong! CL speaks 4 languages so I really wonder what would have happened if she didn’t get into a KPOP group.
That's why she is leader😍
Sandara is constantly rolling her eyes... You could tell she's trying to stay awake :S Life is hard for celebrities...
i can see what you're saying. i think she's so sleepy. :( thats so sad
they may have not got used to this serious type of interview. it is business focused, not entertaining.
Christinellie or she's on drugs
LSD lmao
Caca Rina Drugs my ass
Why is everyone talking about this interview being boring? I actually liked it, it was mature and professional. The interviewer was really good because he had information and provided good questions. Just because it's not fun it doesn't mean it's a bad interview.
ikr!
yeah I find this very entertaining.. cl answer is go Polish hehehe
Yahhh this is for PROFESSIONAL interviews that #2NE1 Queens are really are QUEENS
The questions are not boring, but he should've tried to at least throw some random questions on other girls. I mean Dara and Bom can also speak fluent English so why not.
this is so true, I don't understand why people connect quiet to being boring. It was relly interesting for me, the way the interviewer spoke to them and everything
With Dara blinking so many times and Bom looking down all the time, they looked like they were suppressing their urge to fall asleep.
bom and Dara are fluent in English too... I wish they could be interviewed as well
HAHAHAHAHAHA DARA's EYES ARE LITERALLY GONNA ROLL OFF HER FACE.
ikr lol
I think CL answers all of the questions very thoroughly and quite thoughtfully actually. The interviewer was a bit harsh during certain questions so that was quite unnerving. I just love my girls and truly feel badly for Dara because she is doing everything she can to stay awake. Been there!
2NE1 deserved the popularity and exposure that BTS or BP has had in the US
that's right!
I blame yg! He stunted their potential!
Yes, they were already ahead
It’s not only YG’s fault. 2NE1 acted complacent relying on a CL to be the sole speaker for the group each time,boring the audience.At least Minzy looked alert and interested. It would have helped to have her memorize some answers and take part in the interview.CL is fluent but she was annoying with her “you know…”habit. She never even really looked at the 3 making them look “invisible”. Bom looked bored and too quiet.…no trace of the hilarious Bom we know. This is a pity because she can speak English with an American accent even. Dara is also fluent in English even with her Filipino accent and actually very witty. Instead, CL nearly lulled her to sleep by monopolizing the interview.A good leader should have prepared the others to participate.
@@micho474
But bts relies on namjoon and they’re doing fine??
Just look at minzy's face during the interview, she is like : yeaaaa, sure i don't have a clue about what are you talkin' about, but it's ok, just smile and everything is gonna be okay. I love her
I'm very focus in Dara's eyes ! Hahahha
Shes sending us some Morse code using her eyes Lmao
Cristina Sanchez hahahaha me too
HAHA
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Dara is sending us a serious message using Morse code. Gawd I wished I studied Morse code now.
+Marco Cota HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHHA
OMG IM DEAD LOL
hahahaha u r killin me
+Marco Cota Beautiful House Eugene Oregon LMAO Marco!! Wait till she reads that!! hahaha
LAUGHING MY ASS OFF😂😂😂
Ummm they are being interviewed by Wall Street Journal of course the questions are gonna be serious! How old are most of you?!!! He's asking appropriate questions pertaining to their marketing strategy and how successful it's been for them globally. I thought the interview was very good and he never talked down to them and showed respect. Plus this is almost 3yrs old I'm sure everyone's English is exponentially better than it was then.
right. i believe the interviewee should have been the ceo of yg, if wsj really wanted to discuss strategies since artists may not have a decent sense of the company's strategies. btw, i was truely impressed by kpop companies' marketing :)
I think the dude interviewing them did a really good job. He kept the question coming, made eye contact, told some jokes. It was great.
no lol
Cl:you know .you KNOW YOU KNOW
Yes I know
blackjacks: We know!
LOL
Like. You know, yeah like yeah. Like, you know ;_;
ZOE ISBOSS She sounds nervous
+Ylai Jah Haha it sometimes bother me too >
Cl's voice makes me feel relaxed lol
same
Saaaaame
CL looks like 30's here who the fk did her hair?? Im so maaaaddd
Jiwon Lee yea!!! its obvoius cl's fake hair
I think it looks good :) But yeah, if you think she looks older it your opinion ^^
Looks like a wig
Ikr
Anyone else noticed that it's 18min just CL talking? xD
I think because minzy, Bom and Dara's English isn't the best or they're just really shy
yeah well could've guessed that, just noticing
SoakingEggs yea pretty much
they absolutely planned it beforehand. 'cause only CL had a mic
@Millor obviously, still strange
i think CL definitely handled this interview well. it was more formal and intellectual compared to the interviews she is probably accustomed too and i am impressed by her level of understanding and responding to his questions.
Sandara want to sleep, give her a pillow 🌙
I love CL's voice...so much.
CL's voice is VERY calming! 😻💕
She is just so amazing! 👌✨
The interviewer is making it sound like a business strategy interview ._.
Well it's Wall Street Journal, not a teen magazin, you know? :/ What were you expecting?
They don't make it fun though. The others don't like to speak eventhough they can speak English which makes them awkward in these kind of interviews.
It is tho.
This acc is about business omg
2NE1 PAVED THE WAY. ♠️
C.L.'s just so smart! She just cleverly answers every question. You see that all her answers have no pretensions, whatsoever, and she just is comfortable speaking about what it is she loves, cause just is natural all throughout. GAAAH! C.L. MY ULTIMATE FEMALE K-POP BIAS!!!
As a person who witnessed 2ne1 in their stardom. No other GG in kpop who can surpassed this legendary group. Blackpink maybe more popular now but still they can’t matched the presence of 2ne1 in live performances and even in interviews. Just by looking at them they have a very strong aura and just listening to their bandname 2ne1 hits me different.
Watching this video on this day, and still wow on how 2NE1 was huge during their era and until now. That's what legends do. It's a great footprint for this new generation on how they opened the doors for kpop groups now a days in the international market. Missing you girls. Hope y'all doing great. STAT SAFE!
I think CL talks more than the others because they might be shy with their English and so they say let CL talk and we'll say very little because they're shy.
No its because she is the group leader. Bom knows more english than CL.
808naty oh i didnt know that Bom knows more english than CL. Bom went to college in the U.S. right?
Yea she went to college in the U.S.
They can speak and can understand well English but CL was the representative of their group.
Bom lived in the United States since she was little. She lived in the states for a long time so she knows more
Park Bom looked stunning 😍😍😍
CL and her "You Know" habit is soo cute :'D
Those poor girls. Should've gotten someone better to interview them. They all look like they were going to fall asleep.
keep in mind this is a business focused interview conducted by wsj so it is supposed to serious
+Keanu DelRey Cl speaks in English but I am not sure with the others. Maybe he is trying to speak slowly and calmly. I guess it is a bit formal talk show that kind.
+wmwvic they all speak english
He talks so slowly man
Like Kevin Powell formerly of Vibe Magazine
CL is such a smart and charismatic woman and artist. People don’t realize that she was 19 or 20 in this video.. i mean look how she talks and how she handeled all the questions right, without being intimidated by that native American interviewer. Now that i’m a 28 yo man whatching this.. i find this very impressive 🔥
CL looks like a mom... whoever did her hair did bad
+Kara S was thinking the same
Kara Lee my grandmother use that hairstyle
I like it lol their looks are from the I love you MV and I hope your aware that it has a slight vintage style with CL. Ofc kpop fashion is a perfect mix of literally everything thats why i love it
i would cry if i were CL wow this is sooo formalll
Who paved the way again? That's right, 2NE1 did
🤭👍🏼✌☝️
CL is so perfect. I love her english! She seems to be very smart, educated and nice person. Love this group!
I love all the girls and wish they'd all speak up. They are the best singers I've heard in a long time and they are more real than majority of celebrities these days.
Blackjack for life!
I love how excited CL looked at the fact that Dara has a business card.
This`s not 2NE1 interview......This`s CL interview.....
Well duh she's the only one who's not nervous when she speaks english. If the others wanted to talk, they would. They should've just interviewed CL.
the others are shy ... thats why she takes the lead
All members can speak English. They are just shy.
3 of them can speak english like dara and boom but they are just shy
CL: Y'know..y'know...y'know, y'know ...y'know ? Y'know! ..y'know... Y'KNOW
hahaha~
yes hhhhh
2ne1 worked so hard breaking into the U.S for the new gen kpop groups
Cries
There's no 2NE1 anymore...
Anna 2_211 Ikr~ T~T
This was so awkward to watch. Its like they're in the principles office or sumthin lol
the best mannequin challege😂😂😂haha
All the people in the comments talking abut how boring this interview is and wondering about all the business questions, this is an interview for the Wall Street Journal. Last I checked that is a business publication. The interviewer is just asking the questions that will interest his readership/viewers.
Dara looks possessed her eyes are rolling 99% of the interview
the lashes must be itchy.
You can tell Dara is trying to not fall asleep... She was most likely tired
Sara Oruc its her mannerism
Why do I feel uncomfortable, I mean I feel like I'm watching a tragic interview like you know interviews made for victims of stuff... hahaha o___O
the interviewer :'question for CL'
CL : ' YOU KNOW'
Really good interview. CL represent 2ne1 very very well, excellent english and great responses.
The interviewer makes the girls nervous. .___.
Yeah I know he´s scary o.o
The way CL answered the questions are so articulate ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I am Dara when I got bored in the lesson at classroom.. 😂....
Poor Dara she's so tired yet need to attend the interview just to seat. 😏...
CL was 100% ready for him
KIDS DONT KNOW ABOUT THIS BECAUSE ANDROID PHONES IS NOT YET A THING THAT TIME! 2ND GEN PAVED THE WAY!
I thought the title said: K-pop group 2NE1 discuss breaking the U.S and I was like whuuuuut
***** why lol
CL intellectually and realistically answered every questions. She Nevered said I but always we which is a true leader do. The girls behaved accordingly. That’s why we Loved this Group 2NE1.
Dara's hair is jiyong hair in fantastic baby😂
The legendary group
2NE1 girl group
Love you
I'm so proud of these girls, and I can't wait to see more of them in North America. :)
One thing that I noticed about 2ne1, especially CL and Dara is that they are media-trained very well. I found out recently that Dara has been a part of a talk show with the beauty talk stuff, while CL, according to this video, could literally carry out an interview for 18 minutes straight by herself. This is what sometimes the kpop groups lack, which is cute to the fans to see their idols being shy on stage yet great on stage, but to succeed more in business, theyll need what CL has here. I don’t mean to offend anybody, but sometimes without the personality that CL has, other groups feel like manufactured robots 😕 I hope kpop groups will also focus on training in this area so they could succeed more, especially in breaking foreign markets 😊
because she’s already an Idol in Philippines before she debuted in 2ne1. She has many media appearances and concerts in Philippines. She was considered an A list idol there.
I have noticed that Dara is like the Mother figure in the group (she is the oldest in the group) and she takes on alot of responsibility besides singing and dancing. She hardly sleeps and that can catch up when you least expect it. Love you Dara!
Park Bom is on fleek!
CL says "You Know" too much but i love them. they are the only group that i had listened to first when i had started liking KPOP they are like idols and i look up to them when i listen to their songs and i can relate to them. they are amazing and i thank Nicki Minaj for letting them into her commerical bc soon they will be big in the US. 2NE1 Forever:)
lol CL's hair is more like a mom look instead of fierce idol on fire look :D
WTF is up with Daras eyes? LOLLL
lmfao maybe she had something in her eye
omg that made me laugh so hard....yeah she keeps squeezing them shut and then rolling them. Either she had something in her eye, she was trying to stay awake, or she was on drugs. Or she's a actually a robot. :O
I'm dying laughing at that now! I didn't noticed before but it's too funny~
i think she's sleepy
Mae Zi Yeah she looks like she's trying to stay awake, I'm sure they had a crazy schedule in the US... just like everywhere else I guess :0
2NE1 has to learn a lot of languages on top of new choreography, remembering old choreography, working out, eating right, dressing fashionably, and constantly sharing their private lives. I think CL did a great job speaking for the group as a whole, especially as the Leader, and hope that 2NE1 can feel more comfortable speaking English in the future. 2NE1 fighting!
I love these women, such talent and so sincere and sweet. I hope the music industry doesn't ruin who they really are in their hearts like it has with so many.
2016 until is ruined.
People still wanna act like 2NE1 didn't pave the way 😂😂😂😂
💯 Exactly ✌☝️♥️♠️♦️♣️
Maybe wsj should interview YG himself instead and talk through translation cuz no one knows better about the business than he does. 2ne1 are celebrities, they have a image to build and they can't say that it's all about the money even though it's painfully obvious to everyone.
now they say BTS paved the way lolss
The interviewer did his research a LOT better than most other western interviewers, props to him.
This interview is nice because of 2ne1, the gentleman interviewing them is trying to influence his audience into thinking that they are inauthentic but they are so pure and will not be broken~
bom minzy and dara wait for cl to laugh so the can all smile lmao and bom just waits for minzy to nod so she can nod too ,3 this interview should have been by a korean speaking person with subs poor girls ,/3 the looked like the was going to pass out from boredom lol
+Camii Cat but they all know english.. don't they?
They all know English
true af lol
true af lol
true af lol
Love these ladies. Love KPop
Am i the only one who noticed CLs cute face at 4:05 and taht she said every timw you know xD
I REPLAYED CL'S "Yes, Of course~" @2:09 SOOOOOO MANY TIMMMESSSS I CANT WITH HERRR OMLLLLLLLL I LOVE HER SOOOOO MUCH
take a shot every time dara rolls her eyes
I know other members like Dara and Bom can speak English as well as CL does but why can't I hear them speak some more than just a few words? I like CL but I wish CL could stop saying "you know", please ... it makes me feel nervous.
I think she the only one who speak it fluently
Trinh Nguyen Right. Actually She got K-12 schooling plus college education in the States. She is just timid and doesn't like to speak in public.
Well look, CL is 2ne1s leader, so she has the lead in all of the interviews. And also, she is aloud to say 'you know' as much as she likes because u cant control her
bubbles pop I know I can't control her. I'm just giving an advice. She can say "you know" as often as she wants, but any native speaker would agree that it will sound much more professional to use less filling words like "you know" in her public speech.
Khrenisbaymot1 im a 5th generation aussie and I know how to speak english, saying "you know" is not what a native speaker would say but she isnt a native speaker so she has the right.
i like how this interview is framed so that the interviewer appears larger and important that the band (hah, america)
Someone needs to count CL "you know"😂😂 it's too funny
It would be interesting to see his face when he sees that CL is actually debuting here in the states.
All of these comments were hillarious.. i'm dying😂
Such an interesting interview this show seems awesome, great journalist.
CL answered really well, avoiding the traps but still trying to be the most honest she could.
I am proud of my girls
This is a Professional interview not like what new YG Girl Group had TBH, Take note PROFESSIONAL
Love for 2NE1 from Russia!!! LET'S PLAY NOLZA!!!!
2ne1 forever!!!!!!!!!
Another legendary girl group
How many "you know" CL said? lol
right?! she's getting better at that. less "you know" now
He is trying to analyze them too much through an american visor, the idea of them is that they dont fit in these stereotypes. Their reality show isnt like the kardashians.
That is the WHOLE POINT of the questions.
Guild3412 Im just saying if he wouldve prepped more, he wouldve known about their reality show. He asked if it contained things they didnt want their parents to see (aka sex or boys in general) luckily they thought he meant make up or something. Reality shows there arent like jersey shore or the kardashians.
Alright.
DCUOPuppetmaster yeah i totally agree with u but maybe the reason why the interview looks awkward or kinda rude bcoz of the things they didn't want their parents to see is because of culture..i mean the difference in their open mindedness
Dara feel sleepy..hahaha ,so cute 😂😁
Can't wait for their global tour.
Minzy looks so bored & she & dara look like they would fall asleep any moment xd
Dara: i like Britney Spears....
LIE you like Regine Velasquez hehehehe
Hehehe,👍
that's an only philippino's funny hope. so disgusting.
The interviewer ask them who they like in usa,.. Regine velasquez is a filipino, dara like britney in usa
I don't know why I laughed so much when she said 'Britney Spears' so quick. She looked like she was about to fall asleep and she didn't expect that question 😂
I’m also a huge Britney fan ! So glad Dara also likes her
Either SanDara is very very VERY tired, or her contacts are going dry lol
She's so cute
How many times CL said "You know"
12:54 "Oh! This is hard" CL's way of saying that line is like.... 😂
