2NE1's discography is so versatile. They have music for every moment. Feeling happy, excited, hurt, bossy, lonely, ugly, nostalgic, sad, fierce? They got a song for it all.
The biggest mark left by 2NE1 on Kpop is that it popularized the concept of girl crush. All existing girl crush concept girl groups cannot escape the influence of 2NE1. At the same time, they were diva.
I love Teddy’s works during 2ne1 days. You could see how he explored different music genres in every 2ne1 song, every piece is unique and sounds soooo good. Top it off with 2ne1 unique voice and great vocal quality, those were such gold era
It Hurts MV was planned for release on Halloween that’s why the theme was witch-y- it was like a special treat for the fans as well because that same year was when their first full-length album was released (around Sept.) and they had not just one but THREE title songs that they promoted at the same time- the album was very successful so this was their way of thanking the fans. It was the first time in history of Kpop that an artist would release 3 title songs and promote them at the same time- it was unprecedented because all 3 title songs fought for the no.1 spot on K-charts so it was hard for the fans to focus on just one song for them to help 2NE1 win on music shows, lol. After promoting these 3 title songs, they extended their album promotions by releasing the MV for ‘It Hurts’ and also performing the song on music shows. Btw, the 3 title songs were Can’t Nobody, Clap Your Hands and Go Away. Please react to the rest of the songs in their first full-length album (‘To Anyone’) which also includes solo songs for Park Bom (‘You and I’) and Dara (‘Kiss’) and also a song with the maknaes- CL & Minzy called ‘Please Don’t Go’. They performed all their solo songs live at the 2009 MAMA along with ‘I Don’t Care’ (this and Fire were their debut songs). [One of my most favorite 2NE1 songs up until today is ‘Love Is Ouch’ which is included in this album :D]
Hiiiiii!~ Veteran Blackjack here. I was there from actually when 2NE1 were still trainees. The reason why 2NE1 looked so witchy in this video is because the MV was released right around Halloween 2010. 2NE1 had done promotions for their first album (this is where that song came from) from July of 2010 right through the awards season. This song was a B-side that they gave an MV to fans as YGE actually operated a bit better back then management wise (but only slightly).
I've been a blackjack since 2010 and I never knew about this!!! Omooo thanks for the new infoooo!!! It Hurts is one of my top ballad songs from them ugghh!!! 🔥✨
As far as I remember the guy in Gotta Be You is a model and was an actual ex of CL's. GBU holds a special place in my heart cause its the last full cb they did before YG decided to lock them in the basement... I wish we could turn back time and give them one more chance cause truly they were going up and up, they were killing it until their last cb.
Yay! Someone reacted to It Hurts! 😍 Edit: Witchy is really the theme. Dara is a witch. I think CL is a furry monster of some sort, Bom is yuki onna-esque monster, and Minzy is a cursed doll. All three and the guy don't really exist anymore, Dara is just doing all she can with her witchcraft to summon them once a year out of obsession.
It Hurts was supposed to be Daesung's solo, but they gave it to 2NE1 instead. Later in 2017, he released the original version he had recorded several years prior. He also sang the song live once in a YG Family concert with Se7en (a soloist who was a mentor and friend to Bigbang since they were trainees)
Thanks for reacting to 2NE1. As much as I love their upbeat songs I really love their ballad so much. I suggest Go away, Missing you, if i were you, good to you, and their last song which was Goodbye.
I can put 2ne1 as one of the Top 3 strongest vocals in 2nd Gen, but sadly people back then dont recognized them as vocaly strong,whenever there's a list of GG groups vocals they dont include 2ne1, but when its a solo list I rarely see Park Bom's name back then..they only include her for having a unique vocal tone. But for me I can say that they are in the Top 3 vocally strong among GG in 2nd Gen.They have a lot of song's that show's their strong vocals.
@@moonstar6521 I know, what I meant was the acknowledgement from kpop fans (non fans) because lets be honest,2ne1 were only known as a bad ass GG that made Girl crush concept to be mainstream,other than that they never talked about how vocaly strong they are.
RJ Thank you so much, im still a blackjack, i felt so emotional. I hope you could react more 2NE1 Songs, like GO AWAY, HAPPY, MISSING YOU, DO YOU LOVE ME, Her solos and lives stage pleaseee! Love u
as far i can remember , on 2ne1 tv during filming it hurt, they jokingly said cl is the step sister of dara trying to steal dara's bf 😂. minzy is the yonger sister of one of them . while park bom is the witch /fairy godmother .. (my memory is fuzzy . im old already 😂)
please check out CL's solo! she has two albums one EP fully composed and produced by her 'In The Name Of Love' (which she released as a fangift) and a debut solo album ALPHA she released in 2021 after 13 years in the industry. really hope you'll react to hello bitches, lifted, HWA, 5 STAR, Tie a Cherry, The baddest female, XAI, Siren and One and Only. She's also an amazing performer so do check out her live stages too. She also participated in composing and producing some of 2NE1's songs during her time with the group from the 'Crush' album and their last song 'goodbye'
If my math is right (which it probably isn't), Minzy - the maknae - was recently turned 18 for the release of I love You (her birthday is in January, this was released in July of that year). She turned 29 this year so if this was in 2012, then yeah, I think she was 18.
It Hurts was released on Halloween hince the theme, and it was perfect for the vibe of the song. Also, I've watched tons of reaction vids for Lonely throughout the years but you are the first one to give it a different perspective, that it can give someone an idea to break up with their partners 😅 Enjoyed your reaction as always 💕
Please react to 2NE1 perfomances, especially 2NE1 Live Performance at Seoul Olympic Stadium, 2NE1 I DON'T CARE ROCK vers, 2NE1 Crush AON Concert, 2NE1 Fire AON Concert, & 2NE1 Clap Your Hands, Pretty Boy, & Don't Stop The Music perfomance at AON Concert
'Lonely' was the very first Perfect All-Kill achieved by a gg...bagged the 'best vocal performance' and yess love the lyrics of it. The first time I heard without knowing the lyrics I thought i was just a typical 'sad love song' but as it turns out it's how being 'lonely' despite being with the person u love and loves u, a good person... It's depression ig....
Yes, the sexy girl with short hair in 'I Love You' MV is Minzy, the youngest. The song came out around 2012, Minzy's born in 1994, do the math, she's around 17~18 in the MV. Minzy's very good at dancing, and she's not shy to show sexy dance moves, but she's under 18 when she debuted(at the age of 15), most of the time her styles would be more boy-ish or say a bit more conservative than the other members, like no showing her legs and belly yet still equally stylish during her early 2NE1 days.
@@glaciemdraco oh...right...actually I always assumed it's the same year with I Am The Best🙈 but yeah, Minzy's still only around 18 that year anyway lol let me correct my message up there. TY for pointing that out!
2NE1 in general always had a big age gap (I think there's about a decade between the oldest and youngest). YG's new gg Baby Monster also has a big age gap (just shorter by a few years, I think it's like 7 years instead)
I love you and gotta be you are such underrated songs. I love both of them so much! “I love you” is so angelic and beautiful. My favorite parts are the bridge, the second verse, and 14:31, those parts are so angelic and beautiful and they all have such good vocals. “Gotta be you” is such a good song also. My favorite parts are the raps, the bridge, and the chorus. When I first heard the song I fell in love with the raps and the bridge. Both very beautiful and angelic and again their vocals sound so good!
I really like your reactions!! Please react to their other ballads: 'Missing you' and 'Goodbye' (this is their last song before disbandment, really heartbreaking)
What is really amazing is their videos ,song and fashion are so great ,amazing quality , you could think they were released yesterday its the same with bigbang that's why they are my favs
Watching these mvs make me feel so nostalgic, 2NE1 WERE AHEAD OF THEIR TIME. I remember how iconic just YG groups in general in terms on FASHION and SOUND like when edm was still entering kpop, also with how they can easily collab with western artists especially CL and GD. you’d understand if you’re a kpop fan back then.
I've been stanning kpop since 2009, and although i am SM stan, i love all the 2nd generation kpop groups. They are the reason why kpop got us curios about their songs, especially here in Philippines. The Era in which we don't have the easy access to watch their comeback mvs because we don't have time for that so we basically listen to Myx (local music channel) top international songs. And now watching reactors watching 2nd gen groups makes me so happy! 🥹💕
I am too late to write this comment cuz doubt you are coming back to check this comment section, but after reacting to 2NE1 the next MUST step would be to react to CL’s HELLO BITCHES. This is a must for All Reactors.
Where are my “Go Away”, “If I Were You”, and “Missing You” peeps here? Those are great ballads! ❤️❤️
You think Go Away is a ballad?
Missing You is really really good!
If I Were You is top 3 of 2NE1 songs to me!
Missing you is so good, especially live!
Yes, Missing You and If I Were You are so damn good

Some of their ballads that I recommend also include “if I were you” and “missing you”!
They still queen. ... Ty for this reaction, just love them ,how I love old K-pop
Yes that guy is Lee Soo Hyuk. He started as a model and became an actor. I think he still in YG too.
2ne1 is unique, revolutionary, iconic. I miss them so much. Thanks for this reaction!

how did i not know that lee soo hyuk appeared in 2NE1’s mv like 1000 times omg. and yes, he is gdragon’s husband lmao
Lonely and Ugly is my fave song because it is so heartbreaking to know that is how they feel at that time and i can also relate to that...🥺
You should react to the live stage of It Hurts and Lonely. It's really good. Thank you very much for this reaction! 💗💗
Yes, that was him Gdragon's bff , Lee Soo hyuk.
Thanks for continuing to react to 2ne1. Reactions to our girls are hard to come by these days

15:28 Yes that's Minzy, the Eromaknae. She's 18 here.
Not you thinking “I Love You” was going to be a ballad 😭💃🏻🕺🏻🪩

I love you is for the hoes 💕

2NE1 - MISSING U is another great ballad istg
I really wanna see your reaction to Go Away cause it blew my mind that 2NE1 took it there
Yes, the guy in IT HURTS MV is LEE SOO HYUK. GDs friend. Also, the MV was released on Oct.31 2010, hence the theme is surprise! - Halloween 🎃
You need to check 2ne1 live performances, they are known for that, you'll be shocked in a good way
Yep, that was MINZY the maknae. She's known as the "eromaknae" coz of her sexy dance moves despite of being younger. 😅😅😅
You should check out there live performances. It’s definitely a worth watching ❤
Overall, yes more 2NE1! they are amazing ^^
Dive into their live performances! Sketchbook's If I were you and Fire, and SBS It hurts are 😘🤌
You need to watch their live performances, it's even better than the m/v's. 2ne1 is known for their stage presence.
Omg I just remember that BIGBANG made a parody of I ” Love you” and “I’m the best”, you should check that out, it’s hilarious
PLEASE ALSO KINDLY CHECK THEY'RE LIVE PERFORMANCES!!! THANK UUUUU❤️
You have to watch their live performance of crush they are in the gold and black suits
Park Bom has one of if not the best female voice in all of kpop. She makes it sound effortless. I can recognize her voice anywhere 🩷
The things I would do just to have them again.🤧
Please react IF I WERE YOU and their COME BACK HOME UNPLUGGED, their live performances in Yu Hi Yeol are epic too
If my math is right (which it probably isn't), Minzy - the maknae - was recently turned 18 for the release of I love You (her birthday is in January, this was released in July of that year). She turned 29 this year so if this was in 2012, then yeah, I think she was 18.
my recommendation for next reaction "happy", "go away"..
also "if i were you" and "missing you" (these two are my favorite 2ne1 ballad)
