2NE1 (Hangul: 투애니원; RR: Tuaeniwon; pronounced "Two ne one" or "To Anyone" or "twenty-one") is a South Korean girl group created by YG Entertainment. First appearing in a Cyon commercial campaign with Big Bang for LG Telecom, their debut single "Fire" was released on May 6, 2009 and on May 17 the song premiered on SBS's Inkigayo.
The group consists of Lee Chae Rin (CL) (Hangul: 이채린), Park Bom (Bom) (Hangul: 박봄), Park Sandara (Dara) (Hangul: 박산다라), and Gong Minji (Minzy) (Hangul: 공민지).
The group's name 2NE1 stands for "New Evolution of the 21st Century"/"21c New Evolution".
The group was first mentioned by the press in late 2008, YG Entertainment announced that the group would consist of four members and debut sometime in May 2009. The company stated that the group had trained for 4 years, and that their debut album would contain songs produced by 1TYM Leader Teddy Park. The group's name was initially announced as "21". However, due to the discovery of a singer with the same name, the group was quickly renamed "2NE1".
2009: Debut and rise to fame
2NE1's first song was "Lollipop", digitally released on March 27, 2009. The song was created for LG to promote their Cyon phone, and it was a joint release with Big Bang; the commercial/music video debuted on March 28, 2009. Although it was not a promoted single (as it was an advertisement song, there were problems with network chart eligibility), "Lollipop" proved to be a strong chart hit, going to #1 on various online charts and topping music television network M.Net's online chart for four weeks in a row.
On April 30, Yang Hyun-suk revealed that 2NE1's debut song would be a hip-hop/reggae song, and that it would be digitally released on May 6, 2009. Titled "Fire", the song was fully written and produced by 1TYM's Teddy Park. Teasers of the song were released on their official website at the beginning of May, with a 20-second clip released on May 1.
"Fire" was released as planned on May 6, with two versions of the music video — a "space" version and a "street" version — released the same day. The videos received over one million views in a day. The group's first performance of the song was on May 17, 2009, on SBS's Inkigayo, beginning the group's activities.
Both the song and the group became popular online, with the song topping M.Net's online chart and the group's name becoming a top search term. The group was also rewarded with three Cyworld Digital Music Awards, with both "Lollipop" and "Fire" winning "Song of the Month" awards and the group winning "Rookie of the Month" for May 2009. They received their first Mutizen award during their fourth stage performance in SBS Inkigayo (Popular Song) on June 14, 2009. They received their second Mutizen award on SBS Inkigayo on June 21, 2009. Along with their awards successes, 2NE1 signed a deal with Fila to become the new models for their commercial campaign 2 days after 2NE1's Mutizen win.
"I Don't Care" was released as the second single on July 1, 2009, with promotions starting in early July. YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun Suk stated at the time that the song would demonstrate a softer, more feminine image.
An unplugged "reggae" version of the song was performed on SBS's Inki Gayo music show, signaling the end of promotions for the song. However, due to the remix's popularity, it was released to digital outlets on September 3, 2009.
Along with three other groups representing Korea, 2NE1 performed in the 6th Asia Song Festival in September 2009, where they received the 2009's "Asian Newcomer's Award." In September, the group briefly promoted "Pretty Boy", "In the Club", and "Let's Go Party" on various Korean music shows before ending promotions for their album. After ending their promotions, each member began releasing their own solo singles. Dara was the first member to release a single and revealed CL'S unique rapping skills; "Kiss" featuring fellow member CL, was used in a Cass commercial. Bom then released "You and I", which was promoted in the fall of 2009. CL and Minzy then released "Please Don't Go" after Bom finished promoting her single. All three solo singles hit #1 on various online charts, and all three solo singles were performed at the Mnet Asian Music Awards as part of the 21st Street Musical. It was then proved that CL the group's leader was the most popular member beating Dara with 296 votes.
2010: Return to group activities, and "To Anyone"
On February 9, 2010, "Nal Ddarahaebwayo" (Korean: "날 따라 해봐요", "Try to Follow Me") was released to digital outlets, without prior notice and being used as a theme song for Samsung Corby Folder. They will be releasing their first studio album, "To Anyone", on September 9, 2010. Three songs from the album will be title tracks and the music videos will be released on midnight of the album's release date.
The first studio and full length album, To Anyone, was slated for release on September 9, 2010 and was a big success. The album contains 12 tracks including three title songs, namely "Clap Your Hands", "Go Away" and "Can't Nobody", which were promoted simultaneously. They won #1 on M! Countdown for the song Clap Your Hands on the day of their comeback, followed by a K-Chart win the next day on Music Bank for the Song Go Away, and a mutizen a week after their Inkigayo comeback for the song Can't Nobody.
To promote the album, the group made its first entertainment show appearance as a group on KBS's variety-talk show Seungseung Janggu.
On October 21, Yang Hyun Suk announced that 2NE1 would be releasing a follow up song on October 31.
Later revealed to be "It Hurts (Slow)" (Korean: "아파"). It would be first performed on SBS Inkigayo. The music video for the song is directed by Kim Hye Jung, the same director for G-Dragon's "Butterfly." The music video was released on November 1 and was themed for Halloween. In addition, on October 28, it was revealed that 2NE1's official record label in Japan will be Avex, and that To Anyone would be re-released in Japan on December 8, 2010. However, the release was delayed to an indefinite time. The group also promoted in Thailand, where To Anyone released on October 28, 2010. On November 26, 2NE1 released the single "Don't Stop the Music" as a "special gift for Thai fans"
2011: International expansion
Originally, 2NE1's Japanese debut was planned for December 2010, but this was delayed to February of 2011. In addition, there are plans to release a new Korean album between May and June. 2NE1's American promotions with will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas has no set time for release yet, because of the Black Eyed Peas' new album release, The Beginning. On January 19, "Can't Nobody (Eng Ver)" was released on Recochoku as ringtones and ringback tones. On February 2nd, the "Can't Nobody (Eng Ver)" music video was made available for download through iTunes Japan. On February 22nd, Avex announced that 2NE1 will release their Japanese debut single "Go Away", previously used as a Korean promotional single, on March 9th, 2011.
Music Style
In 2NE1's debut extended play 2NE1, the group was noted for a distinct style. "Lollipop" is noted for it's strong pop feel, while debut single "Fire" is predominately categorized as hip hop. "I Don't Care," however, was intended as a song with a reggae feel.
Their comeback album, To Anyone, was marked by a strong shift into electronic music. "Go Away", the most successful promotional single from the album, is classified as dance. However, songs like "It Hurts (Slow)" are R&B, a style that characterized their first EP. The three title tracks, "Clap Your Hands," "Go Away," and "Can't Nobody" were noted for their lasting impressions, as they topped music charts weeks after release.
Thematically, 2NE1's music expresses the feelings of independence and female empowerment. Songs like "Go Away" and "I Don't Care" reflect this theme of their music.
