2NE1 was founded in 2009 by YG Entertainment, home of BigBang, AKMU, BabyMonster, and yes, Blackpink. They were a huge girl group in the 2nd generation, but disbanded in 2016, before reuniting in 2024 for a 15th anniversary tour. Right now, just like at their formation, they have four members: Park Bom, Dara, Minzy, and Chaerin (CL), who range from thirty to forty.
Here are my credentials: very few. I know of 2NE1 and I’ve heard some of their songs, because it’s difficult not to when you’re a kpop fan. I know a couple of the members, like Park Bom (who I watched on Queendom) and CL (who’s a huge soloist now), but nothing much deeper than that. I also know a bit about them from being a former Blink (read more about that here). But, since they’re reuniting for an anniversary tour, I thought that now would be a good time to take a look at their discography. So let’s get into it!
