Throwback: 2NE1 Reaction pt 1 - Fire (street ver), Can't Nobody, Lonely, I'm the Best MVs

[@themastermind5638]

It's crazy to think that Minzy was barely 15 when she debuted with 2ne1 and already looked like a seasoned pro from the jump. Oh and by the way, you literally just reacted to one of the best Kpop groups in the history of Kpop.

[@roguereacts]

they did look soooo seasoned, what a debut! I can see why it's concerned one of the best songs!

[@humptywillard]

The first K-pop group I heard and liked before I even knew what K-pop was! CL my OG bias. They truly walked so Blackpink could run!

[@roguereacts]

they truly did! I loved CL in everything I heard! Can't wait to get to her Solo stuff!

[@Enchantedpluto]

CL is my bias of all biases in kpop too!!

[@jihyoshusband]

in 2011 “i am the best” was MY OBSESSION and i didn’t even know who 2NE1 was nor what kpop was 😭

[@roguereacts]

it's just soooo good!!!

[@hong4971]

2ne1 is the first group who introduces the girl crush concept. The first group who had a world tour and the first group who won the MtV Iggy Awards.

[@devil_akira1191]

2NE1 is actually YGE's prototype for hiphop girlgroup. That's why you see a lot of 2NE1 similarities in other YGE girlgroups. Coz they are basically the blueprint....hell, even in other girlgroups from other companies. 2NE1 perfected the formula. So everyone is using it to create hiphop girlgroups.

[@soniaiboyako4023]

My godmother who literally has no clue as to what kpop is beyond the fact that i'm a ONCE (and i'm not sure she knows what that even means) has had I Am The Best in her car radio for years now lmao it's the first song that plays if you turn it on, i feel crazy every time i hear that bassy synth or whatever it is at the start like talk about a classic ! The MAMA 2015 performance for it is worth a watch too (especially since you've also heard Fire). As for b-sides i heavily recommend If I Were You (and the Yoo Heeyeol's Sketchbook performance) - i've sent this in the community tab but i'm saying it again here just in case 💕

[@roguereacts]

hahaha that is AMAZING! that intro is soooo good!

[@lexiemmm]

9:09 that's why I won't ever get tired of saying that fire is the best kpop debut song ever

For 2ne1, I would recommend you to react to their live performances too. They just hit different live!

[@Victor-lr2xr]

Two points: First 2NE1 is greater than the sum of its parts. Second 2NE1 is complete and complex. Their songs have meaning, they do pop, ballads, regae and all. If you want to understand them you have to see it all. MV, acoustic sessions, and live performance all tell a different part of the story.

[@showbiztsika]

My ONE and only fave kpop Girl Group 👑👑👑👑

[@roguereacts]

I can see why they are amazing!! 🥰

[@bobby666666]

Can't Nobody has a complete English version too. Park Bom is the one with the great vocals. She lived in America in her teens and whilst playing Football (Soccer) she saw her friend in goal collapse and unfortunately died. This lead to mental health issues. Whilst back at home, a relative sent some tablets which were on the banned list in Korea and this did cause controversy. This meant the group was on hold and because of this Minzy left. The group had one more single and the group was forced to quit by YG. Minzy also had mental health issues as she felt lonely. She is quite younger than some of the other members. She should not have been put in that position. Minzy was featured in the second series of Sisters Slam Dunk. I have watched both series and they were brilliant. The second series also featured Jessi too. All are on KZbin. I don't know if you have planned to watch EXID on your throwback series. They released a 10th anniversary album last year. Solji is one of the best vocalists in South Korea.

[@beauregarden]

Slight correction: Minzy is only 3 years younger than CL, she's 9 years younger than Dara and 10 younger than Bom. But other than that this comment is very accurate and informative Edit: Yes for an EXID reaction!

[@bobby666666]

[@bdcmxsyjds8935]

It wasn't Bommie's aunt who sent those pills to her(her aunt passed away while Bommie was debuting as 2NE1 member(on 2NE1tv second season she finally went to her aunt grave and paid respect to her, the one person she loved as much as she was her mom, her aunt🤧).. To be fair, it was Bommie's Mom who called her doctor in USA cuz she noticed Bom wasn't good again(Bommie stopped to taking her Adderall treatment while she was a trainee and moved back to SKorea).. So her doctor prescribed her Adderall pills again and her Mom bought them on line... As far i remember one of the reason knetz didn't believe in Bommie's innocence was because her Mom gave Bommie's grandma address for the delivery of these pills... Bommie didn't even know what her Mom was doing😔.....my personal thoughts is Bommie's aunt death made her unable to control her ADHD(mental disorder), kinda like what happened when her friend died😔

2ne1 and Girls Generation ruled 2nd Generation kpop GG wise

[@beauregarden]

4:32 oh if you think these are long MVs wait til you react to T-ara 😂 their MVs are basically movies lol So there was kind of a set mold for what a kpop girl group looked and sounded like back in 2009 (think early Girls' Generation-esque) and 2ne1 basically kicked that whole idea to rubble. They pretty much invented the girl crush concept in kpop and after they debuted the concepts for girl groups generally became much more varied. Yeah YG literally did take the formula for 2ne1 as inspo for Blackpink. He said he wanted to make another 2ne1 "but pretty" -_- which is insulting to both groups tbh. I won't go down the rabbit hole of how YG threw 2ne1 out to rot, because this comment will turn into a 4 page essay 🤣 26:56 they were active from 2009 to 2014 as a 4 member group and after that only released one more song in 2016 after Minzy had left to say 'Goodbye'. *Casually side-eyeing YG * They burned for a short time but very brightly. All the members have solo careers now (Dara just had her official debut) and they reunited last April for coachella! Also as a sidenote, CL was very much a part of my gay awakening 😂 Thank you for reacting to my first ever kpop group! Can't wait to see your other 2ne1 videos 😁

[@joc.4992]

Yes put T*ARA on your list you will be blown away, FYI your not ready for T*ARA.

[@roguereacts]

[@roguereacts]

It just baffles my mind seeing videos like 4 mins long 🤣 I'm hearing that YG did them dirty! And for him to call them not pretty...HELLO? do you have eyes Sir???? Just WILD lol I can also see way the gay awakening happened lol

[@jorgeenriqueponce2978]

CL is the best female rapper, you have to react to their solos and lives, the legendary Queens are the best on live stage

I 1000% put her on my list! 😊

[@InCaseYouDie13]

The dude in the background of Fire was G Dragon from the Group Big Bang. Both groups were label mates and trained together and did a lot of promotions together.

[@roguereacts]

OH! well that's very good to know, I had no idea LOL 😬

[@mikeingbritson2021]

I'm surprised you hadn't heard "I Am The Best" before. Apple used it in an early iTunes or iPod commercial that was everywhere. Lol. I don't know that much about them, but I know that Sandara Park released a mini album just a week or so ago and an MV for "Festival." She also has an old solo video for a song called "Kiss" which I love.

[@roguereacts]

Yeah no I don't ever remember hearing that song and if a company used it like 10+ years ago, my brain definitely doesn't remember 🤣🤣🤣

Excellence by the way these were the songs in the 2ne1 BabyMonster mashup dance ,which I believe you watched?

[@roguereacts]

Wait was it?! Now I have to go back and rewatch that mashup lol

[@khl_z8]

That was the reaction i was waiting for 😂. That same face when you react to Dreamcatcher 🤣🤣. React to their live stage. They are the queen, the og of live vocal. You won’t regret. For me, they perform better live. 2NE1 is the one in my heart before Dreamcatcher. Yahh, i like cool girls, unique characters 😊

awww thank you! hope you enjoyed the videos! 🥰

[@kimsnaps]

I came as fast as I could ahh my blackjack heart is happy today thanks to you, the one with red hair that you highlighted so much is Bom, she and all of them actually have individual songs, in the past when listening to kpop was "for weirdos" before the Boom of BTS, 2ne1 and Psy gave the world a good taste of what Korea had to offer, I'm going to wait for the 3 videos that you must have already recorded to come out to recommend the ones you missed but I will recommend the unplugged version of "Come back home" in advance since i don't think that you will watch that one.. and I support those who also recommend the presentation of the MAMA 2015, so that you admire their stage presence, with nothing more to say until next time, take care and say hi to Ollie too

You should start to watch their live performances which by the way are unmatched. The birth of 2NE1 brought the high end fashion in KPop. Fashion houses started noticing them, became their muses like Chanel, Moschino, lvmh, alexander mcqueen, alexander wang, etc alongside the boygroup Bigbang. 3rd gen is the start where some Kpop artists became ambassadors, and in 4th/5th gen, every group has a one or more or everyone is ambassadors of luxury brands.

The one with the vocals was Park Bom (considered one of the best vocalist in that era for 2nd gen groups), CL (the leader, best female rapper of 2nd gen), Minzy (probably one of the best female dancers of 2nd gen), Sandara Park (probably an all rounder, fun fact: she is the sister of Thunder from MBLAQ) And yes, 2NE1 is from YG. And yes, black pink was technically considered the second coming of 2NE1. This group definitely solidified the hip hop style for female groups. 2NE1 and Big Bang were the top hip hop groups during 2nd gen
