Thirty-four-year-old South Korean singer Sandara Park also known by her stage name \u2018Dara\u2019, who rose to fame in the Philippines after participating in the 2004 season of talent show Star Circle Quest, reunites with the members of Korean pop group 2NE1 to celebrate their 10-year anniversary despite disbanding in 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

To express their gratitude for the never-ending support of their fans, Dara and the members of 2NE1 – CL, Gong Minzy, and Park Bom – interacted with their fans last Thursday, May 16 by holding Instagram live sessions and blow out candles of a cake. Dara shares with her 7.4 million followers, \u201cWe didn\u2019t expect that we would be given the best fans in the world. We didn\u2019t expect that we would have fans in many parts of the world. To countries who don\u2019t speak and understand our language.\u201d She expresses that 2NE1 is \u201cvery grateful that Blackjacks embraced [2NE1],\u201d referring to their fandom, saying, \u201cbecause Blackjacks were everywhere, we were able to go to different countries. To places we only see on maps. 10 years later, you are still here for us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In the same post, Dara continues to say, \u201c Even when we had drastic hairstyles and outrageous stage costumes, you still loved and supported us. I can\u2019t believe how much you mean to us \u2014 4 Korean girls who just wanted to perform onstage. We can\u2019t thank you enough for the love. How we all wish we can thank each one of you and give you a hug.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The girl group was formed in 2009 under YG Entertainment, popular for their tracks \u201cI Don\u2019t Care,\u201d \u201cCan\u2019t Nobody,\u201d and \u201cLonely.\u201d Blackjacks were shocked in November 2016 after YG Entertainment announced the disbandment, which stated, \u201cAfter much consultation with rest of the members, YG has decided to officially disband 2NE1. 2NE1 has been YG\u2019s signature girl group for the past seven years, so YG is deeply saddened to let them go.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As a final farewell, 2NE1 released a track entitled \u201cGoodbye\u201d in January 2017, which topped the Billboard World Digital Songs chart.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
