2NE1 was a strong representative of the second-generation girl groups that included Orange Caramel, Crayon Pop, and Kara. The group swept trophies at various music awards garnering 43 wins on music broadcasts! 2NE1 also made K-pop girl group history by becoming the first girl group to hold a world tour!
While the group's official activities ended on November 25, 2016, they returned, as a group, to perform at the 2022 Coachella Music Festival six years later. 2NE1 dominated the main stage with their live energy and charisma and dazzled the audience!
2NE1 will meet YG Entertainment's Chairman and Executive Producer, Yang Hyun Suk, to mark its 15th anniversary! A close source to 2NE1 said that the two parties are planning on meeting within the next several days. Other details have been hard to confirm.
