Female K-pop 2NE1 has been set to break out from their long hiatus and comeback with a brand new album next month.
2NE1 is returning to the music scene in 11 months after rolling out the second mini-album in July last year and they are also planning to perform on televised music programs after the release, an official from YG Entertainment told 10Asia in a phone interview this morning.
Being one of the leading artists in the mainstream K-pop and fashion, 2NE1 has produced smashing hit songs that inspired many music lovers in Korea and abroad.
Especially, the group's electronic dance track "UGLY," which has self-criticising lyrics that contrasts to the song's upbeat tune, has powered the album to become one of the top-selling albums in Korea and has been covered by countless global fans on YouTube.
