Not 2NE1 being threatened with disbandment because they cant chart at the top of melon...

Wow, YG really hated 2NE1

No one can deny that 2ne1 isn’t one of the best K-pop gg’s of all time. If they’d debuted later when global support for kpop was higher, they would have been in a better position, but I’ll never forgive YG for how they were thrown out and treated like shit.

At least all the members still have a lovely friendship/bond and clearly care about each other. I’m hopeful for a 2ne1 comeback one of these days…

I think maybe YG was going to disband them regardless of where they charted and merely used this as an excuse

If they did chart no.1 I'm sure YHS would've just made up some other BS metric to disband them

"oh you didn't sell a million albums - disband"

Crazy how yg have had groups who don't even smell top 100 several comebacks in a row and all is well but they expected a massive hit or nothing from 2ne1

misogyny

The way YG treated 2ne1 was inhuman. Grown ass men telling teenagers how they are unpretty and the way a song out of melon top 1 was enough to diss their success.

Stupid justification from them but I'm not surprised tbh.

they were grasping at any reason for disbandment

their time was up.

Their disbandment was the saddest thing that has ever happened to K pop imo and the girl group scene has never been the same since. They were the quintessential gg of second gen.
