Sandara deserves appreciation for keeping the 2NE1 members close

I feel like this Coachella reunion happened thanks to her. If there's any member from the group who really wanted this reunion, it's her. She's made efforts to stay in touch with the others and support their solo projects. She and Bom even did a song together.

On a variety show, she expressed remorse for not appreciating their time together, admitting she felt insecure about being "unneeded" or "less talented." She just wanted to do things over again and actually enjoy the process instead of worrying, but couldn't because they were disbanded.

Dara might not be the member you think of when 2NE1 comes up, but she's kind of like the Jisoo of the group.

I read that it was actually CL’s idea to perform at Coachella, but I also think it was Dara who made them never loose contact and stick together. I mean this has always been her hidden main job in 2ne1 she kept the balance in the Group. These type of people often don’t see how much they are needed.

I'm not surprised. CL is definitely the outspoken leader when it comes to making these things happen. It was also her idea for them to perform as a group during their last performance together, the one before Coachella. It would have been a CL solo stage otherwise.

Dara played an instrumental role in keeping them in high spirits. It's easy to notice this her mini reunions with the others throughout the years. It's very admirable to see.
