Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
Despite the fact that YG Entertainment officially announced the disbandment of 2NE1 last November, three of the members (no Minzy) reportedly reunited in secret and filmed a music video overseas on January 3.

That was later confirmed to be true, and they will be releasing a last song, titled “GOOD BYE“, on January 21 along with the music video.

YG Entertainment issued a statement confirming the news.
YG Entertainment confirmed the news of 2NE1’s return as they stated, “The members of 2NE1 were sad that they weren’t able to say their final goodbyes to fans after their sudden disbandment, so they’ve come together for one last song.” The agency stated that CL, Sandara Park, and Park Bom have already finished recording the song and have also filmed a music video. They added, “2NE1 was much-loved, not just in Korea, but all around the world, and they will be saying their official last goodbyes through this upcoming song.”
This is definitely surprising given that YGE’s official position is that the group’s contracts expired May of last year, and that only Sandara and CL were re-signed to the company. Perhaps in retrospect after the abrupt and unceremonious disbandment news, they ended up working out a deal for a send-off song with Park Bom, and that’s probably the best for all parties involved (including YGE, who get to milk this a bit longer). Well, I guess except for Minzy, who’s already with another company.
