TRANSLATIONS

No matter what happens
Even when the sky is falling down
I’ll promise you
That I’ll never let you go
Oh~~~Oh~~Oh~~~oh~~Oh~~~oh~~Yeah~~~
You, even when I fall, you help me up without shaking one bit
with an unfaltering gaze
And You, during those hard times and until the end, you hold
Both of my hands and stay with me
I might be a shabby person who has never done anything for you
But for today, I am singing this song just for you
Tonight, within those two eyes, and your smile
I can see all the pain you’re trying to hide from me
You and I together. It’s just feel alright
I will never leave you and no matter what anybody says, I’ll be there to protect you
You and I together, don’t ever let go my hands
I’ll never say “goodbye” to you, even when this world ends
Just like all of the others,
I’m sure our love will change a little bit at a time
But please don’t be sad
Hopefully I will be someone who you can trust like a close friend
and someone you can lean onto
I promise you that I’m be right here baby
I might be a shabby person who has never done anything for you
But for today, I am singing this song just for you
Tonight, within those two eyes, and your smile
I can see all the pain you’re trying to hide from me
You and I together. It’s just feel alright
I will never leave you and no matter what anybody says, I’ll be there to protect you
You and I together, don’t ever let go my hands
I’ll never say “goodbye” to you, even when this world ends
I close my eyes lightly whenever those lonely nights come to me
I no longer fear when your breath holds me
No one in the world can replace you
You are the only one in I’ll be there for you baby
You and I together. It’s just feel alright
I will never leave you and no matter what anybody says, I’ll be there to protect you
You and I together, don’t ever let go my hands
I’ll never say “goodbye” to you, even when this world ends
just you and I
Forever
and ever..

After 2NE1′s Park Bom’s solo song was released, tears came steaming out of her eyes.

On the morning of the 21st, Park Bom had released her solo song, Don’t Cry, through a digital single. At the same time, she had swept all the charts at #1, achieving an ‘all kill’ for the second time after You & I.

YG representatives stated on this day through a telephone call with OSEN, “Park Bom’s song was released online, and at approximately 1AM, she phoned Teddy who had produced the song and burst into tears. The moment Park Bom had started crying, Teddy knew something was up and took the call while shocked and nervous. “

They added, “By the looks of it, when she had saw that her song placed #1 on various sites, Park Bom wanted to express her thanks to Teddy. Also, as the first ‘runner’ in the 2NE1 comeback, she was swarmed by relief and burden at the same time, and thus started crying. It seems that she was very worried to lead the 2NE1 comeback with her solo.“

Park Bom is currently dominating the music charts, with this so-called ‘through-the-roof’ force. From the moment after it was released, she swept not only on Melon, but also Dosirak, Soribada, M.NET, Bugs, Monkey3, and other representative Korean music charts, and achieved the status of ‘all-kill’.

These days, many girl groups and popular singers are making their comebacks and doing their promotions. Park Bom didn’t come back with the rest of 2NE1, but instead as a solo female singer. The phenomenon of her all-kill on the music charts have caused several to show their curiosity and interest towards Park Bom.

‘Don’t Cry’ is a fast-tempo R&B dance song with a piano melody and a house beat that matches it well. It was produced by the representative producer of 2NE1′s previous hit songs, ‘I don’t care’, ‘Fire’, ‘Can’t Nobody’, and ‘Go Away’. In addition, Park Bom’s previous single, ‘YOU & I’ was also a production of Teddy. The majority of netizens are commenting, ‘It’s a track that exceeds his previous work.’

Meanwhile, YG Entertainment will be revealing 2NE1′s new songs every three weeks, starting with Park Bom’s solo, and utilizing a differentiated promotion system.

Girl Group, 2NE1, members, Park Bom and Sandara Park’s recent baseball game appearance became a hot issue.
Last June 13th, the Lotte Giants VS Hanhwa Eagles went against each other at a baseball game held at the Sajik Baseball Stadium, in Busan. In the event, Sandara Park showed her pitching skills as she donned the Lotte Giants uniform and stood at the pitcher’s mound.
The highlight of the day was Sandara’s pitch. Her expression as she pitched the ball was cute. The baseball cap which was a bit too big for her head, plus the too big gloves on her thin arms, added to her cute image.
On the other hand, another member, Park Bom stood at the batter’s corner in her hot, sexy image. Park Bom, standing to bat, exposed her thighs in shorts, wearing her matching Lotte Giants jacket and cap. The effect of Park Bom’s “Lettuce diet” was made very apparent in her sexy figure, while she was swinging her bat as hard as she could.
The Lotte Giants, who were playing in their home court, showed the pictures of the girls in their official website. Netizens showed hot reaction with the photos.
“Why are so cute, Sandara Park?” “I completely envy Park Bom’s legs,” “Park Bom, how did you lose weight so fast?” “Sandara Park’s face looked so cute,” were some of the comments. Meanwhile, netizens commented to Park Bom’s lettuce diet with, “Let’s all eat lettuce,” suggesting amusement and interest.

Park Sisters – Best Friends Forever! ^^ I truly love it when Bom updates photos of her and Dara together. Time and time again Dara has said that Bom is her bestfriend while Bom has always said that Dara is like her vitamin. You can really tell that both of them are true friends. Let’s not forget the fact that Bom loves to update about Dara



In 2NE1, who always attracts the most attention from fans is Sandara Park, for the media, Dara is their sweetheart. However, when talking about their success, Park Bom is the pillar of the group. Through the other members’s opinion, Park Bom is a kind sister, she always cares for her younger sisters and brothers and she does many things to help other people, too. That’s why her beloved sisters call her with a really nice name - "a kind unni" (unni = older sister).

Dara & Bom @ Nikon Talk Show



Do you remember the Stitch (Lilo & Stitch) photo of 2NE1‘s Minzy from a couple months back? Well, it looks like there’s another Stitch!
2NE1′s Sandara Park revealed a picture of Park Bom through her me2day. The picture revealed Bom in a Stitch costume, looking at the computer monitor. Dara commented:
Innocent girl Park Bom! She keeps wearing Stitch mask at home. This is not staged! She was sitting there exactly like that and I was amazed, so I took a picture. She doesn’t eat corn these days yet she is still kind.
The “2010 Seoul Doll Fair” is a convention for dollmakers and businesses to gather round and be introduced to dolls from not only Korea, but from all over the world. The theme for this year’s fair concentrated on exhibiting dolls that were creative and very difficult to craft.
Among the various projects exhibited at the fair was a stand dedicated to teddies inspired by 2NE1. Members Dara and Bom attended the fair, and played around with the four teddies that were supposed to represent one of Korea’s hottest girl groups.

A old photoset of 2NE1 BFFs Park Bom and Sandara Park has been revealed!
On July 31st, an anonymous netizen posted this picture under the title, “Past photo of 2NE1′s Dara“. 
This series of sticker photos show both members having fun with the camera, as they hold up V-signs and pose cutely. The captions in most of the photos read, “Dara and Bom“, in addition to “Da YG girls“.
Netizens commented, “These two look very close“, “They look good“, and “2NE1 FOREVER!“.
