2NE1 (CL, Park Bom, Sandara Park, and Gong Min-ji) is a four-member girl group that shook the K-pop scene upon its debut. With its intense concept and unique style, it caught the attention of music fans at home and abroad, quickly emerging as an icon of the times. He built a global fandom with numerous hits, including 'Fire', 'I Don't Care', 'I Am the Best', 'Come Back Home', and became the first Korean girl group to complete a world tour, opening a new chapter in K-pop.
In his first year of debut, he attracted attention as the first girl group to win the Rookie of the Year award and the Grand Prize at the same time, and also recorded that he was the first girl group to post three songs at the same time on the annual chart top 10. It reached 61st place on the Billboard 200 chart, clearly imprinting its presence on the global stage.
In 2022, 2NE1, which drew explosive responses from global fans by performing a surprise full-length performance in Coachella, USA, also sold out the entire concert in Asia last year for the first time in about 10 years and 6 months, attracting a total of 220,000 viewers. 2NE1, which has dominated the stage with charisma and unrivaled style, will once again show the status of K-pop through the halftime performance of the "2025 Coupang Play Series". Fans' expectations are also rising.
"I'm really excited to be on a stage with world-class players and fans," 2NE1 said. "It's even more meaningful to be here as a fan of Son Heung-min." I want to give you a great memory with a great performance," he said.
Meanwhile, in the second match of the '2025 Coupang Play Series', the UEFA Europa League winner Tottenham and Carabao Cup winner Newcastle will face each other in the 'Champion Match', and Coupang Play is also preparing a special ceremony for both teams to reveal their respective trophies before the match.
