2NE1 Sandara Park talks about the opportunity she was given to be a singer. For the 2nd episode of Strong Heart aired on SBS on 13th October, Sandara Park said, “I came down to Korea from the Philippines and Yang HyunSeok who trains singers in Hiphop music told me, ‘You cannot be a singer’.”
She added, “So he persuaded me to do acting. And then when they decided to form a new girlgroup, I was anticipating but I was not given any opportunities to practise.” “And there was once a chance where I can go sing at the karaoke with Se7en and GDragon. I thought if I do well at the karaoke session, I may be given some opportunity. So I prepared a song and went with them and the atmosphere was fun and then I said ‘I want to try for once’.”
She continued, “After a few days, I filmed in the practice room and showed to president Yang and for the first time he said, ‘I saw potential in you. I am going to give you a month’s time’. And with that I became a singer.”
Meanwhile, during the episode, the 2NE1 members each revealed some truthful talks and also powerful dance performances.
Excerpt from an article written by Glen P. Sibonga at Philippine Entertainment Portal
Sandara Park is loyal and a wife material according to ex-lover Wednesday, October 7, 2009 01:08 PM
Joseph Bitangcol was asked about the present status of his relationship with Sandara Park who is now famed in Korea as a member of the girl band 2ne1.
He said, “We are okay. We are good friends.”
Do they still have communication?
He said, “We don’t have communication right now. She is busy with her career in Korea…”
Joseph said that he wasn’t able to get the new mobile number of Sandara the last time they had a reunion with other Star Circle Quest members (when Sandara had a three-day vacation last August of this year).
Joseph said, “I thought she is still using her old mobile number (which we use for exchanging communication) but I found out after she left that she already changed her number. When we met up, I was quite reserved as her road manager was always around. The two of us did not have a chance to have private talk. The next day, we planned on going out. I thought we would have a chance to talk but it did not push through.”
Is it possible for their love relationship to be renewed?
Joseph answered, “It is still uncertain. It is difficult at this point as she is preoccupied with her career in Korea. If we will get back together, it would be a long distance affair; it would be difficult. But I’m not closing my doors on the possibility of getting back together.
Does he still love Sandara?
He answered, “Yes, the love is still there. Our relationship lasted for three years. It was the longest relationship that I had. In all the girlfriends that I had, she is the one I loved the most. I still think of her. There are times that I would think of her condition, if she is doing okay.”
Did he regret parting ways with Sandara?
He said, “The reason for regret is knowing the fact that she is loyal. If you get to know her, you would know that Sandy is indeed a wife material (possesses the good traits of a wife). I am saddened because she could have been a fitting lifetime partner (a wife). We both know the reason of our break up. It was a mutual decision.”
Since the break up is already a long time ago, will he be able to share the reason behind it?
Joseph begged off, “It is better not to share it and just keep it to ourselves (him & Sandara).”
After news went out that GDragon and Sandara Park will once again perform their collaboration ‘Hello’ on coming Chuseok special SBS ‘Idol Big Show’, a photo of the performance which was revealed has caught the attention of many netizens.
The photo was spread rapidly amongst netizens on online noticeboards, and the photo was called the “GDragon Sandara Park Kiss”.
This will be the 2nd time the 2 will perform the song ‘Hello’ after the first live performance of it on Global Gathering recently.
Many netizens thought the 2 looked good together.
Can’t wait for their performance on 5th September!
Good Morning!^.^do you sleep well!?I sleep very well,i went to bed again after waking up and taking shower!I have eaten breakfast with others and currently talking with TATAMI!^.^Oh,manager is coming,till here today,going to salon!!!
Who would have thought that yet another track from YG Entertainment would be accused of plagiarism this week? Up on the chopping block this time is 2NE1’s Sandara Park and her solo single “Kiss” feat. CL. Netizens have begun to say that this recent track is another case of YG plagiarism from a Western artist, this time from Sean Kingston’s “Take You There“. They say this section of Park’s song is plagiarized- “Love is Dangerous / Your eyes are so poisonous / now shaking Two of us / But we just feel so good”.
Look, I don’t know what’s going on with the producers or the netizens or Mr. YG himself; but something needs to change if Kpop ever hopes to be taken seriously on the world stage. I’m not writing this to say whether I think these new allegations are solid or not; because in the end it will be Sony’s decision. But, I do think chief executive producer Yang Hyun Suk should think about hiring some new producers to avoid these “incidents” in the future.
You must have seen 2NE1's Sandara and Lee Minho's Kiss scene in "Kiss " MV before right,if you are a fan of the duo and the song "Kiss",then you must be very interested in the scene behind the MV..
The video is out today and please enjoy the video!!
Attention Daragon supporters! Today is your lucky day! G-Dragon recently did a showcase at Global Gathering, and videos and fan cams of his performances are already clogging the message boards and blogs online.
G-Dragon allegedly performed five songs from his debut album, including “Heartbreaker” and “Breathe”, and of particular note, the first live performance of “Hello.” Don’t believe me? Photo evidence to prove it, baby:
I tend to run hot and cold on Dara (I like her best when she’s not singing), but “Hello” is one of my favorite songs on Heartbreaker, and let’s face it, they look damn cute together. I’m just hoping, to quote a concerned netizen, “all i wish now is for Dara to make it through the week without fans threatening her.”
A fan cam is already out so you can experience the Dara/G-Dragon chemistry live!
For all you Excel experts and point takers, here are the overall online sale rankings for the third week in September.
And proving that it is a “trope as old as dirt” (tm tvtropes.com) controversy has led to overwhelming success. Yesasia and Hanteo have reported that 2pm’s ‘Time For Change’ and ‘Hottest Time of Day’ are on their top ten selling album of the week. So, a small comfort for them, I hope. G-Dragon’s leading on most lists as usual, but Sandara Park’s song, “Kiss” has been doing well, also. I’m still still waiting for Bom’s single, thank you very much.

2NE1 member Sandara Park’s solo debut song ‘Kiss’ has went up to #1 on the 2nd week of September on Mnet weekly chart on Mnet.com for its first week on the chart.
The song ‘Kiss’ went up to the #1 spot 4 days after its first reveal, and also the MV to the song which features Boys Over Flowers actor Lee MinHo revealed on 10th September has also gained the song much interests.
With that Kim TaeWoo is at #2 with his comeback song ‘Love Rain’ rising up 20 positions, singer Lee SeungChul’s ‘Love is Difficult’ also rose up 40 positions to be at #8.
On the chart this week, it seems that the solo singers are gaining the influence in Kpop – of the top 10 positions, 5 positions were occupied by solos singers. This is something new from the era of the girlgroups in summer.
GDragon has fallen 2 positions down to #3 with his solo debut song ‘Heartbreaker’ and another solo singer Baek Ji Young is up #7 with ‘My Ear’s Candy’.
And 8eight member Lee Hyun’s solo debut ‘30 minutes ago’ is also doing strong at #10 for its first week on the chart.
YG artistes GDragon and Sandara Park are recently in the spotlight for their comical caps.
GDragon was seen wearing a cap with the words ‘Got-mi-nam’ or short of ‘becoming a pretty boy at once’ when he went up on stage to receive his 2nd Mutizen on 13th September.
Also on the same day, 2NE1 Sandara Park uploaded a photo of herself lying on the sofa wearing a cap which wears ‘puberty stage’ on her me2day account.
With that netizens say, “YG singers have a fun sense of fashion, and I like it”.
Sandara wrote on her me2day account, “Even though there was the first experience of first broadcast, it is our first time doing last broadcast. Our members really practise hard and put in much effort. A round of applause~ After the performance, we hugged each other, reluctant that this is the last performance. From tomorrow, we will resume being trainees. Hwaiting!”
2NE1 has ended their 1st minialbum promotions on 13th September and will be preparing for their upcoming album in October.
Meanwhile, Sandara Park’s solo debut song ‘Kiss’ has taken GDragon’s ‘Heartbreaker’ off music charts.
The song ‘Kiss’ is #1 up on Monkey3 chart for the 2nd week of September, taking GDragon’s ‘Heartbreaker’ off the #1 spot on the chart after 3 weeks.
The song was revealed on 7th September and it has received overwhelming responses, going up to the #1 spot on real time charts, and daily charts. And it is considered a feat given that Sandara will not be performing the song on broadcast shows.
Also, the MV to the song ‘Kiss’ also features actor Lee MinHo and the 2 had locked lips for more than 100 times for the filming of the MV.

Dara's solo song, "Kiss" was featured in the CF / MV Teaser as well, as the lyrics of a girl needing her man to be more aggressive, and just simply kissing her corresponded to the overall plot.
According to Monkey3(www.monkey3.co.kr), Sandara Park’s "Kiss" went on the chart at #23 on the day of release on th September. And it went up the chart very fast and took the #1 position from G-Dragon with his solo song "Heartbreaker".
A staff from Monkey3 said, "Before Sandra Park's new single was released, there was a lot of interest and anticipation. Upon it's release the response has been overwhelming."
Currently on Cyworld's B&G chart, G Dragon's "Heartbreaker" stands at #4 while Sandara's "Kiss" is at #3.
YG Entertainment has revealed that Sandara Park will be coming out with her own solo digital single named "Kiss!"
With 2NE1 scoring success with their song "I Don't Care," they have been working hard on the rest of the songs they will be performing in the upcoming months. Dara's solo song named "Kiss," was originally planned to be included in the new 2NE1 album due in October. "Kiss" is written by no other than Teddy himself, who composed most of the 2NE1's songs.
There were recent talks about Park Bom or CL releasing their own solos in the near future, but YG Entertainment caught us off guard by announcing a solo song for Dara before the other members.
The song is said to be very catchy and danceable, just like "Lollipop," and it is to have CL featured as a rapper. It's pretty much about a girl wanting the guy to be more aggressive, and wanting him to kiss her.
YG Entertainment stated, "All the members of 2NE1 have their own strong style. Starting with "Kiss," we will slowly unveil the other members' talents and styles."
2NE1 is scheduling to perform "Pretty Boy" on Ingikayo this week. They are performing each song on the album week by week, as a gesture of appreciation to the fans.
SNSD' Yuri performed Jennifer Lopez's "Get Right" om Music Core yesterday while 2NE1's Sandara Park also performed the same song on Kim Jung Eun's Chocolate,the videos are just below incase you have not seen them.
So in your opinion,who has done better for "Get Right"??
