2NE1 made their debut in 2009 under YG Entertainment, and later became one of the most successful second-generation K-pop acts. They released a slew of hits throughout their career, including ‘Fire’, ‘I Am The Best’, ‘Come Back Home’ and many others.
The girl group’s reunion comes just a month after they confirmed that they met with YG Entertainment founder Yang Hyun-suk. At the time, according to the agency, they shared an “extremely meaningful” two-hour discussion.
