ASIAPOP BFF

On this show, the four girls met various heroes that lived in different parts of Korea for a day. Starting in Busan and making their way to Seoul, 2NE1 trekked across the country via train with MCs Kim Young Ma, Tak Jae Hoon, Ahn Young Mi and Kim Hyun Chul. Instead of choosing headlining names, MBC put everyday heroes in the spotlight, including an elderly lady who worked in the morning market and made meals for orphans in her community. 2NE1 also met an ahjumma who has donated 23 million won (nearly $18,000 USD) despite having a modest job in the ddeokbokki business.

When the girls returned to Seoul later that day, they performed a special stage with popular hit songs.

During the trip, 2NE1 revealed the people that they were thankful for in 2009. Dara teared up as she admitted, "I thank my members. I was not supposed to be picked as a member of 2NE1, but the three helped me improve my singing and dancing skills." Afterwards, MC Kim Yong Man asked Dara to say "Happy New Year!" in Filipino, and the idol complied cheerfully as her mood brightened again.

The other members also expressed their gratitude for various individuals - CL gave a shoutout to Blackjacks and Minzy thanked her parents.











2NE1 is already quite popular with many kpop fans for their fierce image, so it's great to see this compassionate side of them as well. Check out 2NE1 at YG Ladies, 2NE1's #1 fan forum.
