On the 13th, YG Entertainment stated “2NE1 will have their Korean concerts on the 28th and 29th of next month, at the Olympic Gymnastics Stadium. The world tour will then go on to America, Europe, etc., making a total of 7 countries and 10 cities."
Every song by 2NE1 received much love since their debut in 2009. Last year they were titled “The Best New Band in the World" by MTV IGGY, and they were also selected as the “girl group that hallyu fans like the most" in France.
2NE1 had power and stage presence that is uncommon among girl groups at their first concert last year. The audience sang along to the parade of their hit songs, and this heat was carried on to Japan with 70,000 people. Their Japan tour was a success.
2NE1’s world tour will be held by Live Nation, the same company that is helping Big Bang for their world tour. Live Nation’s worldwide networks and staff will be working with 2NE1.
YG Entertainment also stated “At 2NE1’s world tour ‘New Evolution’, fans will be able to experience advanced performances as we plan to show each member’s skills," and “Every single one of the staff members have worked with worldwide stars before; We will announce more information in the future.
Also, “Seven countries and 10 cities are planned for 2NE1’s world tour, but there is a high chance that more locations will be added."
*NOTE: This makes 2NE1 the first Korean girl group to hold a World Tour headlined solely by themselves.
