Dara Discusses 2NE1 Fans Moving To New Fandoms

On November 10, Dara made a special appearance on BamBam’s YouTube talk show “Bam House” where they engaged in a heart-to-heart conversation. During their discussion, Dara openly shared her thoughts about her fanbase and the changes it has undergone over the years.

She reflected on the size of her fandom today compared to her time with 2NE1. This led to her expressing concerns, particularly because all the former 2NE1 members now belong to different entertainment labels. Dara was worried about the challenges this diversity posed to the group’s fanbase.

“The fandom has significantly diminished,” she said. “Because our group parted away and there are fans who moved to other groups’ (fandoms).”

However, BamBam, who recently reunited with his fellow GOT7 members despite their different labels, provided encouragement. He explained that while it was challenging, he and JB took the initiative to bring the group back together and suggested a similar approach for Dara. He proposed the idea of creating a group chat room and leading the reformation, believing it would be a fantastic and enjoyable endeavor.

Dara acknowledged that some fans had indeed transferred their support to other groups, with many moving to BLACKPINK. She explained that fans who appreciated 2NE1’s style found a similar vibe in BLACKPINK’s music and performances.

Despite this, BamBam offered comforting words. He expressed his belief that if 2NE1 were to make a comeback, regardless of how many fans had transferred or the current state of fan activity, their dedicated supporters would reunite and rally around the group once more.

Sandara Park has since signed with Abyss Company and recently released her self-titled album.
