[painheart.livejournal.com]

‘Scary newcomer’ 2NE1’s ‘I Don’t Care’ has won the award of the ‘Song of the Month’ on Cyworld Digital Music Awards (DMA) with one of best album sales, renewing the record set by group Big Bang.

Big Bang had won the ‘Song of The Month’ with their previous hit ‘Haru Haru’ and now 2NE1 is back to renew the record set by their seonbae.

Also 2NE1 has received the honours of the highest winning records this year – winning awards with ‘Lollipop’ for the 34th DMA, and also 2 awards with ‘Fire’ on the 35th DMA, and this month they won again with ‘I Don’t Care’.

Not only so, 2NE1 is taking music charts and music shows countdown by storm. ‘I Don’t Care’ has so far won #1 for 3 weeks through on KBS Music Bank, #1 on SBS Inkigayo for 2 weeks through, and also a #1 on Mnet M!Countdown. Also they have sold over 70K copies of their 1st minialbum up till now.

Even though we have many singers and seonbae coming back to release their album recently, 2NE1 continues to sell about 1K album copies per day.

Meanwhile, 2NE1 did the telerecording for SBS ‘Kim JungEun’s Chocoloate’ on 5th August and will be attending the DMA ceremony coming 20th August.

holy damn *-*

But now the only thing I think of when I see 2ne1 and Big Bang in the same post is "I go by the name of GD of Big Bang".

1k a day isn't that much :/

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

It's a LOT in Korea this much after the release date.

[marslover13.livejournal.com]

lol I know it isn't overall, but considering that it's just a minialbum thats been out for a while now and that S.Korea is the capital of illegal downloading, I'd say 1k a day isn't a number to laugh at.

I regret not buying their album when I was in L.A. D: I really need to just order it on-line (especially since I got paid today woot!)

[missatira.livejournal.com]

thank yoouuu. oh they should sell 50,000 by the end of august. good deal. its weird how little korean artists sell in comparison to american artists in the US. granted, america has more people, but still.

[hater-traitor.livejournal.com]

[no-genre.livejournal.com]

I'm happy for 2NE1 as in addition to record sales their fanbase seems to be also still growing rather steadily (their Daum fan cafe had July 26th 66,274 members while now it has gone up to 72,675 members).

I was really surprised that they won so many awards since they're newcomers after all but they definitely deserve it.

Their hair is so shiny in that pic D:
