i thought it was pretty good
but i was expecting more? idk..
the vocals were okay, but they’re newbies, they’ll improve

eh i thought it was okay, expecting a bit more? but great job anyways!

second? D:

FIRST!!!!

but thats cool!

aw, third XDD, but it seems interesting. good luck to them

bleh…their debut was overrated..it wan’t even good…and they’re so far from big bang…
sandara was…why is she even there? to cry?

woah,.

vocals were alright
but as #1 said, they’re newbies, they’ll get better with time

That was a pretty good perf. Interesting…

Alright…i am sold…..they are DOPE….that was pretty good….and i am digging this group…at first i was reluctant that they can match up to the hype…but i guess they matched it pretty well…if not exceed it…i’m liking this group…great job YG entertainment for bringing this girl group that is not focusing on being CUTESY and all….

they’re pretty good. I guess they’ll be better as they’ll perform in multiple other shows.

Lol.
That was fast! :]
Just watched it live on Inkigayo XD

i can’t lie. they’re vocals were not good. especially parkbom + dara.
but who cares. i love this group! and I KNOW that they will improve in the future and be better than snsd, wg, kara.
2ne1 is so much better than those other snobby girl groups.

COOOL!!
2NE1 rocks!!! xDD

not bad for the FIRST live ever!!
they’re newbie, they’ll improved each day

I thought it was pretty good, but the song gets kinda old. Plus, if they didnt have big bang to promote them, I dont think they would go too far.

But the comeback stage was pretty darn good.

voals wasn’t as impressive as i thought it would be.
but it ws pretty cool. ^^
the starting video was pretty cool. ^^
i can’t wait to hear more from this group. (:

That was a pretty good performance, but I was expecting more from Dara.
btw here’s a HQ version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Fu7WU4Zgdg

I think they did pretty good for their debut performance.
I can’t be too harsh or too judgmental for their first performance.
It was good.
 
It wasn’t horrible as I worried it might be.
 
But Sandara needs to sing LOUDER, so the background vocals doesn’t cover her.

i think it can be better..
but i really love CL’s part
also..
Dara is really pretty!

It wasn’t a bad performance, but it wasn’t amazing either.  I thought their vocals weren’t as strong as they could be but they’ll improve with time.  I guess I just had high expectations.

lol we put this up so fast the qualit is still bad on the video!!
Minji…is a fucking killer man. She should be the leader lol
————————————————-
I think I expected a little more from the performance..i mean they really brought the fire but i think i might of expected more from the stage…maybe an explosion or something lol

Interesting.. Wasn’t a big fan of Sandara even when she was here in the Philippines but I wish all the best for her group..
Not sure if their performance was worth all the hype.. Kinda disappointing..
On the other hand.. SUJU!! Love their new song… hope they’ll sweep all the awards again! SUJU hwaiting!!! <333

i like the fan chant
but i dont like their live the dont even sing their chorus part
dont wanna admit but it disappointed me it doesn’t deserve all of this mother facker big hype but still this is their first time
so maybe they’ll improve *sigh*

AMAZING, definitely a female group to look out for in 2009. cant wait to see more of 2ne1! ^^

This was a great debut performance. The “good” and “great” performers kind of shocked me though. Minji (who has little to no experience on stage) and Bom (who is pretty awkward) dominated in this performance, but everyone did pretty good overall.
I love Minji in the intro, looking like she’s about to kill everyone lmao
They’re newbies, so they’ll get better. I love this group haha.

grool

I was kind of expecting better vocals.. ill wait for the hq and future performances..

OMG 2NE1 ROCKS
SNSD AND WG HAVE COMPETITION NOW
HAHAHAH
YGLADIES.COM
FOR ALL UR 2NE1 NEEDS :D

THEY WERE ALL WONDERFUL~

Anyone who voted for the last one (“it sucked..”) is just completely in denial and is totally hating because it didn’t suck.
You don’t have to think it’s amazing, but it certainly didn’t suck.
 
I’ve heard worse debut performances, I’m sure YOU have heard worse debut performances,
this one isn’t one of them.

they all look too nervous to be the female version of big bang.. except CL but especially park bom. But I guess its cauz its their first time, hopefully they get better because a LOT of fans are expecting them to. The beginning was pretty good, with the intro.

it was EPIC!!!!!!!!!

hoping for q better performance in the future,

it was ... COOL!

Park Bom was terrible tonight. She sounded so amazing on her practice videos, features, and audition, so hopefully it was just the nerves. Anyway CL was perfect, Gong Minji was great, and you couldn’t even hear Sandara. Don’t know if that’s because of malfunctioning mics again. It definitely had an attitude normal rookies don’t bring.

I’m annoyed that the MR was so bloody loud though.

...i think i like SNSD and WG style better..

That was pretty hot. o_o~

I felt like the back up vocals were playing a bigger part than the actual girls’ voices, but I’m still pretty much all over this group. I mean, not everyone can be like last years’ top rookie, SHINee, and put out a performance that would shame older artists. Good enough. I was expecting more, but I’m satisfied because I think that means they’ve got room to grow, and growth is always a good thing.

dude omg that was awesome! they did pretty well for a debut performance. CL and Minji did not disappoint. damn Minji in the intro was siiiiiick. her expression killed me lol Park Bom was a little off but it was still good. Sandara needs to sing louder cause you cant hear her at times. the overall perf was dope. i love 2NE1! they’ll def improve in the long run. there’s a possibility that they’ll surpass other girl groups imo. 2NE1 FIGHTING!!!

they look like they were lip-syncing .......

everyone saying the WG and SNSD has competition is totally wrong.. this is only the beginning of 2NE1s career, and they only have a lot of fans because of BIG BANG. Plus, WG and 2ne1 are friends (well CL n Sohee are), plus I think before 2ne1 can come close to WG they have to pass SNSD which will take some time.

Overall i think there first stage was pretty good for their first time.. though Bom didn’t really shine and she looked a bit nervous but i think CL did pretty good. and i cant even HEAR dara singing.. only the background music. But Minji did pretty good for her to be born in 1994

By the way the video you just updated the post with fails.

guys you gotta admit it was pretty hawtt! the intro was sick, minji with her crazy stare and dara with the fan, bom with the scarf and cl with the chair man I was completely 2ne1-fied just watching the intro.

About the performance, I think they did fantabulous!
HOTTEST DEBUT OF THE YEAR!

All i gotta say is
MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI
MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI
MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI
MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI MINJI

Gosh i love her~

minji rocked and owned the whole perf… it was good overall, not particularly impressed

dear poopiness,

2NE1 is NOT YG’s first girl group. u can get off to these dykes for all i care but at least get your facts right as a writer.

strip 2NE1 of the YG status, all that cash splashed onto them and all you get is just another girl group.

Dear YG, congratulations on your gimmicks tactic to distract your “YG evangelists” into believing you have one heck of a girl group when truth is, they’re just ANOTHER girl group.

Seriously, I believed they could have done a lot better, or that was maybe all they could bring.
The hype over this group annoyed me to ends, because I saw nothing but a group that lived only because they were considered ‘Female Big Bang’.
CL, she gave me a GD vibe, which I hated. I like groups with different personalities and vibes, but if one group has something similar, it throws me off.
Dara, her voice was under the radar here. I expected more than just small vocals hidden under large digitalized track music.
Bom, her vocals sound better in the song, but that might be nervousness, I should wait.
Minzy, she should be the only one who I haven’t found something to dislike. She just looked so fierce and fitted right into the concept. Yes, vocals are one thing, but she showed a nice performance tonight.

@42 lmao i was going to say the same thing. majoooor lag

AWESOME perormance ... 2ne1 Rockzzz

Minji is killin’ it <3
I can’t believe she’s 2 years younger than me.
I absolutely adore her.
She should just team up with CL because I think they’d make a fierce duo.
Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the other two.
Something was off about Park Bom and Sandara here.
Although she’s deemed the lead vocal, Park Bom sounded like she was suffocating.
Sandara’s voice was hardly audible because of the background music and her dance intro was less-than-stellar.
Overall, though, they did well on their first live perf.
I’m anxiously awaiting for their next one.
Fan chants were louder than I expected too.
I hope they continue receive more support and only improve from hereon.
