2NE1 Offstage For MBC Radio
Come to the show everybody, it's 2NE1!
2NE1, finally gathering up the courage to perform away from their cozy home at SBS Inkigayo, put on a show for MBC PKL Starry Night Radio. They sang three songs: their own hit "Fire," Rihanna's "Umbrella," and Big Bang's "We Belong Together," which features 2NE1's own Park Bom.

Fire
Maknae Minji still does those signature chest thrusts even when there is no audience. I guess it becomes instinctual after practicing again and again.
Umbrella by Rihanna ft. Jay-Z
How bout C.L. playing the part of Jay-Z? These performances really display the leader's natural charisma that attracted so many fans even before her debut.
We Belong Together by Big Bang ft. Park Bom
The so-called "Female Big Bang" covers their male counterparts, with a new wrinkle - Minji's rapping. 2NE1 fans should prepare themselves for many more BB covers, though if they're as sharp as this one, hooray!
The fun-loving atmosphere gives fans a better look at 2NE1's personality, which is hard to glimpse when they're strutting their stuff on the music shows. With the radio-show setting, you could really hear the member's vocals, and it's clear that they can all sing capably at the very least (Park Bom is especially bombin'). Hopefully they can get over their rookie jitters and put on a vocal performance on the Banks/Cores/Inkigayos that matches what they did here. Though, I suppose it's a lot easier to sing well when you're not expounding so much energy jiving about on stage. Hope to see more from this female foursome, as they seem to have outgoing personalities that will please current fans and convert potential ones.
Kudos to mia for the tip and YGL for the images.
.. start to change my perspective toward 2NE1, their voice isn’t average
