Many fans may know that before she joined 2NE1, Sandara Park had another career in the Philippines. Before she made her debut in Korea, old racy photos surfaced onto the net as her unfortunate past came back to haunt her. Now after four long years, she finally speaks out about the event. In a recent interview she said,

"I had the photoshoot because I wanted to show a brand new side of myself. To my knowledge, it was just supposed to be along the lines of a top and a skirt."

"When I arrived on set, they had prepared a bikini photoshoot. I had to work in the Philippines without a manager so there were many cases where I was tricked. And truthfully, I had no guarantees for the photoshoot. People used to think 'she must have done it because she desperately needed money' and such things made me really sad."
