The conclusion of group 2NE1's highly successful Asia tour in Macau saw PARK BOM once again at the center of controversy due to her onstage behavior.
Sandara Park shared a video from the Macau show on her social media, capturing a moment where PARK BOM appeared less engaged compared to her bandmates, sparking concerns about her perceived lack of stage presence among fans.
This incident comes after PARK BOM's absence from an SNS live broadcast following a show in Vietnam, leading to speculations about her commitment to the group. Fans even went as far as demanding her exclusion from future 2NE1 activities in an official statement released on February 15th.
Critics pointed out that PARK BOM's actions not only disappoint the fans but also undermine the unity of the group. They expressed worries that her behavior may jeopardize the group's harmony and support base.
The controversies were further fueled by PARK BOM's playful reference to actor Lee Min-ho as "my husband," a statement that was later clarified as a joke. Representatives for Lee Min-ho also denied any personal connection to the singer.
As the spotlight shifts to how PARK BOM's conduct may affect 2NE1's upcoming activities, fans are eager to witness whether she will address the criticisms and show a more dedicated approach on stage.
With 2NE1 gearing up for their Seoul encore concert in April, fans hope for a smoother journey ahead as the group celebrates their 15th anniversary since debut and aims to deliver unforgettable performances.
