2NE1 comeback in 2017? (Photo : Twitter)
2NE1 comeback is reportedly happening, but not anytime soon as the remaining three members and YG Entertainment want to give way for Minzy to launch her career as a solo artist.
While 2NE1's CL and Dara are still busy with their solo projects, the trio allegedly felt guilty for hindering Minzy's career growth. Minzy is a young artist that has an immense talent and a strong desire to perform on stage. However, she cannot show off her talent when the group is in hiatus. Moreover, it seemed that her career was left in the back burner while YG catapults the careers of the two other members. This yielded to frustration to the maknae of the group.
Gong Minzy has decided to leave the group in April to launch her solo career. She signed to Music Works entertainment agency. While the label did not reveal the exact date of Minzy's debut as a solo artist, rumors claimed that Minzy will release a single next month.
According to SBS.com.au, a representative from the agency told Nate that Minzy was currently trying to decide on her solo debut concept. Moreover, the agency is not putting a deadline on Minzy's final word, so that she can make the right choice.
"We are currently requesting songs from composers and musicians, and working hard to find Minzy's own colour. There isn't one exclusive, and we are looking at everything from dance, ballad and such," the rep said.
Minzy's departure is reportedly due to lack of solo activities during the hiatus. The 2NE1 maknae reportedly want to focus on other things. Minzy was 16 when she debuted under YG.
Meanwhile, YG Entertainment is reportedly laying the groundwork for 2NE1's much awaited comeback. Park Bom is slowly reentering the industry starting her way in social media. She made a new Instagram account and is testing the reactions of netizens who once criticized her for her drug scandal.
