The Ace Queens are back! Kpop 2^nd generation elites, 2NE1, is making their sensational comeback very soon with the “2024 2NE1 CONCERT [WELCOME BACK] IN SEOUL.” But still, will they eventually be able to save YG Entertainment from this imminent crisis in the end? After all, it seems that YG is extremely desperate this time. Let’s dive deeper into the story below.

2NE1 Returns with 2024 Comeback Concert in Seoul

2^nd generation Kpop elite girl group, 2NE1, has confirmed to make a comeback in the 2024 grand concert in Seoul.

On July 25, 2NE1’s agency, YG Entertainment, officially announced the group’s return on their social media. According to the announcement, the group would be holding a solo concert, the “2024 2NE1 CONCERT [WELCOME BACK] IN SEOUL.” The concert will occur on October 5 and 6 at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul.

According to the announcement, the concert’s title, “WELCOME BACK,” represents the sentiment of welcoming 2NE1 back together with their fans, BLACKJACK. After all, this 2024 comeback will be the very first solo concert of 2NE1 since YG abruptly disbanded the group in 2016

However, since their surprise performance at the 2022 Coachella, 2NE1 has proven their everlasting domination in the Kpop music industry, leaving a lasting impression on the global stage. Hence, ticket reservations have already been heating up even when it’s barely hours since YG announced the concert.

Starting with this comeback concert, 2NE1 will commence its 2024 global tour schedule, aiming to meet as many fans as possible worldwide until next year.

For now, the general ticket reservations for “2024 2NE1 CONCERT [WELCOME BACK] IN SEOUL” will be available on Interpark Tickets starting from 8 PM KST on August 5. There will be no separate pre-sale, and if you need more details, you can visit YG’s official website.

Will They Save YG Entertainment in the End?

Following 2NE1’s comeback confirmation, for the very first time, YG finally manages 3 active girl groups from different generations: 2NE1, BLACKPINK, and BABYMONSTER. While this may be exciting for some fans, there have also been special concerns regarding the well-being of the company.

Previously, reports revealed that YG’s operating profit for the second quarter of this year has showcased a staggering 98.9% decrease compared to the same period last year. And everything was because of the unpredictable absence of all the company’s leading groups: BIGBANG and BLACKPINK.

Since the gap left by both groups was too big to fill for the latest rookie, BABYMONSTER, YG Entertainment decided to turn to the artists they once discarded, 2NE1. This move is seen as a desperate attempt to overcome their current slump.

Now, the question is, will 2NE1 be able to singlehandedly save the company in the end?

Indeed, the upcoming comeback concert will not only be full of anticipation but also pressure for the group. Fortunately, most of the 2NE1 members, especially CL, have showcased promising global domination. Therefore, hopefully, 2NE1 will be able to lay a significant groundwork for the company’s rebound.
